I am collecting Ultramarines, and I was wondering on what I should add to my collection next.

What I have so far:
1-space marine captain
1- chaplian with jump pack
1-dreadnought
1-rhino
1-scout biker
1-terminator squad
1-tac squad
1-assault squad
1-scout squad

Its a mishmosh of units, have not got much direction in what kind of army they will turn into.

Well,since your unsure with the direction your wishing to take your army in,you can't go wrong with yet another tactical sqaud and a rhino as theses will benifit you regaurdless of wich direction you go.

I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.

And no matter which direction you take your army, 2 tac sqauds with rhinos will be very usefull,plus you can use the time painting them to further consider how you want your army to be...just be careful with the primer

Yeah agreed the codex,you'll need it for gaming and after reading more on the rules/fluff you will be able to decide what you feel like adding next.

Laying your army list out like this is a better way of doing things.

HQ
1-space marine captain
1- chaplain with jump pack

TROOPS
1-tac w/rhino
1-scout squad

ELITES
1-dreadnought
1-terminator squad

FAST ATTACK
1-assault squad

HEAVY SUPPORT
??????

BITS/Conversion fodder.
1-scout biker (Maybe convert this into an objective)


I would buy a battleforce boxed set.
That would allow you to increase the size of both your assault squad and scout squad. and give you one more tac squad/rhino.

That ought to be a good solid core for you to hang some heavy support off.
