HQ
1 Command Squad
-Chapter Master
-Chapter Chaplain
-Chapter Champion
-Librarian Epolstiary
-Sergent w/ Termie Honors (Combi-Plasma Gun)Loose the combi-plas, give him a b.p. and power weapon.
-Melta Marine
-Heavy Bolter MarineLoose this, go for something else or stock and standard. Mixing special and heavy weapons is a bad idea.
-ApothecaryI love apothercaries, So I can't say anything!
-Standard Bearer Maybe loose him? I've not seen much use in Standard Bearers for Standard SM
-Marine
IMHO, loose one of the two HQ's, i'd suggest the librarian. Too many pts. in this, if this unit it hit hard enough, you'll get raped in VP.

Elite
1 Drednaught
- Multi Melta/Missile Launch
Loose multi melta. Go with ass-can and missile launcher. Much cheaper, just as statistically effective, but has the added option of being anti-tank or troop on BOTH weapons. Also, plop on smoke launchers, and extra armor.
1 Drednaught
- TL Lascannon/Power Fist Storm Bolter
total waste. I'd rig him up with missile launcher, venerable, and tank hunters in addition, to make him a tank killer. Otherwise, this set up is just a little underwhelming and likely won't do much. Unless the dreads are firemagnets.
5 Man Termie Squad
-1 Assualt Cannon
-3 Storm Bolter/Chainfist
-Sergent Power Sword/Chainfist
3 chainfists? I love them too, but i'd take it down to 2 in the unit, DEFINITELY remove the sagreants for a storm bolters, and maybe give a cyclone m.l. That squad will then be effective in CC and shooty against tanks and infantry! A veritable force of doom for much cheaper than the current one!

Troops
3x 10 man tactical Squads w/ plasmas and Missile launchers
1x 10 man tactical Squads w/ plasmas and Missile launchers with Drop Pod
Not bad strategies here. Plasma+ m.l. is not a bad set up. Horde/high toughness & save killers, and anti-armor. I like the versatility, although I am not sure why the pod on one squad though.


Fast Attack
1 3 LS squadron of Land Speeder Tornados
1 3 man Bike Squadron
Forgive the ignorance, but what variant is the tornado? Also, a 3 man bike squad will do VERY, VERY little. You'd do better to drop them, split the landspeeder up into three separate squads of one, and use them to harass, harry, and cause mass mayhem! Plus you then have a lot more pts. to work with!

Heavy Support
1 Pred Annihilator with TL Lascannon and 2x Heavy Bolters / HS Missile
1 Pred Annihilator with TL Lascannon and 2x Lascannons
Drop the HS missile. Go full las or full hb. In the case of tanks, versatility is not the option you want, you want speciolization. In this case, I'd take on full HB pred, and one full las pred. Same effectiveness, only your power is focused and honed.
1 5 man Dev Squad-3 Missile Launchers/1 Heavy Plasma
I would go with 4 ML, but that is just me. Nicely done though!
- Sergent w/ Term honors and Combi-flamer gun
Loose the combi flamer. Storm bolter works best if you give him anything beyond b.p. and p. weapon.

So far i have no idea what to equip who with what though beyond this...
Help would be appreciated.[/quote]
