Hey,

I'm attending a tournament on Sunday and I'm looking to win it. This is my current list and also an open invitation for anyone to criticize it with the goal of pushing it even further.


Gameplan: I roll for veil and prescience and just slam the deathstar down peoples throats. I scout the rhinos onto objectives and be really shooty. Bikes scoot around and pop tanks while grabbing objectives.

I think the list can be ObSec light so battlecompany might be rough, the firepower in this list is real though.

Note: this will be an ITC event so frame criticism in that sense.

Presently, I do not believe you can give an apothecary any gear options. This is a topic of debate right now, so until the FAQ/Errata is released for marines, you may want to clear that up with TO before you show up with that unit.

Aside from that, it looks like a pretty solid list!

I too am of the oppinion that the apothecary cannot take equipment (but again, we need a FAQ to clarify). I would recomend getting into the practice of only taking 4 grav guns.

Regardless, I have only ever needed 3 SS in the bikestar, and having 1 melta bomb has been a very useful 5pt investment.

Other than that, no GravCents?

^^^^
Tbh I'd swap out the dev squads for tac marines and go for a cent star in a drop pod with a librarian w/ hunters eye.

The ITC explicitly allows apothecaries to be upgraded with other options so I'm just going by that.

I feel the dev cents are just too top heavy. Great offensive output but their mobility and defense are mediocre at best. Ironically they are probably one of the best targets for grav which is in spades currently.

I feel that a unit like that would only compound on the weaknesses of the army and not add anything dynamic to it.

My only concern was if I had enough fast moving units to grab objectives with.
