Hello everyone

I'm a starting player trying to gobble up everything on the hobby and make a list in order to create a shopping reference.

General C&C would be greatly appreciated.

I'd like to keep the Terminator squad in the list since i already own it, ditto for the land speeder but i'm not as attached to it. I'm aware the multi-melta won't do much coming out of the pod but i don't like the idea of leaving half of it with a long-range at home (such as a missile or a plasma).

HQ
Chief Librarian Tigurius (in the Land Raider) 165

TROOPS
10x Tactical Marines w/ Meltagun + Multi-Melta & Sergeant w/ Combi-Melta (in Drop Pod #1) 170
5x Tactical Marines w/ Grav-gun & Sergeant w/ Combi-Grav (in Drop Pod #2) 95
5x Tactical Marines w/ Grav-gun & Sergeant w/ Combi-Grav (in Drop Pod #3) 95
5x Scout w/ Camo & Sergeant w/ Combi-Grav + Power Sword(In Land Speeder) 90

DEDICATED TRANSPORTS
3x Drop Pod (attached to Tactical Squads), 1 w/ Locator Beacon 115
Land Speeder Storm (attached to Scout Squad) 45
Land Raider (attached to Centurion Devastators & Tigurius) 250

ELITE
5x Assault Terminators w/ TH-SS (Deep Striking to Drop Pod Location w/ Beacon) 225

FAST ATTACK
2x Stormtalon Gunship w/ Skyhammer Missile Launcher 250

HEAVY SUPPORT
3x Centurion Devastators w/ Amped Grav-Cannon (in the Land Raider, Synergy w/ Tigurius) 250

GRAND TOTAL 1750

Thanks!

Grav guns are not ideal on non-relentless units. Only getting two shots at half range if you move sucks. Better off with either plasma or melta on tactical marines (or flamers if you want some more anti-horde).

i d put tig with the assult terminators in the landraider and have the centurains behinde an eagis doing supporting fire

multi meltas on tac sqauds cant fire on hte drop as it counts as moving and there heavy.

Id take one melta and one plasma or flamer that way you have some flexibility when you land as to where you can do the most damage since you have several drop pods. As for grav guns, ive noticed they get their best use on a bike sadly. Also, your anti tank may be a bit lacking, so maybe stick a TL- LC on the stormtalons or maybe do LC centurions instead.
