Newest 40k

Alot has been happening lately on the 40k side of things. I successfully painted all my minis for my bloodthirster deep strike a gogo Army. not a whole lot of stuff I have to get for them just finish of my crushers add a fiend and a grinder and I am finished with them.

I have finally got my marines muse working. I do believe I have an army list and feel I can be happy with. It is my Fleshtearers! Yes the Gabriel Seth model got me. Had my first game with them and have to say it was a lot of fun. I wanted certain things in my army so it was very hard to get a coherent list that still played well. Here's the list

Gabriel Seth (of course)
Sanguinary priest no upgrades
Chaplain no upgrades
Death company x7, thunder hammer
Death Company Dreadnought blood talons
x3 assault squads 5 man melta, power weapon
Razorback Lascannon, TL plasma gun (These are too effective not to have lol)
Tactical squad 10 man flamer, multimelta sergeant has powerfist and bolter
Rhino (Wanted at least one of these squads)
Baal Predator TL assault cannon, Heavy bolter sponsons (really wanted one of these)
Devastator squad 5 man 3 missile launchers, Lascannon
Razorback Lascannon, TL plasma gun (wanted one of these)
Stormraven hurricane bolters, TL assault cannons, TL Multimelta (Really wanted this)

The only thing I wasnt sure of was the death company clump. I had an Assault Terminator squad and Furioso plus 2 tactical squads and 2 assault squads, but I really felt I needed rerolls to make them the killers I needed them to be. To do that I would have to drop Seth to take either a reclusiarch or a Librarian in termi armor and storm shield. Or keep Seth and drop a troop choice. Neither of these appealed to me as I feel marines need at least 4 troops choices and from that you can get 5 or 6 scoring units.

As far as the feel of the unit, it is an armored spearhead racing forward, lancing through the enemy lines supported by the Deathcompany strike force in stormraven, ready to race forward and break any enemy strongpoints.
