3 Spartans in total, one with tac squad and Khârn, one with tac squad and angron. 10 butchers in another which yes is overkill, but generally they overkill anyway and are left in the open, better to have more bodies to soak up the damage besides, I :cussing love them.

 

Dreads for AA and the scorpions just because, seen them used and think it could be fun to have but deco up for other options for my last heavy. I do have a venator but really don't see what all the fuss is about with them so I've dropped it

 

I really like terminators and though a unit with fists and plas in a pod offers me a little more flexibility and can be my can opener unit ripping those Spartans in 2.

 

Jetbikes are my nip about unit to hit armour in the backfield or holdup units. Also toying with the idea of dropping them down to 3 and adding a preator/paragon in instead, thoughts?

 

Khârn as been a beast for me, but without gore child wondering if he is actually worth having and weather a plasma/paragon preator is a better option for the tac squad

 

Nice, simple, brutal list that is all about combat with a few support units to cover other bases. One thing that does scare me is flyers. Played a couple of lightning fighters last night and they rapped my Spartans. De redo instead of scorpios is a possibility.

 

Grav is another thing I am contemplating. Either in the form of dreads or artillery units but in either case I would have to drop other units

 

Sorry it's a bit wordy, but really looking to get some opinions from more experienced veterans!
