Fast Attack
10x Assault Marine Squad Beltharius (1x Plasma Pistol) = 225pts
Now I've had mixed results with Assault Marines, but I suggest you ignore everyone who is saying this squad should be dropped or cut to 6 men (8 at very most if you are gonna start cutting), because not only are they marines with an extra attack (2 ccws) but there speed can also help you to claim objectives late in the game- something thats not going to happen if you've cut them down so far they're a easy victory pt pile for an opponent
Total
1000pts - 40 models

Good point Baron... however, the reason that I would cut them is that so many expesnive models in 1k is not good! And, IMO, these guys, with their speed, and a flamer make great counter assault teams (hide behind a nice big size 3 terrain piece... then BOOM! FLAMERS! assault... 18 hits I4 hits (or 15, but 3 p. fists) and well... bye ).
