1500 Kroot Merc Army list
Just after some opinions on the strengths and weakness of the list. its geared to be heavy close combat, with the master shaper and the carnivore squads taking out troop and HQ (i hope) with the shaper council takin out vehicles, the kroot trackers pinning heavy weapon (blast marker)squads while the krootox heard provides some fire power to take out light vehicles, water down troublsome units and provide support to isolated units
the kroot merc list can be found here if you want some reference
