This comes in at 1997 points. I'm not 100% happy with it, but I do have all the minis for it (not counting the turrest for the Razorbacks, when will someone make a decent turret for the las/plas).
The original list had 2 Rhinos and 2 RBs. The idea was to have the LRC charging forward with the Rhino/RBs moving 6 inches and the RBs shooting the las/plas and the Rune Priests shooting their psychic powers out the top. Now I've got the same idea, but the only one Rhino.
I figure three of the four WGs will go with the GHs and the fourth with go with the scouts.
Scouts pop in on turn 2+ and either pop some armor with the melta/PF or charge someone to tie them up.
I am hoping between the Long Fangs, RBs and MM/AssCan on the LRC I'll have enough anti-armor. I will have an issue with armor 14, but who doesn't?
The rhino-less 10 man GH squad is my "death star" unit. It will put the Wolf Lord and one of the Rune Priests in that unit. So if the LRC delivers them, I'll get 27 S4 attacks, 3-7 S4 rending attacks, 4 S4 force weapon attacks, and 6 S5 power weapon attacks on the charge. Assuming the LRC don't blow up in route.
Any thoughts?
Holy crap... That would completely chew through my IG Mech list....
Really? I would have thought the IG would take it apart. I think it would come down to the first turn of shooting. If I got lucky and stopped you from dropping some pie plates either from distruction or even shaking, I would do well.
However, I think if you got lucky and took out my Rhinos/Razorbacks early, I'd be f'ed.
