Anyone seen this?

Shrike attatched to a command squad on bikes infiltrating.

Can give the 4 vets storm shields and relic blades. Would make a pretty nasty squad.

Nasty, yes, but you still cant assault first turn...

You actually can't assault the 1 st turn of the game which isn't the 1st game turn. On the second turn they can still assault, which will stil be in the first game turn.

In other words if he choose to go second he can assault turn one. If the squad lives long enough to do so are anyone is dumb enough to stay in assault range.

[DarkLink]

Either way, your opponent gets to shoot you and run away first.

[Allen Broussard]

true, but if you put em say 15 inches behind a large LOS blocking terrain and have a sternguard drop pod back em up when turn 2 comes around you should be able to nueter a chunk of the opposing army

This seems really similar to the ever popular Shrike+Libby with gate+ large terminator blob death star. Both are scary, distracting, and yet sadly not all that great.

Command Squad vets can't have Relic Blades ?

for 520 points, if you give them power weapons they would want to be bloody spectacular !

And m pretty sure Khan is a much better option to do the outflank thing,but he also gives them Hit and Run
