Get rid of all the dozer blades on the predators and take 4 missiles per sabre
Split the sabres up
if i split the sabres up i wont be able to outnumber tanks to get +1 to armour pen
You won't need it on neutron lasers
What you will need is not to lose both of them in 1 shooting attack
anything else i could add or swap around?
All the dozer blades
no
Pocket powerfists are more useful for going into ap2 and vehicles and challenges
Claws are useless
and ive already built my sergeantns
Welp
what about other units
also dont call things "useless"
unless they're truely useless
If you're night fighting you won't need the rhinos
yes i do
🤷♂️ can't help you then 😂
Well there's absolutely no reason to take armoured spearhead 😂
You can fit that list, except the master of armour in another RoW
feels like you're being antagonistic
Nope, just giving you the advice that the thread asks for! 🤣
You want to make it "better": so I've humbly submitted that advice
Otherwise there's not much point in this is there? If you only hear what you want to hear?
being told "just dont do XYZ its useless" isn't productive
I explained why in all cases
You could maybe use some more anti-terminator weaponry/units
Swap the power sword for a power axe on the delegatus
Wait if your playing with pano, then why aren't you putting those predators into the troops slot?
Pano makes armoured spearhead predator troops gain line
so my rationale is using it to patch up the worst parts of 30k is best of both worlds
Ok issue I can see. What do you do against mass deep strike lists?
Because I don't see much augury scanners
Actually, why do the apothecaries have preysight?
give it to tac squads
Ok
neat little trick
Ehhh
i can easily swap it for scannners though
I'd go for that
its just a force of habit for my terror assault lists lol
YOU GET PREYSIGHT
YOU GET PREYSIGHT
anything else i could change?
any other units?
swap units?
ect ect
hm?
I'm still not sold on combi grenades on the sergeants
Lightning claws are, fine. Not amazing, but fine
claws are nightlords
i must have them
and the combi nades are for pinning
which actually pinning something the first game i used them in
Yeah so are jump packs and I don't see anything with them

armoured spearhead
cannot take them
Not with that attitude
Anyways, if you want some secret spice. How about you give the delegatus a nemesis bolter
That's some good pinning😎
Well good for a single weapon of course
what's the point in armoured spearhead if you're not even using it?
all you've done is give your opponent free slay the warlord
I'd do the following (after dropping armoured spearhead):
Make one of the tactical squads 20-man.
Give your sabres pintle multi-meltas.
Give the delegatus literally any other weapon. Preferably a thunder hammer.
I'd also drop the upgrades on the sergeants, but it seems like you're set on giving them lightning claws
if you want pinning just take terror squads with rotor cannons or something
and I wouldn't take preysight on the dreadnought unless you have literally nothing else to spend points on, it's not useless but it feels like somewhat of a waste of points
You also need augury scanners as other people have mentioned
i was wanting to make a pacification battalion for nightlords, and it was the closest rite i could think of
guess i just need to hammer out the habit of always choosing one and start thinking if no rite is the best one
and about this, i had like 100 points left over on the original list lol
unless the rite is absolutely game-changing, you should come in with the idea of making a list, and then deciding if a rite would make it better
not a terrible pick then
oh also you won't need the delegatus even if you do run armoured spearhead, the master of armour is a MotL
