My thoughts:

Well, i just can't seem to get the hang of how to use drop pods in a good way. I actally don't feel very comfortable with marines yet. Terminators in drop pods are not as good as teleporting ones, thats for sure. the grey hunters feel very durable and can take alot of fire before breaking.

And this time the AMTL list felt very hard to beat, but it was more to my incompetence with the marines i think.

Oh this looks like a hard fought battle. Nice one!

Yeah the AMTL is a harder nut for marines and I expect harder for SW but that's 100% gut feeling on my part. I've poked Apoc into trying that match up myself so it'll be interested to see how our experiences compare. Pod'd Terminators are harder to use I expect than they are in something like IH, where the termies would come along with dreadnoughts for a harder hitting package. I'm with you on being somewhat at a loss to best leverage them that way.

Those Great Companies really can soak up the BMs. I was impressed with them.

Curious to get better insight on how the drop coordinates for the termies worked out for you. Not quite sure where they landed in comparison to the board / formations.

Thanks for the report!

With marines you really need to concentrate on things. In this case, wipe out the small stuff or focus on a single assault to kill one titan at a time. Looking at the board up there, I think you really suffered from not killing the warhounds. Especially with the terminator assault only getting one formation close enough to the reaver to really hurt it.

I think you could have wiped out the warhounds t2 with the preds and termies which would have significantly changed the outcome.
