If you're going for diversity, then some Techmarines, Bikes, Dreadnoughts, Land Speeders, Whirlwinds, Vindicators, Phobos Land Raiders, and extra Rhinos/Razorbacks seem to be on your list. And maybe some extra Assault Marines. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/988160.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/988160.page GMT Re:Space Marine Salamanders: What to buy next? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/988828.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/988828.page GMT Space Marine Salamanders: What to buy next?

yeah I thought about that... but a 5man is already good and I already got 1 landraider.... usually 1 is fine if around 1500.

So far though everyone has agreed on landspeeders with heavy flamers and MM..... so that it is! but a nice list of what to buy would be nice...

so far its this...

1. Land Speeders
2. maybe another predator tank
3. whirlwind
4. rhinos]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/989283.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/989283.page GMT Re:Space Marine Salamanders: What to buy next? tac marines)
2. Landspeeders
3. Dreadnoughts
3. Predators (AC/HB but them being interchangable is probably the best)
4. More Assault Terminators

The reason that there is 2 3's is because it's a play-style preference which to buy. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/989288.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/989288.page GMT Re:Space Marine Salamanders: What to buy next?

in every game I have ever played or seen.... rhinos have sucked!

their are ethier...

A. Shot to pieces on the first turn
B. Move once then shot to pieces
C. Raped by CC or MM
D. Monstrous Creature to the face then raped
E. Or shot then a hinderance the rest of the game

I dont like rape... it seems to me drop pods are better and cheaper]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/989707.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/989707.page GMT Re:Space Marine Salamanders: What to buy next?

You can't be serious. Drop pods are the essence of "bite you in the ass".

Yeah guess what, you took 5 drop pods? If I blow them all up, thats 5 KPs My deathwing army has about 7 kill points. Maybe 10 at 2k. That is a literal auto-loss for you unless you MASACCRE me. And because you took DP's good luck getting to those objectives 30 inches away without dying.

DP don't move so I could go up and stick a MB on it and it's gone, and they can't move to contest objectives, tank shock, HIDE to prevent KP's and pop smoke, nor can they reposition units after they have been used.

Using an army with DPA is not bad, but for vulcan ew IMO. But really, if you don't know how to use rhinos correctly....]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/989713.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/989713.page GMT Re:Space Marine Salamanders: What to buy next?

If the game is killpoint based then yes Drop Pods are not very useful, but like this thread is about, im getting suggestions on what to buy and or use in my next battle.

So you suggest Rhinos? And if so any Rhino advice?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/989753.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/989753.page GMT Re:Space Marine Salamanders: What to buy next?
If you are DP list then don't get rhinos. Delete them from the list. It also helps to know what army you are playing, so if you are playing DP sallies....

1. More TH/SS Terminators.
2. Dreadnoughts
3. MM/HF Speeders ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/989758.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/989758.page GMT Space Marine Salamanders: What to buy next? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/989763.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/257453/989763.page GMT Re:Space Marine Salamanders: What to buy next?
1. Some Landspeeders (Not sure how many)
2. Another Dreadnought (Not sure what kind)
3. MAYBE 2 more rhinos

The reason im againest more termies is that the games I always play are friendly... so I use the other 5 shooty marines as another 5 TH/SS Terminators
