Hi guys. With all they hype focused on the vanilla marines, I thought about giving these flying bezerker a chance. I'd like your opinion on this little list. I must warn you that I tried to make this list based on what only comes in the boxed sets.

Librarian: Jump Pack

Sanguinary Priest x2 : Jump Pack x2

Assault squad : Power Weapon, Combat Shield, Melta bombs,

Assault squad : Power Weapon, Combat Shield, Melta bombs,

Devastator squad : Heavy bolter x4,
Razorback : Dozer Blader

Devastator squad : Lascannon x4,
Razorback : Dozer Blader, twin-linked lascannon

Total: 1000 pts

Well, looks quite good. What powers would you give to the Librarian. I usually run mine with blood lance and shield.

I thought of doing something like that. But since this is for casual games and that I like playing fair equal games, I thought that maybe I should just roll on Biomancy.
Also, do you think a reclusiarch would be a better choice ?

Unless you put the LIB in terminator armour and give him a storm shield ( or a dreadnaught) they tend to die easily.
So yes use a Chaplain IMO

Also drop the dozer blades the razorbacks shouldn't move too much. And one of your razor backs doesn't have a weapon listed.

Based on your list here is what it should look like with the Chaplain

-----------HQ------------
Reclusiarch 155
Jump Pack


--------------Elites---------------
Saguninary priest w/ jump pack x 2 150pts


------------Troops-------------
Assault Squad(sgt w/ power weapon) 115
Assault Squad(sgt w/ power weapon) 115

----------Heavy Suppor------------
Devastator(4 lascannon, Razorback w/twinlinked lascannon) 280
Devastator(4 heavy bolter, Razorback W/twin linked heavy bolter) 185

Thats 1k and a pretty solid.

you could down grade the lascannon team to missle launchers and just make two of them like this
Devastator(4 Missle Launcher, Razorback w/twinlinked lascannon)
Devastator(4 Missle Launcher, Razorback w/twinlinked lascannon)

That frees up 25 points to be spent like this
-----------HQ------------
Reclusiarch 155
Jump Pack
Melta Bombs

------------Troops-------------
Assault Squad(sgt w/ power weapon, meltagun) 125
Assault Squad(sgt w/ power weapon, meltagun) 125

That would be more effective IMO.
