Default 300 Space Marines


So what do you all think? Think you can come up with a 300 space marine scenerio? I don't play them so I don't know how tough you can make them, but I guess there's a possiblity.

300 Space Marines... there's a chapter master and two captains at least. Maybe a chaplain. Total points estimate I'd give it about 70,000 because it would be just that much for basic marines, upgrades, terminators, commanders and retinues... plus vehicle support and what not.

Oh, and then pit them against the same value per each of every army out there that's an enemy to the Imperium.

I had that video on my myspace profile for a while.
300 Space Marines vs a butt load of Orks. The Orks would have to kill all the Space Marines to win. Apocalypse!

rules wise, you could alwasy scale it down a bit, say like 30 marines against an enemy using the sustained attack scenario rule so they get to recycle their troops. put the marines in some defendable terrain in the middle of the board and have at it!

not as impressive as a third of a chapter maybe but a lot more do-able

btw, 30 marines is exactly what i'm aiming for. since that quote by rogal dorn makes it litterally correct.

"give me 100 space marines, or failing that give me 1000 other troops."

Well, I actually have 279 marines at my command at this time, but that's including captains, chaplains, a librarian, a techmarine, a few support vehicles and about 20 termies. I love them all and can max out more than 2 FO charts. Total, it runs me about 30,000 points. I love using 'em but got kinda tired of similar units so moved on to a new army. I'll get 'em to 3 full companies and support eventually. Always remember, a company of 100 doesn't count the captain, his retinue, the specialists (apothecary, techmarine, Chaplain, Librarian), or any of the pilots.
