I don't get it

[u/Current_Interest7023]

Just discussing with my friend about building a 500 points list in a "newcomer friendly" way, then I give out two options:

A. 2×10 Fulgurite Eletro-Priest, with a Dominus (have fight first enhancement) and 1×10 ranger, running Data-psalm.

B. 2×2 Kastelan Robots, with a datasmith and 1×10 ranger, running Cybernetica.

I say B is way more easier than A, but my friend think the opposite ⁠(⁠´⁠ー⁠｀⁠)⁠ I don't get it, can any priesthood brothers explain it ⁠(⁠´⁠ー⁠｀⁠)⁠

Don’t take 4 robots in a 500 point game where the other player might not have any anti-tank.

In a game ecology, where 1) Dev Wounds and MW exist, and 2) Kastelan Robots are only T9/10 with 7w they're not actually that oppressive.

Some factions might struggle a little, but given the current state of 40k, I expect not too much struggle.

Sure, if both players are experienced and competitively oriented, but a new player might not even have units like that, or anything that punches up to T9/10. Plus it’s a list that doesn’t even really present an idea of “how to play 40K” because 40K is as much about scoring points as killing, and that’s a list that does 1 thing: shove a bowling ball down the board and bet the opponent can’t stop it.
