***List renewed at below***

Cause I'm currently building WoC, I didn't buy any of those new models yet.
But thanks to the down-cost of power armors, I got the idea below.

HQ:
LV1 Librarian - Divination
Command squad (5)
Chapter banner- Sacred standard- Standard of Devastation <---hum? A ultramarine icon on it? never mind...

Troop:
TSM(10)
SM: Plasma gun
Sgt.: Plasma Pistol <---all Sgt. are for precision shot. Special weapon hunt-down is always cool.
TSM(10)
SM: Plasma gun
Sgt.: Plasma Pistol
TSM(5) 70
SM: Melta gun
Sgt.: Plasma Pistol, Melta bomb <---Two small squads of armor Banzai-charge
TSM(5) 70
SM: Melta gun
Sgt.: Plasma Pistol, Melta bomb

Elite:
Dreadnought <---Banzai-chargers and melee supporters
Dreadnought

Heavy:
Devastator(5)
Missile launcher + flakk(4)
Sgt.: Boltgun
Devastator(5)
Plasma cannon(4)
Sgt.: Boltgun
Devastator(5)
Lascannon(4)
Sgt.: Boltgun

Fortification:
Aegis Defense Line + quad gun

That's beaftuful 1500 pts, and here's NO A PIECE OF PRICEY NEW MODEL! YEAH!
I know I will lose lots of men just to reach there and this suck when playing kill-point mission, but it's just fun!
Any idea to make this list more fun? or maybe a little bit more competitive? Just remember field no new models!

Cheers!

By new models do you mean the latest ones to have been released, or you dont want to get any more models and just use what you have? If its just the latest models you dont want to fork out for, rhinos would work well and they can be gotten cheap off ebay etc. If you want to only use the models you've got listed, one thing you could do is drop one tactical squad and split up the guys between the devastator squads. Currently they are vulnerable to fire as there is only 1 sergeant and the rest have weapons you dont want to loose. So bulk them out a bit so they last longer.
Another option, (if you have more tactical marines) is to field less devastators and then combat squad the tactical squads. Then you can have your armour banzai chargers and hold a heavy at the back with some supporting guys. By my reckoning, each tacitcal squad could cost around 200pts this way so you could field around 5.

If your attack is going too well, you have walked into an ambush

The easy way is always mined

Hi, rahxephon.
Of course new models mean latest released ones :-D
Come on, we all have rhinos! Just so many power-armors make me thought of foot-log wolf list and wrote this list lol. But indeed I should really give command squad a razorback to protect risk the std.
Less Devs? hum...for durability I would combine the two 5 men TSM to one squad, and there I get some points for dreadnought weapons or rhinos. IMO firepower from Devs is crucial in this list, so I think I should keep the Devs.

Thanks for your advices! cheers!
