Hi,

I've been having some trouble figuring out a list that I like, I've tried Vulkan, but it's just not my style of play. So I came up with this. (note that I play kind of casual )


Space Marines 1500

HQ

Kayvaan Shrike 195

Elites

Dreadnought Rifleman 125

Assault Terminators, 6x Thunder Hammer, Storm Shield 200

Troops

10x Tactical Marines, Missile Launcher, Melta, Rhino 210

10x Tactical Marines, Missile Launcher, Melta, Rhino 210

Scout, Snipers, Missile Launcher, Camo Cloaks 100

Fast Atttack

Land Speeder, Heavy Bolter, Typhoon Missile Launcher 90

Land Speeder, Heavy Bolter, Typhoon Missile Launcher 90

Heavy Support

Predator, Lascannons 120

Predator, Lascannons 120


I was wondering if it would be good to have Kayvaan join the terminators, so you infiltrate and you can probably charge something turn 1.


Any thoughts are welcome!

Really like the list and all I can say is that I would hate to go against this list.
I'm personally not a fan of the shrike and terminators tactic because its not my style, but it is a really effective combo.

Ok sounds nice! I will play test this list one day. thanks.

It will certainly be a fun list to use, but perhaps 6 fleeting termies do not justify Shrike's cost.
The rest of the army is a standard gunline.

I believe 2 tac squads are enough for 1500 points game, you maight drop the scouts and add some more termies.

Better hope you don't face anyone with DP stern guards or storm troopers or a MM Dread in a pod or DE period or BA or Tau gunline, or melta wolf guard or drop wolves or Ravenwing or White scars. Then your lack of fire volume means that Ork hordes and nid waves will get you too.

I don't like this list. Anyone who's thinking about facing MEQ will be ready for this.

True, but this i just a list that I will play purely for fun.
