Whats the best loadout for a Space Marine tactical squad?

Melta/Plasma/Flamer (debatable) and matching combi on the Sgt. Avoid the missle launcher.

5 man squad x1 grav gun
Free razorback
Twin linked assault cannon on the razorback

>>52136360
Or grav, if you're into that sort of thing. Plasma or Melta are usually a safe bet.

>>52136360
20 marines, all bolters

>>52136360
5 marines, melta or grav, in a razorback with either multi melta or assault cannon, to match the squad.

You can take a special weapon OR a heavy per 5 marines.

You can take 1 heavy in a 5 man squad

Spending your points in something else

The space marine meta is absolutely retarded.

It's all bikes, flyers and grav guns

what would you suggest for a beginning player starting space marines for like 500 or 1000 points

>>52138301
Get enough stuff to run 2 demi companys

>>52138392
what about a captain, two tac squads with plasma and heavy bolters, rhino and dreadnought

>>52136360
flamer+missile launcher

Generally heavy weapons have long range but need you to stay put. So you end up never firing your heavy weapon because you'd prefer multiple bolter shots OR never using your numerours bolter shots and fire only ONE weapon each turn.
Basically if you want heavy weapons, use Devastators - or even better, vehicles. The Tri-las Pred is a good choice.

I've killed Primarchs with this.

Best load out is grav, combi grav and grav cannon in a drop pod.
