Looking for advice, semi-competitive list as follows:

HQ
CM w/ bike, AA, Shield Eternal, TH, Auspex

Troops
4x
5 bikers with 2 grav, combi-grav

Fast
2 Stormtalons with Skyhammer missiles

Heavy
Centurion Dev squad (3 guys) w/ grav cannons, missile launcher, omniscope
Stormraven with hurricane bolters
TFC

This leaves me with around 150 pts for either

1) Coteaz and some upgrades
2) 2 land speeders, 1 with 2x heavy bolter, 1 with assault cannon + heavy bolter

or third option
3) upgrade 2 bike squads with assault bikes + MM

Opinions?

I didn't think Coteaz was in the Space Marines book...

try the bikes option.

change 2 bike squads to 4 man with x2 plas, then add assault bike with MM to them, still scoring, 1 more wound, and you have some extra anti armor which your list severely lacks.

Coteaz is not in C:SM but can be taken as an inquisitorial detachment all by himself. That would give Centurions TL.

And I do not believe I lack anti-armor, not with the number of grav weapons. I do not expect to meet more than two wave serpents as an example, and 2 Stormtalons and 1 Stormraven can threaten them. Also my bikers should get in melee with their krak grens asap.


Automatically Appended Next Post:
A couple of options more:

4) Scouts with cloaks and snipers, aegis + comms
5) 2x scouts with cloaks and snipers

So, more thoughts?

I modified this list a bit, it now has Iron Hands as primary and White Scars as secondary. I also decided to take Coteaz for Divination goodness.

HQ
(IH) CM with tools <- The beatstick
(WS) CM with almost the tools <- tank for cents and protect backfield
(inq) Coteaz <- sit there with cents, protect backfield

Troops
(IH) 2x 5 scouts with camo cloaks and snipers <- either infiltrate or secure home objectives
(WS) 2x 5 bikers with 2 grav, combi-grav <- deny enemy objectives, get in melee by turn 2

Fast
(IH) 2x Stormtalons with skyhammer missiles

Heavy
(IH) Stormraven with default setup + hurricane bolters
(IH) Centurion devastators with 3 grav-cannon, 3 MLs and omniscope
(IH) TFC

If I can start, Coteaz will prescience the cent squad and both CMs drop orbital bombardment on the enemy, being initially attached to that squad. Otherwise the CMs will tank for the bikers and TFC gets prescience.

Should be fun?
