I was reading Kirby's Flamestorm armies at 1750pts and decided to add a twist to it myself.
The original list can be seen here.
So here's something slightly different, brings more armour and more template fun to the party. Ditches the HKM's as you wanna get up close and personnal so aren't tempted to hang back launching random crack missiles at stuff; drops Sanguine Sword for Blood Lance as 2-3 str 10 attacks in combat on the libby ain't all that great in what is a in your face shooty force (and I'd prefer to run Sword with might of heroes and a second libby with sword and unleash rage in a more combat orientated army); dropped the Riflemen in place of Single Autocannon Predators to provide better armour cover for your entire force as you close in...besides having 6 AV 13 fast vehicles in the army for ramming purposes is a threat all of its' own...but still keeps 1 of 2 AC's (albeit not twin-linked) if you need to hang back a bit. It's a fast, in your face, shooty army. It requires a bit of finesses and proper abuse of blocking as you don't want to get in and lose your army to a timely counter attack from a bigger combat based force, but otherwise is an intriguing list. Shame the Furioso's are a bit slow, but when they get close those Frag Cannons are too funny. :D
