| Don't understand why you wouldn't just take another Beasts unit over those Harlies. Really liking the Blasterborn + Raider combo though, you don't often see it but it makes perfect sense! |

| What do you consider the prime target for Sathypants and the Hellions? They have no power weapons and no clear target that the Beasts or Harlies couldn't deal with better.
Considering your mixed setup I would have thought you'd want a harder hitting core popping out of the portals, and the Hellions feel like the third wheel from that part of the army. |

| The Hellions are there for AI shooting. |

| If they're there to shoot - is the Baron going with someone who is assaulting? I'd suggest it.
AI shooting is a reasonable role to fill - but my counter thought is, do you need it? I can't think of too many things that I'd want to shoot with splinter pods that I couldn't handle with either lances or an assault by Beastmasters. Also, just cost wise, for what they're bringing, I'm not sure they're the best win. Scourges can get you more shots for less cost - though they lack the assault option that the Hellions would have, which isn't to be totally ignored. |

| Based off these suggestions I came up with this list, when I played it it worked wonderfully but it probably was because I got first turn & had good reserve rolls. Turn 1 I shot with everything I had at his transports, I moved 12" then disembarked, then by turn 2 I was assaulting with both Wych squads and two Beasts squads. Destroyed 2 Leman Russes and 38 Infantry, after that I could focus a lot of Darklight onto whatever vehicle I wanted to destroy & he had nothing that could beat me in close combat though the Heavy Flamers did set me back quite a bit and killed my Wyches and a Beast squad.
