Hey So I'm gearing up for a warhammer weekend with m buds. Looking for a pretty traditional jumper list. I won't be using DOA with them. Just using the assault squads to advance onto objectives and using some long range devastator support. I'll have the librarian advance with a priest, and I'll keep one priest back to babysit some devs. I have snuck in some plasma cannons into the list. I'll be going up against some TEQ and other marines, plus some hard hitting chaos units like termies and zerkers. There will probably be some landraiders. And one Ork player who uses battlewagons. Mostly though we play for fun so there is not a ton of spam that you see in competitive lists, usually a lot of toys in everyone's army.

HQ-
Librarian w/ Jump pack. (WIll probably take prescience) 125

Elites-
2 Priests (1 w/ Jp) 125

Troops-
Assault Squad 2 meltas, PW 225 pts

Assault Squad 2 meltas PW 225 pts

Assault Squad 2 PGs PW 235 pts

Fa-
2 Attack bikes with Multimeltas 100 pts

HS-
Dev Squad w/ 4 ML's 130 pts

Dev Squad w 4 PC's 150 pts

Dev squad w/ 3 lascannons 165 pts

The only thing I wish I could do is squeeze in some more attack bikes. As I've had a lot of success taking out even Landraiders and battlewagons with them. Its nice for them to drive up and smoke some expensive tanks. I was thinking maybe taking out the Missile launcher devs and getting some more attack bikes in there. Oh and I think this leaves me with 10 spare points. Meltabombs?

Let me know what you think!

Either none of your pictures are working or you posted this in the wrong sub-forum.

You do realise you have posted this in the modeling showcase section?

Moved, please pay closer attention to which section you are posting in in future, and good luck with your list!

Dump the ML devs and get a biker priest and more MM attack bikes.

If anything i would drop the LC Dev's for MM bike and/or Landspeeders or a mix of both. ML are good all rounders and the PC are great for 4 blasts. Drop LC's i say, won't need them if your planning on taking Fast Melta IMHO.

Really not a fan of devastators, but if you must take them then I would invest in an aegis defence line.

Don't dump lascannons. A lascannon is a true heavy weapon, capable of engaging *any* target with efficacy at 48". Plus, your MM bikes aren't guaranteed by any means to frag a LR in one go, so the LC are great back up to take off the last hull point or so if need be.

Yes, lascannons are cheaper in vehicles, but even on devastators they can be well worth it.

I'd swap the PGs on the 3rd assault squad for meltas. If you fire the PGs you can't charge into combat.

Attack bikes will do it better though. for the cost of that dev squad you can get 3 attack bikes.

3 LC
-2 hits needing 5's to glance and 6's to pen.

3 Attack bikes w/MM
-2 hits with 2D6 armour pen (coz being fast you'll be in melta range)
-average 2D6 roll= 7 + Str8= 2 pen hits
-AP1 means 4+ blows up that land raider= 50% chance with each hit.

Maths says LC Dev squad may take a hull point, maths also says 3 AB w?MM WILL destroy that land raider.

Hey guys. First off I apologize- I got the wrong sub forum when posting this lol. Anyways thx for the replies. I think guys bring up some good points concerning Lc's vs. attack bikes. I gotta say I've had really good luck with the MM attack bikes popping tanks. The draw back is that whatever is inside that LR is with in assault range afterwards.

Honestly though I think I may choose both! And drop the missile squad for two more attack bikes, and keep the lascannon squad too. I'm going up against pretty heavy tanks typically so I think the missiles may be the weakest link.

Missiles are the weakest link versus many lists. Don't forget that if your MM pop the LR, you can fire your lascannons and such to soften up the terminators that come out. You can also have casted the primaris diviniation power on the attack bikes to reroll your MM overwatch! And attack bikes get FNP from priests.

Based on the discussions, i think you should drop the ML Dev's, and instead take 2 more attack bike and maybe use the spare 30 points to upgrade the PW's to PF's on the squads. Drop the PG's as mentioned in favour of meltas on that squad.

Then try and squeeze in another JP for the other preist
