I've been thinking about expanding my BA army to 1000 point,
So I made this army list:

HQ
Librarian with melta bombs and Shield of Sanguinus and Unleash Rage psychic powers
=105p

Elites
Chaplain with melta bombs
=105p

Sanguinary priest
=50p

Sanguinary priest
=50p

Troops
Assault squad(5) with meltagun and powerfist
Roll in Razorback with twin-linked heavy bolters
=155p

Assault squad(5) with flamer and sergeant with melta bombs
and power weapon
Roll in Razorback with twin-linked heavy bolters
=145p

Assault squad(5) with meltagun and sergeant with melta bombs
Roll in Razorback with twin-linked heavy bolters
=135p

Death Company(5) with power weapon, infernus pistol, boltgun
and 2 with chainsword and boltpistol
Roll in Razorback with twin-linked heavy bolters
=185p

Fast Attack
Land speeder with multi-melta and heavy flamer
=70p

Total:1000 points

Things I already have: Chaplain, DC with PW, DC with boltgun, sanguinary priest assault marine with flamer and assault sergeant with PF
I know that 1/3 of the points are in 4 miniatures but those 4 really enchant the other squads.

twin-linked heavy bolters are awesome, but my friend used to run this kind of setup against me and I play orks...
a.k.a. I had my warboss nob squad literally walk through his entire army. He wasn't running that many razorbacks however. Still, I'd drop a troop choice for some support, maybe another two land speeders if you could find 5 points from somewhere.
Death company can't hold objectives though can it...well, I guess in that case it's a good list, just play it defensive against orks and probably aggressiva against Eldar.
Librarians are evil. (worth the points, in terminator armor even more worth it.)

First of all, LOVE the idea. Considering that BA razor backs are all fast... I think you should take 2 tanks with twin LC's just to be safe.

I would drop the DC entirely, and get more assault squads in razors, but YMMV. Looks fine as it is though, just something you might wanna consider.

After reading your posts I came up with a new list:

HQ:same
=105p

Elites
2xSanguinary priest
=100p

Troops
Assault squad(5) with meltagun and powerfist
Roll in Razorback with twin-linked heavy bolters
=155p

2xAssault squad(5) with flamer and sergeant with melta bombs
and power weapon
Roll in Razorback with twin-linked Las-plas
=360p

Assault squad(5) with meltagun and sergeant with melta bombs
Roll in Razorback with twin-linked heavy bolters
=135p

Fast Attack

2xLand Speeder with multi-melta and heavy flamer
=140p

Total: 995 points

Replaced DC with an assault squad, removed chaplain= 145 points left over. Upgraded 2 razorbacks with TL Las-plas and got another Land speeder

Well, Sang. Priests are redundant in a mech army.

Interesting list, I would like to see some play testing though, I never saw BA Mech efficient under 1500 pts.

I like the new lists myself, too bad your not in CHina I'd like to play against it.

I agree. What use are THEY going to be, when your all cooped up in a tank?
