Primary plan is standard Pod Assault spearheaded with Ironclads and followed by squadded Tacticals. Champ rides in a late Pod and Chaplain goes with the ASM. Jumpers work better than bikes in the parking lot that's sure to happen, especially if I build a "wall" out of the three Ironclads and their Pods. Secondary plan is keep the Tacticals together in a skirmish line and use their empty Pods to build a funnel into the kill zone. Talons provide fire support and the Crusader rule provides post-Drop mobility and sweeping advance support.

I don't think there's anyway to go but MARINES for this one. The pods will give them more manouverability than the demons and if they land in front of the demon lines they will be making a mess in combat the next turn. Three dreadnoughts are going to be a pain for the demons to kill and I can see the marines just clearing the demons from any close held objectives.

 

[Exarch Thomo]

Marines

I think the alpha-strike is going to do enough damage to majorly upset the summoning shenanigans that have seen the daemons through the previous rounds.

(By the way, I'm liking how well this SM is doing. It's good to see a solid marine list not relying on gimmicks, cherry-picking and min-maxing from a bunch of different splatbooks)

 

[Frost89]

Marines

Drop pods, drop pods everywhere. With some target priority and average shooting, daemons will be on the back foot from the beginning.

 

[Slayer-Fan123]

It is DAEMONS. Templar might have a lot of pods, but they don't have the offensive output required to stop the summoning, and they simply won't be able to hold the objectives.
