Hello - this list will be mostly facing eldar, drop pod space wolves, necrons, and vanilla marines, I realize its my first post but please bash all you want! I am relavivley new to the game, but have been looking around on LO and dakkadakka, etc. to try and make a decent list with not too many noob mistakes

HQ - 175
Demon prince
wings
MoN
warptime

Elites - 200
Termies x 5
chainfist x 2
LC pair
combi-melta x 2

Troops - (x4) - 1024
Plague marines x 7
Champion
Powerfist
melta x 2
rhino

Heavy -
Land Raider (for termies) - 220

Oblit x 4 - 300

This Puts me at 1919, but I'm not entirely sure where to put the remaining 81 points, so help will be much appreciated:act-up:

This would be a great list against other short ranged armies

The only major flaw with it is lack of ranged antitank as soon as those oblits are gone.

With those 81 points I can see 2 uses right now:
- Find 19 more points and add a dreadnaught with missile launcher
- add a fifth obliterator and a a third combi-melta to your terminators.

Id agree with the 5th obliterator.
Dreads arent worth the points.

in terms of ranged anti-tank, should i drop an oblit, put in a defiler, and add another melta to the termies? bringing me to 3 oblits and a defiler, with 3 combi-meltas, or stick with all oblits, keeping 5 plus another combi-melta

 

[joebloggs1987]

Another option is running combi-meltas on the Champions to fill in a couple of points.

That puts me at 2029, how do you think i should shave off those 29 points?

thanks for the advice, however -

it is my understanding that the PM squads already have the icon of nurgle, as described in their spial rules. im not sure about quoting no-nos with the codex, so i will say that on page 81 of the codex, it says that the squad icons stack on top top personal icons, so if my marine squads have the icon of nurgle, is iot redundant to equip personal icons for the termies?
