I think I am happy with the list, the bikes and havoks have oly been tested in 3 games.
But in general I think the list has some good answers to certain lists.
It has no lack of scorring units
4x7 plague marines +1 plaguebearers thats 5 scorring units
and
2 heavy
1 fast

The hole army is  t5 (bikes t6) and everything is with mark of nurgle to add to the tally and gain the bonuses were applied, last game  I killed mephisto with ignore armour saves missile launchers.
6 melta guns
4 plasma guns
1 plasma pistol
7 AA missile launchers split in 2 units.

You could say that mobility is probably my biggest problem. I mean appart from the rhino and bikes I don't have anything to move across the board fast. I am thinking of dropping a bikker to give the sergent biker a plasma pistol.

Unfortunantly not enough space for the landing pad/ nurgle shrine and to be honestm, not enough time to make it and paint it, as I still have to finish the models listed.

Things I am still concidering but will not change before BW4:
Should the units with 3 missile launchers + autocannon go back to 4 missile launhers?
Should I lose the bikes or havoks or both  for a helldragon(s)?

I have another game with Andy so let see how it goes...

Modeling wise all bikers have excausts, 2 bikes need wings, I have added 3 bikers to their bikes, the bikes will need another green stuff session, and today lets see how far I get with the havoks.

thanks for reading.

  1. List looks good mate.. Though it says "plasma pistols" n the plague marines.. assume you mean Plasmaguns? Mobility is definitely the only real issue, tough to get secondaries when so slow.. or for claiming mass objective missions, also you may want to look at the Missions for BW4 - the Commander is your SC. He can score in 2 missions and is worth double VPs in the other.. this will make him even higher on the target priority.. and may disadvantage you somewhat as you don't really want to be putting Epi out there to claim objectives, just want to hide him!
    Looks good though..

    On a seperate note - I couldn't get my 40k stuff in today...can't remember if we were getting a game in this week or next? If it is this week, you are going to have to grab a game against someone else.. there is always someone to play and getting some more practice in definitely worthwhile!
