Unusually, I agree with Nurglitch.

Now are there things I would do differently in that list? Yeah, but it's not a radical redesign.

That's the kind of list that someone who "gets" how different 2500 is from "regular" 40K makes. Now this may be because Nurglitch habitually sits outside the box but it works in this case

The thing is that even this kind of list has a hard time with Guard, new BA lists, SW, and, hell, even Orks. Deff Rollas, anyone?

So...do all of you have like 6 land raiders just sitting around?

My Competitive 1850 is as follows:

Dp, wings.
DP, wings.
10 Plague Marines, 2 Meltas, Fist, Rhino.
10 Plague Marines, 2 Meltas, Fist, Rhino.
10 Plague Marines, 2 Flamers, Fist, Rhino.
3 Oblits.
3 Oblits.
175 points left for whatever I feel like at the time.

There is no doubt that the plague marines are not an optimal size, but works just as those normal DP/Cult/Oblit lists will work. It's more of an objective based list than offensive I admit.

My exp. vs. Guard and Orks are good.
Though I've had little exp with new SW with Chaos and no exp. w/ BA cause we wait for the real deal to be in our hands.

Thanks again all!

@ BullDuram: Hey thanks for the first post on me!!

Yeah no prob Bille_Joe...aka Green Day.

I think the points you spent/spend on chosen could be best used elsewhere in your list. Idk on what atm but I'll mathhammer it and figure it out.
