Looking for some input to see if I'm missing something obvious. Want to run a 2.5k BA list with Day of Sorrows as the rite of war.

Trying to leverage the row advantage with lots of infantry and FNP via apothecary and primus Medicae.

The primus should join the paladins, the praetor and apothecary should join the assault squad.

The tacticals can hold objectives away from most of the action.

Hoping the angels tears can offer fire support against most targets (wounding on 2+) wherever it's needed (jump pack mobility + 24" range). They seem a bit expensive, though.

The paladins need to be up front and try to engage as many targets as possible and just not die. My worry would be that they can be ignored too much and are too expensive as well.

Alternatively, I was thinking about reducing the paladins to a 5 man squad in a Proteus and buying another large assault blob with apothecary instead.

Javelin and sky hunters on cheap anti tank duty.

Honestly I'd just run it as day of Revelation with that many deep strike units

#

Or without the rite

#

The list looks ok in that respect

Id think you'd need to start from the ground up. Sorrows takes advantage of large even sized units of infantry but stops you deep striking. It favours taking apothecaries too. Jet packs are still good for getting up the board but not worth loading up on like you would if you could deep strike
