Ive seen the new book... and ive got some solid numbers infront of me for a fun, but potentially competitive list thats virtually nothing like the original idea.

Command
- Librarius Conclave (320)
Librarian - Level 2, Terminator Armor, Bones of Osrak - 140
Librarian - Level 2 - 90
Librarian - Level 2 - 90

Auxilliary (700)
Centurion Devastators - Grav Cannons, Hurricane Bolters - 240
Centurion Devastators - Grav Cannons, Hurricane Bolters - 240
Devastators - Heavy Bolter x4 - 110
Devastators - Heavy Bolter x4 - 110

Assault Squad - 85
Total = 1990
Not sure where id trim it down for smaller games (probably the Bolter Devs) but i like the look of it so far, with Stubborn and Reroll to hit on all Bolt Weapons. Conclave probably goes for Geomancy or Fulmination to try get their top spells to propell my Assault Centurions around the board to do their work.
