JJ's Adeptus Custodes List Development

[jjakaalbinoboy]

Because I want to at least be eligible for best in faction, I have to have a Custodes Warlord. Looked at going pure Custodes but I reckon this might be best:

++ Battalion Detachment +5CP (Imperium - Adeptus Custodes) [51 PL, 981pts] ++

++ Total: [105 PL, 1977pts] ++

I'll use the left over points for Misericordia for the Custodes. This gives me 14 CP. Spend 1 CP for 1 extra Custodes relic for another of the biker captains. The first (Warlord) has Auric Aquilis (3++) and re-rolls failed charges, second Eagle Eye (3++). Spend 1 CP for Kurovs Aquila (Get a CP per enemy strat on 5+) on the 1st company commander. Leaves me with 12 CP. Pay 1 CP to deep strike the dreadnought along with all the Allarus from the Vanugard which can deep strike for free. Pay 2 CP to give the 1st bike captain victor of the blood games. Warlord trait is Radiant Mantle (-1 to hit) Leaving me on 9 CP at the end of deployment.

Plan would be to deep strike all of vanugard detachment. Deploy guard battalion in front with custodes detachment behind.

Thoughts?
