10 x Kroot

1850pts

to be honest the main job of the Wraiths in this list (and the three wraith wing that there are a lots of at 1850) is to create carnage in mid table and kill some stuff. I see the Riptide being better at the second part, but maybe not as good as the first, which is why I haven't dropped one more wraith unit to have another Warrior/Scythe unit and a few more Kroot to improve my chances of scoring.

Interested in other people's thoughts though...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/567119/6321321.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/567119/6321321.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/567119/6322715.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/567119/6322715.page GMT
I'll say it again then, you are wasting an ungodly amount of points on a buffmander to buff a single riptide. Either cheapen him up and only take MSS+CCN or lose the concept altogether.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/567119/6324530.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/567119/6324530.page GMT

Cron air is just taking lots if transports. That's always been one way of playing.

Tournament isn't allowing it.

I like whip coils. If they allow you to slow four models or so down till after you've killed a bunch then it really improves your survivability and damage output. More noticeable if you go up against close combat opponents. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/567119/6325360.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/567119/6325360.page GMT SMS is the way to go.
