Hi all, what about this pretty little WHITE SCARS list?
C&C welcome.

QG - Korsarro on bike - 205
EL - Dreadnought - drop pod - 140
FA - Land Speeder STORM - 50
FA - 3x Land Speeder - 1x Assault Cannon - 2x Multi-melta - 230
FA - 3x Land Speeder - 1x Assault Cannon - 2x Multi-melta - 230
TR - 5x bike - Sgt with power fist - 1x assault bike with Multi-melta - 215
TR - 5x bike - Sgt plasma pistol and Melta bombs - 1x assault bike with Multi-melta - 210
TR - 10x Tactical marines - flamer and missile launcher - Rhino with extra armor - 220

Tot. 1500

One team of Land Speeder will outflank, the Tactical Rhino will come later in the game, everyone running ahead from first turn.

What do you think?

Don't take a Land Speeder Storm without Scouts. Use the extra points to buy the Tac Sergeant a power fist and give the second biker Sergeant a fist instead of his plas pistol and power fist. You should have 20 points left over, which is enough for some special weapons on those Bikers.

Thank you for the reply.

I opted for two 6x-bike (+1 assault bike each) squads, just to enlarge the toughness 5 number of elements fielded.
For the same reason, is a good choice the Rhino unit or it will be better have a third bike squad? Consider that this equipe will be deployed teorically on my objective the latest turns of the game when I hope to had already killed the heavy enemy weapons.

Following this idea maybe will be usefull a third bike squad that will always be able to outflank and achieve the object.

I've never used bikes so all this doubts.

A 3rd bike squad is better than the tactical marines. You can always turbo back to your board edge objectives on turn 4/5. No need to have a tact squad in a rhino sitting there. I'm not too sure about your drop pod dread. I'd cut down 2 speeders and the dread to get a 4th bike squad. All of the bike squads should have 2 meltaguns.

I find bike squads to work really well in 3 configurations:
310 pts for 8 bikes, 2 meltaguns, pf and mm attack bike
235 pts for 5 bikes, 2 meltaguns, pf and mm attack bike
185 pts for 4 bikes, 2 meltaguns, MM attack bike (when you're lacking in pionts to squeeze more bikes in)

Take MM/HF speeders for your army only. AC/HB speeders are too many points, MM/MM speeders don't scare infantry armies.

I think you could go:
Khan
2 full bike squads
2 min bike squads
4 MM/HF speeders
1475 points, with 25 to play around with. Another bike or PF?

@ryan3740:
The reason for a foot scoring unit is that bikers can't go up stairs...

@Toban:
The modified list:

What’s the point of Khan? If you don’t have anything that really benefits from him vastly there’s no reason to throw your points away by taking him.
Dread: hvy flamer is suggested.
Speeders: spread out the Speeders to 3 FA slots, while the weapon loadout is less than ideal…I suggest attack bike squadrons as well.

Bikers: always, always maximize and get the second special weapon.
