Flyers might be an issue. A Necron Doom Scythe can wreck your day.

That's a lot of T5 with 4+ cover saves though, which is super cool. (3+ or 2+ if turbo boosting on the knights!)

Definately has its weakness, but what army doesn't.

And, its 6 scoring units... sure they are small units when combat squadded, but makes it harder to focus your fire on them. Plus, with the stealth provided by the Darkshroud it can turn into a pesky situation when that one unit turbos onto an objective last turn, from across the table....

I think your rw grenade launcher on the command squad has to be on the banner dude; it reads that one of the 'knights' can take it, but you upgrade a knight into a champion, so he's not a knight anymore.

That helldrake of the chaos fools I'd need an aspirin after that

Are the attack bikes scoring?

The command squad and the knights aren't, the bikes can be combat squaded.

The way I've read it is that in teh attack squad, all the bikes, including the attack bike, are scoring. The Speeder would not be.

Correct. Each bike sqd can split into 2 units of 3 bikes and attack bike and speeder... Or 4 separate units, 3 of which can score.
