Some quick comments:
* Drop the Bloodbrides. They are just Wyches that do not score, but get shot down just as easily. You do not take Wyches or Bloodbrides for CC anymore in 6th;
* Assuming you add the Haemy to the Warrior blob, consider giving him a Hex Rifle (remove the Liquifier then), so he can shoot at stuff at range with the SCs;
* Increase the number of Wracks to 5 and add a Liquifier. Remember you can't claim objectives from within a vehicle anymore and 3 Wracks are shot down easily;
* Focus the Scourges into either AV or AI (from the rest of the list, I suggest AV);
* Add a beastmaster squad to replace the Bloodbrides for CC (3 BM, 5 Khy, 4 RF).

The Hex Rifle is smart though. Definitely taking that. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/485041/4914065.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/485041/4914065.page GMT Re:DE 1500 points, tournament worthy? AT), bladevaning(AI) or harassing, depends on how you geared them up. Just saying if you're planning to use them as assault unit, you may have to rethink.

Mandor got most everything covered, so I'll just add... 4 Trueborns, not 5, the extra body is a waste of points, won't make the unit more durable, but you've wasted points that you could spend elsewhere.

For scourges, there are 2 setups, surprisingly, 5 of them, or 10 of them. Former is great for deepstrike, MSU and harassment, it's a rather small unit(costly, but hey), they can still do their job well, since you can field 5 x 2 if you want 4 HWB(for example). Latter improves the durability only by a tiny bit(come on, T3 4+/6++, do you think they're really made to last?), the damage output on one unit is the same as 5 x 2, but you lack the flexibility to shoot at 2 different targets should the situation arise that you don't need all of those guns to finish off that unit, and now the unit is in a big enough size to draw attention from enemy. All in all, as you can tell already, I like 5 scourges MSU more than 10 scourges blob of wings, but it's all up to you if you want a slightly more durable 10 scourges unit or a more flexible 5 scourges MSU.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/485041/4915370.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/485041/4915370.page GMT Re:DE 1500 points, tournament worthy? ff on the razorwing and ns on the ravagers.
