Hi like almost every player (I think) I started with Space marines to be exactly The Dark vengeance box wich i shared with a friend. After some matches in 7th I stopped and started in 8th with tau. So I want to play my Space marines again and started to strip The paint First i thought playing them as salamanders. But then I decided to play Death Watch. So I wanted to ask You how many Points i would get with 20 marine, 5 terminators, 3 bikers, 1 librarian, 3 captains and The bobby g box. And if it would be an ok list. I would look The points myself up but I dont have The Codex.

Sorry for my bad English.

If you're playing with bobby G you're going to want to play with vanilla marines, specificly ultras, over death watch I think. I'd also run 1 or 2 of those captains as Leuitenants. TBH though just skip Bobby G. sure he's good but he's 400 points. and IMHO isn't worth taking if you're leaning towards another chapter anyway

Correct, his re-rolls only affect the ULTRAMARINES keyword.

Um, no. He is still doing stuff for other Imperial forces. And, frankly, there is little difference if you run him with Salamanders or Deathwatch, he will be similarly effective in either army.

As for the points, it will be similar, though DW pays a special ammo tax on their units. So, a bit more. DW terminators and bikers are a bit more viable thanks to it, though, their twin bolters really gain with it compared to vanilla SM.
