2.5K Alpha Legion [PotL] [Conversion Beamers]

[v6v771]

Hi all

 

Looking for some input on the list that follows. My main question here is; Should I run 2 x 10 Effirt w/ 10 Melta bombs and 10 Daggers or 2 x 10 Veterans w/ 10 Power lances, 10 Banestrike bolters and a Rhino (bare). I'm worried its too generalist and will struggle vs dedicated assault or shooting armies. Am i missing anything I should be prepared to deal with but I am not. Is anything here woefully inefficient (I know lernaeans aren't the best, but innate line is nice).

 

I plan on requesting night fighting each game, infiltrate the lerneans onto Obj and then flank with veteran rhinos (or info/scout the Effrit). Pred Hvy Conv beamers are there to render one whole table corner a killing field and 3 Lernean beamers are for cross map shooting so they cannot be ignored.

 

My local meta is assault heavy, with a DA terminator brick army (PotL), a WB Gal Vorbak Horde (DB), a Melee BA list (Unknown Rite) and only one semi-shooting army in the mix being DG Reaping List.

If you’re really banking on the beamers, I would be worried about making sure a far-off beamer could hit threats close to another unit, which would be tricky. 
 

Might be better to set termies in good sight lanes, use contemptor and vets to try to draw enemy in and hammer threats with multiple beams in early turns.
