HQ - Sicarius = 200pts
Troops - 10 Marines w/, flamer & heavy bolter = 170 pts.
Troops - 10 Marines w/, flamer & heavy bolter = 170 pts.
Troops - 10 Marines w/, flamer & heavy bolter, teleport homer = 185 pts. (Infiltrate)
Troops - 5 Scouts w/ shotguns & teleport homer = 90 pts.
Fast Attack - Land speeder storm = 50 pts.
Elites - 5 Terminators w/ cyclon or assault cannon can't decide??? = 230 pts.
Elites - Dreadnought w/ plasma cannon & CC arm w/heavy flamer and extra armor = 140 pts.
Heavy Support - 5 Devastators w/ 3 lascannons = 195 pts.
I have 70 pts. left over and don't now what to do with them???

*So the Idea is to infiltrate Sicarius with his tactical marines just ahead of the army so they can start causing casualties. The other marines will move up and march with Sicarius to hold objectives. The storm will speed the scouts behind the enemy so they can set of the beacon and the terminators will beam right behind the army (incase the scouts die I have a beacon in the infiltrating tactical squad). The dreadnough will provide support in close and long range against heavy infantry. The devastators will blow the hell out of any vehicles on the table. I made this because my friend plays a horde ork army so I'm expecting them to be advancing quickly! But I also want this list to be able to deal with all other army.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/842100.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/842100.page GMT SM army list http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/842689.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/842689.page GMT SM army list http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/842691.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/842691.page GMT SM army list TL lascannons. Well I was thinking, since I have extra points, that I could through in a predator w/ chronus and two sponson lascannons, instead of the dev. squad or just add an extra lascannon to the dev squad.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/842697.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/842697.page GMT SM army list http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/842704.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/842704.page GMT SM army list
-Orkboy232 the reason I want the lascannons is because, I want this list to be my list I use against every army.

-Fearspect I know the predator destructors are good but I need an anti-vehicle aspect in my army and good anti-vehicle, encase of armor 14, and monoliths, and really tough monstrous creatures. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/842728.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/842728.page GMT SM army list http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/843115.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/843115.page GMT SM army list
I have tried what you said and it just does not work for me. The one shot that anti-tank weapons give is not enough for me to dedicate an infantry hunting based squad to anti-infantry/anti-tank. Like I said I've tried the anti-infantry/anti-tank and sometimes its not bad but that's on a good day my friend.

Why use your heavy weapon on 'anti-infantry' when you have 8 other bolters and a flamer in the squad. That is the only thing they can kill (and they are not even that bad at it). Meanwhile, a mech army will just take down your only threat against them quickly and have a field day.

Make them tactical, give them a chance against everything, and remember, they are not meant to fight alone (though they do fine) - they work even better with back-up.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/844031.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/844031.page GMT Re:SM army list

The_HoFF wrote:Alright, you both pose a good point. I just don't like the fact that my guys will kill themselves, that's my I'm stubborn with plasma weapons. But every time I've used plasma cannons they kill the hole squads points worth (Hmm just kinda proved myself wrong!). Ill switch the flamers out for plasma guns so I can keep the 24" range. Ill take a multi-melta or plasma cannon for my heavy weapon. What weapon combos work well for you guys?

The combos that work well for me are melta with multi-melta. But I still wish to try out a flamer with a multi-melta. But these combos work so well because I use Vulcan.

For you, I would still keep the flamers because if you absolutely need to get into cc you can still shoot the flamer and assault. With a plasmagun you can't since it's rapid-fire. Also, if you combat squad the tac squads then the flamer group has the opportunity to act as flame and assault them squad (though I wouldn't recommend it). As for the heavy weapon, just see what works best for you. I'd say multi-melta but I'm a little bias.

EDIT: I just realized you don't have rhinos for the tac squads not going with Sicarius. Get them some rhinos! And don't forget to throw in some dakka preds or vindies.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/845039.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/845039.page GMT SM army list tac squads with flamer, multi-melta, and one with flamer, plasma cannon, and for god sake add some rhino's, add two vindicators, and take out devs, use Cyclone missile launcher, alot more flexiable then the assault cannnon, can deal with horde and vehicles.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/845054.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/845054.page GMT SM army list
If I take rhino's then my heavy weapons will like hardly ever get fired. Why not take a razorback for the 5 marines that will actually be advancing? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/845113.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/845113.page GMT SM army list http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/845123.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/845123.page GMT SM army list http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/845256.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/248415/845256.page GMT SM army list CML so that should be good support.

one mistake that i have made several times is believing that infiltrating my marines forward of my lines is a good idea, it may look nice on paper but in practice it leaves that squad isolated and easily destroyed and against armies like orks it actually enables them to reach my lines that much faster. and im pretty sure Sicarius cant join them in infiltrating besides if you do you would stand a good chance of losing a tactical and your HQ to a possible first turn charge.

i would do something like this

Sicarius

10 man Tac squad
melta or flamer
missile
powerfist sarge
HBrazorback

10 man Tac squad
melta or flamer
missile
powerfist sarge
HBrazorback

10 man Tac squad
melta or flamer
missile
powerfist sarge
HBrazorback

Dread
assault cannon
heavy flamer

5 devistators
4 missile launchers

5 termies
cyclone

and still ~60 points to mess with
