Going back to 40K - Part 3 (b) - Rock, Paper, Scissors

With the foot list generating no comments whatsoever I can only presume that it's awesomeness was such that you were all rendered speechless...or that you thought it was shit. I'm not sure if the following list fits into a 'Rock Paper Scissors' category. It does however only do one thing...it shoots at you...

Apparently the American version of Rock, Paper, Scissors is played differently...
Blood Angels - 1750

1 Librarian in Power Armour, 100 pts (Shield of Sanguinius; Some Other Power..probably The Sanguine Sword)

3 Assault Squad, 170 pts (Remove Jump Packs)
1 Assault Marine with Meltagun [BA] (Remove Jump Packs)
1 Sergeant (Melta Bombs; Remove Jump Packs; Bolt Pistol; Close Combat Weapon)
1 Razorback (Lascannon and TL Plasmagun)

1 Land Speeder Squadron, 70 pts (Multi-melta x1; Heavy Flamer x1)

1 Land Speeder Squadron, 80 pts (Multi-melta x1; Multi-melta x1)

1 Land Speeder Squadron, 80 pts (Multi-melta x1; Multi-melta x1)

1 Stormraven Gunship, 200 pts (4x Bloodstrike Missiles)

1 Stormraven Gunship, 200 pts (4x Bloodstrike Missiles)

Total Roster Cost: 1750

At 2000 points I'll add a Sternguard unit with some Plasma weapons and a Las/Plas Razorback.

I can do this without buying anything else as I apparently own two Stormraven Gunships still in the boxes and  I also have a pair of unassembled Land Speeders that I can assemble into the 'two Multi-melta' configuration.

It's 'sort of' balanced but we all know that combat squads of Marines don't survive for very long in the world of 6th edition...Razorbacks still work just fine though...differently...but still fine ;-)

Thoughts and comments are (as usual) most welcome.

  1. Can none of escape the GrimDark completely?
    Am starting to wonder?
    Stupid GrimDark.
    Why does such an awesome universe have such a lame-ass game as it's flagship.
    The S.S. StoopidHeadFail.

    1. When you've invested as much time in that system as I have it's difficult to let go completely. Plus I still get a lot of e-mails about it and making a balanced 6th Edition list is still something I believe can be done...well I hope so anyway...

      Malifaux is my 'go to' for fun gaming though ;-)
