I've seen a moderation of this list somewhere. If you take out one of the stern guard and replace it with a techmarine, it allows you to boost your cover save when you arrive from the pod. Tigurius allows you to use prescience on your 'guard... smart move. I'd drop the two heavy flamers and replace them with combi's. Then, replace one of the drop pod tac. squads with a bike squad with 2 grav-guns and a combi-grav.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576889/6490471.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576889/6490471.page GMT 1500 Ultramarines Semi-Competitive http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576889/6491950.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576889/6491950.page GMT 1500 Ultramarines Semi-Competitive tac squads flamers instead of meltas... I think two flamer squads (or even one) can do some damage. Two meltas should be good. Combi's really let the sternguard shoot some templates then shoot really whatever else.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576889/6492130.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576889/6492130.page GMT 1500 Ultramarines Semi-Competitive OP: Cool list! i hope it does well. I am not a believer in heavy flamers on the Sterns. I don't think they will turn the tide in horde control. Not to mention most hordes will have the ability to assault from outside template range. So really all you might want is a combi-flamer for the overwatch auto D3 hits. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576889/6492209.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576889/6492209.page GMT 1500 Ultramarines Semi-Competitive tac sargs. I like to have the combi match the special weapon, doubles the chance of blowing up a tank turn one haha ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576889/6492640.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576889/6492640.page GMT 1500 Ultramarines Semi-Competitive

I agree with this.

I might swap some of the tac squads around. Do you need that much melta? You could gear one squad with plasma/c-plas, another with flamer/c-flamer, etc.

Another option if you are worried about hordes is the 5 man 2xflamer assault squad in a pod. Costs dirt, lands and burns something. Cheep way of boosting your pod count as well.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576889/6492700.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576889/6492700.page GMT 1500 Ultramarines Semi-Competitive

But 2 heavy flamers AND a combi-flamer in overwatch is quite fun (3D3 hits, watch your charging opponents face drop as half his charging unit is taking wounds).
Suicide drop sternguard with 2 HF and special ammo works quite well for me tbh.

In all seriousness, the HF is the one weapon I’d give up the special ammo for. And there are so many things out there that just need to burn to death.

But at this point I’m just quibbling personal preferences, the list is solid.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576889/6495082.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/576889/6495082.page GMT
