Interesting video! I like that you have a solid plan going in. Of course, no plan survives contact with the enemy, so contingencies are good to have, It looks like a fun list to play against it isn't highly optimized. I feel that if you come up against a lot og=f buildings you may have an issue dislodging your opponent, some walkers would offset that to a degree. The other area you may have a challenge with, is mobility, some transports could help. I understand that the pioneer company does mitigate that. I am looking forward to hearing how it went! Best of luck! (you have the strategy but you also need the dice!)
Glad you enjoyed the video, and thanks so much for sharing your thoughts. My plan with infantry in buildings is just to bypass them, if possible -- but I agree that some Aethon Heavy Sentinels with their frag missiles would be beneficial. To your other point, I usually do take Dracosans with my Seize group, and unfortunately have not found them to be really worth it in any of my games. Perhaps my mechanized infantry tactics need work!
Nice list, I was surprised the ogryns weren't in the pioneer company so they could infiltrate. Hope the tournament goes well and I look forward to hearing how it went.
That's a good question -- Basilisks are tough to deal with under any circumstances. Ideally, I'd have a Deep Strike or Outflank capable formation to get into the back line and deal with them. As it stands right now, I'll have to push up the table rapidly and destroy them in place.

Seems like a quite well balanced list. Not too strong, not too weak. I look forward to the tournament report.

I think putting them in the pioneer company would be a good option! Infiltrate is very powerful.

Thank you! I'm getting to head out right now
Good luck man
Thank you!
How would you deal with a Basilisk heavy opponent with this group?
