        Well sure - you're losing a point of armor and 2
points of assault (and gaining mucho movement). I don't
know if the point totals work out, but I certainly
wouldn't expect the Capt on bike to cost more (after
all, basic space marine is 15 points, a bike is only 10
points).

        The WD 210 lists were done by Gavin, I believe.
Which would explain the underpriced units and ridiculous
ideas (giving all SWs a +1 assault? why?).
