With the new codex, I'm taking a small break from my Salamanders and looking at trying a small and fast biker army. With this list, I've got 19 bikes on the board running around.

White Scars CT

Captian on bike, storm shield, power sword - 140

6-man bike squad, 2x plasma, power sword on captian - 171

6-man bike squad, 2x plasma - 156 (Captain goes with these guys)

6-man bike squad, including multi-melta attack bike, 2x melta - 180

2 heavy flamer land speeders - 100

Total 747

Thoughts? After the 3 bike units and captain, I had 103 points left. I wanted to include at least 3 troop units and still stick with the fast attack theme so I tried putting in land speeders. With that many points leftover I also could have included scout bikers as well. Any advice is appreciated.

Some kind of a heavy melee weapon would be useful. you will have trouble against 2+ armor. Also, why not switch out one bike squads for a command squad on bikes?

Honestly, I didn't even think of adding in the command squad. They are a bit cheaper and I can then give the captain a thunder hammer possibly. Something to think of.
