Blog Entries: 1  | If you're shooting for a 500 point list, take a marine from the squad with the missile launcher and add a marine to the squad with the plasma gun, for scoring purposes.

Blog Entries: 1 | it might be worth tweaking the dread a bit. in a game this size you won't see many vehicles with high av, so a lascannon would be overkill. maybe an asscan?

| Librarian Iron Halo, Psychic Hood, Storm of the Emperor's Wrath, Veil of Time Total: 145 points Elites Dreadnought: Heavy Flamer, Extra Armor Total: 120 Troops Squadron 1: 7x Space Marines: Plasma Gun Total: 115 points Squadron 2: 7x Space Marines: Missle Launcher Total: 115 points Total Points:494 I change the dreadnougt to have a heavy flamer and extra armor. Edit: Crap. Librarian should be 170 points, not 145, because of Iron Halo. Should I just remove the Iron Halo? Last edited by earcar; 01-01-2008 at 01:37 AM. |

Blog Entries: 1 | the heavy flamer is an addon for the ccw arm, you still need a right arm weapon. and yeah, downgrade the libby a touch as he's a bit too loaded for such a small game.

| unless you really want the libby I would seriously suggest switching him out for a chaplain or commander. the cheaper chaplain, with bolt pistol, crozius, rosarius and termie honors is only 101 points! sure you don't get a force weapon or pychic powers, but you get 5 attacks BASE for that model... and a 4+ inv. save. A captain gives all your marines LD9, a master LD10. Those are very nice. Libbys IHMO are a bit over powered. Honestly if you want one I think the best way to run one is just a basic cheapy one w/ a bolt pistol and maybe a familar... otherwise they get very expsenive very fast.

| yea smoke launchers are a must ! especially since dreads are slowwww walker dudes :] i have to agree with masterofweirdness though, i just never really felt a connection with libbies. unless you a. really want to use him, or b. have the model and thus want to use him, haha both of which are viable options, then i would personally change to either the cheaper librarian or just to a different HQ. :] cheers ! -ant

Mindwar is an eldar power however. I'm not saying that libby aren't any good... its just that they are expesnive and not amazing in small point battles.

| Chaplain (cheaper one) - Crozius, Rosarius, Bolt Pistol, Termie Honors - 101 pts Dreadnought - Assault Cannon, Heavy Flamer, Extra Armor, Smoke Launchers - 123pts Tactical squad x 10 - Bolters, Plasma Guns - total of 160pts Tactical squad x 8 - Bolters - 120 pts Hmm... that's what I came up with... you could switch it up a bit, maybe trade some marines for marines... or you could get a squad of scouts... which are cheaper and better for close combat...

| @ Dragoon King: Mindworm is Grandmaster Ezekiel's psychic power. He is the only unit in the game that can use it. I field him in all my my games that are 1500 points or more. It's a great character killer. |

Blog Entries: 1 | The Dread sounds real nasty. Also, you might wanna put a heavy bolter in the tac squad instead of Missile Launcher, but that's just me. I never seem to hit with the darn things.
