Played out this list during the week.
Faced off against Smurfs with their primarch and a skyhammer with grav formation and librarian conclave formation.
Opponent had turn 1
I lost the 2 bloodthristers immediately to the grav cannon devastators, which I wasn't happy about.
The rest of the game was a challenge but worked out better than I thought I destroyed the skyhammer annihilation squads using those flesh hound units that I bubblewrapped my bloodthristers with maulerfiend wrecked the drop pods and had another unit of flesh hounds go in and assault the librarius conclave that had rolled all it's powers on fulmination in order to cast powers to move guilliman across the board faster.
flesh hounds have preferred enemy psykers so that was lovely. Guilliman started wrecking flesh hounds in assault but thanks to being fearless they became an endless tarpit for him allowing me to destroy the rest of the army and win ALL of the objectives with the mobility to get wherever i needed to be.
Maulerfiends and flesh hounds def won the game for me and made it look easy.

This thrusday I got a couple games to play. I wanted to take the list here and make it deadlier or maybe i just wanted an excuse to bring my newly built renegade knight on the table for the glory of khorne. The world may never know
Anyway I made some cuts to the list to find the points needed, of course I went with a melee knight because I'm leaning towards an all out combat aggressive list. Last time the D-thristers got nailed to the wall by skyhammer dropping down i'm hoping to mitigate this with the knight bubble wrapped in hounds and having the D-thristers swoop in from reserves.
If alpha strike isnt a problem then I'm hoping to just push these 3 combat monsters up the board.
