Bloated Toad

Ok, did some fiddling, changed a couple point costs to the lower current ones, and still have no real idea what I'm looking at.  Is this better or worse?  I like Telion, I suppose I will have to have him, which means this is now Ultramarines...

Yep, just a hair north in Battle Ground.

Currently remodeling the list to include Telion, and possibly a Predator/Land Raider.  I’ll post what I come up with later tonight hopefully.

@Bloated Toad Chad? Is that you? You getting back into 40k??!!

Indeed I am.  Starting to play with my sons, I reckon it’s time to get some plastic army men on again!   Really looking forward to WFB coming back as well, I do very much miss gaming...

Oops, I forgot to actually put the sniper part on the scouts descriptions.  They are all supposed to be sniper scouts, I guess that would help any discussions.  
 

I played 2nd through early 6th, and haven’t really touched the game since.  I will have to sort out the CP thing.  I just found out about the forced doctrine changes, that is a bummer.  
 

Would I be better switching the Devs to more Lascannons and less Missiles?  They are the same cost, of it’s worth it I would totally be good going that route.  I’ll already have four missiles on the scout units, if they are meh I’ll start switching things up.  
 

I appreciate your input, it’s weird feeling like a newb....

It's been a LOOOONG time since I have played 40k, multiple editions have now come and gone since my Eldar passed on to a new home.  I am ready to dive back in, but am uncertain what I want to do.  I had originally planned a Tau force consisting almost entirely of Hammerheads and Fire Warriors in Devilfish.  Mobile infantry.  I believe that I have moved on from that.  I didn't think it possible, but I am actually going to build a smurf force.  The question is, what sort.  I have a vision.  I am not sure it is a wise one, but unless it is one that would be a total disaster I am going to move forward with it.  What does Ordo think, does this look like a viable force?

Yes, I know my armor is garbage, and the poor Talon WILL die every game, probably early.  But would this be even somewhat feasible?  I just want to blow stuff up and cause havoc, I know this isn't going to be a tremendously flexible force that I can win tons of games with.  I just want to pew things.  Is this the sort of thing no one will want to play against?  Hoping I have the points right....

What say ye????????
