A few Things come to mind.....

HQ: Don't waste his wonderful Int., Give him a Power Weapon. Also because he is HQ, he can be picked out in assault, so making him strike last ain't any good!

Scouts: Switch the Missile Launcher for a Heavy Bolter. They can'thoot at different targets, the heavy Bolter is a better match tfor the Snipers with the same range and it can help deal more wonds to put them below 50% and thus have -1 ld for the pinning test!

Tactical Sqads: I'd Drop the Plasma Pistol (it's just wait to kill your sarge!) and inseat buy some Meltaguns for your marines.

Predator: I'm guessing if has Lascannon Sponsons? /IF so I'd sujest against it, as the rest of your army is moving up very fast and leaving the Predator behind and vulerable, I'd give it the Heavy Bolter Spons so it can not only move and shoot but can kill tanks or infantry, making it more worthwhile. Also throw on Smoke Launchers, those can save you the game by letting your tank live that one extra round. Sometimes at least!

Not to bad otherwise as far as I know.

Only use one power fist in all your troops choices. Just give close combat weapon. That's for both tactical squads.
Scouts perfect have them infiltrate if versing.
Tau
Eldar
Maybe orks=if you want to bow up a buggy really fast or something.

It's ok they just might get targeted really fast so try to keep them out of enemy sight.

Exactly what i would of done.

Well that sums it up. All my opinoin.

Noctem · July 31st, 2006, 17:40

New and Improved. Until I buy a new chaplain that can use lightning claws (my current one is the one on the top left corner. If there is a way to convert it, do tell, but for the time being im using it as it is..

I'm not sure what to do with the lascannon side sponsor's because i've been told to both keep them, and to get heavy bolters. Anyone know some good tactica? (Yes I'm about to read the SM Tactica.) I also need color scheme help (I'm going to buy most of this tommorow), so if you have any suggestions... I'm open to anything.

For power fist it is very easy use green stuff and shave down some of the knifes and put them in the green stuff. Or if wanted buy box of termies use there power claws and cut off is arms.

Noctem · July 31st, 2006, 19:24

Ok I'll do that, but aside from the lightning claws, how is the rest of the army. Any color scheme ideas?

The Toon · July 31st, 2006, 19:36

Yes i got some colors in my mind.
SCHEMES:
chaos black and shining gold
Mithril silver and chaos black (gold on the waepons not the whole weapn)
Dark angels green and goblin green wiht some black.
Regal blue ink was the blue and sun burst yellow.
