Going from Ravenwing to White Scars goodness!

I was having a bunch of fun running Ravenwing. Running the Dakka Banner, a couple Power Field Generators, the awesomeness of what are the black knights with rad grenades. It was sweet but Heldrakes were a nightmare to face.

Now that the Space Marines codex came out, it has giving me new ideas on bike armies. With White Scars having +1 to jink, hit in run, passing all dangerous terrain tests, Grav guns being tasty candy, and Thunder Fire Cannons being insanely good, I've made the decision to build my bike army around White Scars allying with Dark Angels for the PFG protection and some rad grenade plasma talon goodness.

It has enough of everything to deal with most units. It does suffer from low model count but hopefully its speed helps. TFG for sniping and anti infantry in cover. Talons for anti air. Enough Plasma and Grav Guns for MCs and TL Bolters for anti infantry. Im really digging this list.

  1. Looks like you will still have issues with the Heldrakes, but it looks like a really fun list. That Chapter Master is a BEAST!
