"Hey Kirby,
I've been working on the dreadbubble list that we were talking about a while back, and a bit of working around to come up with something I'm relatively happy with, so here it is.

Master of the Forge - 190
- Conversion Beamer, Bike


Scouts - 100
- 5 Scouts w/Snipers, ML, Camo Cloaks

Tactical Marines - 165
- 5 Tactical Marines
- Razorback w/LasPlas

Tactical Marines - 165
- 5 Tactical Marines
- Razorback w/LasPlas

Tactical Marines - 165
- 5 Tactical Marines
- Razorback w/LasPlas

Tactical Marines - 165
- 5 Tactical Marines
- Razorback w/LasPlas

Terminators - 400
- 10x TH/SS Terminators

Dreadnought - 165
- MM/HF/DCCW/EA

Dreadnought - 165
- MM/HF/DCCW/EA

Dreadnought - 125
- 2x TLAC

Dreadnought - 125
- 2x TLAC

Dreadnought - 125
- 2x TLAC

Land Speeder - 70
- MM/HF

2000

Another version of the list is to drop the bike and the EA on the dreads and add another MM/HF speeder in, but then it puts me about 5-10 points over which I don't want to do. Just wondering what your general thoughts for the list are, and also if I've made any point errors. I plan on turning it into an Angry Marines list (so the terminators are going to have Nailbats and Powerchairs and other angry weapons) which is more about fun but still semi-competitive. I've added a compacted version on to the end aswell.
Cheers, The Wolf's Lunch."


Dropping the Bike is a good idea as he has no where to really use the Bike's speed without some sort of drawback. Part of any squad and he isn't using his mobility and part of TH/SS he's getting closer. Solo he's easy to pick off with a missile or lascannon from range so the best bet is to lose that and plunk him with the Scouts. I'm pretty sure you've overspent on the MotF as a MotF w/Beamer is 120 points. Dropping the bike and paying the correct points frees up 70 - perfect for another Land Speeder.

I'm not a huge fan of mass MSU Tacticals as they don't really bring anything outside of bolters to the table (and of course the Razorback). I'd be looking to put together the points to add in some combi-whatevers to their lines as well. Best bet here is probably dropping the EA on the Dreadnoughts though it looks you've overpaid for them too unless they are coming with Drop Pods?

Overall the list looks okay though weak in scoring in terms of raw numbers and your TH/SS will have mobility issues without a librarian and gate and whilst your firepower is decent, it's not great so you're going to be relying on your MM Dreads + TH/SS doing something each game.
