New Draigo List

I think I might have a handle on a reasonably competitive Draigo list now.  I stole most of it from Hulksmash.  I won't have as much S8+ target saturation as my previous lists, but I think the extra bodies will compensate:

HQ
Draigo

Troops
GKSS with Pyscannons x2, Pysbolts, and Rhino
GKSS with Pyscannons x2, Pysbolts, and Rhino
Paladin Squad
  DH and MC Pyscannon
  Halberd and MC Pyscannon
  Halberd
  Sword
  DH

Elites
Purifier Squad (5) with Pyscannon x2 and Rhino
Purifier Squad (5) with Pyscannon x2 and Rhino

Heavy
Dreadknight with Teleporter
Pysfleman
Pysfleman

5 Termies from hell, 30 Marines, 4 Rhinos, a DK, and 2 Pysflemen seems like a fairly solid force.

  1. I think you need a lot more bodies at 2000 or stronger ones. If you aren't taking more paladins, then why take Draigo?

    What do you think about this at 1997?

    Draigo 275 points

    5 Paladins 2 psycannons, 2 swords, 2 halberds, 1 hammer 315 pts

    5 Paladins 2 psycannons, 2 swords, 2 halberds, 1 hammer 315 pts

    10 Strike Squad, 2 psycannons, psybolt ammo, rhino 1 halberd-justicar 285 pts

    10 purifiers w 4 psycannons, 6 halberds, and rhino, 332 points

    Dreadnight w Teleporter 205 pts
    2 x psyfleman 270 pts

  2. That's definately another way to go. I am afraid the 2 rhinos lose too much saturation, though. That and the non Draigo squad will get eat all the S8 fire, neutralizing Draigo's SS and EW. It is still an option to consider though.
