Hello Everybody!

I'm having a little 1000pt tournament with my freinds and will be fielding a vanilla marines list.The armies i will be playing against could be any in the range, as between them my freinds cover the lot - which means i need a fairly versatile list. Would you please have a look at this list see what improvements can be made to it, and provide any alternative ideas:

~space marine captain - 130pts
w/ relic blade
(attached to drop pod tac. sqd.)

~10 man tactical squad - 235pts
w/ power fist, m. melta, melta gun
(mounted in drop pod, combat squaded to seperate m. melta)

~10 man tactical squad - 240pts
w/ power fist, flamer, rocket launcher
(combat squaded, sgt/flam. mounted in razorback w/t.l. heavy bolters)

~2 X 5 man scout squad - 150pts
w/ sniper rifles
(on foot at first, using infiltrate to pick a good spot)

~2 X land speeder storm - 130pts
w/ multi melta

~3 man attack bike squad - 120pts
w/ heavy bolters

(all games will be played on a 4'x4' board,w/ randomley generated scenarios)

the idea is that the captain w/ the tactical squad drops straight into the middle of the enemy providing a distraction, the land speeders use their scout move to zip up the table and pop vehicles as possible, while the razorback/scouts/attack bikes pummel or pin units.

Then if they are still going at the end of the game, then the land speeders will be used to drop any scouts onto objectives.


p.s. i had been contemplating taking a librarian in term. armour in place of the captain, and using the spare 5pts to put a melta gun in my secong tactical squad.

Thank you for your time,
DaPheel.

I just realised that the L.S. storm is BS 3. So in light of my now properley reading the rules here's my amended list:

~space marine librarian - 100pts
w/ avenger/ vortex of doom
(attached to drop pod tac. sqd.)

~10 man tactical squad - 235pts
w/ power fist, m. melta, melta gun
(mounted in drop pod, combat squaded to seperate m. melta)

~10 man tactical squad - 240pts
w/ power fist, flamer, rocket launcher
(combat squaded, sgt/flam. mounted in razorback w/t.l. heavy bolters)

~2 X 5 man scout squad - 180pts
w/ sniper rifles + camo cloaks
(on foot at first, using infiltrate to pick a good spot)

~2 X land speeder storm - 100pts
w/ heavy bolters

~3 man attack bike squad - 150pts
w/ multi melta

If you're scouts all have snipers why would you put them into a landspeeder? Also one tank, especially a razorback isn't going to survive long at 1000pts. I would recommend either getting rid of it or taking some more armor. Personally I'm not a fan of the naked librarian, 100pts of "i can die just as fast as anyone else can" isn't what I would call a good investment. I think if you just gave him some terminator armor or something he'd be a lot better off.

The scouts will be deployed on foot in cover - they'll only be transported for oppotunistic objective grabbing.

The razorback was just to add a bit of firepower as a disposable transport once its rolled forward at 6" a turn.

I suppose i could dop it and give the librarian terminator armour + storm shield (also 40 pts) and given that a drop pod can carry 12 people, he could still go in there with the tactical squad. He'd last a lot longer and probably do more damage up close then the razorback would acheive.
