Heh - MARINES everywhere! And they should all be the single piece marines from the old kits and old paint kits haha. Covered in 10 layers of paint.
    A full Company.

    Half are my "First thing I've ever painted in my life" marines. Half are newer ones where you can see I finally learned to paint inside the lines. ooooo so skillful!

    The scouting rhino rush with grav cannons is without a doubt the easy mode of 40k, but once you ally in a servo skull inquistor it falls on its face. Its 100% designed around that scout move.
    I Noodlers, solemnly swear not to buy any new or used models until I have completed the following

    Painted my Chaos Space Marines, Dark Angels, and Imperial Guard to a tournament standard

    Yup exactly - stopping the scout move does wonders against it. Of course - then usually as a Gladius either you just say eff it - turbo after moving and see if you survive to shoot turn 2 or just outflank. Still not the best option. Just so many bodies.

    And awesome - full company of dudesmen. Bolters for days hahah.

    I'm painting up my last tac squad to finish out my 60 tac marines. Then I'll have an assault squad to do to have my full battle company. Yes, I plan on playing with 60 tactical marines at some point soon.
