The Devil Dogs deviate from the codes astrates slightly. They use the "Cleanse and Purify" trait and have the minor disadvantage of "Die Standing"
The Devil Dogs prefer fast lightning strikes, and blitzkrieg assaults.
Devil Dogs-1000 point army
127-Chapliam Salirus
Jump Pack, terminator honours, bionics, frag grenades, meltabombs
yea, i definitely agree with erus. bionics are cool, but they are too expensive. i think you could drop bionics and save the points for something else ? :] let's see..
157-Squad Caleb-Assault Marines (5)
Jump packs, 2 flamers, Veteran Seargent w/powerfist, combat shield
nice. i think the combat shield might be unnecessary as well, it's really just extra points to have to spend. i recommend, say, dropping the combat shield and giving the sergeant a bolt pistol to go with the powerfist: it's a great CC combo :]
122-Squad Damas-Scouts (8)
Boltguns, heavy bolter, 1 sniper rifle
scouts are fun! if you want, you could maybe switch out some points to make the HB into a missile launcher ? it's annoying i know, but then the ranges on the heavy weapons are the same, and then you have decent mid-range support in the bolters as well.
122-Squad Belial-Scouts (8)
Boltguns, heavy bolter, 1 sniper rifle
same as above. alternatively, you could drop some stuff to make one or more of these squads completely sniper rifle outfitted, and then add a missile launcher ? it would serve as a great long range fire team then, as opposed to a slightly less specialized squad.
165-Squad Arcanus-Devastators (6)
Boltguns, 1 lascannon, 2 missile launchers
fair enough. the lascannons will help with the heavy tanks
165-Squad Mellius-Devastators (6)
Boltguns, 1 lascannon, 2 missile launchers
same as above :]
70-Land Speeder Typhoon
not bad. i prefer tornados myself, but they are slightly more expensive. the missiles will be a good addition against heavy infantry or light tanks as well.
70-Land Speeder Typhoon
Devil Dogs-1750 point army
127-Chapliam Salirus
Jump Pack, terminator honours, bionics, frag grenades, meltabombs
again, probably drop the bionics. and if you ever find that you need points, you could also drop the termie honors. he's a CC powerhouse as it is, adding termie honors just makes him into a CC monster, so termie honors is kind of optional. your call though, of course ! :]
179-Squad Caleb-Assault Marines (6)
jump packs, 2 flamers, Veteran Seargent w/powerfist, combat shield
nice. note above on the combat shield: i just don't think it's worth it. the powerfist shouldn't be picked out too easily by shooting, and the sergeant should perform pretty well in CC as it is.
105-Techmarine Phaeton
Space marine bike, frag grenades, bionics
nice ! again, no bionics. he already has a 3+ save, and he's got the cool bike rules, so you can drop bionics for more points to spend :]
89-Squad Damas-Scouts (6)
Boltguns, heavy bolter,
good, inexpensive anti-infantry.
89-Squad Belial-Scouts (6)
Boltguns, heavy bolter,
repetition is good :] at least, i say so.
175-Squad Validus-Tactical Marines (8)
Boltguns, 2 plasmaguns, Veteran Sergeant w/ storm bolter, power weapon
fair enough. i think you could drop the power weapons from these guys though. the twin plasmaguns will be maximized at range, and so to get your points' worth from the sword you would have to cut down the efficiency of the plasmaguns. again, your call though :]
175-Squad Janus-Tactical Marines (8)
Boltguns, 2 plasmaguns, Veteran Sergeant w/ storm bolter, power weapon
see above :]
200-Squad Arcanus-Devastators (6)
Boltguns, 2 lascannon, 2 missile launchers
100-Razorback w/twin lascannons, extra armor, dozerblade
nice. i like this. unless you consistently play on maps with tons of difficult terrain though, the dozerblade could be removed. it looks cool though, i can't argue with that ! haha
200-Squad Mellius-Devastators (6)
Boltguns, 2 lascannon, 2 missile launchers
100-Razorback w/twin lascannons, extra armor, dozerblade
210-Land Speeder Typhoon (3) |
