Hi!

So got the new DA codex today and penned down a 2000p list. Would like some comments.
I'm not going to any tournaments so what I'm looking for is a competitive "friendly" list. The local meta is pretty mixed with xenos, IG and marines.

HQ
Belial - Sword of silence

Elites
Dreadnought - MM - Heavy flamer - Deathwing vehicle - Drop pod

Troops
Tactical Marines (5) - Plasma cannon - Rhino
Scouts (5) - Camo cloaks - Sniper rifles

Deathwing Squad (10) - Heavy flamer - Assault cannon - 2x TH/SS (+Belial)
Deathwing Squad (5) - Cyclone ML - TH/SS
Deathwing Squad (5) - Assault cannon - TH/SS

Fast Attack
Ravenwing Support Squad (2) - 2x Typhoon ML
Ravenwing Attack Squad (3 + AB) - Plasma gun - Attackbike w/ Multimelta

Heavy Support
Devastator Squad (5) - 2x ML w/flakk - Rhino

Regards!

20 fearless terminators in a 2k list is not friendly.

Seems a little schizophrenic. Rhinos for 5 man squads with heavy weapons seem like wasted points, those 2 flakk launchers probably won't cut it when someone runs dual Heldrakes on you (although having so many terminators will probably reduce the casualties from baleflamer spam.)

I'm assuming the general plan is to park the Devs in cover near the back, use the tactical squad to screen for them, rush the ravenwing into appropriate range of whatever needs to get thunder hammered and then call in the deathwing assault on turn 2 with your bikes' teleport homers.

I'd probably lose the dread, the tactical squad and the scouts, along with the devastator rhino. I'd try and cram in some more missile launchers and another bike squadron. Send the ravenwing squads full throttle towards the bad things then call in yo boy Belial to do the bad thing.

(but yeah, 20 terminators, not a friendly list... might as well go full special.)
