HQ:
Shrike: 185pts
Chaplain, Jump Pack: 105pts

Troops:
3x Scout Squads ( 4 sniper, 1 ML): 3x 75pts (225)

Elites:
10x Vanguard Vets, jump packs, lightning claw pairs: 520pts
10x Vanguard Vets, jump packs, storm shields, powerfists: 570pts
10x Vanguard Vets, jump packs, 5 meltabombs: 245 pts



The plan would be to put shrike with the lightning claw vest and infiltrate them as close as possible to the enemy that I want dead (they would get around 40 attacks that re-roll to wound on the charge not including shrike). I would pair the jump chaplain with the strom-shield powerfist vets so they would get 40 Str 8 ap2 hits on the charge (not including the chaplain. The other vets would assist where necessary as well with the scouts.

What do you guys think? A hilarious list? Is it viable at all?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560060/6191140.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560060/6191140.page GMT 1850 jump pack shenangans VVs down w/ AP2. and number of wounds. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560060/6191174.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560060/6191174.page GMT 1850 jump pack shenangans
Take advantage of DoA rule, and you might have a chance. Otherwise your charging with 30 over priced JP marines with no added survivability. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560060/6191208.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560060/6191208.page GMT Re:1850 jump pack shenangans http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560060/6191247.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560060/6191247.page GMT 1850 jump pack shenangans VV's are not more surviveable than tactical marines and will be eaten to pieces by; Deldar/eldar bulletspam, Hellturkey, tau in general (damn tau) and noise marines (of all the damn things!). This can work with maybe one of the new chapter tactics of the FW website though. Hate to dampen your happy meal, but that's all it is. A happy meal. For things that eat 3+ saves. But I doubt you can be tarpitted.

EDIT: it is spelled shenanigans, not shenangans]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560060/6191268.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560060/6191268.page GMT 1850 jump pack shenangans BA and make the VVs regular assault marines, ditch the scouts and then spend the points you save on something useful

Ba's points costs are way more expensive tho. WAY more.


But no where near as bad as vanguards. And VVs still die like normal marines...

Also, if you play BA you can take sang priests w JPs - fnp on assault marine scoring units is about as good as it come for troops choices.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560060/6191404.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/560060/6191404.page GMT 1850 jump pack shenangans BA points are not THAT much overcosted. a base bare bones 5 man ASM in BA is 100.
