GT List
#1
So been tweaking my list for the GT at the beginning of November...

Spiritseer – 70
5 Dire Avengers in Wave Serpent with TL Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon – 195
5 Dire Avengers in Wave Serpent with TL Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon – 195
5 Dire Avengers in Wave Serpent with TL Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon – 195
5 Fire Dragons in Wave Serpent with TL Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon – 240
5 Fire Dragons in Wave Serpent with TL Scatter Laser, Shuriken Cannon – 240
1 Hornet – 2 Pulse Lasers – 80
1 Hornet – 2 Pulse Lasers – 80
Nightspinner – 115
Wraithknight – 240
Total: 1650pts

What do you guys think?

Can anyone think of a better way to spend 115pts? (Nightspinner isn't that great)

Alternatives I can think of:

Swapping Autarch with Fusion gun and Chainsword for Spiritseer (13pts) and a unit of 6 Swooping Hawks (96pts) leaves me with 6pts I cannot spend.

Again Autarch for Spiritseer (13), 3 Shadow Weavers (90), 2 Ghostwalk Mantles on the Fire Dragons Serpents (20)

Swapping a unit of Dire Avengers to Wraithguard (100pts) and then adding a Ghostwalk to a Serpent (10)

Or something else or keep as is, what do you guys think?

I won't get much mileage out of a Farseer, as he cannot buff from inside a transport, once on foot it would be nice to twin-link both fire dragon units.

Another option I was thinking about is a unit of 6 Warp Spiders for 114pts...

Complete garbage mate! I doubt you'll win a game with that nonsense!! Unless you play me of course, you'll probably smash my face in!! Haha

Joking aside I really like the list! Personally I'd go with the warp spiders purely for the annoyance factor!

They look pretty cool Rob! What made you go with Pulse Lasers instead of Bright Lances?

Each hornet with 2 pulse lasers will fire 4 48" S8 AP2 shots.

Compared to a hornet with 2 bright lances fires 2 36" S8 AP2 shots with lance.

With both being the same price in points, i know which i would go with..... Tongue
40k- Space marines(5000 pts) Imperial guard (3000 pts) Tau (3000 pts)
Epic 40k-Space marines/Imperial Guard(2000 pts)
Infinity Yu jing (Aprox 1000 pts)
Necromunda Escher Mad capsules Avalanche
Blood bowl Skaven

Yeah I see your point but those Bright Lances would be better against AV14 than those Pulse Lasers.

2 Shots needing 4's to Glance, 5's to Pen vs. 4 shots needing 6's to Glance and no chance of a Pen.
