I'd be tempted by a Fireraptor or Sicaron, which could be horrible at 750-1000 Pts but not that bad at 1250+.
Also thinking of adding 2 max limit on Forgeworld stuff?
Whats others thoughts on this?
Sound fair?
Sounds fair to me! Both the Sicaran & Fire Raptor are really nasty - but will be countered fairly easily at that points bracket.
The only FW I intend to bring are a Malanthrope and a Dimachaeron. The Malanthrope is more of a defensive/buffing unit so won't make much of a difference, but the Dimachaeron would be a real issue below the points bracket. I hadn't intended to drop him in until around then anyways, so doesn't bother me :-)
The max of two sounds good, prevents twin Kheres Contemptor Mortis dreads from being spammed alongside nasty tanks like the Sicaran.

They will be the utter bane of my Flyrant later in the league, glad there's at least a few who can't have them :-P

I have 7 or 8 options for each stage planned out depending on what works and what doesn't... My phone battery graph has Battlescribe at the top of the list at the moment! :-P
RE: 500 Pt escalation Campaign - Simian - 04-02-2015

I could lend you the 40K models to proxy as your army till your models arrive if you like?
