Yeah, vindicators can take out vehicles but nothing like a lascannon or meltagun. I'm thinking maybe 3 x preds with autocannon and las sponsoons. The Noise Marines can take out infantry with sheer volume of shots so the vindies could be considered redundant.

Also about getting punched out I find Noise Marines to be sneaky, people get so shot up by them its almost like they forget that there CSM with fearless and int 5.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/269979/1189157.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/269979/1189157.page GMT 1850 Emporers Children NM AC model his with PW, Doom Siren, and blastmaster.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/269979/1189165.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/269979/1189165.page GMT 1850 Emporers Children

no blastmaster, sonic blaster but yeah its a ton of stuff on one model. Also keep in mind that sonic blasters work like close combat weapons, bolt pistols and bolters on a chaos space marine model, not all have to be shown.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/269979/1189168.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/269979/1189168.page GMT 1850 Emporers Children PW. But knowing the EC, I suppose it could be anywhere.

Oh and at that cost for Vindis you could go 3x Oblitz and 2x Oblitz. Or, if you really wanted, 3x Oblitz and a AC/LC pred to create more cover with 15 points to stick somewhere else. Maybe a spare havoc launcher?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/269979/1189169.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/269979/1189169.page GMT 1850 Emporers Children

Well either the power weapon or the blaster may get the axe for showing up on the model. The sheathed swords that come with the Khorne Berzerkers are great to put on a model, I've got them on all my bikes.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/269979/1189170.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/269979/1189170.page GMT 1850 Emporers Children PW that comes with the NM AC.

NM: Why 9?
Sonic Marines are ok.

Champion squads are ok.

Vindis are cool.

Problems: lack of meltas (vindis and melta bombs, DP attacks are not something to rely on)
Lots of Anti-infantry, but low anti-tank, but this ties into the lack of meltas, there’s no way for you to take out transports early, in which you’d need to dedicate Vindi’s for that job… which is over kill most of the time…

So… this list does well against non-mech armies…which I find are not really serious lists IMO.
