I just got all my wonderful stuff and am looking forward to assemblilng it.  My question is about char upgrades, do they just replace a tact marine?  Also for my supreme commander should I use the command squad (has no in game effect  i think) instead of a stand of tacticals?  Please help and thank you.

Hi. Any upgrade with the Character note - Commander, Chaplain, Librarian - replaces a standard Marine on the base.

Essentially, you can represent the Supreme Commander in any way that you like, but yes the most common stand is a full command stand. You may want to look at the metal Marine character pack if you have the money spare, but it is not necessary.

Essentially you can just replace one Marine with the chracrter of your choice. You can also make command squads from different characters within the character pack. See below for some examples of what I have done.

Command Squad with Standard Bearer, Terminator Bodyguards, Commander and Librarian



Librarian Character in a Devastator Unit



Captain added to as Assault Unit



And some other examples of adding characters









Enjoy creating your Marine force

Cool and thanks I had been wanting to start assembling, and I do have the char pack which is why I asked about that sc sprue thanks.

Also added question does the attack bike go on a stand?  Its never shown on one but  it comes with a base for it

Edit: remembered bike question

I use the old square 20mm x 20mm bases for things like Attack Bikes, Dreadnaughts and Landspeeders. Makes it easier to move them around the place and less handling of your nicely painted mini.

Cheers
Aaron

It came with an extra bike base (5 bases(the default bike one)) should I glue it on there or a 20mm sounds good too though I just know tiny bike on a huge base
