I'm keen to get some thoughts following on this wanting to put on a good show at the local venue.
There are 4 ways I could go. 3 lists I work from regularly and 1 I'm hoping to cook up by then.
1. Gun line marines - lots of long range heavy weapons, Shoot till I have an advantage and then push forward. Typical units - Drednoughts, Whirlwind, vindicator, drop pods, Predator, stern guard
Typical List
Librarain
2 x Marines w/Drop pod
3 x Dreds
2 x Vindicators
1 x Whirlwind/Thunder Fire/Predator
Top up with scouts and marines
2. Mech Marines - Marines in rhinos with tanks for support. Typical units - Marines in Rhinos, Predator, Vindicator, Razor Back, land Raider
Typical List
Terminator Librarian/Captain w/terminators in Land Raider
3 x Marines in Rhinos
top with vindicator's/predator, Scouts, land raider Redeemer with marines
3. Horde Marines - as many marines as possible on the board.
Typical List
Captain for fluff, Librarian for power
60 Tactical Marines
Then add 1-2 devestator squads
Then Assault marines
Top with upgrades.
4. The New guard list This is coming soon, Hopefully by the end of the year. At present will look like
Comand Squad
40-60 Veterans 2 chimera's
10 Storm Troopers
1-3 sentinels with Las Cannons
Leman Russ Demolisher
At the moment I'm thinking gun line with the following
1500 point Exorcist Trench Warfare Force
HQ
Librarian - Avenger, Gate of Infinity
Troops
Tactical Squad - Plasma Pistol, Plasma Gun, Multimelta, Drop Pod
Tactical Squad - Plasma Pistol, Melta Gun, Multimelta, Drop Pod
Tactical Squad - Flamer, Lascannon, Rhino
Elites
Drednought - Twin Linked Lascannon, Missile Launcher
Drednought - Twin Linked Lascannon, Missile Launcher
Drednought - 2 x Twin Linked Autocannon
Heavy Support
Vindicator
Vindicator
Predator - Auto Cannon, Heavy bolter Sponsons
Any thoughts? This may be a little over the top. The idea is the Librarian drops in with the plasma gun squad to pop rear armour, Melta gun squad comes in later to take an objective, Rhino squad with the tanks and dreds forms a fire base, Pop transports, take out key units, slow the advance.
I have no close combat and will strugle against hordes but this should be fun, If they get to me I'm screwed.
