http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/14.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net SM table top ready. Currently playing around with the idea of a drop pod list that takes the center of the table and holds tough. Here's the list in it's current version:

HQ: Librarian

Troops:
10 tactical marines, plasma gun, multi melta
Drop pod

10 tactical marines, plasma gun, multi melta
Drop Pod

10 tactical marines, plasma gun, plasma cannon, combi plasma on Sergeant
Drop Pod

10 tactical marines, flamer, heavy bolter, combi flamer on Sergeant
Drop Pod

Elites:

Ironclad Dreadnought w/ Heavy flamer
Drop Pod with teleport beacon

Fast Attack:

Land Speeder w/ multi melta

Land Speeder w/ multi melta

Land Speeder w/ flamer heavy flamer

Fortification:
Aegis w/ coms relay

I left points out due to uncertainty, it should be a 1500-1750 point list, adding in more Tactical Squads or maybe even a Devastator squad to bump it up. I'd like to add in some Vanguard if points in the new codex really allows it. Game plan is to drop the first 3 pods more or less midefield, and head towards Aegis deployed on my table half to set up cover. Ironclad will drop near something to blow up, or in mid field as well to use the locator beacon. What's everyone think?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/548936/5995203.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/548936/5995203.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/548936/5995222.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/548936/5995222.page GMT
At current points values, but factoring in only 90 points for the new cost librarian, I make this list about 1400 pts, but I could be off. In the new dex, maybe running 4 tacticals at 2000 points would be alright if you use UM chapter tactics, for the tactical doctrine when you pod in, and then, if you also got that dev squad you wanted, get a bit of relentless time on the go... hmmm, promote synergy!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/548936/5995275.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/548936/5995275.page GMT SM, and IG. I'm a little concerned about assault heavy armies, but I don't see that as a huge problem with 8 squads of marines spread out well.

I was concerned with the heavy weapon choices in each squad. I don't want 1 pod to be all plasma and another all flamers so I mixed it up some to be able to spread pressure evenly. And the Land Speeders allowed me some wiggle room with their load out.

I like the combi grav idea. Will be useful for Riptides.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/548936/5998330.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/548936/5998330.page GMT
