If you have a better idea, how I can improve the list Thank you.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/748054/9773012.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/748054/9773012.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/748054/9774455.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/748054/9774455.page GMT
Do you own any AM? Some cheap screening units to help prevent alpha strikes would help if that's in your meta. The vindicare is nice but I don't know how useful he'll be and a single astropath doesn't do much for psychic denial.

It occurs to me that Custodes suffer from many of the same flaws as terminators in 8th edition. The difference is a mildly better weapon skill for custodies, and an additional wound each < in return for the loss of deep strike ability.

Terminators also hit hard in melee, shoot a little (better than custodes with assault cannon or missile launcher) and have a reasonable save. the main advantage of terminators over custodes is that terminators have deep strike capability to ensure they get up close and personal; and teleport homers for a surprising burst of movement.

really the problem is that the army isn't built for 1250pts games. it's at it's most lethal in lower point games where EVERYONE has a lower model count. to bridge this gap you could be buying wounds where you can; dreadnoughts may just do the trick?

also; to further disadvantage your guards you spend 126 points on *2* models. for a lacklustre psyker and a wannabe john wick. buy more golden boys, or shuffle the points and buy another dreadnought.

-ideally; you'd drop the non custodes units and restructure. start by taking your inquisitor, and get him a twin brother. then split the remaining points on as many custodes as you can afford for 1116pts, in 3 units. if uneven the largest group takes the vexilla.

- castle up; and focus on the flank your opponent is weakest on. this is a battalion so you'll have 6CP for those important rolls, almost certainly the first turn, and the best chance of victory possible.

-never attack the centre of the line unless you want surrounding Spanish armada style.

hope this helps?
