the CM cannot have the PF, Shield Eternal AND combi-grav. He's gotta swap one weapon for the Shield.

at the competitive level you're gonna have a hard time dealing with flyer-heavy lists (Cron-Air and such) and I'm afraid a strong assault list might give you a hard time too (Daemons).

It's a solid list overall, I'm just not sure about its merit in a tough competitive environment.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573994/6463468.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573994/6463468.page GMT 1500 Imperial Fists CM and for their weapons I'm guessing combi gravs and apothecary. Other then that looks good, for extra points drop the rhinos because all they do is give first blood, just camp everyone behind the aegis defense line.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573994/6464919.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/573994/6464919.page GMT 1500 Imperial Fists

Except he has no HQ listed that can take a command squad. He'd have to drop the CM to a Captain perhaps, or add another HQ to take a Command Squad.

And not have scoring troops moving to objectives?? The Rhinos *may* give first blood (not always), but they'll get his scoring troops to their objective faster than them walking across the board will.

@grimgunman - As mentioned, the CM can't take both weapons + shield eternal. You're going to have to either make him a close combat monster or a ranged threat. With SE, close combat monster is the typical choice. If you're doing ranged perhaps drop SE and use a StormShield instead, then you can take both a CCW + Ranged weapon.

I like the triple dev squad idea but I'd consider giving one of them Lascannons instead of ML for the really though AV.
