Killing Marines...with Marines.

3 * Plasma Pistol 2*LC Assault Squads are fearsome at tearing down Marines because of their low Risk factor and multitude of Armour-bypass techniques.

 

Is this a Blood Angel buildout? Codex Marines can't get 3 plasma pistols AND dual claws. Not enough gear to trade in on the sergeant for dual claws and a pistol. Gotta give up the chainsword for one claw, and the bolt pistol for the plasma.

 

I used a dual-flamer assault squad, joined by a jump pack Librarian to great effect against Marines this past weekend. Double flamer templates over 4+ Marines each, plus the Avenger template, plus 8 pistol shots was a whole lot of armor saves to make, and a lot of dead Marines with no saves to Avenger.

Actually, it is legal (but just with the Assault Squad) as the sergeant has an option to trade in one of his two weapons to get dual claws for the same points cost as a Thunder Hammer, and then you trade in his other weapon to get a Plasma Pistol.
