You know i was gonna lash out at you guys for not helping me make this work but its ok.
Ill try again

anyone who has any suggestions to strengthing this list please chime in dont let the naysayers rule the forums. (although i bet if i asked help on running a razorback spam or lash/oblit list oh then you would have had a treasure trove of useful advise.)

I need help on a list and i can't very well ask for help on a list that does not exist so i posted something as a base starting point. i am aware that this list is not perfect other wise i would not have asked for help. you dig. (and who asks for help on a fully functional competative list anyway)

so before you just say something like " that list is shit it wont work" why not add "but drop this and this and it will give you enough points for this and this oh and instead of this do this." ( incase you did not know that usually how to respond when someone asks for help on an army list)

Fair enough , however i did not think this list was awesome, and what ever i said about cheese and all that it was only because you say the word land raider and people groan, i just wanted to know if it could be made a viable list

what i was hoping for was this kind of response.

"Think about it, you banking souly on your LRs. What happens when they get popped? you have 22 guys who will die like dogs very fast when standing up against a more balanced list. The only way i could see to counter that would be to drop a libby (in the 1500pt list) and a assualt squad. Beef up your assault squad numbers and get some sang priests in there to help out the assualt units. They will need those buffs to get off an effective assault out of the LR."

thats all i was hoping for was some guys on my side with suggestions. Obviously i could have worded the first post better as the kind of responce it got was exactly what i did not want so I am really sorry for stirring you guys up.

So here is the revised. and if you guys forgive my error please try again as i won't whine like a little b*tch this time

1500/1500
HQ: (100) Librarian- Sanguine Sword and Shield of Sanguinius

Elites: (165) Sanguinary priests x 3 Melta bombs x 3

Troops: (411) Assault Squad(x7)- Power Fist, Land Raider
Troops: (411) Assault Squad(x7)- Power Fist, Land Raider
Troops: (411) Assault Squad(x7)- Power Fist, Land Raider

a little more shooty and a little more teeth in hand to hand. oh and this list comes in at 1498 points (I guess its still considered spam as it has more that two LR.)(I was under the impression that 2 is redundancy and 3+ is spam right? )

Land Raiders ehh I would suggest not going completly Land Raider spam maybe going half and half with Razorbacks a buddy of mine does the mix and he wins tournament all the time of course he plays Vanhilla vulkan but blood angles can do it better.because of discounted transports.

Try Something Like this:

Librarian-Blood Lance,the sanguine sword 100
Reclusiarch-130

2 Sanguinary Priests-Lighting claw 130

5 Termiantor Assault Squad-3 Lighting Claws,2 hammers 200
Land Raider Redeemer-Extra Armour 255
5 Terminator Assault Squad-3 Lighting Claws,2 hammers 200
Land Raider Redeemer-Extra Armour 255

Assault Squad-100
Razorback-Las/Plas 55
Assault Squad-100
Razorback-Las/Plas 55
5 Death Company-100
Razorback-Heavy Flamer,Extra Armour 70

1750

The Land Raiders Move up with the death company not far behind.everything had FNP except for the assault squads that hang back.its sort of a no braniner

I dig this list a lot. in fact i think ill go with something similar to this although i am not a fan of rage so ill probably leave the Death company at home as i can get feel no pain and furious charge from the priest. I am gonna post a list soon and see what you guys think although i think ill let this post die.
