http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/14.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net So i have decided that im sick of the Blood Angels taking the hit so ill go with my 'Fluffiest' Vanilla marine list which you can't argue is not fluffy as it is an entire company of marines as they show.
Anyway so here is the actual list:

1x Captain (Bolt pistol, boltgun)

1x Command squad + Standard banner + Apothecary

2x 10 man tactical squads + ML, bolt pistol chain sword sgts
4x 10 man tactical squads + H-Bolter, bolt pistol chain sword sgts

2x 10 man assault marine squads

1x 10 man Dev squads 4 Missile Launchers
1x 10 man Dev squads 4 H-Bolters

Comes to 1850 perfectly originally i was trying to decide between Iron hands and Imperial fists but i decided constant having potentially over 100 bolter shots re rolling 1's would be far better then 6+ Fnp.
So out of a 8 or 10 what comp score would you give for this list?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554874/6095527.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554874/6095527.page GMT tac squad and give the others some special weapons. Do you have any drop pods or rhinos?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554874/6095534.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554874/6095534.page GMT

Alright so what about this then as an updated one which isn't the full company but has transports.

Captain (basic)
Command squads + Apoth & banner + Drop pod

2x 10x Tactical squads + Melta-gun + Drop pod
2x 10x Tactical Marines + H-Bolter + Drop pod
1x 10x Tactical Marines + H-Bolter
1x 10x Tactical Marines + Missile Launcher

1x 10x Assault Squad

1x 10x Dev marines + 4x H-bolter
1x 10x Dev marines + 4x Missile Launcher]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554874/6095539.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554874/6095539.page GMT dev and tac. I think the tac squads with mostly bolters is fine, especially if your playing them as Imperial Fists. I would say though that your assault squads probably need a boost, maybe a sarge with PF/PW or some special weapons thrown in. If assault marines have no special equipment then they only are useful against other basic infantry, which the tactical squads cover already (and quite well with their "bolter drill" rule).

To get the points for some equipment I would just drop a few guys from the devastator squads. Its good to have maybe 7-8 guys in a squad for the sake of absorbing woulds, but 10 is a bit much. Otherwise it seems like a strong list, the only major threat would be battle cannons (anything S8 or AP3) so be careful around Leman Russes and Defiliers. Because vehicles usually carry such strong weaponry, maybe you should try one assault squad with meltas to take care of any threats early in the game.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554874/6095589.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554874/6095589.page GMT I had considered taking some dev dudes out but i didn't want to mess to much with my 'fluff' army]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554874/6095614.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554874/6095614.page GMT IMHO.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554874/6095620.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/554874/6095620.page GMT
