______________________________________

 

-  2.500 Pts. on the spot.

-  Skorr and  the Apothecary ride with the Tac Support in their Proteus.

-  4 scoring units.

-  4 Land Raiders.

-  Cheap but effective LoW.

-  Minimal HQ.

-  All tanks besides the LoW could potentially be scouted or infiltrated, depending on Mutable Tacs and / or Warlord Trait.

-  Ability to modify opponents reserve rolls by -1 (-2 if Skorr selects the corresponding WL Trait -> only slightly worse than the -3 possible w. CotH)

-  Potential to pin opponents with the right WL Trait, which goes well with army wide Tank Shock, -1 to LD from RoW and 'Crushing Weight' ??  (Worth it ?)
