well, you certainly won't make any friends with a list like this... but, you're sure to kill a lot of things.

i prefer my Assault Termies in Land Raiders, so they can assault right out of the gate.

also, when doing a Lysander-blitz, i usually take a Tank Hunting Terminator squad with x2 Cyclone Missle Launchers for some "drop and pop" action.
;-)

Not sure I understand what you mean.

by this i mean that i've noticed that minis players like to play against what they would call "balanced lists" and i'm not sure that the people playing against you would consider this list "balanced".
...not that i think you shouldn't play it (i think that playing "balanced lists" is boring), but people might complain that it's "unfun" or "beardy/cheesey/cheap/ect"

but, you're sure to kill a lot of things.

by this i mean that you are sure to remove a lot of your opponent's models from the table due to unsaved wounds.

i prefer my Assault Termies in Land Raiders, so they can assault right out of the gate.

by this i mean that your huge wall of Assault Terminators will just stand there twiddling their thumbs on the turn they deepstrike into play... but they can assault immediately when they're coming out of a Land Raider.

also, when doing a Lysander-blitz, i usually take a Tank Hunting Terminator squad with x2 Cyclone Missle Launchers for some "drop and pop" action.

by this i mean that i usually take one squad of Terminators with the Tank Hunters skill and two Cyclone Mills Launchers so that i can teleport them near a tank and immediately shoot it.
...that way, you can do something about a really nasty weapon as soon as your guys hit the table.
i know you've got Meta weapons on your Landspeeders, but your opponent can't run away from Deepstrikers.

;-)

by this i mean "i love Imperial Fists! have fun!"

anyway...
i also noticed that you have some pretty large squads... which is nice for the Assault Squads denying your opponent portions of the table... but it does make it harder to Deepstrike them (since they have to be placed in a big circle in base-to-base with each other).

hopefully, your opponent doesn't kill off one of the Scout Squads before you get your reserves...

Nice list, but I dont think you can have a multimelta with assualt cannon, I think if you went Multi-Melta you need to take a heavy flamer. As assualt cannons option need to take heavy bolter.

[zangetsu]

thepuritan: Thanks I just wasn't sure what you meant.


Hope to get a battle in with this list ASAP. (However, that might be as late as Saturday.)

Edit: statment withdrawn, sorry math.

[yoritomo]

You cannot arm your landspeeders like that.

The Space Marine Codex states that if your speeder has a heavy bolter than you may add and assault cannon for X points. If your land speeder is armed with a multi melta you may add heavy flamer for X points.

[thepuritan]

just out of curiosity, are you using the newer large bases for your Terminators or the old-school smaller ones?

[math]

No need to apologise.
A speeder with assualt and MM would be damn fine. A little cheesy but what a mess it would make.

[zangetsu]

thepuritan: I actually don't have any terminators yet. I am proxing them until I can buy them.

[thepuritan]

may God have mercy on your wallet.

[zangetsu]

Heres my redone version of the list.

cant fit 8 termies in a crusader... only 5

[thepuritan]

yeah... bring them down to a 5-man squad in the LR and split the other unit into a 6-man and a 7-man.
...that's my suggestion.
(barring another LRC for the other Term Assault Squad...)

[zangetsu]

You can only fit 5 in a Land Raider but, you can fit 8 in an Land Raider Crusader.
