Hi,
Yes, I did have a few ideas and actually came up with what I now believe could be a better SM army at 600 points, thing to remember with Invasion is, although you have 600 points, picked from a Codex and using Force Organisational chart, you also have another 600 point army to (hopefully) back it up. As I had actually got 5 Assault Marines and a Chaplain as Christmas pressies off friends, I was on my way with that original army list.
My latest idea has been
Librarian level 1 with Force Axe
10 Sniper Scouts with Camo Cloaks
10 Tactical Marines, Veteran Sergeant with Combi-Melta and Rhino Dedicated Transport
3 Biker Marines, Veteran Sergeant with Powerfist
3 Biker Marines, Veteran Sergeant with Powerfist
Yes, it is a complete change from my previous idea and yes, I was thinking not to bother with reserves when plotting my army and then I got the sad news from the manager of our local store, that as far as they knew, Warhammer World are not running inter store Invasion days anymore. Whether this is a temporary thing due to their calendar being full, works going on in the area or what, they couldn't say.
I find that quite sad, as I enjoyed chatting with other gamers whom I had not met before on the journey and also my brother and a couple of friends had expressed their interest in going along as well. Hopefully Warhammer World are still going to be running their own Invasions, or a day's Battle Brothers and we could go down as a group (due to funds, I don't think we could afford a 2 day event, what with paying for digs as well as meals, travel AND tournament.
