There is a local 1850 Highlander Tournament coming up where I live and I was just looking for a little help/advice with my list(s). Just in case anyone is unfamiliar, Highlander rules state that only one unit of a particular model can be included in your army including dedicated transports. The first list is the one I am leaning towards but I also wanted to post the second one as an alternative. The idea with the second one being pretty much fielding MSU to overwhelm the opponent with targets. The tournament will be fairly objective heavy but there will most likely be a Purge the Alien round in which case the second list could really hurt me.
Anyway. Any thoughts anyone has on one list over the other or on the make up of each list individually would be appreciated. Thanks!
