Well, gearing up for the Tournament next weekend… I think I've narrowed my choice down to one of two lists:
Belial (TH/SS or LC)
4 Deathwing Squads, 2 TH/SS, 1 LC and Cyclone Missile Launcher in each. One squad w/Apothecary
DN (TLAC or Plasma/ML)
Land Speeder Typhoon (MM/TML)
Ravenwing Squadron (Attack bike w/MM, 2 Melta)
Belial (TH/SS)
3 Deathwing Squads each w/ 2 TH/SS, LC, CML, etc…
3 DNs (TLACx2, Plasma/ML, ?)
3 Land Speeder Typhoons (Multi Melta, TML)
Well, the first one has 4 troops, the Ravenwing scout, flank and have teleport homers allowing me to deep strike in with no deviation. And the Deathwing have their "Deathwing Assault" rule allowing me to bring up to half of them in on turn one like the Drop Pod Assault, but I "May" bring up to half, I do NOT have to bring them in early. So, mobile(ish) and more troops allowing me to set up in cover and hold a bit longer…
Second one is more spamish, LOTS of heavy weapons (21 so far, plus whatever the last DN brings) each turn… So, I think it can take on pretty much whatever I face… Sadly I do actually have pretty much all of it ready to roll, either way really. This second list I think really wins more by killing lots of things than by playing for the objectives, etc… But still it might be the better one for a tournament… I could also change out one of the DNs for a Whirlwind and random upgrades all around…
I'll have to look at the Escalation scenarios a bit more to see which one looks like it works better…
