A project I have been working on for some time... I've play-tested a good amount of this list and I would like some others to give it a try and see if I achieved a fairly decent balance. This list is based on the 40k Vanilla Marines list. The only unit type not tested on this list is the Sniper Teams- I really am not sure how vicious a unit of snipers will be.
I also have one for Imperial Guard, The Tau and have been working on one for Battle-sisters.
Constructive critique... and reports on how they work for you please.
