Hi, im entering a small "tournament" at my FLGS but am not the most apt person at building competitive lists, could anyone help with a 750pt SM/SW/BA list? (also I see allot of these "15 piranha" and "Terminator Army" lists, try not to go OTT with choices) Thanks in advance.

Depends what most of your opponents will take. SM, eldar, tyranids..?

JB: I like the concept of a free Shrike roaming through the treetops of the jungle. I'm not sure that I like the idea of a real Shrike sitting on my couch eating my Skittles.
corpsesarefun: Thank god I missed be nice to shrike day.
greenskin lynn: because of all the skittles and soda, you basically live off sugar water, like some sort of freakish human-hummingbird hybrid. |

There will probably be a mix of opponents, but I expect the main ones will be SM. Here are my 8000pts of marines:
60 tac marines
20 assault marines
20 devastators
5 command
10 honour guard
enough captains to make any SM/SW/BA special character
2 chaplains
2 librarians
2 techmarines
10 sternguard
10 vanguard
10 LOTD
3 dreads
3 rhinos
1 LRC
5 bikes, 1 attack bike
3 landspeeders
1 vindicator
1 predator
30 scouts (all types)
5 assault terminators
5 regular terminators
1 drop pod
1 LSS

For Vanilla SM, I would probably run something like:
Librarian (Null Zone, Avenger) - 100
2x Tactical Squad -Flamer, Combi-Flamer, Missile Launcher with Razorback - 440
3x Landspeeder with MM/HF -210
Geared slightly towards beating horde, but could be pretty easily switched around into something better equipped to deal with heavier armies. If you wanted to do something fun you could go for:
1-Chaplain w/MB 105
1x Scout Squad (10) BP/CCW, Sgt w/PF/MB 170
1xLand Raider Crusader w/Multi-Melta(260)
1xTactical Squad Flamer, Combi-Flamer, Missile Launcher, Rhino -215
Chaplain mitigates some of the issues with Scouts in CC and many armies won't be ready for a LRC. It's probably not really very competitive, but /shrug

Any more ideas for BA/SW? (Im more interested in these, you seem to get more bang for your buck)
Im more interested in a SW army now and was wanting to incorporate two GH squads with meltas as a core but am unsure where to go from there.
