Well I am starting marines and I was wondering what else I should get.

This is what I have so far,

One 10 man tact squad with flamer and Sgt with powerfist.

A Chaplin with plasma pistol.

And a land raider crusader.

I was thinking to be a scout heavy army with two ten man sniper scouts, one five man shotgun squad and one cc squad which will be in land speeder storms.

I was wondering what HS choices I should get?

Need an army list, mate. And the SM codex if you don't have it already

Well soon iwill get the codex, but i was kind of wondering what most sm players use? What is good in the sm army?

Go to the army list forums and read through the SM lists posted there. That's how I made my decisions on what to buy. Look at what other people are making of their armies and the opinions of those who go over the list. Also check the Space Marine tactica articles as there is one that does a full run through of the SM units. The writer through a few opinions in there but overall its a helpful little guide for a crash course in SM armies.

You don't have to use the vanilla SM codex, you could use SW, BT, BA or DA. But if you are I suggest another tac squad and some elites (like terminators). AOBR box set would be ideal and you get some extra orks to sell/swap.
