Hey all. I saw this list on another site, and I thought it looked very good. I was wondering how it would fair against armys, considering there aren't very many models on the field for the amount of points.

TOTAL: 2500 Points.


So what do you all think? I'd Really like to use this list, it sounds like alot of fun. I'm just wondering, for the amount of points, will there be too many anti-tank weaponary for this list to do well? I know at 2500 points, I certainly have alot of anit-tank weaponary. The reason the last assault squad has a drop pod is so that I can drop down 5 pods on the first turn, to suppress the enemy, and the other 3 + assault marines will come in to support.

Please leave some feedback :)

Cheers :victory:

Why the LRR? Deep Striking Land Raiders FTL. Dropping 10 DC in a Pod would be amusing though. Plus you can afford a unit of HG to give your marines FNP.
If the LRR deploys, it's the only thing you start the on the board, it draws fire and goes 'splode. If you reserve it, it won't get anywhere for 2-3 turns. If you DS it, you'll mishap. Podding them is a good way to get the DC involved from the get go.

Plus, you can afford Honor Guard or SP. The FNP bubble is huge for marines without transports.
