Army composition - 2006/03/20 15:36
Ok, since the DA release has been pushed back to early 2007 (about 12 months from now, I suppose) and I have about 1500p of DA ready (eh... well... bought... not ready  ) I was thinking I'd post my current army list and have you guys add comments so I can (maybe) base my purchases on it. I'm not planning on starting a new army, I spend enough money on 1.

My tac squads form a firebase, a plasma squad is always near a lascannon squad.
Dreadnought acts as mobile firebase, roaming around my tac squads and protecting them from assaults.
Snipers act as... snipers  They hide in bushes and shoot anything they see (preferably wraithlords).
Big scout squad infiltrates as far ahead as possible, keeping to a flank as much as possible, they move towards the enemy, dropping of those terminators as they go.
Assault squad along with chaplain act as a countercharge unit or as a flanking unit, waiting for the right moment to strike.
You should also know that my playgroup doesn't use many tanks, and personally, I don't like many of the tank models.
Planned purchases of confirmed models are:
- plastic sniper scouts (not that useful to have 10 probably)
- jumppack chaplain (got a converted one already, this is just a great model)
Eagerly awaited DA releases (unconfirmed) to buy:
- vindicator
- deathwing terminators
So, have you guys got any comment, advice, ... post it here 
PS: didn't quite know where to post this, so feel free to move the thread.
