In my case, they would most likely be in a bolstered ruin, so they would get a 2+ save without going to ground. The Tacticals would get a 2+ save when going to ground though.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/331424/2185670.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/331424/2185670.page GMT Space Marine objective holder

So still the scouts then...as they can use a 2 up and still fire. And should they find themselves in an unbolstered area for some reason they still get a 2 up go to ground save.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/331424/2185864.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/331424/2185864.page GMT Re:Space Marine objective holder If its in enemy territory or in the middle of the board,tacs.
If you are being sneaky and trying to take a not so well defended objective in enemy territory, then by all means try taking it with scouts. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/331424/2185912.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/331424/2185912.page GMT Re:Space Marine objective holder
In summary, you could be fine with just two troops, if you combat squad. In non-objective missions, you just stick the full tactical squads in rhinos.

Put the two heavy weapon combat squads on the rear objective (hopefully in terrain). Use the tactical squads with special weapons in rhinos to take forward objectives and/or intercept units in route to your two objective combat squads. The key is to have other units that will threaten an enemy's long range supporting fire and/or be a more pressing target than the two tactical squads. Do not be afraid to go to ground with the back two squads.

This is generally how I ran my vanilla marines. Combat squads are very useful for sitting on objectives.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/331424/2210422.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/331424/2210422.page GMT
