				<description><![CDATA[ At 1500 you really need another troop choice, be it more warriors or kroot.<br /> <br /> The commander has a ton of guns, but why? You can only shoot two a turn, so keep it down to those. Look into signature systems, I rarely leave home without a neurochip and a jammer.<br /> <br /> Since you have warriors, consider a fireblade or ethereal.<br /> <br /> The suits should drop the support systems and focus on being cheap and shooty. Counterfire is okay if you just need to kill points, but there are better things. Again, make sure you only have 2 guns tops to shoot(or 1 <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(126);'>TL</span> system and a second gun).<br /> <br /> I assume the sides have <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(657);'>HYMP</span>'s? Trackers are OK, just expensive. Your hammerheads look just like mine. ]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ First you need more troops, 24 total firewarriors in 2 twelve man squads... break up those squads so you have 3 groups of 7... still feels a little short, we are looking for 8-9 man squads.<br /> <br /> So, drop stim injectors completely will do nothing against krak missles, melta, etc...  Drop the automated repair systems, you aren't running the ion weapons on them so even less likely to even want to use them.<br /> <br /> That alone should give you enough points for the troops.<br /> <br /> But there is more:<br /> <br /> I get that your commander is set up as a jack of all trades... but really this is just overspending for nothing.  Plus your crisis teams are set up very ackwardly.<br /> <br /> Commander<br /> <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(518);'>MP</span>, <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(268);'>CiB</span>, irid. armor, PEN<br /> <br /> Crisis x3 (plasma, Burst) x2 (plasma, AFP) x1<br /> <br /> Crisis x3 (<span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(518);'>MP</span>, Fusion) x3<br /> <br /> This is a much more stable setup and allows for way more flexability with where to put the commander... add in extra goodies as you have points left over<br /> <br /> I would suggest marker drones (or pathfinders) somehow... perhaps by dropping to x2 broadsides with <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(657);'>HYMP</span> and VT.]]></description>
