2000 ITC No Forge World Blitze

[shadowfinder]

I been trying to build a TAC list. I like to play aggressive and enjoy assault based list. This list drops the dekka fex's I like for mixxed arm's fex's so they can fight as they advance forward. I could drop a fex for a bigger Hive Guard unit for the double shot unit... Sadly getting more Hive Guard is a issue

First time Running a dual Hive Fleet list. Not sure if i should. I could do a pure kraken list drop the Nerothroupe and add a Mal to get -2 to hit on the Tyrant and -1 for the stealers blobs moving forward.

Please thought need on this list to help refine.

 I think it has to do with the itc rules where you give away more points with a 20+ model unit if it is killed in comparison to a 19 model unit.
 for me it is a mystery as none of the tournaments in my country that I know off use the itc rules. (maybe its something mostly american? not sure)

IN the ITC a secondary scoring give up 2 point instead of one for having 20+ models in a unit.
For one model it is not a big deal to make the list 19. If I could take stealers in units or 30 I would and not car about the extra point.

Anything else about the list you have questions on?

could you squeeze points to turn the spearhead into a battalion?! You are really close to it!
