The Eradication beamers march up front to put some pressure on, the Neutrons camp toward the back granting cover to my sky fire machines. The Dragoons trot around mid field looking for targets and the troops move in to cap and pepper whatever's around. The blob will be my HQ.

It's got lots of pie plates, lots of damage output, a high probability to drop flyers, it's fairly mobile, has just a pinch of stabby, and has some durability in the Onagar bricks that can't really be ignored. Plus, it's got a bunch of cool models!

Please, butcher it. Let me know what you think.

Thanks!

Dragoons might be the best unit in the codex and are great in units of three, just watch out for those transferring penetrating hits.

Consider a unit or two of Infiltrators; they're also good.

And if you swap in a unit of Rustalkers and a unit of Rangers, you'll have variety and be that much closer to a War Convocation some day.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/711176/9080046.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/711176/9080046.page GMT
12*(2/3)*(2/6)*(1/3)*(4/6)=0.5926
12 shots, 2/3 hit, 2 sixes expected out of 6 shots, 3+ armor, 5+ FNP

3*(2/3)*(2/6)*(2/3)*(4/6)=0.2963
3 shots, 2/3 hit, 2 5+ wounds expected out of 6, 5++, 5+ FNP

The naked ones do more wounds point for point than plasma, but are far less vulnerable to dying with 4 guys to die.

Also, I think every competitive solo Skitarri list is going to have at least two 15 man squads of Peltasts.
