This list is written with the intention of fighting in the air with other similar flyers. Thoughts and feelings?

Why take the avenger over the thunderbolt?

#

The thunderbolt just seems better

errant sigil
#

have avengers

hallow fjord
#

Damn

#

Rip

errant sigil
#

i like em

hallow fjord
#

Yeah but thunderbolts are cooler

#

Anyways, augury scanners

#

Get them

#

Your recons will struggle at night

errant sigil
#

that was the plan but i can't shed any points

hallow fjord
#

Also give your land raider searchlights

errant sigil
#

this list is a bit of a tight one

#

trust me I'd love scanners and searchlights

hallow fjord

#

could lose the apothecary?

hallow fjord
#

Bam easy peasy

hallow fjord
#

The command squad won't suffer too much if they lose a single thunder hammer

errant sigil
#

you'd better be right lol

hallow fjord
#

Besides, losing a dude to shooting or higher initiative can happen. So it's good practice to not go all out with hammers

hallow fjord
#

DA got em

#

BA

#

SoH

#

Custodes

errant sigil
#

i suppose a 4 man squad will be okay

hallow fjord
#

No I mean don't upgrade to a hammer

#

Just basic power weapon

errant sigil
#

but he's armed with that

hallow fjord
#

Build a new guy thenloldog

#

Or just run 4 dudes, I won't judge

errant sigil
#

my cata command squad is a kitbash that won't work

hallow fjord
#

Wait wtf volkite destroyers????

#

Why????

errant sigil
#

yknow how forgeworld built the gorgons?

errant sigil

#

Fun is disintegrator

errant sigil
#

making back line infantry's lives living hell then meltabombing tanks

hallow fjord
#

Also to be more honest, you already have a source of anti infantry shooting in the HSS. The destroyers are just pulling double duty, but more expensive

errant sigil
#

i do also have a bolt pistol squad

hallow fjord
#

Disintegrators and bolt pistols keeps it cheap, and let's you pester elites with ID weapons

errant sigil
#

my BP squad does also have the rad missiles

#

(and also looks cooler)

#

brings them down to 330pts

#

now

#

you reckon it would be worth putting the targeting array on the dread?

#

might ruin the fun of the list actually

#

ooo fucking hell I forgot to put the lascannons on the sicaran

fathom current
#

With 3 flyers and a termite in reserves, consider swapping out your armistos for a master of signals. He'll smooth out your reserve rolls and give night fight/augury scanner to something (probs the hss?). And yeah search lights on your tanks. Night fighting will ruin your day atm

errant sigil
#

good idea

#

now I'm 5pts over, might lose the SL on the land raider since it's going to be on the front of the assault anyway

#

will be wanting to soften up immediate threats to it's cargo on the turns where night fighting might be in effect (most of the time me and my opponents don't bother with it anyway)

Have you thought about running recon company? Going first will be a huge advantage in preventing an enemy defence from your reserves, a master of signals or Explorator would also give you a better guarantee on both your aircraft arriving together.

#

all the recons i have are one squad of 5

arctic flame
#

rip

errant sigil
#

i do want seekers tho

arctic flame
#

seekers go hard. shame your're limited on FA with your aircraft
