I'm your Huckleberry.

Ok. So. A new round of FAQ's hit the net yesterday (Check GW's site if you have not seen them).
I also ran into a friend at the local GW store; I am going to start going there on Mondays to get in some casual practice games, which I sorely need. (My last game was at BFS back in October 11)

Since that time, Necrons have been released and a new round of FAQ's have been issued.

How will, I, as a tournament player, change up my game?

Let's go about hammering out a list. I shall choose Mech Blood Angels.

Now. I want a list that is aggressive; My Guard are pretty passive in play and I want to change it up. I mainly play in NOVA style missions, so I will focus on having a good number of scoring units and not giving up easy kill points, while maintaining mobility.
I also need to be able to take out lots of vehicles in the AV11 - AV13 range.
(Necrons let you "spam" AV13, which is new)
Basically, I need either S9+, 2d6, or AP:1 on any weapons that can be seen as Anti-tank.
To me, Missile Launchers just don't cut it anymore.

Let's start with an HQ: Librarian (powers to be chosen later): 100 points

Next, I really want 6 scoring units.
10 Tactical Marines w/Lascannon, Meltagun, Combi-Melta
Razorback w/Lascannon and Twin-Linked Plasma Gun, Dozer Blade, Searchlight: 291
Let's grab two of these. They will always be split into combat squads. (Per the FAQ, this is less dangerous.)
5 Assault Marines w/Meltagun
Razorback w/Lascannon and Twin-Linked Plasma Gun, Dozer Blade, Searchlight: 166
We will take three of these! (and a fourth if we have points)

Let's then grab 2 Predator Destructors w/Autocannon, Lascannon Sponsons, and a Dozer Blade: 140

We will add 2 Baal Predators with FlameStorm Cannons and Dozer Blade: 120

Adding this up: 1700 Not bad. Let's keep adding stuff.
Another 5-man Assault Scoring unit and a unit of two Attack Bikes w/Multi-Meltas gets us to 1966. Let's give an Infernus Pistol to two of the Assault Squads: 1996
With the last 4 points, we can put searchlights on the remaining four vehicles.

Our list looks like this

Librarian w/Shield of Sanguinius, The Sanguine Sword
5 Assault Marines w/Meltagun
Razorback w/Lascannon and Twin-Linked Plasma Gun, Dozer Blade, Searchlight
5 Assault Marines w/Meltagun
Razorback w/Lascannon and Twin-Linked Plasma Gun, Dozer Blade, Searchlight
5 Assault Marines w/Meltagun, Infernus Pistol
Razorback w/Lascannon and Twin-Linked Plasma Gun, Dozer Blade, Searchlight
5 Assault Marines w/Meltagun, Infernus Pistol
Razorback w/Lascannon and Twin-Linked Plasma Gun, Dozer Blade, Searchlight
10 Tactical Marines w/Lascannon, Meltagun, Combi-Melta
Razorback w/Lascannon and Twin-Linked Plasma Gun, Dozer Blade, Searchlight
10 Tactical Marines w/Lascannon, Meltagun, Combi-Melta
Razorback w/Lascannon and Twin-Linked Plasma Gun, Dozer Blade, Searchlight
Baal Predator w/Flamestorm Cannon, Dozer Blade, Searchlight
Baal Predator w/Flamestorm Cannon, Dozer Blade, Searchlight
2 Attack Bikes w/2 Multi-Meltas
Predator w/Autocannon, Lascannon Sponsons, Dozer Blade, Searchlight
Predator w/Autocannon, Lascannon Sponsons, Dozer Blade, Searchlight

So, to summarize.
12 Lascannons, 12 Melta-Weapons to compete against Vehicles.
8 Scoring Units, 20 Kill Points.
Dozer Blades to maintain reliable Mobility.

I will try this out next Monday and see if it can accomplish what I want it to do.
