I'm planning to build a 1K point BA army with as many Dreads as possible.

HQ
Reclusiarch - 130

Troops
10 Death Company - 200
Death Company Dreadnought - 125
Death Company Dreadnought - 125

Elite
Furioso Librarian - 175

Heavy
Dreadnought - 105
Dreadnought - 105

Total -> 965

Hoping this is a competitive List. There are no scoring units and hopefully it would win through wipeout. The extra points are meant for upgrades to the Dreadnoughts, probably some Long range Anti-armor or Plasma Cannons.

Comments and suggestions are welcome

Would I recommend playing this list for fun? Yes.

Is it competative? Not even a little bit. I don't see any drop pods or storm ravens which to me indicates that you intend to footslog those 5 AV12 vehicles toward your foe. Any army with ANY shooting power will wipe them clean and any army that's dedicated to assault will know the value of Powerfists, meltaguns and the like.

In an objectives game, they will simply place the points far apart and abuse the rage rules to kite you.

It's a fun list, and it would be awesome to play...but you won't win much.

would more Furiosos be better with AV 13?

but.. how many dread would be more than enough?
