http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/14.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net AoBR and am looking to expand my SM's. I do NOT have the codex yet so I used the old SM bulider from http://www.alice40k.tripod.com/

Any input would be welcome. This is just a tentative list. I am looking into getting the SM (and maybe Ork) codex(s) this weekend if we go to Springfield (MO) and my wife lets me. As well as maybe a Tactical squad and a rhino if I can sneak them in

AOBR Captain

5 Scouts

10 SM w/ 1 flamer + 1 missle in Rhino w/ pintle Storm bolter + smoke
10 SM w/ 1 flamer + 1 missle in Rhino w/ pintle Storm bolter + smoke

5 AoBR Terminators

Land speeder w/ Typhoon + Assult cannon
Land speeder w/ Melta

AoBR Dread

Predator w/ Heavy bolter sponsons

Landraider

The best thing about your list now is that it is flexible. It'll let you learn almost all the different types of units available to the SM army.

Scouts are neat, since they can infiltrate with the scout rule and take a teleport homor. Then you can deepstrike your terminators to backup your scout or just to get the terminators deeper into the action on the board.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/222027/436191.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/222027/436191.page GMT HB for infantry, etc...). Definitely going to get the codex's this weekend.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/222027/436234.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/222027/436234.page GMT
have you thought about using razorbacks instead of rhinos. they cost less than your rhinos and have better guns. you can combat squad your tactical squads so the half with the flamer go in the razor back and the half with the ML sit on an objective and shoot stuff.

what equipment do the scouts have? are you giving them all sniper rifles or something else?

your devastators are a bit all over the place. i would suggest you only give them one or two types of weapons so the become better at going one job, rather than being bad at doing lots. you dont need a razorback for them because they want to be stood still and shooting most of the time. use the points to buy them some extra bodies to use as ablative wounds.

you can no longer have a land speeder with a typhoon missile launcher and an assault cannon but you can have a multi-melta/heavy bolter and another heavy weapon on them. land speeders arent as good as they used to be but they may still have a place if you use them properly.

your land raider is fine, although you can (and i would) give it a multi-melta.

the predator is good because you dont have much anti-horde ability.

as a starting army it will do you well, but before you buy ANY more models get the most recent codex.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/222027/436237.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/222027/436237.page GMT
