agree thats its risky style of fighting and it seems to lack enough infantry but it has so far been quite effective as the fire support from the vets and hq's is potent (have to admit that have some badlly deployed oppenants though) (also found grenade launchers are highly effective against nid's) and so far in most 1500 pointer games the number of tanks faced is not been to daunting. will try include some more lascannons though as the meatshield rule is not good for both sides
The dem charges are very unpredictable, but it only takes one to deep strike on target to be within the 6" chucking range to cause real problems as no save.(or not permitted to d.s. can be held back for when things go wrong) and when it works well it is really effective
But maybe against well designed armies it will fall apart as only now starting to meet good players so experimenting with tactics. (only played about 12 games in the last couple months ) Have first tourney in 3 months and want to test out as much as possible. and need to find a balance of support fire to infantry vol. currently field 65 combat troops.
errmmm or a new army list.. anyway have a real test this week vs BT
