Ok so I am inspired to do a Crimson fist and Imperial Fist army, A sort of half half themed army. I had alot of thought about what units should go into it and knowing that Crimson Fists are limited with their Chapter being hammered so Ive gone with an elite army with no tanks.... Just a good painting challenge and possibly using it for games...

so here we go...

Lysander

Pedro Kantor

10 Tactical Marines w/ melta bombs
(Imp Fist)

10 Scouts w/ Heavy Bolter
(Crimson Fist)

10 Termies w/ power fist storm bolter
(Crimson Fist)

10 Termies w/ thunder hammer storm shield
(Imp Fist)

You need more scoring units. If you are taking Pedro then you should be taking Veterans, he's not really that good on his own and neither is his ability either. You could make a much better vanailla HQ for cheaper. Second you only have 2 units. If you're using termies and scouts then you should pay to get the teleport homer / tracking beacon / whatever on the scouts so your termies don't mishap. With only four units, if one unit reserves in late or deep strike mishaps it can really put you back. With a list like that you should be playing more Deathwing or something...

Fluff wise it wasn't that the Crimson Fists 1st company survived the destruction of their chapter keep and the invasion of Rynn's World, it's that there are more veterans, because everyone who survived is a "veteran" of the war. With the destruction of their chapter keep it is safe to assume that the Crimson Fists probably have limited access to Terminator Armor. Since each suit of Terminator Armor is already venerable and hard to come by, the C. Fists probably have next to none. Crimson Fist fluffy would be Legion of the Damned, Sternguard Veterans, Scouts, and that nature....

You could do a nice count as army using Lysander as Belial with TH & SS or SW with Lysander as Logan. Its something to consider.
