Nice space marine force - not too struck on the LR's but that it just as I feel they are overcosted, Warhounds are pretty essential, good mix of infantry but lacks terminators one of the Marines few bargain units.

IG looks cool but no artillery? Come on lets get a battery or two in there

Can't comment on Orks or Chaos as i've not wielded them in battle yet.

I've got a full artillery company but sadly it is not painted

Also i think IG artillery are too powerful, especially against orks armies, am i wrong? I't's a feeling, nothing real to base my argumentation.

For the termy you are right but i don't have the miniatures

Thanks

From my experience, I would move the stompas from the warband across to the Stompa Mob.

For the IG list I'd drop the Demolishers and split the SHT comapny into three support formations for greater flexability.

Does the SHT company have to remain in coherency then? Can it not be split like in NetEPIC days?

Unit coherency for WEs is 5cm x starting DC.
