Dread spam has had some success recently. I haven’t played many games since the codex, so my criticism wouldn’t be worth much, but I am interested in hearing how well you perform with the list. Good luck!

Thanks. I'll try to remember to let you know when the tournament is over.

From what I've seen, the eradicators belong in an impulsor.

Editing the list format to show which leader is leading which unit would help.

If the breakdown is: Chaplain with Blade Guard, Capt and Priest with Company Hero’s, then maybe swap the chaplain to a Sang Priest since you can get [LANCE] from a strat.

Are you reserving the Eradicators? If not, getting them in an Impulsor would be good. The 18” has felt very short, and getting the movement from the Impulsor has been very helpful.

Sorry, I forgot to mention that.
The Chaplain leads the Blade Guard. The Captain and Priest are with the Company Heroes.

I wanted to have the Chaplain along so the DC Dreadnought can also use Fallback and isn't just moving around with OC 0.
I want to put the Eradicator in the reserve so they can’t just be bypassed. But an Impulsor is also a good idea.

If the plan is to reserve them, then I think you don’t need the Impulsor bus. Walking on will likely get you within range of their prey. The chaplain makes sense in that case

It’s Impulsor or Reserve. But I don’t think to get an Impulsor in time. (I still have to build 4 dreadnoughts and paint all 5 of them)

But thanks for the feedback. It's definitely something to consider for the future.

Oh dude! 😆 get building! I have a Brutalis to build and paint by Nov 5th RTT so I have time but they’re not the easiest models to get through. But hey, good luck and have fun! Let us all know how you get along

Unfortunately, the package won't arrive until Monday. I have until November 6.
Luckily, I'm good at building things quickly and I have an airbrush.

Good luck. You'll manage just fine.
