Total 2452pts

The basic idea is to have the to 10 man tac squads combat squad and go forward in the razorbacks.Along with the chaplain and assault squad. The rest provide cover fire and advance as needed.
The terminator chaplain and termies then DS on the teleport homers or in enemy back field. The army of course would use the iron hands chapter traits. The debate I have been having with myself is what to do with the last of the points. I have been thinking of adding some chainfists or something to the termies.
But no idea really. I would be interested to see how this performs if I somehow get the chance sometime soon.


More painting and such next week.

  1. May I ask why the storm bolters for the sternguard? And for 50 points... take a land speeder or something: an annoying unit can be a great asset, as no one wants to devote firepower to it, but it will cause some damage, or be taken out with firepower that could be used elsewhere. They have a name for them in WFB, but I can't remember it!

  2. Honestly just like the SB and if I remember they can use the special ammo too. As for land speeders, part of this is the fact that this list was made only with the models I have. In general I own very few vehicles just cause I don't like them. Main thing I think I really need to buy at the moment is more tac marines because I would love more troops in this list and maybe a dread or two. Now if they can't use the special ammo I will prob just switch it back. But don't have codex with me to check.
