The idea of having lots of flyers on top of an invisible deathstar is nice, but you need more reliability. With this list, a bad roll can cost you the game, even before the game actually begins. While weaker in many ways with respect to Tiggy, Sevrin Loth guaranteed you have Inivisibility, at least.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/701615/8884746.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/701615/8884746.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/701615/8884839.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/701615/8884839.page GMT ADL with comms relay. Have a unit of scouts within 2", and you can go to ground for a 2+ cover (EDIT: scratch that, Red Scorpions cannot GtG) until the flyers come in (consider also that, with the Death From the Skies rules, if the enemy has no flyers your Reserves come in on a 2+). Or, scrounge 25 points from somewhere else, and get an Imperial Bastion instead of ADL (with comms relay, of course). Greater protection for centurions on turn 1, and you even have a few heavy bolters to boot (remember that if you modify the model or build it from scratch, you can, LEGALLY, place all 4 of them on one facing).

Also, Loth is pretty good in a deathstar, not only for the guaranteed invisibility, but also because of the 2+ invulnerable save. This ensures that even if something hits you (on snap shots), it will not do any damage. Yes, it costs a warp charge, but you only really need to cast invisibility (psychic shriek is nice but not needed). Oh, he is Fearless too, has a better weapon than Tiggy, and 1 more Attack. Yes, he only has 2 Wounds, but if he gets wounded at all you are doing it wrong.

(also, yellow and grey looks cooler than smurfy blue )]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/701615/8884902.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/701615/8884902.page GMT LGS doesn't allow death from the skies rules, and also, the terminators don't need reserve manipulation, they automatically come in turn 1 via nemesis strike force rules. But I'm going to work up a version of the same list with Sevrin instead. Try them both out.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/701615/8885320.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/701615/8885320.page GMT
Considering you're going to be having to make a lot of 4+ saves...

Give scout sergeants combi-weapons.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/701615/8885344.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/701615/8885344.page GMT

Terminators don't arrive automatically, though: the rules for Nemesis Strike Force allow them to Deep Strike on turn 1, but it's still a 3+ Reserve roll. You just get to do it from turn 1 instead of turn 2. Comms relay makes it much more reliable, but you still have to roll.

I think the last list is better than the original one, it seems much more reliable. All you lost is a ML on the Libby, if I am not mistaken, and some scouts (which are a tax anyway), but you got a bastion (and potentially more heavy bolters than you had before), which helps you greatly.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/701615/8886302.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/701615/8886302.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/701615/8886409.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/701615/8886409.page GMT
