Adam nailed my thoughts on stream for a post-game debrief. I think if I end up doing a Deathwing army (and I still might; I love the knight and Belial models), I'll auto-include an apothecary. And probably a termie-psyker, too.

I don't think the Talonmaster is the super-unit a lot of people are saying they are. Yes, they're great against infantry and can do a bit of work in CC with those powersword attacks, but... that's a lot of points for a souped-up landspeeder, regardless of character shenannigans.

Speaking of actual super-units... Dark Reapers. They're just a great unit, hands down.
