This is what I'm planning to take for my FLGS' weekly escalation league. I want to do good obviously, but really I just think it would be fun to surprise people with vehicle heavy marines. My local meta features a lot of marines, Imperial Guard, Tau, a few eldar and a couple Chaos Space Marines, Demons, and Space Wolf Players. I typically run lists like this very gunline-y, using the scouts to target weaker or smaller units, and either sitting back with my dedicated transports or moving up, depending on what the situation calls for. The all melta Tactical squad will probably move up regardless, so I can get the best use out of all the ap 1 goodness that squad has. For My Librarian, I was planning on rolling for powers out of biomancy. For a time, I ran him out of telepathy and I was mostly unsatisfied by it. Hopefully biomancy will give him a little extra kick, whether offensively or squad buff wise. His role will change depending on what powers he rolls. However, I would love to hear what psyker powers other people generally take for their vanilla marines.
