Looks like you're getting some more solid totals in your list here.

For the troops, keep one squad of your DAs at a 10 man, field another five man. That five man can be used to hold objectives and serve as an emergency rearguard.

For your bike Autarch, go with a Fusion Gun and Powersword. He'll make his points back if you use his lots of attacks, fast movement, and good weapons to peck at enemy heavy weapons and shoot at rear armor on enemy vehicles.

I love warp spiders!!! you can use them very similar to Tau Crisis Suits.

Get on a hill or other suitable terrain and fire like mad, then in your assault phase jump behind the hill so that your enemy cant shoot back.

just watch out - those difficult terrain tests can halve your squad in one jump on a bad roll

Nice! My new HQs and Fast attacks came in.

They 're awesome looking after assembling. However, all the joy was kinda sucked out when I discovered my Wraithlord sword had fallen somehow from its bow, under my computer chair's wheel, and snapped in 2 :/

Figures the piece of the figure that I loved the MOST and was looking so forward to painting and it falls and snaps/gets bent....typical.

So the new update for this Friday's game in the campaign,

After last week, my entire army was killed, and their story lays within the story I wrote of their Farseer's down fall. His son now undertakes his father's helm, and the army is lead by a new vengeful leader!

As thus, I am allowed to redo my entire army with +4 Campaign points, for a grand total of 875 points.

Most likely, I'll go with what I had before, but replace the Guardians with Dire avengers, and a warwalker. I'd LIKE to put my Warp spiders in there, but I dont think I'll have the point to support it. Also, All rangers will become pathfinders.

And the BIGGEST boost of all, due to the story, and th ending I sent off to the Judge, I have been given and AWESOME bonus due to it.

For the next battle, free of charge, I am allowed to take with my Army "The Blood hand Avatar of Khain"! So I get my farseer (Since I want to follow my story somewhat with him) and the Avatar, no cost.

IF any suggestions from my ideas already, feel free to post them.

I know, right!? But I think everyone that lost last week is getting a free non-named HQ for their army.

As for Pathfinders, for +5 points, your basic ranger gets +2 to their stealth instead of the usual +1, Their AP1 shots that come from a roll of a 6 are now instead 5s and 6s, and they also get the Scout's rule as well. Just the AP1 and +2 make it so worth it in my opinion.

with mobile cover save courtesy of warlock, and brightlance available for tankhunting, a guardian squad is quite good firebase holder... just dont expect them to beat anyone except grots in hth...
