The idea is to simply Dominate with board control and spam out orders for massed FRFSRF. Basilisk do antitank w MoO for help.. Hellhounds harass and get up close. If i get into melee I get catachan strength and priest to bolter attacks. Plenty of command points for lots of stratagems.
Thoughts. I know they are guardsmen, but that is a lot of bodies. And a LOT of shots.

Harker is 20 pts. more than the Master of Ordanance but his buff is more reliable for the Basilisks as it is not dependent on range to the target.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/766242/10216736.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/766242/10216736.page GMT [2000] - Astra Militarum - 200+ Model Catachan Horde
It looks like it needs Iron Hand and another priest though.

Perhaps dropping some platoon commanders.

I wouldn’t do the master of ordinance, I would use Harker instead ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/766242/10217074.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/766242/10217074.page GMT [2000] - Astra Militarum - 200+ Model Catachan Horde

Is there any particular reason you are not taking Straken?

Points mainly. And I don't have the models. But I can get them.

Might be worth getting both, any Idea what you would drop?

Looks strong to me. How will you protect your basilisks?


Bubble wrap from charges. But only other option would be to take a pysker and use nightshroud, but its only going off on 1 model, so the enemy will just shoot the others. Just going to take the fire really.
