Hi guys, so got a doubles tournament coming up in August and decided on Raven Guard, my partner is taking Salamanders. Obviously I have no control over what my partner takes, however it looks solid: Praetor, Cataphractii Armour, Paragon Blade, Dragon Scale Shield 5 Firedrakes 2 x 10 man tacticals Spartan 2 x Predator - melta turret, flame sponsons. My list looks like this currently: ROW: Decapitation Strike + Alvarex Maun - Cameoline -145pts + Contemptor-Cortus - Dreadnought Chainfist, Close combat weapon, 2 x grav guns - 175pts + Mor Deythan - Artificer Armour on Shade, 5 x combi weapon - flamers?, Rhino - dozer blade - 220pts + 2 x Tactical Squad - 10 man, Artificer Armour, Power sword, vexilla - 330pts (165pts each) + Anvillus Dreadclaw - 115pts + Seeker Squad - 10 man, Artificer Armour - 265pts + Fire Raptor Gunship - Armoured Ceramite, Reaper Auto Cannons, Hellstrike Missiles - 250pts Total: 1500pts The plan was for Maun to join the seekers and infiltrate somewhere with good vantage points. 2 Tacticals to infiltrate into cover near objectives to either claim them first turn or wait out/provide fire support. The Contemptor drops in the anvillus first turn, flat outs to cover near one of my opponents big tanks or a priority target. Mor Deythan infiltrate, scout in their rhino, move 6", disembark 6" and use fatal strike to unload 5 twin linked, rending flamers at something first turn Seekers to unload AP2 on any terminators etc Dreadclaw drops the Contemptor 2nd turn to go eat a tank of tie up a difficult unitwhile other elements move into position. Fire raptor comes in 2nd turn (re rollable 3+) and starts smoking tanks and power armour. All this hopefully alongside the inevitable advance of the Salamanders where hopefully (if our opponent is smart) they'll be chucking a lot of firepower at the Spartan. With the option to re roll the dice to see who deploys first/ goes first and a re roll to seize the initative, should cause some havoc across the board as a lot of moving parts and differing target priority. Let me know any opinions Cheers
