I like the linebreaker bike units, theyre scoring as well. The TFC's and attack mike unit have a good chance to score first blood against the right units.

What do you think?

The bike squads are only troops if they are 5 man or lower.

Thats a nice list,the bike squads put in that bit of high mobility and the T-fires are always nice to have.I have not been brave enough as yet to run a full bike or bike / rhino list,but i want to in the future.

@Grimnarsmate,the captain on his bike makes the bikers troops,the number of bikes in the squad have no bearing on them being troops or not.

put some LR or Predator

You need 5 models or more to have a scoring biker squad. I think right now it is usually best to go full on 9 models to combat squad, here you have other scoring units so I would not worry.
In fact I would reduce down to the minimum, you want 2 special weapons and the attack bike, the other bikers are there mostly for extra wounds.

ADL_quadgun, would give some airdefence and somewhere for your guns to hide, even hide your razorbacks behind it.

I like the list, it is very different. You are relying on scoring to win, which is a good idea really.

After playing two games, Im wanting to make the following changes:

Space Marine Captain; Artificer Armour; Thunder Hammer, Lightning Claw; Space Marine Bike - the way weapons work now, he gets 5 attacks on the charge regardless of which he uses. This makes him really versatile

Ironclad Dread with 2 HF's in a Drop Pod - this guy can push a weak side or counter things like War-walkers or Manticores or Long Fangs. He might even get lucky and take out a Bastion.

2x Tactical Squad; Flamer; Missile Launcher; Sergeant; Combi-Flamer; Razorback; Twin-Linked Heavy Bolter - Im not sold on these guys yet, I may need to get more bikes. I do like having lots of troops though.
Bastion with Quad Gun
3 Snipers, 1 HB Scout and Telion ( this amounts to 2 HB's (maybe 3), a quad gun fired by Telion and 2 or 3 sniper rifle shots all fired by the scouts in the bastion)
7 Space Marine Bikes; Flamer x2; Attack Bike; Multi-melta; Sergeant; Melta Bombs
7 Space Marine Bikes; Flamer x2; Attack Bike; Multi-melta; Sergeant; Melta Bombs

3 Attack Bike Squad; Multi-melta x3 - these are needed to destroy opposing Bastions - once people catch on to the crazy goodness Telion is and alot of Eldar Characters in Bastions, we will see alot of these popping up. Theyre way better than ADL's.

2 Thunderfire Cannons - I dropped to 2 as the angle they have for shooting means you want them in the corners controlling the center of the table. I can do this with 2.

Looks good! Where are you playing nowadays?

Ive been gaming over friends houses mostly. I want to get back into League play though. Id like to begin making the trek to the Game Castle once a week after work. Id enjoy getting games in with you and Jamie again.

That'd be awesome.

League night is still Tuesday nights. I think we've got five weeks left in the current 1750 league, and we should have another one fairly soon after. Attendance has been a bit low recently, but I think folks are still adapting their armies, and a bunch of the less-deep-pocketed gamers have been waiting for the little rulebook in the starter set.

Ill shoot for next tuesday, tomorrow I have plans. FYI. Im going to Gamesday UK this year

Sweet.
