1500 pts Storm Hunter Bike List

[Tacitus Aemilius]

Hey everyone,

I have played around with Space Marines for a while and have come to settle upon a fast moving bike mounted army list. Please have a look and comment. Thanks

HQ

Captain of the 8th (Captain) 185
relic blade
space marine bike
digital weapons
hellfire rounds

Command Squad 250
3 flamers
company standard
company champion
bikes

Troops
Tactical Squad (10 man squad) 240
meltagun
plasma gun
sgt w/ power fist
rhino transport

Bike Squad (5 Bikes, 1 Atack Bike) 235
2 meltaguns
sgt w/ power fist
attack bike w/ multi melta

Bike Squad (5 Bikes, 1 Attack Bike) 245
2 plasma guns
sgt w/ powerfist
attack bike w/ multi melta

Fast Attack
Land Speeder Squadron (2 Landspeeders) 180
2 Landspeeders w/ Assual Cannons

Heavy Support
Vindicator (1 Tank) 125
siege shield


General tactics are concentrating fire on isolated enemy units; rush the flanks and seizing objects with tactical squad. The bike captain will lead the charge, and after shooting is through, hopefully charge what is left of the enemy on one side of the table

This leaves me with 40 pts left over. Ideas? Comments?


Thanks

I would get a Ironclad in a drop pod, equiped with two heavy flamers, to run interferences as the rest of the army runs to meet the enemy. Set up like that is good for knocking armor and roasting critters.

[Tacitus Aemilius]

An Ironclad Dreadnought, even though it has a drop pod is a slow moving unit. It wouldn't really be able to keep up with my force, but I do like the idea of it drawing fire away from the bikes and causing lots of havoc. in addition to the Heavy Flamers, what close combat weapons would you but on it? maybe a Sesmic Hammer and DCCW?

[Backdraft005]

Yeah, only change would be the additional heavy flamers to it. It would create a fire magnetand if it lands close to a unit, it'll roast some baddies while your army goes full speed ahead.

Also, maybe do a MultiMelta and Heavy flamer setup on the Speeders.
