Thoughts, people of the wargaming community?

I'll start off with the list I have for a tournament in a few weeks.

2000 points

Lysander

Troops

Ten Strong

Razorback-HK, Dozer Blade, Extra Armor

Multi-Melta
Drop Pod

Elites
Terminators
7 strong
2 Chainfists

Fast Attack
Stormtalon-Typhoon Missile Launcher

Heavy Support
Crusader-storm bolter, HK, Extra Armor

Vindicator-Siege Shield, HK, Extra Armor

Predator-Heavy Bolters, HK, Dozer Blade, Extra Armor

Tanks may have taken a hit but mech is still a viable option. With the alteration to shooting rules and the damage chart Extra Armor seems to be a must rather than a luxury. The Stormtalon is to take advantage of the new Flyer rules as well as to perform Incerceptor duties.

I have to politely disagree that extra armor is more atractive now.

Glances no longer stop you moving.

But they kill you rather quickly.

When vehicles die easier, why make them more expensive?

Instead, get another one.

For the same reason, I am not a HK fan.

But I do see the alfa strike potential.

That however limits movement, wich is the reason to get the extra armor.

The HKs and extra armor will buy you a dread, for example.
