Doubles Tournament

I'm off to a 1700 Point Doubles Tournament on Friday. They're using a modified FOC as follows

Each army consists of...

1 HQ

1+ Troops

0-2 of Fast Attack, Heavy Support + Elites

My and Flello are taking the following army (twice)

Edit: We're now not taking this because I had a better idea which is at the bottom of this post.

Space Marine Captain (100), Bike (+35) (135)

Bike Squad (90), Additional Biker (+25), Meltagun x2 (+20), Multi-Melta Attack Bike (+50) (185)

Landspeeder Squadron x2 (100), Typhoon Missle Launcher x2 (+80) (180)

Landspeeder Squadron x2 (100), Typhoon Missle Launcher x2 (+80) (180)

Predator (60), Heavy Bolter Sponsons (+25) (85)

Predator (60), Heavy Bolter Sponsons (+25) (85)

Note: 1 of the Speeder Squadrons will have Heavy Flamers instead of Heavy Bolters for objective clearing purposes.

Total -850

Unfortunately due to financial constraints we've been forced to use what I have available.

Had I the spare cash I would have took a Blood Angels gunline with 4-6 Sanguinary Priests combined with a Tyranid Horde with the Priests attached to each of the Horde units. This would have given me an assault horde that also had Furious Charge and Feel no Pain.

Now I just need to Paint 4 Landspeeders, 12 Bikes and a Predator by Thursday Night....

Edit: After thinking about it this might work better...

Space Wolves - 850

Rune Priest (100), Chooser (+10), Stormcaller+ Tempests Wrath (+0) (110)

Grey Hunters x5 + Flamer (75), Las/Plas Razorback c/w Hunterkiller Missile (+85) (160)

Total - 1700

4 Scoring units

2 Chances to stop psychic powers using the Psychic Hood and the Runic Staff

Null Zone to help with those pesky Assault Terminators.

4 Predators for anti-infantry

4 Lascannons and 4 Plasmaguns for anti-vehicle/anti heavy infantry

8 Krak Missiles or 8 Frag Missiles + a couple of Hunterkillers

A couple of Multi-Meltas for those Land Raider Moments

That seems a lot better (and involves less painting which is a bonus ;-))
