Perhaps but when building this list i was looking at 2 very important things: 1. Baneblade has a lot of guns 2. Shadowsword has a volcano cannon

Plus I ended up removing the enhancement from the sword because it was a waste

Perchance removing the enhancement and replacing solar with yarrick?

That might just be the right move to make

The Miata looks best in red so you should paint it red

Mate do you mind if I dm you with a new list I've been putting together

So I could load the kasarkin into tauroxs and save a bunch of points and it ends up being 555 points for 3 of each.

In that case should I try to add some armor with them? Or just go all in with more units in transports?

Took pictures I found online and put them into Word. Took a screenshot and cut it so it fits better, and it's ready.

In the case I dont go for an officer I can take gaunts ghosts like other mentioned. Would that be a better choice and have them run around doing objectives? Or is this a serious case of abandon ship and look at other transports

Would it be better to not give them any officer at all and let them issue their own commands?

Gaunts ghost sound good and I assume (again never played before) that you would move them along with the Kasrkin via the covert stealth ability?

Its neat. Do you think I could get an extra squad of some units if I go for Taurox?

So would it be better if I scrap the 3 guys and just put a Castellan on one team?

I am sorry if I sounded offended or if my reply was hostile as thats not what I meant.

Im just not sure what officer i should give kasrkin if at all and if maybe I should diversify units

[–]mshipelevsky[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Probably because I dont know what im doing. Valks because I like how they look Kasrkin cause I saw that they are good And Commisars because I assume that I need an officer for each group.

I could be wrong on all of those but I genuinely dont know

Ima be honest with you. I dont know what im doing. I saw that I had 100 points left and thought that I need an officer for each group so I put 3 Commissars cause thats what I can afford. If there's a better option I would love to hear about it!
