The Great Flip Flop

Well, things have been extremely busy for me lately with work and life in general.  I've had little to no free time to work on my painting.  The deadline has come and gone with respect to the first 200 points due for January.  I have not made my self imposed quota for painting.  Part of the problem is I've been changing lists so often I end up half painting too many mini's.  At any rate, I've been toying with the idea of going back to the Flesh Tearer's.  We are to have our first kill team game next weekend and I can get this list done in time (more than likely at any rate...).

200 Points:

Troops:
5 Man Assualt Squad with Melta Gun, Power Weapon, Razorback with Heavy Bolter. - 145 points

Elite:
1 Priest with Melta Bombs - 55 points

Carrying the list forward to 500 points it would look like this:

HQ:
Librarian with Unleash Rage, Shield of Sanguinius - 100 points

Troops:
5 Man Assualt Squad with Melta Gun, Razorback with Assault Cannon. - 165 points
5 Man Assualt Squad with Melta Gun, Power Weapon, Razorback with Assault Cannon. - 180 points

Elite:
1 Priest with Melta Bombs - 55 points

The Librarian would ride with the assault squad without the power weapon

At 750 points the list would look like this:

HQ:
Librarian with Unleash Rage, Shield of Sanguinius - 100 points
Honour Squad with Chapter Banner, 2 Power Weapons, 2 Melta Guns, Razor Back with Heavy Bolter - 250 points

Troops:
5 Man Assualt Squad with Melta Gun, Razorback with Assault Cannon. - 165 points
5 Man Assualt Squad with Melta Gun, Power Weapon, Razorback with Assault Cannon. - 180 points

Elite:
1 Priest with Melta Bombs - 55 points

The Librarian now rides with the Honour Squad.

At 1000 Points the list looks like this:

HQ:
Librarian with Unleash Rage, Shield of Sanguinius - 100 points
Honour Squad with Chapter Banner, 2 Power Weapons, 2 Melta Guns, Razor Back with Assault Cannon - 285 points

Troops:
5 Man Assualt Squad with Melta Gun, Power Weapon, Razorback with Assault Cannon. - 180 points
5 Man Assualt Squad with Melta Gun, Power Weapon, Razorback with Assault Cannon. - 180 points

Elite:
2 Priest with Melta Bombs - 110 points

Fast:
1 Baal Predator with Heavy Bolters - 145

The final blocks leading up to 1500 points I would either go with the fluff and add a squad of death company in a rhino with a chaplain and a drop podding DC dreadnought.  Or a tactically more sound list and add another razor back assault squad with priest and add a vindicator and another baal pred.  However, at 2k it all fits together. 

All the above models are assembled and mostly primed and based and I think I could get a base coat down on the kill team for next weekend (I have a crazy work week ahead of me so I might be pushing it).  

It looks like once again I have flip flopped... time will only tell.
