Hi, i've recently joined this forum and and thinking of making a 2000 point army which to the point is strong, i'm thinking of adding a thunderfire cannon, predator and vanguard. Any ideas

1. There is a 40k army list section you should take this to.
2. You're already thinking of adding those things, what do you need more ideas for?
3. What else is in your army? Just saying "I want to use X" with no context whatsoever makes it kind of hard to recommend, well, anything.
4. What kind of army build are you going for?
5. Which Space Marine army is this for? Codex? Blood Angels?

Lurk more and figure out where stuff like this goes, and how you can phrase a question intelligently.

This is what ive got in list form
HQ
Kardan Stronos-with a terminator armour and a plasma gun and power fist and melta bombs-155 (equipped to terminators)
Elites
Venerable Dreadnought Bannus-with twin linked lascannon and extra armour- 210
Terminators-10(not including Kardan Stronos) terminators with sergeant each carrying a storm bolter and a close combat weapons and an cannon and heavy flamer-410
Ironclad Dreadnought Agaphon- With seismic hammer and hurricane bolter-155
Troops

Fast Attack

Dedicated Transport
Rhino-with extra armour and storm bolter-60
I play codex marines and iron hands chapter, i meant any improvements to make me much better because at the moment, i'm not winning much. Sorry for confusing you

Hey, no problem! I'll go over a few things to help you out:
- A combi plasma and power fist on a captain is an unusual loadout, but it's super cool. A power weapon might be a better idea though, so you don't waste his initiative of 5.
- You don't need extra armor on a venerable dread loaded for shooting. You're probably not going to move much, unless he's got a ccw too I guess.
- I'd probably take two assault cannons over a heavy flamer, but that's just me.
- I'd give the sergeants of your tac squads power fists, and take a second heavy/special weapon in each. The melta squad can have a free missile launcher, heavy bolter, or multimelta, and the other can have a free flamer, or a plasma gun or melta gun if they pay the points.
- Rhinos don't need a second storm bolter exactly, and by cutting the extra armor from it you save 15 points you can spend on guns and such elsewhere in the army.

Hope that helps!

Cheers, Anything else that i can do!!!
