You're right, I have not played this list yet and therefore don't get an opinion. But I have played the Red Corsair list and have never encountered an issue with it's noise marine formation that is both cheaper and contains a lord. I was merely commenting that its odd that the list that should contain the most noise from a fluff perspective has the less cost effective version.
No one in my group own a thunderhawk and therefore Ive not experienced the air assault with fearless transport issue. (To be honest I don't think Emperors Children would be sane enough to pull off an air assault!) However, I feel its odd to penalize an armies signature unit because of one of its transport options. Surely it is the transport that should be changed rather than the unit?
No one is begrudging your opinion, but as strongly implied throughout the thread (if not stated directly), the more you help out with play testing, the greater the weight your opinion will have. What goes on with the Red Corsair list is all well and good, but it has little to do with this one. So quasi-sane space marines from all traitor legions can coordinate a drop from space but EC cannot use a t-hawk? I don't buy that line of argument and I think sanity (or lack thereof) is abstracted out of E:A in general.
On the knights, I forgot about Kyuss's game when I made the "underwhelming" comment and have yet to try maxing out on the castigator cannon one. I think I'll try that sometime and see how it goes.
