Hi,

im playing 1850 pts Space Marines, Ravenguard

so far I have this list, but still have 200 pts left, what do I take?


HQ
Chapter Master: jump, AA, Teeth of Terra, Shield Eternal

ELITE
10 Sternguard, heavy flamer

TROOP
10 TAC, flamer, Lascannon, Razorback w. TL LC
10 TAC, Razorback w. TL AC
5 Scouts, shotguns, combi-flamer, Land Speeder Storm w. heavy flamer
5 Scouts, shotguns, combi-flamer, Land Speeder Storm w. heavy flamer

FAST
Storm Talon w. Skyhammer

HEAVY
TFC
Land Raider Redeemer w. multi melta


The Sternguard and CM goes in Land Raider.
Razorbacks scouts and LSS scouts infil or outflank.


Im thinking an Ironclad dreadnought in a pod to get enemy attention untill my transports gets forward. And a second Lascannon to the second combatsquaded TAC.


regards Kris..

Never liked to see Ravenguard without ASM but the Ironnaught would be a good addition.

A drop-pod for your sternguard, lower their numbers and give them a few comb-meltas and another heavy flamer. Add SS/TH terminators to ride with the CM. It's not a good idea to put sternguard in a land raider, especially since the CM is meant for CC and the Sternguard are more shooty.

200 points? 2 thunderfire cannons!

^My first thought

After that I'd say pick up a second stormtalon and add the balance in weapons to the stern guard.

Vanguard Veterans or another Sternguard Veteran squad would be my pick

The problem with sternguard in pods is Tau... they inercept them to death before I get a chance of using them :(

And If I pod them out of their LOS, then they are walking without a vehicle.
I could also take a rhino instead, outflanking it or scouting it forward with the razorbacks?

I love Vanguard, but they dont perform very well in my opinion :( Maybe a Vindicator to tag along with the other vehicles?

2x TFC are good, but I already have 1. So mayeb 1 more, but not 2

I think on taking 5 Devestators w. 2x LC 2x HB/MM in a Razorback with TL LC.

Then a rhino for the TAC that original had the RZ.

Im thinking that I could swap the CM to a Captain instead, leaving me with 145 points to use.... or stay with the CM to get that CC champ

Hmm jump pack cant go in transport, dammit!
