No Kroot? Fine… If you ever come across any (like say… a battleforce), I’ll have em… since you don’t want to use them and all
By having your Crisis Suits and Vespid hanging around between your Fire Warriors and your opponents guys, do you mean you want them to soak up the fire? That’s not so good, neither will last
that long.
Ever heard of the JSJ (jump shoot jump) tactic? You’re jumpy guys start off behind LoS blocking terrain then move out during the movement phase. In the shooting phase they do their thing and make lotsa dakka, then use their assault phase movement to move behind the terrain again. What’s better than armour saves? Not being shot at, and this does exactly that. Doesn’t work for Vespid though, they require much more finesse as they have short ranged weapons and cannot JSJ. They can’t take on squads head on, and they break easy.
Here’s a brief tactica on some of their uses. I don’t think it’s finished from memory.
List wise, look
here for some “inspiration” and stuffs. More recent lists are added at the bottom posts. Model wise, you could also save much money looking to discount stores. You can save so much it’s not funny, like ~50% off something that’s supposed to already be discounted. Well, it actually is, but another 50% on top of it ain’t funny… (Hunter Cadre Apoc deal)
And a little heads up on vehicles, only buy Sky Rays for Devilfish based vehicles, it comes with the parts to make a Devilfish, Hammerhead with either a railgun or ion cannon and a Sky Ray, so with some careful planning you can quickly swap around arments and have a specific vehicle you want in seconds. That's if you want them, it's not impossible to go without them. Just a lil more trickier.
