The Thunderbolt Fighter is excellent insurance against enemy air attack. They are cheap, resilient, and carry decent firepower. Once enemy anti-aircraft capability has been neutralised, they can be used to great effect in clearing up fleeing formations.

Landing Craft
The Space Marine Landing Craft is a huge aircraft capable of carrying up to three formations of Space Marines plus four Land Raiders or Six vehicles based on the Rhino hull. An air assault from one of these aircraft can be hard to deal with for an opponent.
Stormraven Gunship
The Stormraven Gunship is a compact and deadly airbourne fighting platform. Its Bloodstrike Missiles will destroy multiple armoured targets, and its ability to transport infantry and a Dreadnought make this an extremely useful unit.
Predator Annihilator
The Predator Annihilator is an anti armour tank based on the Rhino chassis. It’s faster than the Land Raider, though less resilient.

Accompanying Notes
Started around 2012, this is the first army I tried out miniature dioramas for the basing. The dioramas keep things interesting from a modelling and painting perspective, and it’s as least as satisfying as painting the miniatures themselves. I learned a few leasons while creating these bases, and the painting is not as polished as my later Sisters of Battle, but it’ll do! I can’t remember what army list I was working to, but it’s certainly not a useable force as it stands now. I need to add a few more units and formations in the future.
Strike, brothers!
Hunter
The Hunter is an anti-air tank based on the Rhino chassis. It has excellent range and is quite accurate. Hunters are essential if your army doesn’t have any form of air cover.
Attack Bike
The Space Marine Attack Bike adds some firepower to the otherwise close combat orientated bike formation. It’s not unusual to see one of these mixed in with the standard bikes to provide flexibility.
Space Marine Bike
Space Marine Bikes make excellent flanking units. They are generally assault specialists, but the unit can be given some longer ranged firepower by adding one or more Attack Bikes.
Terminators
Space Marine Terminators are elite fighting units capable of taking down most enemy units. They are one of the best counters to super heavy vehicles and Titans the Space Marine player can field.
Tactical Marines
Tactical Space Marines are the backbone of any army. They are excellent all-rounders, and can stay in the fight longer than troops belonging to other factions.
