What do yall think? Is there enough AT and so forth for a 1000 point list?
After looking over the initial Plasma-Spam I figured that there was not enough AT and it would die at anything AV13 or more. So that explains the Melta and Lascannons, but at least they are high-energy weapons like the plasma variants and hit the mark in the AP category.


And on the side, how does this look for escalating in 250 point increments?

I think you should ditch the storm trooper squad and add in 2 scout lascannon sents with camo. They can sit in cover with a 3+\4+ cover save sniping all game. They will last far longer than the stormies. Marbo is even better in small games i also think you might get more bang out of heavy bolters on the chimmys as I wouldn't like mine to be within template range of the enemy. Also helps with popping enemy transports. Do you have any leman russes? I think as you increase there could be a call for 1 or 2?

I like it, only thing you may want to change is swap the sentinel squad for hydra squad x2 for better AA so your vendetta can kill tanks.

Hydras suck balls. If your opponent doesn't take flyers then you have wasted 75 points per hydra as they need 6's to hit ground targets.

I would drop the stormtroopers & marbo for another vendetta and swap one/two of the plasma vets to melta .... also making all/some of your vets demolitions could be worth looking into.

Well, the meltavets would only be for casual play, since Plasma is all I got.

The idea with the stormtroopers was to work in Synergy with Marbo.
Step 1: The two of them both hopefully arrive on time with Astropath
Step 2: Pop Land Raider with Melta Stormtroopers
Step 3: Demo-charge the Terminators inside.

What? The army does not have termies? Well adjust as necessary.
What? They are all nidz? Well that is one army.... This works for others. Besides I can Demo a mob of raveners and melta the rest or I can put wounds on some tervigons.

I do not know if that alters your opinions on the Stormtroopers or not. Depends on what your thoughts are.

I only have 1 Vendetta pretty much. (Conversion with ww2 p51 Mustang.)

I need to get my hands on Russes, but I do not have those ATM. The only thing I do not have in this list are the Chimeras, I have more infantry, but I was planning on using razorbacks until I got the right transports. (aka: paycheck)
