So, the idea with this list is to not die
I am taking only infantry so enemy anti tank is less points efficient, added to that I am thinking of Stalwart and Warded as tactics so it's harder for high strength weaponry to wound and I get a save vs mortal wounds.

HQ
Primaris Chapter Master, auto bolt rifle, power sword, 135

3x Eradicators, melta rifle 120
10x Hellblasters, hvy plasma incinerator 330


Tactics
The chapter master forms a fire base with the hellblasters and heavy intercessors, the rest form 2x assault groups, each with bladeguard, agressors and eradicators backing up the assault intercessors to head off and capture objectives with the characters split between the groups as appropriate to the mission/opponent


What do you think?


P.S. fluffwise I'm thinking Marines Errant - a chapter rebuilding after their gene stocks were raided would be mainly primaris, plus a mix of close assault units and gravis armour with no vehicles matches their fluff of boarding action specialists.

While you sleep, they'll be waiting...

Have you thought about the Axis of Evil pension scheme?

I probably wouldn't bother with Stalwart. It wasn't considered that useful when most marines were T4, if virtually your entire army is T5, how much is going to wound you on a 2 without it?

I think Stealthy is much more useful than Stalwart.

Getting a cover save from most weapons (esp good for low armour units) is really useful.

Personally i'd go for the bolters with Aggressors and make use of Bolter Fusilades.
