My mate is taking the list below to the 40k doubles weekend later this year and i'm gonna be joining him. What would you take to complement this list, totally open ended except for Dark eldar, necrons and nids who are nonos on the alliances matrix.
875pt army, has to have 1 HQ, 1 Troop
Has to fit into standard FoC with the below army so (1 hq, 3 troops, 3 elites, 2 fast, 3 heavy available).
I know its a weird list, not super competitive from him but its a labour of love army for him (all old metal cadians!).
I'm thinking something all out assaulty like blood angel assault marines with sanc priests and melta a'plenty. Problem i'm having is its so hard to have to include a hq and get much out of marines at 875pts
note this is not my list, this is what my partner is taking.
