HQ
Chapter Master with eternal shield,hammer,jump pack,artificier armor - 245

ELITES
5x vanguard veterans with meltabombs - 135
Terminator squad with cyclone missile launcher - 225
Assault Terminator squad with 4 TH/SS and 1 LCs - 220

TROOPS
2x crusader squad of 10 initiates and 2 neophytes (marines and scouts) + LC,Melta bomb,sword brother upgrade,power fist and melta gun - 225
scout squad with veteran holding melta bomb - 125
tactical squad with plasma gun and veteran - 165
crusader squad of 10/2 veteran with melta bombs and power sword - 190

So i can theoretically score with 7 units if I combat squad tacs and scouts and still got pretty tough scoring units (power armor ftw) than I plan on charging
forward as much as I can with everything except with unit or two holding objectives....
Scouts can infiltrate then scout for early pressure and pretty much suicide or do objective holding.
Elites are there to crack armor or MCs and also to take fire. Terminators got some firepower to even water down big units and assault ones can charge pretty much anything.
And finally vanguards can take on EVERY vehicle with chapter master joined in for tanking. Also when i got so many units of same value, i am forcing opponent to choose, which is kinda cool for me.
Model count is 72 models.

Whot do you think?

Really? noone?

While I understand that Black Tide is very old school and attractive from a fluff standpoint I'm worried about all those bodies in the open. I'd say if you're playing for fun, go for it, you'll enjoy it and might do well. In a competitive environment I'm afraid all those models are gonna get shredded fairly quickly.
