You can take an entire drop pod army in reserve. Drop pods are exempt. BUT, Bosco seems like he's putting some units on the table and just deploying their empty drop pods. For instance, TDA...

Most opponents will pop your LR almost immediately (especially if you go second), but a few opponents will have trouble with it. Other than the Hammernators, I don't see a lot of killing power in...

Totally agree with Deadlift. I wouldn't even completely insist on TH/SS Termies, as Tactical Terminators can be very effective if wielded correctly. As long as they aren't going against AP2, they are...

I mean, full Sanguinary Guard is as fluffy as they come. As you said, you're going to struggle badly against MC's (mostly the high T and ability to chew right through your 2+), and Sanguinary Guard...

Make the Company Commander a Librarian and you're good to go. Anything else and you're neutering every squad. To shave off 55 points, you'd need to lose most of your upgrades.

Totally depends. You should be using them to snipe particular high-value targets, and for that they definitely out-class 8 normal marines. Throw them in 4+ cover save ruins, and they instantly get a...

Just take out your second Dreadnought in a Drop Pod. Done. IF you want. But I'm guessing you're using 3 Drop Pods so you can land your two Dreadnoughts on the first turn.

Also, I love how most of...

I honestly thought the Stormraven would get dropped by 20 points when they released an expansion, but Death from the Skies (or whatever the new flyer expansion's called) didn't adjust the cost... so...

Playing in a tournament this weekend. All I have to bring that's painted is my BA jumper army. Probably not my first choice, but I'd like some critiques.

HQ:
Librarian, Jump Pack - 125

Elites:...

Totally forgot the Contemptor had interceptor/skyfire. My bad. You're right.

And yea, all your firepower is medium to close range. Might want to throw in a couple elements (like the ML in the...

I agree with Alshrive. Sniper scouts instead of the small Tactical Squad. And I'd personally go with a normal Dread with 2x TL Autocannons over your Contemptor Dread, but I'm sure you've already got...

Yeah, I'm with Maelstrom. You might be better off using the Dark Angels codex and fielding a mix of Terminators, Scouts, and possibly Dreadnoughts if you want them. But if you're set on using the...

Seems to me like you need another Troops choice. I feel like I harp on it all the time, but it's just important. Right now you only have two scoring units (Assault and Tactical marines). With the 250...

Well, you say you want critiques but then you don't really want critiques lol. The Nephalim is overpriced and I wouldn't use it (and even with the Nephalim, you're not going to be able to deal with...

I read most of that other thread about Deathwing assault, and it sounds like you declare a Deathwing Assault after you declare which units are going to be held in reserve. So therefore, they're...

Easiest way to save points on the battle company would be to drop all the Razorbacks for Drop Pods (35 points a squad), think about a cheaper heavy weapon (Multi-Melta, if you're drop-podding) for...

Weird, I even checked the FAQ before I posted. Welp, that sucks for you I guess haha. Primaris Psykers with Divination definitely sounded too cheap and good to be true.

Yeah more grenade launchers and some autocannons would be nice. Honestly, I can't think of much of a reason not to bring a Primaris Psyker instead of the Commissar. If you take Divination, you up all...

Well, full drop pod armies are legal in 6th edition so I wonder where your local tourney differs from the rules. If you have nothing on the table at the end of turn one, then yeah you lose. But drop...

Under the Reserves section, it says that an Independent Character is counted as a single unit regardless of whether or not they have joined another unit. So under the strictest rules, your list...

Yeah I'd go with the second list and drop the Sanguinary Guard for 7x Scout Snipers with a ML and Camo Cloaks, then get an ADL with Quad-gun. But if you're really don't think you'll face more than...

You don't have nearly enough Troops. 1 Troops choice in a 2k point tourney just isn't enough. Your opponent will just have to kill your Tactical Squad to deny you the ability to score objectives. Or...

My first post wasn't as clear as I'd hoped, but I meant to say that I know the White Templars are a real chapter but they're not actually affiliated with the Black Templars or their "successor...

I've been floating a few mech Space Marine lists around, but none of them have really grabbed me. My first army was Black Templars, so I think I'm going back them. I have the remnants of a few...

What do you do when you run up against flyers? I'm intrigued, since it sounds like you've been playing this list for awhile... or maybe you've just been theorycrafting. You don't have any flyer...
