Hey everyone,
So I have accumulated a fair bit of space marines but want to increase the number of points and variability in play style because I like to switch it up and have the players I am playing with not know exactly what I am going to take.
These are the models I currently own in my collection:
HQ
1 Librarian
1 Chapter Master/Captain
Troops
20 Tactical Marines
5 Scouts w Snipers
Elites
5 Terminators
Fast Attack
2 Land Speeders
3 Bikes
Heavy Support
1 Vindicator (converted from rhino)

So I am really not sure what I should add to my army. Maybe a dreadnought or a devastator squad maybe even another 5 terminators? Maybe a few more bikes but I have found they are pretty fragile.
Any help would be awesome!

There actually isn't any fliers with the people I play with so not sure about getting a flier....not that it's out of the question.
What kind of things does a storm talon bring to the table?

I am mostly asking because I haven't played marines in a while and haven't even picked up the new book yet so not sure about the chapter tactics and what is fun and good to use in the new book

I really like the 2 landspeeders I have they always do a good job!
Maybe another group of 10 Marines would be good to?

Ya I play 1-1.5k games your right. I actually am going to order the book tmrw with some necron stuff for a buddy.
So should I get 3 or 6 more bikes?

I think the storm talon might be a cool unit though! Does it do some decent damage?
Might pick up a razorback as well.
I have wanted a thunderfire cannon since I got space marines but could never justify the $70 tag on it
Might use this though as a replacement
