<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "750 Ultramarines for local tourney, Help!"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/14.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net 750 Ultramarines for local tourney, Help! 40k tourney in april. I play marines and would like to bring a solid list. Our tourney has a couple special rules i will address now, no fliers and no 2+ saves. I know i will be fighting marine bikes,and Orks. For my list i was thinking of a couple units to bring such as Tigurius and stern guard. Also, special game types we are not informed of until later when the tourney comes up, last year some i can remember were zombie apocalypse, where half of your infantry became plaguezombies, and straight up kill points. If you have any ideas for lists or strong units please leave them below. Thank you.

I would try to take as many Marines in Rhinos as you can. Predator Destructors and Whirlwinds are also very good in low-point games.

I don't have my codex with me (points are from memory; I believe them to be correct), but something like this should work very well:

HQ
Librarian 65
-Telepathy or Telekenisis (whichever one has Psychic Shriek as the Primaris power... I forget)

Elites
5 Sternguard Veterans 175
-5 Combi-Meltas, Rhino

Troops
10 Tactical Marines 210
-Plasmagun, Combi-Plasma, Multi-Melta, Rhino

10 Tactical Marines 215
-Plasmagun, Combi-Plasma, Missile Launcher, Rhino

Heavy Support
Predator 85
-Autocannon, Heavy Bolter Sponsons

The general strategy is fairly simple. The Librarian rides with the Sternguard Veterans in their Rhino. I would consider giving the Sternguard 3 Combi-Plasmas and 2 Combi-Meltas instead of 5 Combi-Meltas. This is your main offensive squad and it can take down a wide variety of targets. Dont forget about their special ammunition!

The two Tactical Squads should advance alongside the Sternguard in their Rhinos. Ideally you would have 2-3 of your squads pop out in the same turn to avoid presenting infantry targets to your opponent early on. The Multi-Melta won't be fired too often, but you may encounter a Battle Wagon or a Land Raider - It is best to be prepared.

Psychic Shriek is really good against units with Ld7 or 8. It will greatly improve the damage output of the Sternguard. I would give the Librarian a Force Sword over a Force Axe, as you will not be encountering 2+ saves. A Force Mace would be a good choice against Orks.

The Predator acts as a "clean-up" unit and should probably be fired last. It can inflict a surprising amount of wounds in a single shooting phase and should be used to finish off units weakened by your Marines.

Hope that helps!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/584610/6629810.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/584610/6629810.page GMT 750 Ultramarines for local tourney, Help! http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/584610/6629827.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/584610/6629827.page GMT 750 Ultramarines for local tourney, Help!
I saw you needed help with marine lists. We'll here I am.
If you have a list of your models for me, I can make you several lists with different chapter tactics.
I saw you were in need of 750.

I was thinking pure Shooty, cuz that's fun at 750
Take red Scorpion chapter tactics, your tacos can take nartheciums for free so they have a 3+ armours save! and a 5 plus fnp

At 750, I don't think you wanna spend more then one fifty on your hq, so let's say

HQ: Chapter Master 150
Auspex
Combi-Plasma
Melta Bombs

Troops: Tactical Squad 175
5 Additional Marines
Plasma Gun
Combi-Flamer
Narthecium

Troops: Tactical Squad 175
5 Additional Marines
Plasma Gun
Combi-Flamer
Narthecium

Heavy Support: Devastator Squad 150
4x Lascannon

Heavy Support: Thunderfire Cannon 100

Chap mas: why? Orbital bombardment (so don't have him move, just line him up in the middle of your squad and have the rest walk past him during movement phase ) auspex gives a -1 cover to enemies within 12 inches which could be useful against those pesky orks who will be hiding.

20 tacs is just awesome to field on a 5+fnp, cuz you prob won't play that big a field.plasmas and Combi flamers just for anti infantry

Devastator squad and 4x s9 ap2 one of which is bs5(as long as Serg is alive and not shooting (still make him die first)) it will kill a land raider or monolith no problem, also any hq will be dead.

The Thunderfire Cannon is literally hell in a shell. Just any infantry, those bikes? Wound em on 3+ with the s6 round, gaunts s4 ap5 ignore cover, you're killing them like no ones business

Enjoy

Lack of 2+ Armor means that Sternguard will kick unholy ass. Their weapons will pen everything on the board.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/584610/6630866.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/584610/6630866.page GMT
