Branching into a new army (List included)

[kenji10000]

Hello all,

I have been playing tyranids for quite awhile now and I am looking to branch into a new army. SM bike armies have always interested me and now I'm working on converting an army up. But before I commit too heavily I was looking for some pointers on purchases. This is the list I came up with thus far, its all through theory hammer so all C&C in appreciated, thanks for reading!

::HQ::

-Captain
---Bike
---Power Fist
---Artificer Armor

TROOPS

-SM bike squad- 4 SM bikes and an Attack bike
-2 Plasma guns

-SM bike squad- 4 SM bikes and an Attack bike
---2 Melta guns
---Multi Melta for the Attack bike

-SM bike squad- 4 SM bikes and an Attack bike
---2 Melta guns
---Multi Melta for the Attack bike

-SM bike squad- 4 SM bikes and an Attack bike
---2 Flamers

ALLIED DETACHMENT

::HQ::

-Rune Priest
---Chooser of the slain
---Bike
---Wolf tail Talisman
---Living Lightning
---Jaws

-Rune Priest
---Chooser of the slain
---Bike
---Living Lightning
---Murderous Hurricane

::TROOPS::

-10 Grey Hunters
---2 Meltaguns
---Rhino

::HEAVY::

5 Long Fangs
---4 Missles (Last guy is the leader)

1500 pts 15 Infantry, 1 vehicle, 23 bikes

So I basically wanted to go for a fast list, one of the rune priests may swap his powers for divination depending on the match up. I was thinking of running them in the non-melta bike squads. As I said above C&C is appreciated. Thank you! ^_^

I'd really suggest adding apothecaries to FnP, if that's in the SM codex. I've played against it before and it really helps make them much more durable with their T5.

It would have to be in a command squad, I could cut something and make a mini deathstar unit
