Mission Prep

So lessons learned from the most recent battle, my first experience with 5th edition.
1. Space marines with 3+ armor save don't need a 4+ cover save.
2. 10 man tactical squads are much better.
3. Beef up HQ and Command squad more strategically.
4. Be more strategic with Deep Strike .
5. Orks can't shoot for shit, shouldn't fear the big guns.
6. Orks are nasty in close combat, move and shoot, keep them at bay.

I put together 1500 points for a battle on Monday:
Company Master
Command Squad (5Man)
Tactical Squad x3 (10Man)
Terminator Squad x2 (5Man)
Dreadnought

42 total models. Probably still pretty light for 1500, hopefully round 2 goes a little smoother.

We'll see how it turns out.
