I'll be damned if I'm going to let some army stealing sonofa***** get me down. Here's the list I can make with what I've still got - the stuff that was in the bag that didn't get snatched, the stuff I'd left at home, and the stuff in the Dark Vengeance set I'm going to buy this afternoon.
I'm curious to hear your feedback, especially if it involves:
1) Adding a Drop Pod (the only thing I own that's not in this list)
2) What should I buy next?
3) Other ways to rearrange the points I've spent without altering the model list too drastically.
Author's Note: There is no actual Feel No Pain in this list. My poor car clearly failed an armor save, but I'm getting back in the fight, and there's only one USR that lets me do that...
HQ
• Terminator Librarian w/Storm Bolter
Elites
• 10 Tactical Terminators (2 Heavy Flamers, 2 Assault Cannons, 2 Chain Fists)
Troops
• 10 Tactical Marines (Plasma/Plasma), Power Weapon/Meltabombs Sergeant
• 10 Scouts w/Camo Cloaks, 5 Sniper Rifles, Missile Launcher
Fast Attack
• 3 Bikers (2 Meltaguns)
• Stormtalon
Heavy Support
• Land Raider Redeemer
I'm not entirely sure how to play this list, but I don't think it looks half bad. The land raider is a bit of an odd duck in this list, but I haven't got the points for a godhammer. I can put a combat squad of tacs (or even the whole unit) into it and try to use it to assault and claim midfield objectives. Or I can just ram it down my opponent's throat. I've found that land raiders are surprisingly hard to kill, and I can see it surviving, even without rhinos to draw fire.
As far as assembling the bikers, I'm torn about the sergeant. Should I put a power fist on him? I can scare up the points by using the power armor librarian I'll get with Dark Vengeance instead of the terminator librarian I've already got. The biker squad is clearly for vehicle assassination, but everyone tells me to keep bikers out of combat. What do you think?
And, of course, I want your general thoughts on the list.
Thanks in advance.
FWIW, this power fist list would look like this:
HQ
• Librarian
Elites
• 10 Tactical Terminators (2 Heavy Flamers, 2 Assault Cannons, 2 Chain Fists)
Troops
• 10 Tactical Marines (Plasma/Plasma), Power Weapon/Meltabombs Sergeant
• 10 Scouts w/Camo Cloaks, 5 Sniper Rifles, Missile Launcher
Fast Attack
• 3 Bikers (2 Meltaguns), Power Fist Sergeant
• Stormtalon
Heavy Support
• Land Raider Godhammer
