You do realize that in objective games you have to completely table your opponent to win right?

Yeah, I do; the point of this list is just to have fun with. I mean, just having 2 infantry squads, 2 dreads, and 2 SR isn't going to be overly competitive anyway.

Don't laugh. A player at my local GW runs an all DC list and while it certainly is not competitive, he has a lot more success than you'd think.

Death Company are nothing to scoff at, I wonder why they're not fielded more often...makes me miss the old BA pdf

I love DC lists... I think they're an absolutely silly way to let the game play itself!

We have a local tournament coming up next month and I seriously considered playing an all-DC list just to be remembered. "Oh hi, I wanted to join the tourney but didn't actually want to play."

I think DC in Rhinos/Drop Pods are much nastier than the JP variety. At least then you have SOME semblance of control. And then of course there is the 15DC with a ton of upgrades/Chaplain in a Crusader. *shudder*

I agree, this was the motive behind the list; more of a "hi, I don't plan on winning, just to have fun". While they can be nasty in ground based transports (and if they were in Rhinos I could have probably added more DC) but I liked the idea of two DC SRs flying in on essentially a suicide mission.
