Tactical Squad- MG, MM, Combi-Melta Drop pod -220pts
Tactical Squad- MG, MM, Combi-Melta Drop pod - 220pts
5 Scouts, snipers, ML, telion- 135pts

This second list was suggested on yesthetruthhurts.com and is a little more varied. Snipers and MOTF sit in bolstered ruin to provide a firebase. Rifle dreads also sit with snipers and provide long range fire support. Empty rifle drop pods use locater beacons for the rest of the army to come in accuratly. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337377/2289006.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337377/2289006.page GMT Salamanders drop pod 1850 tourny
I have to admit though; I like List B a lot too. List be could be terribly effective especially if the Rifleman dreads can get a 50% obscurement from the bolstered terrain, then they also get a 3+ cover save. Only thing I am curious about though, would Telion confer Stealth on the MotF too?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337377/2289237.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337377/2289237.page GMT Salamanders drop pod 1850 tourny

Yes it would give stealth to the MOTF]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337377/2289270.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337377/2289270.page GMT Salamanders drop pod 1850 tourny MotF, beyond enabling 6 Dreads, is just sort of there. He can beef up whatever squad he's with, sure. At the very least though, Bolster Defenses would go to waste, probably. In list B, he's going to do something. A ML+Conversion Beamer is probably going to hurt.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337377/2289320.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337377/2289320.page GMT Re:Salamanders drop pod 1850 tourny MOTF did a lot suprisingly. 10 Marines held a bolstered ruin with an objective, and their 2+ g2g saves kept them alive. I also keep him side-by-side with vulkan at all times, to drop a double flamer bomb and follow up assault (killed a bunch of helions with it).

Next game I will try list B, but I must say list A did very well.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337377/2289391.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/337377/2289391.page GMT Re:Salamanders drop pod 1850 tourny MotF is better shooting with a conversion beamer.
