1500 pts of Space Marines

Post by Daicon »

It's been a while since I've posted anything, so here's a new list up for review. I've tried to go for a well rounded force with this list.

HQ
Chapter Master- 170pts
Artificer Armor
Relic Blade

Troops
Tactical Squad x10- 215pts
Plasma Gun
Drop pod

Tactical Squad x10- 185pts
Plasma Gun
Plasma Cannon

Tactical Squad x10- 185pts
Plasma Gun
Plasma Cannon

Elites
Sternguard Veterans x8- 235pts
Drop Pod

Dreadnaught- 140 pts
Drop pod

Fast Attack
Vanguard Veterans x8- 370pts
Power weapons
Jump Packs

My main opponents with this list will be other marines and chaos marines, hence my favoring plasma weaponry. My basic plans for the army are to have the sternguard vets drop down first turn with the chapter master to claim and hold important objectives while the dreadnaught drops down into enemy lines to tank hunt.

The tactical squads with a drop pod will (hopefully) lend support in holding objectives to the sternguard after they arrive in later rounds, while the other two tactical squads will make good use of the combat squads rules to split up and cover more ground.

Finally, the vanguard vets will be my reactionary squad, hiding behind cover until they need to intercept any enemy squads advancing on my more static fire bases.

Comments and critiques are, as always, more than welcome.
