]HQ = 90
Librarian, LVL 2 = 90

Troops = 450
10 man Tactical Squad, Flamer, Heavy Bolter, Rhino = 190

10 man Tactical Squad, Plasma Gun, Lascannon, Combi Plasma, Razorback, Lascannon and twin-linked plasma gun = 260

Fast Attack = 260
5 man Bike Squad, 2x Grav-guns = 135

Stormtalon Gunship, Skyhammer Missiles = 125

Heavy Support = 200
10 man Devastator Squad, 2x Plasma Cannon, 2x Missile Launchers = 200

That is 1000 points on the nose. I'm currently painting my guys up as Relictors, so i could go with any chapter tactics as they have no certain parent chapter. I've considered Ultramarines, White Scars and Imperial Fists (any pointers on which to run with would be much appreciated)

The plan is the devs anchor down on the back field with half the lascannon tactical squad, the other tactical marines go grab objectives and the bikes and stormtalon just generally go after whatever target is most appropriate.

Any help would be great, i currently own 1 tactical squad, the devs and the librarian but i'm preparing to drop some cash on the rest following feedback on here. Thanks!

im not really a fan of heavy weapons in tact squads since they cost alot more now (but thats me) and for tactics IF are my fav (if you do tact fists, go for all ML on the devs because tank hunters is awesome!)

Missile Launchers re bad in the new dex. Use Lascannons.

I think a ten man tact. would feel empty without any heavy weapon. But to each their own. I think the points balance out, since the whole squad if so much cheaper now.

Am i right in not upgrading to Vet Sgts? ATSKNF makes higher leadership feel a little less important.

Little more input? failing that i'll just go with it

I wouldn't mix the weapons in the Dev's, I'd go for 4 missiles or 4 las-cannons

Also, I would run with the two tac squads and give them both Razorbacks, combat squad them and leave 2 squads (with heavy weapons) to objective camp while the others go forwards to claim objectives
