There you are, now help would be welcome. I'm likely to be facing a lot of tyranids, tau and necrons.

I'm fully aware of the fact I haven't added any flamers, if necessary i can drop some things to add the flamers to my squads, but as I said, advice is welcome.

Thanks

Doesn't exactly seem like much in a 1500 point game.

The first thing I see with your list is the giant terminator squad with landraider and character. That's about half your points right there. And looking at the rest of your list I'd say how well your army does hinges on how well they do. I don't really like it, one bad roll and your army may get hosed.

I'm looking at the rest of your army and am wondering, how do you expect them to get in to close combat? Aside from the land raider you have no ability to transport your troops. This means that they will have to walk across the battlefield on foot. Not a plesent though considering some of the shooty armies out there.

My last question is what do you intend to do about tanks? With the exception of the land raider (who will be transporting terminators) you have no anti-tank weapons. There isn't much you can do if someone brings a couple dreadnoughts or a hive tyrant. And heaven forbid a monolith shows up.
