Ok guys, I LOVE lists you just don't see everyday. Some of you who see this may remember me asking about blood angels bikers. Well, I went through with it =) I have a game coming up that's 1850 and I have the list setup for 2000. I'm wondering what you guys would cut down from the 2k list to make it 1850 =)

Google 'blood rodeo'. That really should be a blackploitation film.

priests on bikes, this keeps them out of trouble and makes them quicker.

Bring attack bikes or more bikes as a third fast option. The advantage bikes have is they can shoot and can provide cover so you want more to make it all work.

The terminators do not fit the list at all.

These are all guesses, as I say use google or your favourite search engine.

Oh this is the EXACT blood rodeo build =)
The termies are meant to basically deepstrike and take out the biggest threat and if they live be a huge problem behind enemy lines I have seen the 1750 list but then it becomes what do I add for 100 points lol

As MFletch said, I second in taking out the terminators. Unless you plan on having locator beacons. Also, you can take up to 3 sanguinary priest per slot fyi. I make sure that you at least have 3 full squads of assault marines for missions involving objectives.

As said, infernus pistols on assault marines are not worth the points, and you can save 5 points by having a meltagun instead. Hand Flamers are also not worth their price due to their low strength and low AP. For the Priests, if you are taking lightning claw, I give them a combi-weapon, as you need a pair for them to get the extra attack (I usually keep them at low end of points for other things).

If you lose the 5-man assault terminators, take off the lightning claw off the priests, Take off the infernus pistol for a meltagun and 3 hand flamers along with a melta bomb (along with removing a priest), you will regain 345 points total, or 195 points that you could use to give combi-weapons to your librarian, and take might of heroes for when you need more power fist attacks. By the way, you only need 2 priests at the points, and use those points to kit them out the 2 priests.

His list and thoughts.

That's the escalation from 1500-1750 and what he actually has to say about the build. My opinion of the terminators is like I said, They're a meat shield to move bikes up and take out priority targets.
