http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/14.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net TFG so mass spamming Jetbikes, Warp Spiders, and D Weapons aren't even being considered. That being said I don't intend to roll over and die either. So here it goes:

CAD

120 Farseer- Jetbike / Spear

131 Scatbikes x3- Warlock x1 (4 total)

108 Scatbikes x4

60 Rangers x5

65 Banshees x5

90 War Walker- ML x2

Aspect Host

160 Dark Reapers x5- Exarch / ML

160 Dire Avengers x10- Exarch / PW,SS

105 Warp Spiders x5- Exarch

My opponents lists will be a bit of everything, but my guess is mainly Smurfs as that seems to be what I play against most of the time. Tiggy and Cents DP'ing are all the rage, but a massive points sink, and massed tac squads in free pods is also popular. So I'm sure you get the idea. Figure I can negate some of the grav spam by using cover, but it seems like Smurfs get to reroll everything every turn even without psychic help. So there you have it. Ideas?

It's a fragile list though, without models that can take punishment and create threat to make enemy forget about your damage dealers, and if somebody would to bring AV14 suddenly, you're screwed and would have to win game via objectives. Going into melee with anything in the list even with upgrades would also be bad idea.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/690830/8654824.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/690830/8654824.page GMT
But you look to be a little light on AV. Sure, you can scatter laser anything soft, but what’s your answer to AV13/14?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/690830/8654845.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/690830/8654845.page GMT
I'm hoping that the two MLs on the outflanking War Walker and the two shots from the ML on the Reaper Exarch will be enough to handle most things, and the Farseer's got a singing spear if needed. I guess I could try and find a way to upgrade the other four reapers to Starshot, but was really thinking the volume of shots would be better, maybe not.

With the Scatbike squads I'm definitely wanting to keep separate (not wanting to put all of my eggs in one basket.) I know keeping them apart cuts into some of my psychic blessing effectiveness, but it gives my opponent more targets to pick from, it also allows me to target more than one thing at a time, and keeping them to four models makes sure I can't be reduced below 25% (unless wiped out). So I'll always get to rally at Ld, even with just one model.

The Banshees are really what's giving me grief. The plan was to have them back-up the Dire Avengers as a QRF and to assist any friendlies that get caught in assault unintentionally. I just don't know how well they'll perform only being five models.
