999 3 CP

 

3CP of the 9CP used and total is 999 points, not sure to blow the extra 1 point. Also, can you check if this list is legal for 9th ed.  

 

The plan is to have a 6" bubble of 3+/4++ saves and ignore up to AP-2 with 8 multi-meltas shots per turn while celestian and friends can deal with cc. I believe starting game with 4CP allows me to start the 36" multi shots to wipe out any vehicles or monsters. Having 24 multimelta shots T1 (after blowing through 4 cherubs) is devastating, though too bad can only use strategum once each turn. I think it should be enough to take down a knight T1. 

 

I decided to ignore the vehicles because I didn't want to give opponent's AT a target without 4++ saves. 

 

Confirm, that the cannoness can give retributor's re-rolls of 1s on its range damage right? I couldn't tell if attacks means just melee or also included range. 

 

Also, would a hospitaler be good in this list and if yes, what should it replace? What sacred rite should this list use?

 

Also, should cannoness get the book to get 12" aura range or go with a 9" aura range split with imagifier?
