Hmm, I'm a bit leery of anything with so few boots on the ground. You've only got so few wounds that a few lucky rolls on the enemy's part could mess you up something fierce.

In particular, I'm wondering how you would deal with a gunline. Space Marines in terrain firing heavy weapons with a counterattack assault squad behind is a pretty common thing to run into, but I think it would ruin your day..

For your bikes to make their points back they either need to blow up 2 vehicles, or win 2 fights. A powerfist is strong, but they are still going to enter a suicide pact with any enemy infantry they lock to who have a fist of their own.

On the other hand, you'll have a good chance to set up the pain in Escalation games, with melta-traps waiting for enemy vehicles no matter where they come on. You can also get first turn charges on any unprotected shooting elements of enemy forces with your scouting fisters.

All told I'm dubious. Against very vehicle enemy's you have a good chance, but I think that infantry sloggers will beat you handily, just not enough wounds/ability to kill infantry in cover.

Yeah, I am worried about infantry heavy armies but fortunately most of the players in our area play vehicle heavy armies so we'll see.
