(though the lack of a 3++ can be potentially devastating) I will consider that if I run them.

I would also consider putting the Chapter Master on a Bike with a Thunder Hammer, the Shield Eternal, and Artificer Armor. Nasty combo. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564145/6269903.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564145/6269903.page GMT 2k tourney "count as" succesors. 1 month away

A Missile Launcher for the third Tactical Squad and a Combi-Weapon for each Tactical Squad is what I would do. I think the list needs more Melta but is otherwise pretty good.

I could do that, but then there is nothing to take wounds for him. :/

Honestly he doesn't need bullet catchers. He is easy enough to hide behind vehicles or terrain and is very tough. Plus there's a 33% chance that he regains a wound every turn!

Mathematically speaking, it takes 22 Lascannons or Plasma shots (at BS4; 30 shots at BS3) to down this guy in a single turn. He can easily be in CC by turn 2. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564145/6270827.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564145/6270827.page GMT 2k tourney "count as" succesors. 1 month away IH list is better than the others? ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564145/6274490.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564145/6274490.page GMT 2k tourney "count as" succesors. 1 month away
The second list would be better as a Blood Angels list. Assault Marines are very lackluster without Furious Charge and Feel No Pain. I also am not sure why you would give Sniper Rifles to Scouts with a Land Speeder Storm.

The Iron Hands list would actually scare me were I assigned to play it in a tournament. Few armies expect a single Land Raider in 6th edition... much less two of them! Players are loading up on Plasmaguns and shunning Meltaguns. 6th edition is the time of the Land Raider, thanks to this and Iron Hands tactics. This list could still use some work but it is easily the best of the three, imo. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564145/6274661.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564145/6274661.page GMT 2k tourney "count as" succesors. 1 month away HoW as RG even if they move 12. making HoW easier to nab. the honor guard with calgar wouldn't be easy to shoot down. as they would be hidden from at least half the army. Only moving up if its a tau gunline or some sort thereof. because when the LSS comes in, I was just going to drop the scouts out of some (leave the bolter ones in one) and let them camp back objectives popping shots at things.

that being said. what would you recommend on the IH list.

5 Devastators 170
-Missile Launchers w/ Flakk Missiles

Fortification
Aegis Defense Line 100

I take the Land Raiders as Heavy Support choices so they can score in Big Guns Never Tire. The only thing that I have found to be a little weak is the Flakk Missiles. More anti-air is never a bad thing, I suppose.

As for that BA list... Why are they in Drop Pods? I would rather see 40 Assault Marines with Jump Packs on the ground. Otherwise that looks to be a pretty solid list. I would trade all the Flamers for Meltas, removing the Combi-Plasmas from the honor Guard to pay for it. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564145/6276605.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564145/6276605.page GMT 2k tourney "count as" succesors. 1 month away

Mephiston

2x Sanguinary Priest
-Jump Packs

5x10 Assault Marines
-Sergeant has Power Axe and Meltabombs, 2 Meltaguns

5 Scouts (they sit behind the ADL)
-Camo Cloaks, Missile Launcher, 4 Sniper Rifles

Storm Raven (for transporting Mephiston)
-TL AC/MM

ADL w/ Quad Gun

This is exactly 2k if I remembered my points correctly.

You have tons of tough bodies, a little anti-air, plenty of Melta, and a list that people won't expect. 2 Priests should be enough if you clump your squads together.

I am going to be honest. mephy really doesn't need the Storm raven transport. he should be in CC T2. not T3. I use power mauls on my Sgts. as the majority of the time they either just die. or fight armor 4+ around here. Also, I have never. NEVER had a power fist on a sang priest not make back its points and MORE. Why, the other day I took out 4 meganobz thanks to one. It is also a reason I try to run ~3 priests. WS5 2 attacks is just so nice :3. (its easy to keep them alive as they are IC and passing wounds off on a 2+) prob drop the scouts and ADL for this. (tbh scouts disappoint me. sides I can usually put my objectives in/near my opponents zone since my army is there anyway.) I would actually use the Storm raven to carry one of my ASM. If at all tbh. ( and no, 50 MEQ + FnP marines is not "TONS" of tough bodies at 2k, its an average number of semi tough bodies.) ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564145/6278491.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564145/6278491.page GMT 2k tourney "count as" succesors. 1 month away IH.. and have you also considered BT?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564145/6279402.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/564145/6279402.page GMT
