ok i know purifier spam has been done but had an idea of a fire list.
hq
crowe
elite
vindicare assassin (had the points and i always liked this guy but doesnt really fit the fire theme)
Troops
3 x 10 purifiers with 2 x psycannons and 2 x incinerators rest with halberds in rhinos
10 purifiers with 4 incinerators rest with halberds in a rhino
heavy
2 dreadknights with heavy incinerators with teleporters
flamer tenplates all over the place all str 6 as well as cleansing flame. assassin and dreadknights as well as psycannons for meq. Purifier can handle hordes. MC's shouldnt post any problem for all the force weapons in the list.
im sure there is lots wroung with the list, and crowe being who he is all by him self does suck, and well what to do against flyers other then throw all my psycannons at them and hope for double 6's lol but all the flame does have me thinking of a menoth army lol

You could always buy crowe a personal storm raven instead of the vindicare, and drop the rhino from the 4 incin unit and deepstrike them.
Does crowe have the IC special rule or not? I forget. Cus you could always deepstrike him with one squad if you wanted to.

the 4 incin unit and deepstrike them. purifiers cant deepstrike, thats strike squads (and interceptors IIRC)

purifier..... what are the mass purifiers weak to? Orc shooting or massed ap 3. But what's the point to trying to make your list specifically to beat one? That makes it incredibly weak to most others...

ahhh that makes sense. i haven't used purifiers before, i don't think they are as bad a people say. Guy has been using them for a while. that being said i was going to be quite a bit more argessive with them.
I dont think ill actually make this list but i wanted to do a list based on fire, and purifiers are really the best way to make it viable since they can take 4 special weapons you can put two incinerators and still have a couple psycannons for anti tank.
weakness to this list, double or triple dragon, double or triple defilers, mass shooting since im foot slogging unless im hot with my armour dice.

The problem with purifiers is that you pay a premium cost for an MEQ body, and most "rough" expect to be able to remove 30 MEQs per game. So, really foot purifiers just won't work, the protection a rhino provides really does change the game tho.
Just thinking about the matchups, I can only see a couple armies this would really stick it to. The rest are kinda like "Meh, I can remove 40 MEQs"

Grey Knights are meant to be an aggressive army... just ask anyone who played against my Purifier list at Ard Boyz how aggressive I was with them.
