You really gotta work on the formatting...this is barely legible. Look at other posts around the forums for ideas on how do post a clear list. Also, what are you trying to achieve with this list? Do you want the most broken tourney balls buster that you can get? Or are you more of a fluff kind of guy and want things to fit into a pre-concieved idea that you already have?

On the lists themselves: they both have good qualities. The second has lots of boots on the ground and the first has good mobility. The standard shooty marine list of doom looks something like this (going for 60/40 shooty counter-charge):

Master/chaplain/librarian-w/goodies (don't go overboard, these guys can't be tooled like chaos lords)

1-2 5 man terminator squads, w/2 assault cannons and furious charge or tank hunters

6x: 6 Tactical Marines, lascannon, plasma gun

2 8-10 man assault marine squads, veteran sergeant with power fist

2 8 man devastator squads, 4 heavy bolters

whirlwind

A lot of that can be swapped out for your personal taste, but that's the base of the powerful "mauleed" shooty marines that are the tourney standard.

cheers
