I've been working on a couple of SM lists between 1500 and 2000pts and have read quite a few posts and critiques on other lists criticising the use of a lone LR.
I'm a relatively new player so just bare with me if this seems stupid
but i'm assuming that the main criticism behind fielding a lone LR is that it may as well paint one huge target on it's side and be done with it... assuming that i'm right with that observation, what units are good compliments to that lone LR?
or is the suggestion that you should be fielding a second one?
which seems to me that you'd be putting all of your eggs in 2 large baskets, assuming that both are filled with terminators...
at the moment i'm trying to put together some versatile balanced lists, but don't have many vehicles to use, although i am willing to get them...
so i'm looking at:
hq - vulkan/commander/chapter master
2 x 10 man tac squads with rhinos
1 x 5 man assault squad with chaplain
1 x 5 man term squad TH/SS
1 x 5 man scout
as a core set, then bulking out first with transports all round and then i'm all a bit stuck... which is why it'd be interesting to know what are good ways to support my LR + termies with the remaining points at my disposal.
just to explain, i didn't post this in the lists section because i'm more interested in the discussion of how to support a unit, rather than optimising my points in my list.
hope my rambling makes at least a little sense?
