Here is my planned 1000 point SM force which will be Crimson Fists...

Captain,
The primarchs wrath, artificer armour, relic blade

Sternguard,
(5) combi-meltas, razorback - lascannons

Tactical squad,
(10) plasma gun, missile launcher
Razorback - lascannons

Scout squad,
(5) camp cloaks, 4 sniper rifles, missile launcher

Centurian devastation squad
(3) 2 lascannons, grab cannon, omniscope, 3 missile launchers


Any thoughts, comments hints/tips would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers for looking,
Mat.

sema perty good. something to consider, i would take out the ML on the sargents chest. he has a grav gun, and so shoudnt be shooting at the same units as lascannon and MLs. or you could just go ahead and give all 3 grav cannons. dont even need omni scope or MLs. saves alot of points, and is very effective.

where is the captain going?

and i think it would be better for the stergaurd to have a drop od, rather than a razor back. with the drop pod, you can come in ffirst turn wit ha guranteed vechlcle gone, with the razor back you have to hope the av 11 vecivle doesnt get blown sky high leaving them out in the open.

how come crimson fists? feels like imperial fists, or even salamanders would beneifit you better.

I think the army needs the lascannons in way of anti-armour, but my thinking was, if there were no other targets, the sgt could have a pop with his missile launcher.

The captain was going in with the sternguard, by the way, I like the idea of the drop pod.

As for Crimson Fists, I really like the fluff attached to the chapter... Which I always try to go for.

cheers

My only comment would be to swap out the missile launcher in the tactical squad for a heavy bolter instead. The reason is that you can't shoot frag missiles if you move, but you can snap shot the HB. Also, you've got the plasmagun and a truck load of bolters in that same unit so you really want to be shooting at infantry - not armor. And since you've got a fair amount of AP2 from the plasmagun, you don't need the S8 AP3 from a single krak missile really.

And the HB gives you a little bit better over watch to protect you from assaults.

Well, having tweaked the army list a little here goes...

Captain, (in with sternguard)
The primarchs wrath, artificer armour, relic blade.

Sternguard
(7) two combi-melta, Drop pod.

Tactical squad,
(10) heavy bolted, plasmagun, Sgt - combi-grav, Razorback - lascannons

Scouts,
(5) camp cloaks, missile launcher, 4 sniper rifles

Centurion devastators,
Omniscope, 1 grav cannon, 2 lascannons, 3 missile launchers

TOTAL 998 POINTS.

Any other hints/comments??
Cheers,
Mat.

Looks good to me list-wise

Now my only comment are about the centurion models.

First of all, they look chunky and not really appealling. But yeah...that's just my opinion.
Second, and this IS important. It's not at all clear that the model kit will have enough bits to take the exact wargear options you want. It might, but it might not. Be prepared to convert.

I've already got them, you get enough parts for three lots of every weapon combination in the list...
