Well here is a rough idea of a team list I threw together for a team tourny. I am not sure yet who my other team mate is, so I dont know how to build my list in support of his.

Marshal: Storm bolter, PW, Adamantine mantle
Command squad:x4, 2 meltas, Fighting Champ, SGT(PW)
Drop Pod

Troop: 8x2 melta fist (8 crusaders, 2 neo's)
Troop: 8x2 melta fist

Tech marine: full servo, PW, SS
EC-ACC

This list would be 999 points if i added correctly.

Idea of dropping in the Command squad, pop something on turn 1 (i hope) then running the EC, and techmarine with the 2 crusader squads. Not much to go off of for 1000 points....

Please comment!!

This would be my suggestion at 1k points.

HQ
195 - Master of Sanctity (Power Fist, Storm Shield, Artifier Armor, Admantite Mantle)
140 - Emperor's Champion (ACC)

Troops
204 - x7 Crusaders (x1 Power Fist, x1 Plasma gun, Krak Grenades) - Rhino (Smoke Launchers)
204 - x7 Crusaders (x1 Power Fist, x1 Plasma gun, Krak Grenades) - Rhino (Smoke Launchers)

Fast Attack
85 - Landspeeder Typhoon (Cyclone Missile launchers, Multi-Melta)
85 - Landspeeder Typhoon (Cyclone Missile launchers, Multi-Melta)
85 - Landspeeder Typhoon (Cyclone Missile launchers, Multi-Melta)

Total 998

At 1k points you have put all of your points into a command quad that will drop onto the table first turn and die from shooting. And based on what you put in your list, you have no vehicles at all.

With this list everyone will at least start off in an armored vehicle that can get them across the table. Put the EC in 1 rhino and the MoS in the other. With Litanies of Hate the MoS's unit will be able to re-roll their failed attacks on their first assault if they get to, it will help alot.

The 3 speeders will be more of the bread and butter to the list. If anyone wants to be crazy and bring some big armor like a Land Raider. You should have no problems blowing it up turn 1 or 2 with the 3 different Multi-Meltas. And if not, the can take pretty much anything else out as far as vehicles go with shooting. Where the list is going to struggle is when you come across an army with fliers, such as Necrons. If you do, I would keep all 3 of my speeders in reserve possibly and go for going 2nd. Will allow you to DS them after your oppenent and try to shoot them down with 6's to hit. Which isn't great, but not a terrible option.

This is not a bad starting point. i would say take the Multi-Meltas off the Landspeeders, I do not find they have good synergy with Typhoon Missile Launchers. But I also tend to run Meltas defacto in my Crusader squads...I also tend to enter play vai mass Drop Pods too so if you aren't looking at Drop Pods maybe you want the MM.

Thank you for the comment. I am really not sure how to run Templars at 1k points. Its really a point crunch where we are dropping at least 250-300+ points in to the EC and a HQ. really we only have 700 some points to work with!

I have no time to play test an 1000 point game before this team match up, so I needed something solid to show up with. Ill check this list over. I think i will drop the meltas, I normally dont run them on my LS, and just use them as rear guard fire support.

With being able to drop as a DS option as well as move 12'' and fire both the Cyclones and the MM, why would you not want to for only 15 points? Maybe it's just me, seems silly not to want that. And its its a team based game, drop the rhinos, go with drop pods, change the plasma guns to melta guns, and reserve your entire 1k BT list. Turn 1, you get 1 pod somewhere, and turn 2 you can possibly get all of it to fall out of the sky on the enemy to help your partner.

@roguejm11: ..... Thats actually a pretty decent idea! So you can DS the Typhoons in, move 12", and still fire both weapons? This I did not know!

I think this would have a pretty decent outcome.

What about the MoS? Since ill be droping the rhinos for Pods, ill have, 40 extra points... ( right? a pod is 30, and a rhino is 50... I think) So Should i beef him up more?

Uh no.

You can deepstrike (which counts as cruising speed) and fire 2 weapons (whereas in the past you could only fire 1 + defensive weapons).
Or you can deepstrike and move another 12" in the shooting phase (which I guess would count as your turbo-boost move in that case) to gain a 4+ jink save.

At that point scale I don't imagine people would expect Termies, so for shock value you could go:

HQ:

Marshall, TDA, TH/SS, adamantium mantle
4x Termie command squad, SS on sgt, 2 ACs, 1 CF, tank hunters
EC, AACNMTO

TROOPS:

5 initiates, LC, PG
10 initiates, PF, MG, frags

FAST ATTACK:

Typhoon land speeder
