Warhammer 40k Space Marine Codex Help?

Im in an escalation league, and i haven't gotten a codex yet. Im playing the space marines and I just need someone to tell me exactly how many points my current list is and it would be a great help if u could list stats and anything else you think i'd need to play. (i am going to a store where people go to play, so i assume people there will know how to play, but id like to know so i don't have to ask.)



two squads of 5 space marines each, just bolters

5 terminaters

a space marine captain, with artificer armour and two lightning claws



not the greatest list, I know, but as of now the league has a max of 525 points, and it goes up every week. Im hoping with the low number of points, having terminaters will basically win me the battle and the crappy squads of space marines wont make a difference.Warhammer 40k Space Marine Codex Help?
5 man marine squad is 90 points and you get:



sergeant with bolter and bolt pistol - he can replace either with a chainsword for free.



4 marines with bolters



everyone gets frag and krak grenades for free



Sergeant can replace either of his bolt weapons with a combi-weapon (+10), storm bolter(+10), plasma pistol(+15), power weapon(+15), power fist(+25)



Sergeant gets 2 attacks



5 terminators = 200 pts



captain =100 pts



free stuff = iron halo, frag and krak grenades



paired lightning claws = 30 pts

articifer armour = 15pts



total = 90 + 90 + 200 + 145 = 525



If you took a single marine squad, you'd lose a sergeant but for the same price you could then take a free flamer and you could also chose between a free missile launcher, heavy bolter or multi-melta.

You'd also have 10 pts spare to get your sergeant a stormbolter or combi-weapon instead of a bolter.

That's because a squad is 90, 5 extra marines are 80 at 16 pts each.



Combat squads allow you to split your squad up into two combat squads of 5 each.

how you expect to win a game with two troop choices i have no idea but....



tactical squad one :90 points

tactical squad 2: 90 points



terminators: 200 points

Captain:100 +15+15+15



only points changes from last codex is the captain's weapon skill has increased by one, wont say any more since that actually illegal (GW has a very strict IP policy).
