army backround:
its kinda weird. how would they survive without warp sheilds.
if they had contact with lesser chaos beings, would they be chaos undivided marines? any contact doesnt make them slightly heratical, it makes them uber heratical in the eyes of the dark angels, even if they dont worship chaos as such. just my 2 cents there.

its a very hard hitting squad that you want pointed at the enemies elite. i would suggest swapping the melta for a plasma gun and dropping the heavy bolter. its not going to help when this squads running at the enemy to get into assault. i would in fact suggest putting them in a rhino for the extra speed (if you drop 1 marine)

Elite
1 Drednaught
- Multi Melta/Missile Launch

instead of the multi-melta go with an assault cannon. you dont have to pay for the upgrade, its still and effective anti-tank weapon, and it has a much longer range so you can keep it out of trouble.

1 Drednaught
- TL Lascannon/Power Fist Storm Bolter
looks good

5 Man Termie Squad
-1 Assualt Cannon
-3 Storm Bolter/Chainfist
-Sergent Power Sword/Chainfist
i would drop the chainfists. you have 15 S8 attacks comin in on a tank from plain terminators, and thats more then enough to deal with any armour.

Troops
3x 10 man tactical Squads w/ plasmas and Missile launchers
1x 10 man tactical Squads w/ plasmas and Missile launchers with Drop Pod

lots of tac squads=good. they SHOULD be the bulk of any marine force. drop pods can go really good or really bad, make good placements


Fast Attack
1 3 LS squadron of Land Speeder Tornados
1 3 man Bike Squadron

tornadoes are good, a squadren is a very effective reserve unit. however, how are you using the bikes? theyre expensive and usually die fast, so i dont take them often. theyre tricky, especially for such a small unit.


Heavy Support
1 Pred Annihilator with TL Lascannon and 2x Heavy Bolters / HS Missile
1 Pred Annihilator with TL Lascannon and 2x Lascannons
i would keep both predetors uniform to the first configuration. makes them more flexible IMO.

1 5 man Dev Squad-3 Missile Launchers/1 Heavy Plasma
- Sergent w/ Term honors and Combi-flamer gun

[i]drop the terminator honours and combi gun on the seargent. it really wont do much with them stuck in the back plugging away. if anything give him a storm bolter.[i]
theres a different section for army lists....
people need to post in that
