Ok this guy really really needs an Iron Halo, you have already spent a fair few points on him so instead of the mantle bring a halo. Because if he gets axed by a powerfist at least you get a save first, currently he is going to be ganked by anyone with a power weapon. Also give him Terminator Honours.

Command squad, 5 marines, plasma gun, Apothecary, standard bearer, champion, terminator honours(for seargent), Razorback. 240

First what weapons does the Rhazorback have, and what upgrades? Second if your going to buy a veteran sergeant than I suggest giving him at least a power weapon but preferably a Fist. Also you could put power weapons on your upgrade characters in here too, though that would add another 70pts or so to the squad.

Chaplain Reclusiarch, bolt pistol, jump pack 106

Give him Terminator Honours otherwise he is perfect.

Elites
10 Terminators, 2 assault cannons, 2 chainfists 450

Big squad, very expensive but also really tough under most circumstances. If big termie squads are the way you want to go then this is great. I might normall recommend you split this into 2 squads, but you already have three elites.

Dreadnought, smoke launchers, Extra armour113

Good nothing really to make this better

10 veterans, 3 lightning claws, 2 powerfists, 3 power weapons 320

You have way more weapons than is allowed in this squad. You can give one guy an Fist or Claw, and one other a power weapon. Also you have no Vet Sarg? You should have on with a power weapon. Also you dont specify what skill they have.

Troops
10 scouts, Heavy bolter 135

ok, good cheep scoring unit, i like it.

5 scouts, 4 sniper rifles, missile launcher 105
this unit is ok, but having used the exact same loadout I can tell you that the sniper rifles are wasted in conjunction with the missile launcher.

10 marines, heavy bolter, plasma gun 165

For the love of god man, buy some veteran sergeants with fists!!!!!!!!!!!

Fast attack
10 assault marine squad, 2 plasma pistols,Terminator honours(seargeant) 1 power weapon 255

Fine, I personally like the Fist more than a straight up power sword, but thats mostly a personal preference thing.

Heavy support
10 devastators, 2 heavy bolters, 1 missile launcher, 1 lascannon 235

No, no, no, no, no!!! You really dont want to mix and match weapons like this. Bring three or four of all the same weapon or a mix of similar weapons (lascannons and Missile Launchers for example) but never bring two anti infantry weapons and two anti tank weapons in the same squad.

vindictator, extra armour, hunter killer missile, pintle mounted storm bolter, smoke launchers 158

The pintle and the Hunter killer are useless upgrades, remove them. Otherwise your good to go.

land raider, extra armour, hunter killer missile, pintle mounted storm bolter, smoke launchers253

Same thing here. Get rid of the Hunter killler and the pintle and your ready to go. However you might want to look into a Crusaider instead. Its got better transport capacity and way better weapons.

Overall I would say you have spent way too many points on useless upgrades and expensive units. Right now 40K is more about quantity over quality of troops. And while most of your stuff will hit really hard, your army is still just normal space marines. I would suggest removing the Veterans all together, splitting the terminators into two 5 man squads. Getting the Tacticle squad a Rhino. Bumping the command squad with some more power weapons and warm bodies. Put the command squad in the Land Raider and change out the scouts for another squad of Tacticle marines, If your intent on Bringing Devastators I would remove the vindicator and bring two squads of Devs. Both at 6-men. One with Heavy Bolters and the other with lascannons/missile launchers. So your list would look something like this

For the Devastator squad I mixed and matched because it can decimate infantry with the frag missile and heavy bolters + the lascannon generally gives a confirmed kill.


Wrong way of looking at it. What this configuration means is that you waste the lascannon when firing against hordes and waste the heavy bolters when firing against tanks. You're shooting yourself in the foot.

On another note, TH on Terminators is too good not to take (and is going away in the new codex, so enjoy it while it lasts).]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/212073/296248.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/212073/296248.page GMT new chapter CC related. Winter Rangers for a more Shooty chapter!
Hope it helps!
