Finally got to play this list against Rob last night and am very happy with the core.
What i can't decide on is the troops part of it.
So list 1 gives me 4 scoring units and a lot of shooting ability at range while needing the markerlight support, where as list 2 is a ultra aggressive list with 7 scoring units, with deep striking double flamer suits.
Feedback and discussion appreciated.
