Been a LOOOONG time since I played this game... apparently a new SM codex came out! And bikers are good now! So I counted up the bikes I have, and It looks like I can make quite a few fun lists if I do some conversion. Here's the first one I'm thinking of, after some tweaking.

Already got the first set of 5 bikers sitting in simplegreen to strip off the gakky paintjob I put on there years ago



HQ: Chapter Master (Bike, Burning Blade, Stormshield, Artificer Armor) - 240 pts
HQ: Librarian (Bike) - 85 pts

Elite- Dreadnought (2x TL AC) - 120 pts

Gives me 32 bikers, a fair amount of anti-vehicle fire, and some decent air cover from the raven. Opinions?

Chapter Master needs Shield Eternal instead of Storm Shield.

Predators are terrible. Storm Talons and Thunderfire Cannons are better choices for similar points.
