List certainly isn’t a new idea but I wanted to put my own spin on it. Basic idea is to put as much mortal wounds downfield as possible in a pure Space Marine list. This list is very CP dependent so I went with a Battalion and Bobby G for as many CO to start with and for the possibility to gain them back as well. Tactics are scouts focus on characters using Big Bobby G to help plink off as many as I can a turn. Devs are using most of the CPs and turn between the Hellfire and the Flak Missile strat. Combine that with the cherubs and you get quite a bit of mortal wounds downfield. If the opponent focused down on them the banner lets them shoot with more mortal wounds on a 3+. The Apothecary is there to revive them next turn to do it all over again. The vets are actually quite good at anti tank with the +1 wound strat. The bikers spit out a ton a S4 gaks for being very cheap. Thoughts?

Why do you have 10 HB and 1 ML ? You can only play hellfire shells once per phase.

Heavy bolters are bad. For dev squads you want to focus on lascannons and take one or 2 units that have a HB and rocket each take the rest with 4 las (you could also do plasma cannons - they aren't bad ether). Youll also want some ablative wounds in those units like 2-3 per unit.

Scout bikes are great but 1 bug unit will do just fine (I ususally run like 6) - drop the sterngaurd to - they are really bad. Drop a few bikes to add the las cannons over HB
