this is a very cool list! just one question, as i am unfamiliar to bike lists; please tell me how a rider can cary a bolt pistol too? furthermore, if the riders with meltaguns fire them, can they fire their tlbolters? thanks.
A standard space marine bike rider, may hold a bolt pistol, OR A CCW, however veteran sgt may select any items they want, so if they select a bolt pistol and powerfist, the +1 attack is added.
The bolt pistol may not fire if you shoot the bike. The bike is a twinlinked bolter, thus its always better, and since the gun is mounted on a bike you may shoot and charge with it, thus making weather you put a pistol or CCw on the bike model completly up to how you like the model on the bike to look.
furthermore, if the riders with meltaguns fire them, can they fire their tlbolters? thanks.
Yes I do have 3 dreadnoughts - i'm sure i'll learn the hard way and buy more terminators in the long run! I'm also planning on doing 2000pts of 3rd Company (in about 2008!). I've heeded the advice and dropped to 1850 pts by removing one LST so now have 9 LS instead of 10 (including MoTRW) :w00t:
Id play 1850 ravenwing, but keep all the speeders.
Landspeeders are by far the best space marine unit for the points.
So use as many as you can.
Bikes are only to fill troop choice.
Think of what you could do with a pure LST list, *drool*
