I do not expect any 3-story buildings to impede me, so how does this look? Not sure, myself, but I am infatuated with a Biker army and I may have found a good way to finally put it together.

Thoughts?

Hmm I think it would be a good idea to swap an entire command squad's options with 4 plasma guns. Other than that you have plenty of tl bolters and meltas to take a lot of things. just watch out for big blasts that'll instant death your guys

I'm not entirely sold on having two captains. I would also upgrade the bike squads to be full squads, so you can combat squad.

Also find a way to get in some long range punch. Like TL-AC dreads. Or LS Typhoons.

This will be a White Scars list, so Dreads are out. Combat Squads, in my experience, have always left me with less firepower and weaker units. I can try it again, but I am loathe to do so.

Ah, alright then. You will still need long range firepower though.

And having looked at it more closely, you have MM attack bikes with flamers. Not good synergy. I'd just stick with HB on those bikes.

Yea, I know. It was a "hey, I have 20pt to throw around" type thing. I am considering something for my Captains or their Squads instead. Not sure if I want to do two Command Squads or a single with a Librarian (Stormseer) to accompany them, giving me Psyker protection.

What do you think?

I'm biased towards the librarian, especially with things like null zone and vortex of doom. The bike gives him relentless so you can still fire off that S10 AP1 blast. Also two command squads seem like overkill.

More fun to convert a Stormseer, too. Would also give me a lot of points to play around with. Perhaps two squads maxed out, so a pair of 5-man combat squads can sit on objectives?

I would go with scout sniper squads with a ML. 100 points for a unit with a 3+ cover and can threaten MC's and light vehicles? Yes please!

The min/max-er in me wants to deviate from the theme!
