Captain Kayvaan Shrike - 195

HQ = 195

Troops

Scout Sqaud x10 (Seargant Telion) (Sniper Rifles x 8, Missile Launcher) = 200

Scout Sqaud x10 (Combat Blade x 4, Sniper Rifle x 4, Power Weapon, Missile Launcher, Camo Cloaks, Melta Bombs) = 200

Scout Sqaud x10 (Combat Blade x 4, Sniper Rifle x 4, Powerfist, Missile Launcher, Camo Cloaks) = 205

Scout Sqaud x10 (Combat Blade x 4, Sniper Rifle x 4, Powerfist, Missile Launcher, Camo Cloaks) = 205

Troops = 1015

Elites

Assault Terminators x5 (Lightning Claws x3, Thunder Hammer/ Storm Shield x 2) = 200


Elites = 200

Fast Attack

Stormtalon Gunship - 130 (Typhoon Missile Launcher) = 155

Stormtalon Gunship - 130 (Twin Linked Lascannon) 150

Stormtalon Gunship - 130

Fast Attack = 435



Total = 1845


The idea is running almost everything in from board edges and having a Stormtalon escort, Shrike Infiltrates with the Terminators, and the Snipers and missiles kick back and fire from range.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451759/4324625.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451759/4324625.page GMT 1850 C:SM Scout army.

Probably because he has no way of opening up AV 14 without the Lascannons.

With that said, from my experience with Scout armies LSS + a 5 Man Squad with a Combi Melta is awesome, Turbo Boost with the scout move, then move 12" turn 1, disembark 2", shoot the melta, if you have the points a MM on the LSS is great too.

You might not want to do that if you want to stick with the Flyers though as they are FA slots.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451759/4332323.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451759/4332323.page GMT 1850 C:SM Scout army. Now with fliers!

A single lascanon is nowhere near enough to deal with AV14 either. Meltas and meltabombs, like you suggested, would do this better. Getting rid of camo cloaks on 1-2 squads would give enough points for combi and/or meltabombs for every sergeant.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451759/4332569.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451759/4332569.page GMT 1850 C:SM Scout army. Now with fliers! The Talons do not bring enough antitank, you should have more.

Also I would think about more SS/TH termies and more termies anyway. You need these to work and they may not get the first turn charge that you need.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451759/4353833.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/451759/4353833.page GMT
