Not bad.. Cheap, yet effective. IT's actually my favorite set up, though in your low pts. value, drop the terminator honors. It only grants + attack, and 15 pts. could be used to but more bodies!!!

Command Squad
8
*Sarge Terminator Honors
*Sarge Power Fist
*Melta gun
*Furious Charge
*Bolt Pistol
*Frag Grenades
Subtotal 192
Not bad... I'd drop the fist for a power weapon, and the melta for a flamer, but that's just personal preference as I prefer my command squads to be CC geared, and that is a very effective setup. Though the 'fist could stay..

Rhino 50
*extra armor
*smokes
*Stormbolter
subtotal 68
If by stormbolter you mean the pintle mount, drop it. Too low a pts. game for this to be useful on a rhino.

Master of Sanctity 100
*Bike
*meltabobs
*Terminator honors
*frag grenades
Subtotal 151
I'm not a fan of bikes myself... But the set up is good, except for the terminator honors. See my comments on the Commander/Master to see what I recommend there.

HQ Total 542

Troops
Tactical Squad #1
5
*Plasma
*Plasma
Subtotal 100
Do you mean two plasma guns? Good stuff. I like the set up, though I'd try to add one more body in there for meatshield.

Tactical Squad #2
5
*Heavy Bolter
Subtotal 80
Not bad, but more bodies would help I think.

Tactical Squad #3
5
*Heavy Bolter
Subtotal 80
Same as above..

Tactical Squad #4
5
*Lascannon
Subtotal 90
Not bad...I prefer missile launchers for the versatility. Once a lascannon has killed off enemy armor, it's fairly useless. But a missile launcher can still fire frags for anti-hoard, etc..

Tactical Squad #5
5
*Lascannon
Subtotal 90
Same as above.

Tactical Squad #6
5
*Lascannon
Subtotal 90
Same as above.

Troop Total 535

Elites
Veteran Squad 1
8
*Sarge Terminator Honors
*Sarge Power Fist
*Melta gun
*Furious Charge or Infiltrate
*Frag Grenades
Subtotal 192
These, I like... Give them infilitrate and slam them into the ass end of enemy armor.

Rhino
*extra armor
*smokes
*Stormbolter
subtotal 68
Same as your other rhino..

Elite Total 275


Fast Attack
Bikers
3
*meltabombs
*meltagun
*meltagun
*sarge terminator honors
*sarge power weapon
*sarge bolt pistol
Subtotal 148
I'd loose the meltabombs. Not really worth it.. Give the sarge the power fist, and you'll do even better against armor...

Fast Attack Total 148



Grand Total 1495


Alright my plan here is to load up the Rhinos with the Master and squad and the Vets and charge across the board to chop stuff while my bikers should either turbo boost or charge the first turn, they are there to tank hunt and to deal with infantry. The twin plasma squad is going to try and grab a decent position with cover and kill stuff while the heavy weapons sqauds will sit in back and shoot.

I face mostly marines, one DE, adn one GK guy usually but I want this list to be able to face all comers. I am open to any helpful advice. Thanks
The MAster + Command Squad + Vets = how many bodies? If it's over 10, they won't fit in the rhino.
