Total Roster Cost: 1841

PLAN:
Put the 2 non-infiltrating and the dreads behind or in cover and then infiltrate the other 3 units according to how my enemy sets up. Landspeeders will be set up to take up the flanks. Then with the homers (insert Simpson joke here <!--emo&:lol:--><!--endemo--> ) I will deep strike the termies to areas that need fire support.

Love that speeder...quite similar to what I'm doing for my Emperor's Tabby Cats. (mine're gonna be Space Rangers doing the Superman pose with an extra half a jump pack stuck to each side of their body...as soon as I finish sculpting clothes on my "Shield Maidens" (allied ISTs))

As far as the list goes...60 points for teleport homers and LD9...not TOO bad I guess, considering that's what a Captain costs. I like your dreads - are they huge furry monsters too? I'd have a personal bias towards grabbing an Assault Squad or an 8 man bolter/flamer/fist squad or something like that in case your intimidation tactics and firepower aren't enough to deal with enemy assaulters. You could cram more stuff in there by trimming the fat, but if there are soft scores for it, I'd just leave the list as is and have some fun. Hard lists = strong hate.

Hey thanks for the reply.

 

I never played SM except for SW, but it will be fun. to watch the faces of the SM players when they look at my army

 

About the dreads, I just ordered 160 dollars worth of bitzs to finish my little army. I will post more pics when I get done with them.

*light goes on*

Something that MIGHT be worth a thought: If you drop three teleport homers (keeping two on the infiltrators) you save an even 60 points. That, plus the nine points you've got floating and the smoke launchers from the dreadnoughts gives you enough to upgrade one Terminator to a Captain with a pair of lightning claws. edit - then you'd also free up an elites slot, allowing you to deploy both dreads after you place your two lascannon squads.
