I definitely did run down the possibility of doing that in my head when you mentioned it. I am, however, admittedly quite hesitant about dropping my Predator numbers below 3. Mainly because of the "Rule of Three's", but also because the Predators provide my very fragile force with durable front armor. Because my Razorbacks can shoot over the top of the Predators via LOS, they will be providing very important vehicle-based cover to my Razorbacks/infantry (AV13 laughs at Str 7/8). Losing one exposes quite a few of my forces to incoming fire.

While I'm not tossing the idea yet, I'm leery of putting the Ven Dread with AC into the list because of its lack of range. In addition, even if its hard to kill, it isn't hard to shake/stun with its AV12. Still, I may make the change due to my desire for a counter-assault (bubblewrap) unit.

@Algesan
I'd like to fit in another Terminator squad, but I don't know where I'd pick up the points to do so without sacrificing so much in the list to do it. Losing Predators causes my list to become much more fragile as a whole, as well as losing armor saturation. If I lose Land Speeders, I lose quite a few Missile Launcher/Melta/Heavy Bolter shots. I could take out Troops, but I'm leery of doing this as well for obvious reasons (though, I'm considering this option).

We'll see. It might happen, it might not. There is still some time yet before Nova, but I want to get the kinks out now before I'm scrambling to get painting done last minute. :D

@Bigdunc
I try to avoid Vassal whenever possible, and to be honest, I've not played it in so long I'd have to relearn the entire program. But I'll keep you in mind.

As for the horde armies, I honestly am not concerned with them in the least. I have enough AI to deal with them and even if I didn't, I don't need a whole lot of dedicated weaponry to beat them. It'd be nice, but in my experience, not necessary. Infantry have huge weaknesses: tank shocks, lack of AT weaponry, take up lots of space. When the time comes, if it comes, I can exploit these weaknesses. I AM a little bit concerned with Jumper armies though, but I think I can mitigate their effectiveness via deployment.

@Everyone
The searchlights stay, at least on the Razorbacks. With Mission #1 being Dawn of War each day, I'll have to play at least 2 games with Nightfighting. Possibly up to 4, due to Mission #4 being a roll off of the three possible missions. That means I cannot afford to not be able to shoot on first turn, especially when the primary mission goal is KP. :O

Keep the suggestions coming. I'm considering everything I get, and after I get a few play-testing games in, we'll see what needs to be changed up. :)

@Cory
Like I said, a kinda-sorta counter-assault unit. lol! I don't have AAC, but I do have the 3x I5 PW attacks on the Marshal, as well as the 2x I4 PW attacks on the Sergeant. I gave the Marshal a storm bolter so he could fire with the rest of the squad, but I'll see if I can squeeze 10 points. In the end, it was just a side list that I was considering.

@Algesan
Remember, the Commander himself doesn't need Terminator armor to use a terminator command squad. Only other ICs that intend to attach themselves to the unit. The codex makes a very subtle differentiation that allows it.

As for the AV13 on the Predators, I think I'll have to show how to deploy to make use of this. Its actually quite easy to make sure your opponent doesn't have side shots to your predators without gaining cover. I guess there is a lame name for it, something like the Marine Box. Anyway, the front armor is really only important on the first turn where you need the protection prior to blowing your opponent away, especially if you don't have the first turn.

Aye, this is true. They really only need to get their first couple of shots off while blocking LOS to the rest of my stuff. Then they can die if my opponent deems it necessary.

Remember that most other opponents (except Dark Eldar) don't have that mobility to skirt the sides for the side shots. We do, because our Typhoons are ridiculously cheap. Other SM chapters don't have it so good and have to pay 90 points for theirs, so don't use them often as they aren't as cost effective. I guess Orcs do too if they have Deffcoptas. But those are things that will be early targets for me, because they have that big mobility. :O

As Bigdunc put it, drop lists could potentially cause problems for me because they can drop with relatively accuracy where ever they desire. Problematic to be sure, but not unbeatable. :/

To be completely honest, of all of the things I'd thought about, I'd not remembered the possible upgrade for the Predators. While I don't normally advise using them, they'd fit the style of list I'm running. I can drop the chainfists, MM, and 1 Pred searchlight to gain the needed points to make the upgrades. This is why I posted the lists up. ;)

I want to keep Abhor, because it allows me to reposition if necessary, as well as gives me some basic Psychic defense (not great, but something is better than nothing). Plus, with the huge amounts of cover in the game, I'd hate to lose that in exchange for 6+ invulnerables. :(

I got to playtest the list that I posted here in the comments against a SW Loganwing list. Needless to say, he conceded on his 2nd turn (he went 1st) after he didn't get any of his 2nd half of his army. I lost 1 predator and 2 marines on the first game turn, but I essentially tabled his 1st half of his army in one turn of shooting. Not bad. We played the Nova Open 2011 Mission #3.

Leads me to believe that I've hit a niche and even I was surprised by the amount of firepower I was putting out. It was devastating. :D

I might just have to make that change, as the Marshal wasn't totally needed, but he WAS helpful. He throw down a preemptive assault down on Logan's unit that wrecked face, though it did result in the Marshal dying. But with how I remember the dice rolling, the end result would have been very similar with a normal terminator unit.
