Wanted a fast list that can combat a lot of the current meta. Lots of troops and fairly Killy. I think it's got a counter to everything that I currently face In my local tourney seen. If anyone can find something that it ant handle I'd gladly take the advice. Please note though I do know its not the most competative list but I wanted a fast marine list that isn't the typical bike spam list.

Ok lots of scoring and all with scout moves. If I get first turn I should have 50 marines rapid firing and a bike squad graving the hell out of my opponent. I can also use the rhino's to create mobile cover with turbo boost. I've got the two thunderfires for anti pathfinders and to get behind the annoying ageis. The stalker is an obvious one take out flyers. I'm not that bothered about flyers because I'm moving up so fast but just in case it's a nice cheap anti flyer.

It can't handle Tau or Eldar very well however against most things it will do pretty well.

I played something similar in a local tourney recently and faired well (2nd place). The best advice I can give you is that no matter how tempting it seems, DO NOT, i repeat, DO NOT disembark on your turn 1. The alpha strike is simply not powerful enough to warrant exposing all your scoring troops. Take pot shots out of your fire points and force your opponent to open up your bawkses before he can kill your mans. These kinds of lists don't win by being killy, they win by dying slightly less than your opponent and holding objectives. Also always combat squad in non kp games. Good luck!

Changed the list up I've now got 50 marines combat squaring when they leave there rhino's making lots of targets so I can hope for a turn 2 assault and a turn one rapid fire.
