HQ-
Astorath 220 points
Elites:
2x Sanguinary priests in PA. 1 with jump pack 125 points
Terminator Assault Squad with 3x TH/SS 2x LC
Land Raider 465 points
Chaplain w/ combi melta 100 points
Troops:
Assault Squad x10 w/ 2x meltagun and drop pod w/ Locator beacon 220 points
Assault Squad x10 w/ 2x meltagun 195 points
Death Company x10 w/ Land Raider Redeemer 440 points
Tac Squad x10 w/ Flamer and Multi-Melta in a drop pod 220 points
Fast Attack:
Baal Predator 115
Baal Predator 115
Heavy Support:
Vindicator
Dreadnought w/ MM, heavy flamer Blood Fist in Drop pod, 150 points
Basically, things drop down and hopefully blow stuff up. Chaplain rides with the DC, Astorath rides with the non drop pod assault squad. Priests ride with assault squads as well. Other things hopefully advance. Sort of looking for a pincer effect from the drop pods so the Terminators and DC can go to work. Nuts predators provide anti-infantry fire and create a distraction.
Thoughts?
Oh, I'll be using this army against Eldar. I know it's melta heavy, which won't help me against wave serpents, but if I'm lucky I'll get plenty of rear armor shots with drop pod placement.
Also, since I have priests with my assault squads, should I just drop astorath and pick up a jump reclusiarch and spend the points on a few optional upgrades, (extra armor for the vindicator, maybe.)
