Nerkellis Shar Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Hello all, As I posted already in the "show me your colors" section, I figured I'd at least attempt some kind of introduction. I'm a new 40k player, coaxed into the game by my younger siblings. They play Tyranids and Dark Eldar. And to be honest, I hated the look of the xenos armies. I tinkered with the idea of Imperial Guard (being a National Guard Soldier, they hold a special place in my heart) but the look and sheer power of the Space Marines eventually won out. I've been trolling various forums/tactica articles/etc and decided to make my own Space Marine chapter. After a bit of tinkering with the "theme" (I prefer a kind of armored column approach instead of the deep strike/drop pods) I came up with the following "list". 1750 Space Marines (Aegis Astartes) -HQ: Captain in Power Armor: 150 Relic Blade, Auxiliary Grenade Launcher, and MeltaBombs Command Squad: Apothecary, Company Champion, and 3 Veterans. 255 Champion has Meltabombs Razorback Dedicated Tranport: TL Assault Cannon, Extra Armor, Pintle-Mount StormBolter, Dozer Blade. -Troops: Tactical Squad: 255 Sergeant with MeltaBombs, Chainsword, and Combi-Meltagun 9 Marines, 1 with Meltagun, 1 with Missle Launcher Rhino Dedicated Transport: Extra Armor, Dozer Blade, Pintle-Mount Storm Bolter Tactical Squad: 255 Sergeant with MeltaBombs, Chainsword, and Combi-Meltagun 9 Marines, 1 with Meltagun, 1 with Missle Launcher Rhino Dedicated Transport: Extra Armor, Dozer Blade, Pintle-Mount Storm Bolter Sniper Scout Squad: 95 Sergeant: Bolt Pistol, Sniper Rifle, Camo Cloaks, Meltabombs 4 Scouts: Sniper Rifles, Camo Cloaks, -Heavy Support: Whirlwind Battle Tank: Dozer Blade, Extra Armor, Pintle-Mount Storm Bolter 115 Predator Battle Tank: Dozer Blade, Extra Armor, Pintle-Mount Storm Bolter 160 TL Lascannons, Heavy Bolter Sponsons, Searchlight, Smoke Launcher. Predator Battle Tank: Dozer Blade, Extra Armor, Pintle-Mount Storm Bolter 160 TL Lascannons, Heavy Bolter Sponsons, Searchlight, Smoke Launcher. -Fast Attack: Land Speeder Squadron: 3 Land Speeders with Multi-Meltas and Assault Cannons 300 Total Points: 1745 Any and all advice/comments are welcome.

Olis Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 Hail and welcome, brother! If you'd like C&C of your army list I suggest visiting this subforum. You'll have a bigger chance of someone who knows their stuff seeing it, there. :) I've been trolling various forums/tactica articles/etc and decided to make my own Space Marine chapter. I think you mean trawling, brother. Trolling is something entirely different. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerkellis Shar Posted June 5, 2012 Author Share Posted June 5, 2012 Sorry brother, you're right "trawling" not "trolling". One of the nice things about working the overnight shift at a hospital is you're able to spend copious amounts of time wandering various forums/blogs via celphone web browser. I'll go ahead and post the list to the aforementioned subforum. And thanks for the warm welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Llagos_Tyrant Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 That is a fair bit of armour :) Welcome to the B&C! Be sure to post an article about your Aegis Astartes in the Liber Astartes sub-forum! As well, painting and modelling works are always appreciated in the WIP and Hall of Honour sub-forums! Have a good one mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
