"He is bad because my buddies agreed with me" is not a strong argument...
I think GCMandrake has nailed the argument perfectly, your enemy would be ill advised to leave Ramb-, I mean, Marbo running unchecked amongst their lines with a mad pistol and a full complement of melta bombs, and for a mere 65 he is an absolute bargain. As GBF also stated the synergy he provides a Catachan themed army is impressive as you force your enemy to deal with a number of cheap but comparatively tough squads that all pack a punch from early in the game.
