Bastion List

Hi folks,

Getting back into 40k after about 6 years out. I had been experimenting with wych heavy armies (harking back to the golden era when my Wych-cult army was almost unstoppable...ish), however I'm looking to try and build something a little more competitive.

I'd be interested to know people's thoughts on the Bastion in a DE list.

I like the idea of taking it:
1 for the skyfire (until some decent Eldar allies can do this for us)
2 for the cover it will provide my transports
3 for the safe home it will give my dark lance trueborn

However, I'm slightly concerned that people may simply assault the Trueborn on top with jump troops and then use my own icarus against me...

Any experience / advice on this would be great (as well as general comments).

Haemonculus probably sits with the 20 man blob to give them FNP.

Thanks.
