the lychguard will be with the cryptek and Obyron, these guys will deep strike across the map (thanks to obyron) and hunt elite units/transports/tanks.
so does anyone think this will work?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/579243/6528413.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/579243/6528413.page GMT MCs, they hit hard. That will free up 75 points right there.

The Stormtek can ride with the Immortals in the Night Scythe for more glancing goodness.

I'm not sure you need Phaeron on the Overlord as you really don't want your warriors in assault. Dropping that will save you some points.

To gain the maximum benefit of the Res Orb+GA combo, I'd combine the warrior squads into a full 20 warrior blob.

With the points you save from swapping the LG for Spyders and dropping the Phaeron upgrade, you could add some Scarabs to munch on vehicles (and they will synergize well with the Spyders who can buff them) or a second Annihilation Barge.

I hope you find these suggestions helpful.

You can never have enough annihilation barges. I use 3.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/579243/6532734.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/579243/6532734.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/579243/6533038.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/579243/6533038.page GMT
That Overlord is fine the way he is, and that's how I run mine when not running Zahndrekh. Zahndrekh is a good alternative for 5 pts more, but he doesn't have a Warscythe and isn't a Phaeron. The Phaeron is great because your opponent is going to think he can just roll up on you, then you move up, Rapid Fire, then charge stealing his thunder. This also allows you to issue the challenge, then use the MSS from the start.

I think you should run 20 Warriors with an empty Ghost Ark for support. If you think you'll need that 3rd scoring unit, then putting 15 on the ground will work. If you switch out the Lychguard for Wraiths, then you should free up some points to keep a 5 man and still add more to the unit on the ground.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/579243/6533355.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/579243/6533355.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/579243/6533441.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/579243/6533441.page GMT
