Glancing at some of the Marine costs and stats, they seem to have gotten worse for some units. Land Raiders are 400 pts a detachment and their Firefight is now 5+ as an example. Is this how they always were or am I mistaken?

There have been no stat mods, sadly that's how LRs have always been.
They're 350pts at UK tournaments!

And yet still aren't taken.  :grin:

Really? At 350 they look quite good to me, same/more firepower than 275 predators and twice as survivable, with a better fit with a couple of vindicator. Not the most amasing formation in the list (Warhound) but solid. The upgrade for 300 for 4 is extremely tempting as well (cople of tricked out Dev formations mayhaps?).

and when was the last time you took predators? I cannot for the life of me remember the last time I considered them for a Marine force...

..or maybe I just havn't played Marines for a long time....?

Predators (annihilators) and a hunter. Standard cheap way of getting at firepower and AA to back up the thunderhawks and warhounds.

no doubt I will find out the hard way in a vassal game in the near future...?

When I get some time of course   :;):

I take Predator Annihilators quite a bit at 275pts.

I never take Predator Destructors, even at 275pts and a FF increase to 4+, as they're simply a liability to the army.

Chroma is working on it and has been posting drafts of the army lists for people to look through at spot any errors in.

Yes, I've recently spotted that, and I will, hopefully, get a chance to look at the Eldar thread tomorrow.
