I'd be tempted by a Fireraptor or Sicaron, which could be horrible at 750-1000 Pts but not that bad at 1250+.
Also thinking of adding 2 max limit on Forgeworld stuff?
Whats others thoughts on this?
Sound fair?
Sounds fair to me! Both the Sicaran & Fire Raptor are really nasty - but will be countered fairly easily at that points bracket.
The only FW I intend to bring are a Malanthrope and a Dimachaeron. The Malanthrope is more of a defensive/buffing unit so won't make much of a difference, but the Dimachaeron would be a real issue below the points bracket. I hadn't intended to drop him in until around then anyways, so doesn't bother me :-)
The max of two sounds good, prevents twin Kheres Contemptor Mortis dreads from being spammed alongside nasty tanks like the Sicaran. Cheers for feedback Dan, sounds similar to my thoughts.

I have 7 or 8 options for each stage planned out depending on what works and what doesn't... My phone battery graph has Battlescribe at the top of the list at the moment! :-P
