'Ard Boyz List

I don't know man, on paper the chapter banner isn't that amazing.

Drop a marine, the tornado will pay for itself everything... In either objective grabbing, tank hunting, or threat level to the enemy.

Right, I'll probably drop one marine from a power weapon squad so I have some choice as to where my libbie goes depending on who I am facing.

Sounds like a plan, remember you can always deep strike the speeder if you ever needed to.

I'm excited to see how you do Nathan.

Everyone's a Space Marine player at heart

Could you do a list recap for us?

You could get melta bombs on two of the three power weapon sergeants. Never know they may come in handy.

Then get playtesting!!!

PS: I wrote a 2500 point Nurgle list last night, and it turns out I have enough models for it. So I may be joining in on the fun! I would have to bust major ass though, and prelong the purchasing/building of a new army.

That's great Matt.

Did a test battle for right now. Check the batrep section.

Not sure that I can make it, reason being the new codex will not be out yet... So you have to use the old one and then switch over. Seems like too much hard work, so I will just be working on the Deathwing instead.

Let me know when you are stopping by ACME on the 22nd Matt. I'll time my appearance to catch up with ya (shoot the breeze, mock CJ, DA sprue exchange..)

Whenever is good for you man

Basically the same list as last time, but with less goodies. I know I do not need Wise, Heed the Wisdom of the Ancients or Eye to Eye, but I am too lazy to take them off my list.

I would drop the dread and purchase another landspeeder (running two units of one)

Just run single trait or add the one where you get 2 special weapons.

I'd drop the Dread for 2 more Tornados. run 3 single choices.

yeah, haha duh. Sorry...

Right, might take me a little while to get everything running, but I think I can do it.

Re-calculated. Got 10 pts left. Should I get a combat shield for my Master? Or meltabombs for the Libbie and 5 pts of something else for some other person?

bionics is 5 points

yeah is the tourney 1750 or 2500pts

1750 guys....I listed it in the Arde Boyz updates part Deux

My codex has bionics at 5pts for a sargeant, but 10 for an IC. BT might have different armory prices though. My codices might as well be part of the dead sea scrolls.

Haha, very true. I think the Eot is the 4th oldest now, with SW as 3rd oldest, Orks as 2nd oldest and Dark Eldar as the oldest.
