Vect 'Ard Boyz

looks good. i think eight is a little much for an incubi squad tho i usually run four to six of them and they do very well and considering you have vect in there its a little overkill. the lost of the phantasm is bad but oh well just choose your fight carefully. why trophies on all those raiders? there usually first to go then the troops. i say get splinter racks if you want a usefull upgrade. one thing you might want to consider is torment launchers for your ravagers they keep em alive from those damn scout squads with melta bombs. /sigh i learned the hard way..
also just go with ether night shields or flickerfield with your raiders your using up alot of points for something that dies easily...

Overall I like the list, probably would play something very similar myself - so any comments I have are minor.

The Vect and Incubi squad is for me the only area I would probably change as I think the two units do not really help each other and is definitely OTT. In my eyes, all that incubi with Vect is just overkill for what they do best, kill infantry. Vect also does nothing for the squad and the squad only offers to be a meat shield to Vect – not necessarily the most symbiotic relationship to be had, they will just chew marines in one turn and die horribly the next.

I personally would think about either wyches or bloodbrides to ride with Vect, why?

1. They all have plasma so everyone strikes at initiative
2. The squad can possibly start with a kill point
3. The squad can affect the amount of attacks back from the survivors
4. They do have a shooting attack (as little as it may seem but it’s something)
5. They tarpit better (obviously) but they leave most of the killing to Vect
6. They can have haywires – not much of a bonus but they are flexible in that regard

My biggest fear with the incubi squad is that you will kill off what charged and be stranded afterwards – kind of expensive for that.

I like the rest of the list, I do not have the same expectations for the ravagers as you do but you will at least shake or stun something with them. I would say overall you are a little low on anti-tank especially for a ‘Ard Boyz tournament.

Grumpy Kiwi nailed it on your Vectstar against most opponents your going to go straight through them and then be left smiling at all thier mates.

Left over pts. And LD reroll bubbles are nice.

I could "upgrade" of the wych units to bloodbrides. (I guess 5 scorers is enough). I would get the pts by cutting a couple incubi out and some trophies (if needed)




I could also post everything i own/will have available by tourny and making this a "build me an Ard Boyz list" type threads.
