Hi! Trying to build a list for my friend who is starting 40k, themed around Salamanders and is a little fluffy, but can win most of the time.
HQ
Vulkan
Troops
10 Tacticals w/ MM and Flamer, Combi-Melta and PF on sarge in a Rhino
10 Tacticals w/ MM and Flamer, Combi-Melta and PF on sarge in a Drop Pod w/ Beacon (Vulkan goes here)
Fast Attack
Land Speeder with dual MM (deep strike reserve)
Stormtalon with Typhoon Missile Launcher
Heavy Support
Whirlwind
Clocks in right at 1000.
Pod drops in the middle of the enemy, combat squads so Vulkan and the flamer wipe the nastiest infantry it can and the MM and combi-melta try to pop a hard target.
Beacon allows the Landspeeder to precision deep strike in and pop a hard target (or cause the opponent to waste a bunch of shots on the pod to prevent this)
Rhino moves up through the confusion while the whirlwind and Stormtalon clean up the rest.
He has all needed models for this list currently except the drop pod. All comments, criticism and advice is welcome and needed!
