 |  Storm Marines Tournie List - 1500pts This list is for a tournament I'm going to this weekend, so I need to refine it this week. Any suggestions are welcome. Traits :- See But Don't Be Seen Take The Fight To Them Die Standing HQ - 366pts 1st Company Captain Mortifer (Represented as Chapter Master) w/ Terminator Armour; Bolt Pistol; Power Fist. -126 Mortifer's Terminator Command Squad Sergeant Lacertosus w/ Storm Bolter & Power Weapon 2 Terminators w/ Storm Bolter & Power Fist 2 Terminators w/ Assault Cannons -240 ELITES - 0pts TROOPS - 894pts Tactical Squad Imperiosus Sergeant Latronus w/ Terminator Honours; Bolt Pistol; Power Fist Marine w/ Multi-Melta Marine w/ Meltagun 5 Marines w/ Bolters Infiltrate -194 Tactical Squad Dominor Sergeant Militis w/ Terminator Honours; Bolt Pistol; Power Fist Marine w/ Heavy Bolter Marine w/ Flamer 5 Marines w/ Bolt Pistol & CC Weapon Infiltrate Frag Grenades -193 Tactical Squad Casus Sergeant Vehemens w/ Terminator Honours; Bolt Pistol; Power Fist Marine w/ Missile Launcher Marine w/ Plasmagun 5 Marines w/ Bolt Pistol & CC Weapon Infiltrate Frag Grenades -202 Tactical Squad Hydrus Sergeant Gant w/ Terminator Honours; Bolt Pistol; Power Fist Marine w/ Missile Launcher Marine w/ Plasmagun 5 Marines w/ Bolt Pistol & CC Weapon Infiltrate Frag Grenades -202 Scout Squad A Sergeant Silens w/ Terminator Honours; Sniper Rifle; Teleport Homer 3 Scouts w/ Sniper Rifles Scout w/ Bolter Infiltrate Move Through Cover -103 FAST ATTACK - 240 Land Speeder Tornado w/ Assault Cannon & Heavy Bolter -80 Land Speeder Tornado w/ Assault Cannon & Heavy Bolter -80 Land Speeder Tornado w/ Assault Cannon & Heavy Bolter -80 HEAVY SUPPORT - 0pts TOTAL = 1500pts My tactics are to keep Mortifer & his squad in reserve, and deploy the scouts outside of line of sight, but near to, a key squad, then deep strike them using the teleport homer. I'll deploy Imperiosus within line of sight of enemy armour (or a Monstrous Creature), and use the Multi-Melta to it's full effect, while using the Bolters to counter-attack any enemy counter-attacks. Dominor, Casus and Hydrus will be deployed near objectives, or if there aren't any, in positions where they can catch the enemy in a cross fire, then charge. The Land Speeders will be the only unit deployed within my deployment zone. One will take the left flank, one take the right flank, and move to support my forces on those flanks. The last will move in support of Mortifer once his team Deep Strikes.

| what about this? wow 30 figures and 3 vehicles for 1500 pts Your tactics seem sound but whats gonna draw fire and attention from your command squad one they deep strike? You need something threatening. Your squads have to be static to fire for full effect you should remove the heavy weapons from the squads with BP & CCW so they can constantly advance their position and still fire all their weapons and assault if need be Ive never liked land speeders i think bikes are more well suited for the job of flanker and its harder for a bolter to kill a bike than it is a landspeeder "think of it this way you can glance a landspeeder on its front armor with a lasgun and tankhunter skill" what about armor? or a dread you need something that is gonna get shot at and live just my two pennies |

 | landspeeders, if used right, can be very effective. mine always get shot down quickly, so IMHO i would drop two and use those points for a standard dread, a ML in the scout squad, and for more marines in the other squads.

not a bad list though. it seems like you tried to balance anti infantry with anti tank in every squad, which is nice, but i think it might be more efficient to specialize each squad towards bolters+antitank guns or bolters+anti infantry guns just a few thoughts! :] happy gaming ! -ant

| I'm kinda suprised that no one has pointed this out, but you took two traits, meaning you need a major disadvantage, not a minor one. So just take the one that limits your use of vehicles (flesh over steel) and you should be fine. I would also suggest you take the trait that allows two assault weapons, since you are right there, so melta-guns and rapid firing death from plasma guns might be more helpful if you are up close and personal. Hope this helps

| Oops, cheers. Well, I put in powerfists simply because those squad are designed to hold objectives aswell as being shooty hit-and-run squads. Generally powerfists are there for CC while holding objectives. An updated list, based on the trait changes. Traits :- See, But Don't Be Seen Take The Fight To Them Flesh Over Steel (Not very fluffy, since my chapter is based on a history, but still, I have to) Die Standing HQ - 369pts 1st Company Captain Mortifer (Represented as Chapter Master) w/ Terminator Armour; Storm Bolter; Power Fist. -130 Mortifer's Terminator Command Squad Sergeant Lacertosus w/ Storm Bolter & Power Weapon 2 Terminators w/ Storm Bolter & Power Fist 2 Terminators w/ Assault Cannons -240 ELITES - 0pts TROOPS - 719pts Tactical Squad Imperiosus Sergeant Latronus w/ Terminator Honours; Bolt Pistol; Power Fist Marine w/ Heavy Bolter Marine w/ Plasmagun 5 Marines w/ Bolt Pistol & CC Weapon Infiltrate -189 Tactical Squad Casus Sergeant Vehemens w/ Terminator Honours; Bolt Pistol; Power Fist Marine w/ Missile Launcher Marine w/ Plasmagun 5 Marines w/ Bolt Pistol & CC Weapon Infiltrate Frag Grenades -202 Tactical Squad Hydrus Sergeant Gant w/ Terminator Honours; Bolt Pistol; Power Fist Marine w/ Missile Launcher Marine w/ Plasmagun 5 Marines w/ Bolt Pistol & CC Weapon Infiltrate Frag Grenades -202 Scout Squad A Sergeant Silens w/ Terminator Honours; Bolt Pistol; CC Weapon; Teleport Homer 3 Scouts w/ Sniper Rifles Scout w/ Missile Launcher Scout w/ Bolter Infiltrate Move Through Cover -126 FAST ATTACK - 240 Land Speeder Tornado w/ Assault Cannon & Heavy Bolter -80 Land Speeder Tornado w/ Assault Cannon & Heavy Bolter -80 Land Speeder Tornado w/ Assault Cannon & Heavy Bolter -80 HEAVY SUPPORT - 171pts Devastator Squad Dominor Sergeant Victorinus w/ Bolter. 3 Marines w/ Multi-Meltas 1 Marines w/ Bolters Infiltrate -171 TOTAL = 1500pts I'm keeping the multi-meltas because the Devs are specialist tank killers, and that tasty 2D6 for armour pen is too much to resist. I played a rather successful test game last night, beating Mech Tau by 1000 VP's. It took only 2 turns to destroy all of his armour amongst the m.l's and multi's.

the main thing i see is that other assault-based armies will love you because they're generally better than you at what they do; - orks get choppas & numbers - 'nids get speed & numbers - chaos get loads of crap like chainaxes - eldar are just plain rude thanks to those clowns that's why i suggest 1 bolter squad for forward support - they can even up the numbers so you can handle the charge... anyways, hope this helps and good luck! cheers!
