Scouts have some added benefits and cost a bit less. Damien Garcia played a squad of bikes at Adepticon and said it was the most fun he's had with any unit in 40k, ever.<br /><br />Just a thought. Good luck with the unit!<br /><br />How'd you do on Finals?<br /><br />Steve<br /><a href="http://www.squidoo.com/40k-terrain" rel="nofollow">40k Terrain</a>Stevehttp://www.squidoo.com/40k-terrainnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539860848719328014.post-63511175342274028112011-05-08T14:03:42.146-05:002011-05-08T14:03:42.146-05:00I guess the lots of storm shields is because I fee...I guess the lots of storm shields is because I feel they are so cheap, I'm used to 30 points for one with space wolves. Thought I guess on 1 wound models that don't also have a 2+ and are close combat terminators they are a bit expensive. <br /><br />I can also see the utility of dropping 2 or 4 bikes from each of the troops. That gets me another troop or two. <br /><br />Also, I don't think the apothecary can take wargear, correct?Bryce963https://www.blogger.com/profile/18245720811090674439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7539860848719328014.post-77606526181191055122011-05-08T08:45:22.201-05:002011-05-08T08:45:22.201-05:00So much toughness 5.

Here's how...I run lists like this all the time. Here's how I would adjust it:<br /><br />1) Khan. Why not pay 25pts more, get a better weapon, better statline, a hit and run command squad and the entire army can outflank.<br /><br />2) make each bike unit 4 bikers strong plus a MM attack bike. They're 175pts a piece. Add PF as needed. 30 Scoring bikers instead of 34 which frees up points for:<br /><br />3) Attack bike squads. These are pure gold. No, they don't score. Instead, you run them as suicide units to wipe out heavy armor.<br /><br />4) Drop the storm shields on the command squad. You're not going to care if these guys take a hit or not. I load mine up with Plasma and a few lightning claws and run them around the board wiping out units silly enough to go out into the open. Relentless allows you to rapid fire 8 shots, the apothecary keeps it so only one in 36 shots kills a marine, and then you assault with furious charge from Khan. If anything survives, you can h&r away as needed.massawyrmnoreply@blogger.com
