I have been wanting to try this for some time now - taking a 10 man command squad and giving them infiltrate with an Apothecary and a Marshall/Castellan in artificer armor. Rapid Firing marines on your doorstep turn 1 anyone? I was wondering if any of you guys had tried something like this and what the general thoughts on the tactic are?

Short of dumping 300+ points in that squad, you will find it rather underwhelming.
You could stick a teleporter homer in there to deep strike some termies turn 2 for xtra fire support (if they come in).
Overall a big point sink for what they can do.

The only time I take command squad is with a termie Marshall or MoS for xtra cyclone launchers or ACs.

Oh no, the horrifying rapid-fire Bolter marines are on my doorstep, whatever will I do?!

You could get the same effect with 10 normal guys in a Drop Pod for less. You'd trade FNP for being scoring, but Bolters really aren't that scary.

For thirteen years I had a dog with fur the darkest black. For thirteen years he was my friend, oh how I want him back.
