Depends on what you intend to do I guess. There's a few different styles of DP armies. But, don't put CC stuff in them. Sternguard seem to work well.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/253839/930354.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/253839/930354.page GMT
Seriously man you might wanna reword your question there. Noone will look twice otherwise.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/253839/930357.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/253839/930357.page GMT
"Fresh meat for the grinder" (the fresh meat being inexperienced troops likely to end up as cannon fodder (infantry usually) and the grinder, i suppose, would be the battle/war) I just thought that was a well known expression...

Yes meat as in infantry, tac-marines (grey hunters/blood claws in my case), terminators, etc. or "warm bodies" as I´ve seen someone express it. Hmmm, it might be somewhat far-fetched.

Anyway.

I´m toying with the idea of make a Space Wolves Drop Pod army and after reading on the tactics forum I´ve seen people talking about balanced lists between "hitting power" (as in the ability to battle MC, tanks and other tough opponents) and the number of "warm bodies" (or whatever you wanna call it).

So, knowing that there´s not one answer to this question, my question is, about how much infantry would you need in an optimal/balanced 2000p DP army? I just want to "hear" your thoughts on the subject.

You still have to have answers for: Land-Raiders, Monolith / AV14 / Mechanized (which in 5th ED means Meltas). And Hordes (Orks, Nids) Which can be solved with flamers / Dreads.


as an aside; SM don't really qualify as "fresh-meat", that term would be more applicable to a drop-guard army.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/253839/930505.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/253839/930505.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/253839/930519.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/253839/930519.page GMT CSM but maybe scouts would work....Or Inducted DH/WH Stormtroopers?

EDIT: Can Space Wolves do that? Idk.....]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/253839/932615.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/253839/932615.page GMT CSM.
Chaos Space Marin = CSM.
I like that trend.
