Okay well the character of Black Templars involves a lot of on-foot or in vehicle combat units, which Primaris units don't really represent alone. They're also usually characterised by a relatively high model count for marine armies, and like all "PURGE" focused imperial armies, like fire.

BR won Dark Crusade, IG won Soulstorm, at least that's how it used to be before Dow 3

No, Blood Raven won DC. Avitus backstory is that he was present in the Purging of Victory Bay where the Blood Ravens curbstomped the IG.
>>
>>54769820

I'd say that Hellblasters and flame Agressors fit the character of Black Templars as support units pretty well, and the primaris chaplain would fit in pretty well.
>>
>>54769842
Yeah I know, I'm just pulling your leg.

Ravens won Dark Crusade, as told by Captain Davian Thule.

Guard won Soulstorm, as told by Cryus during DoW2.

Gorgutz lied about winning Soulstorm, during DoW3 - Not as if he's going to admit a failure so openly - why else is he working with a different warband during DoW3?

People seem to forget that Gorgutz starts DoW3 as a lieutenant pleb-peon to another ork warband entirely.

Because he lost his entire Waaaagh. And if you know Gorgutz from DoW:WA, he loves to run away.

>What about dreadnoughts?

Tankred is one of the most famous Black Templars and one of the most famous Dreadnoughts. He's a badass.

All cyrus says is that SM lost soulstorm.
And Orks did win soulstorm, it wasn't gorgutz who says as much, its stated in the games loading text.
>>
>>54769867
Dreddies are ok.
Tbh Primaris may not be the best way to play BTemplars, since their quirk is bigass Crusader squads and heroes buffing them, all to charge and soak fire while footslogging.
Primaris are few and not too melee oriented, I would pick one or the other desu.

>Guard won Soulstorm, as told by Cryus during DoW2.

No, Cyrus says nothing about who pwned the Blood Ravens. He just says that they lost hard.

>Gorgutz lied about winning Soulstorm, during DoW3 - Not as if he's going to admit a failure so openly - why else is he working with a different warband during DoW3?

Don't make things up. The lore of the game says Gorgutz won. It wasn't him claiming. After he won, he found records of a mysterious planet filled with treasure and that causes war wherever it goes. He left his Waaagh! behind and went to pursue a new adventure.
>>

Because of vance stubbs memes. They claimed he was some badass who BTFO'd everyone in soulstorm.
Now he's an incompltent retard who lost 100 baneblades (how he wasn't executed on the spot is beyond me) before jobbing to orks and dying.

Well I was only going by the knowledge I had.

But, being informed otherwise helps that!

No wonder the guard didn't win, though.

Wait a couple more weeks. You can reasonably expect them to get a points drop with the new codex. If they do, even if it's just down from 6 to 5, yes, they're worth it. Mindless is an amazing rule that makes them excellent bubblewrap and if you send them at chaff like Conscripts and Gaunts, they're not even a terrible assault unit.

Collecting kits, mostly. Raptors have a pretty high density of special weapons and there's one of each in the normal CSM box. Other than that, bits stores are always useful if you just HAVE to get one specific weapon and don't care about the cost.

They make me lose out on CP, which I want for stratagems. They're mediocre for their points costs, and don't really fit a good niche for space marines. Transporting a lot of models isn't really useful when your not a an army that ussualy takes a lot of models.

Thank you for your intelligent contribution.
Plague Marines have a datasheet in Codex: Chaos Space Marines, where it lists them as having two more special weapons to choose from (Plague Belcher and Plague Spewer) and four more melee weapons to choose from (Mace of Contagion, Flail of Corruption, Bubotic Axe and Great Plague Cleaver). We know the costs for the new guns, but nobody has seen fit to leak the costs of the melee weapons yet.

I know Ultras get a lot of hate here and some of it is deserved (they get a lot of love and Robby is fucking bananas)

This new codex has made me gravitate to them because their signature ability to fall back and unload is fucking cool and it perfectly encapsulates the image I have in my mind of how marines play.

Marines wouldn't stand around in a losing fight with a superior assault foe, they'd fall back and unleash their weaponry.

I really think GW got it right with all of the chapter tactics. I wonder what GW has planned for DA BA and SW going forward.

You know what the single most requested thing by female players is?

Female Space Marines. Aside from the sweaty, autistic fatlets who harass women the biggest problem to getting women into the hobby is representation.

I have no idea why GW hate money so much, they could open up to a huge new market and win plaudits. And if it means people like you go off in a huff, even better as it cleans out the player base of trash.

Very bad. They're heavy 1 special issue boltguns with slightly better range, but less shots and without the ability to get +1 to wound.
They'd be a more valid choice if they had better damage or the sniper rule, then they'd be worth it.
Esspecially if they could snipe, since that's one of the main functions of stalker bolters, and it would add something that primaris currently lack.

It is. Female space marine players are rather low. The exist, but the only one I can think of off the top of my head is that girl from texas who plays/played 30k and 40k imperial fists. I'm sure more exist, but I've never seen them.
It'd make more sense to ask for female CSM sculpts, since they're are more female CSM players than female SM players, and with stuff like slaness that isn't a ridiculous request.

There your models, do what you want. Unless you plan on playing competitively then it's not so terrible as to never field them.
And besides that, given how useless they are I would expect to see some minor buff in the future, even if it's a while, since GW wants to balance units before they start moving onto individual options I think.

The most common thing I've ever heard female players express is more armies with a more feminine aesthetic with eldar used as the example. That's probably followed by more and cuter tyranids, plastic sisters with helmets then more chairs in stores.

I've never once met an actual person in real life express a desire for female space marines.

So I'm setting up an Admech list for a game against Death Guard tomorrow. I'm guessing it's going to be the Konor mission. I only have the one Dominus, since in 7e I didn't need more than one because Skitarii were strong independent beepboops who don't need no man.

Anyway, Patrol Detachment:

Dominus, Volkite Blaster, Phosphor Serpenta (145)

Troops:

10 Vanguard, 3 Plascals, Omnispex (149)
3 Destroyers, Grav + Phosphor (219)
3 Destroyers, Grav + Phosphor (219)

Elite:
Datasmith (52)
5 Ruststalkers, Chordclaw (100)

Heavy Support:

Dunecrawler, Neutron and Double Stubber (151)
2 Kastelans, shooty (220)

Fast Attack:

Dragoon, Taser and Phosphor (74)
Dragoon, Taser and Phosphor (74)


Total, 1403 points.

Not played 8e, although I know I'm up against a Leviathan Dread armed for AV and a Plague Hulk. Plan is to get the Dragoons up and forward and try to tie down threats with the Attacker stratagems while the Datasmith and Dominus set up with the heavy dakka and firebase it up and the Vanguard head forward to screen from the inevitable cultist tide and hopefully shoot a PlagueBoi or two.

Also, do you guys want a batrep even if I forewarn you that my army is either badly painted or in the process of being stripped and repainted to a new scheme? It was my first army, and that does mean that most of it is black currently as I try to fix my mistakes.

The movie was awkwardly forcing other memes, but I saw it for what it really was - an acceptable date movie with enough dumb action to satisfy men.

Nope! If they share the same aesthetics and story they would still be super boring. It would be a nice option to have, but wouldn't change my opinion on the matter.

lets try again without arguing over CP

Whats the best 2000pt list you anons can make using a fucking relic-mastodon-super-heavy-assault-transport?

so we don't start another fight, lets just assume its competitive at a FLGS level and not a tourney list you are trying to make.

Also I really don't have a mastodon but I would like one very much. I just feel like its a fun puzzle to think about since its such a fucking huge and situational unit. plus you gotta imagine the look on your opponents face when you pull one out for just a 2000pt game.

Hmmm, that's a tough one.
Get some crabs with the iccarus array for sure, it will murder the units with FLY. I'd also suggest getting some marines to be able to use a libby with null zone, that will fuck up daemons day. Charge them in with some punchy beep boobs/infiltrators (for big stuff and hordes respectively) and watch as the tears start to flow.
SoS would also definitely be a good choice if you want to list tailor like that

Well, they get access to combi bolters and powerfists by default. A 10 man squad can get two grenade harnesses, they can take reaper autocanons, dual lightning claws, sergeant can take a plasma blaster and they don't get any movement penalties. They make a great up close brawler unit. I gear mine toward close range assault weaponry.

It is hard to explain in a way that isn't antagonizing, but the quickest way is to say that Space Marines are only really cool to boys and men. The GW managers and guys in the store love them and constantly try to show me things about them and I try my best to feign interest. I can at least see why they are cool though. Personally I have more interest in the Imperial Guard than Space Marines since I can relate more and I really love the girl from the Space Marine game.

My real interest is in the Inquisition. I love the idea of a powerful female Inquisitor that uses brains and some brawn in her duty all the while doing it in fancy garb. The fact that it's more than flying into battle and kicking ass is appealing. It's a shame that the Inquisition models are few and very dated and that they have sparse rules.

Indeed, but the three variants of SM Termies give better dedicated platforms in my opinion.
For example.

Indomitus can handle most tasks when dedicated to it.

Tartaros can is Indomitus but improved, except they lose access to Storm Shields. The ability to take combi bolters offers up a lot of tactical variability.

Cataphractii offers increased security at the cost of movement.

CSM Termies are strong, but I think they lack specific mastery

Space marines lack traditional ethnic features. Sort of like how people who guzzle performance enhancers all look like inhuman monsters.

The melanchromic organ in their body also changes their skin tone to match the radiation levels of the current warzone. All space marines can have skin as black as you want. The exceptions are that Salamanders have it permanently on max (black) and Raven Guard have it permanently on min (white)

Most of his complaints boil down to "its not fair because there are more imperials" and unsourced and thus unproven claims about how chaos is winning on the table top, something he just made up and for which is only source some analysis of a tournie in which chaos didn't actually win.

>>54772554
You can take 2 but you must also have 2 other units of the same role (I believe they are elite) so if you split your reivers into 2 5 mans you can take 2 leviathans, best loadout for an all primaris army would be grav bombards but be careful as fielding 2 of these boys with grav is entering cuntish levels of power so maybe grav+storm on both
>>
>>54772263
I heard they upped its attacks to 4 base and with scourge you're getting 3 more.

Should be a decent fire magnet for only 181 points, no? When it does hit something getting 4 attacks at strength 16 and 3 at strength 12 isn't too shabby.

I dunno, I'd like to see one used in a batrep that's not Dave from MWG and see it in action.

I'm strongly considering running two units of them.

Now what I would like to know is, are CSM troops worth it yet? I don't really like using cultists and I want to pick up a couple start collecting boxes so I'd have 20 of them.

Did you wreck those blueberry fucks!?

Supreme command detachment
215 points Commander Dante (base wargear)
192 points Libriarian Dreadnaught (furioso force halberd, furioso fist, storm bolter)
86 points sanguinary priest w/ jump pack (bolt pistol & chainsword)

176 points Sanguinary Guard (angelus boltgun & encarmine sword)

Auxiliary support detachment
326 points Stormraven Gunship (twin las cannons, twin multimeltas, 2 hurricane bolters, 2 hellstrike missile launchers)

the only models i have that am not fielding are
5x tac marines with bolters (65points)

8x scouts with sniper rifles & camo cloaks (144 points)

should i cut some of what i am fielding for these guys?

New player here, I need some help

I play tyranids and get the impression that you absolutely HAVE to go first.

You want to get turn1 charges off, but if the opponent begins he shoots your units to pieces.
You also can't hide your units because rhen they have to walk even longer distances.

So, what to do besides Genestealers+Trygon?
>>
>>54772930
Yeah and the only reason they avoided psykers was that it drew chaos to them. So maybe if chaos shit is all over the place he's like fuuuuck it.
>>
>>54772996
Its problem of all melee armies. You charge turn 1 or lose
>>
>>54772996
Mad dash for cover, chances are you'll live long enough and will be close enough for next turns charge. oh and venomthropes? those dudes give -1 hit penalties to your enemies dont they?

They look so simple, and then you realize they have literally twice the amount of cracks and edges to wash and highlight since it has both an upper plating and an inner plating.

Not the anon, but he's right. Don't paint pure white. Paint an off white or a very light grey so you can highlight it to give it depth, otherwise it looks like trash.

He's saying you should base with a light grey and highlight white. It's easier on the eyes and looks better.

I sincerely doubt it, since literally the ONLY thing he is willing to cooperate with other people to stop is Chaos, and Crone Worlds are often saturated with Chaos energies corrupted Eldar.

In the Dark City, one of the only universal laws that virtually every Archon obeys is "No Psychic bullshit." Vect goes out of his way to make horrific examples of those who disobey this rule.

Either a SC! Tau next, or Pathfinders probably. Eventual plan is Breachers, Fire Warriors, Pathfinders, Sniper drones. Probably some stealth suits because I like how they look. I pretty much like the army because I find the drones/stealthsuits cute, so I'm trying for a more infantry/drone heavy force and less huge battlesuits. Honestly I think doing the little sept/cadre markings has been one of my favorite parts so far.
>>
>>54773646

>>

Well that would be because, being human, they are always willingly walking into conflicts that some Space Marines would double take at. Mordians are hardcore.
>>
what's the consensus on the removal of blast templates? the arguments over which units counted as being hit was definately a problem, but it always felt good being able to lay down that big death circle.

additionally, does it now not matter if squads are closer together/further apart?

Crusaders, DCA and arcos are hilariously good.
>>
>>54773772
You'll need at least 2-3 neutron onagers to keep enemy tanks in the ground.
>>
>>54773587

Smurfs wouldn't be nearly as bad if they had more of their own element to add to the Space Marines. I mean, every Chapter seems to be a deviation off the baseline, but the baseline could just be an amalgamation of the whole. Well, they did write the book on it, but with Guilliman back and outwardly saying the Codex is more of a guideline, as well as actively rewriting and adding elements of it, it's possible other Chapters might write books of their own for their own successors to follow.

Also, possibly these books would be spread around of piecemealed around to other Chapters that are looking for tactical knowledge from the greats like Guilliman, and develop their own techniques and specialist stratagems for fighting war in the space future.
>>
>>54773782
They're like, ideal one-unit allies too, because of the way acts of faith work.
>>
>>54773739

well just using a number of shots is way easier, and you still get about the number of hits you could get after scatter. but what about the squad distance thing?
>>
>>54773776
Honestly I feel like hellforged should be excessively ornate and daemonic looking not bland like the iron warriors one they showed in the article...

I think so long as your opponent is made aware before the game that they're hellforged it should be fine unless they're super autism. To be safe make sure the hellforged ones look different than regular if using both in one list.

To be honest I never found them worth the extra cost tho, in the half dozen game I've run them
>>
>>54773646
SC Tau box and an Optimized Pathfinder box would be perfect
>>
>>54773815
>Iron Warriors one
That wasn't hellforged, that was supposed to be a heresy era deimos with 0 corruption, they just picked the picture of a normal deimos off the fw website because there are no pictures of hellforged models.

Really? I was thinking the magna melta looked kinda fun to play around with and the potential to just say "fuck it" and charge some infantry once i get low.
>>
Does GW's website routinely just fuck up and models are suddenly missing? Not out of stock, they are just gone.
>>
>>54773731
There's a good chance of losing the templates in your garage.
>>
>>54773800
Definitely. I use a squad of 10 and Celestine. That way she gets her own act of faith plus the Crusaders get theirs. That plus an Eversor and 4 Bullgryn in a Valkyrie and there are multiple turn 1 charges.
>>
>>54773814
D6 hits completely fucked the flamer, in all its iterations. No idea about the second bit, not even sure what you mean.
>>
Any word on what the next book is after death guard? Or well two books, since death guard is getting models, the release after that should be a double book drop with no models.
>>
>>54773870

in the older editions, you'd want to spread out individual models in a squad away from each other so a blast could hit as few as possible. i'm just wondering if that even matters now
>>
>>54773902
Oh. Well obviously not. There's no templates and the controlling player allocates the wounds.

>>54773870
Flamer templates were mostly noob-stompers, smart players spread their models out (or fielded a small number of few model units) in such a way that you had to be happy about more than 2 flamer hits.
The bigger issue is that you can no longer deep strike and flame, and to a lesser extend that flamers do not ignore cover.

On the other hand it is way easier to use flamers because you no longer have to carefully position the flame-wielding model and friendly models in such a way that you can get the optimum amount of hits, because you weren't allowed to hit your own troops. And the flamer not being able to kill anything that was outside the range of the flamer template also sucked.

It would, but sadly the Optimized Pathfinder box is no longer available. Still, SC is a good deal and that'll give me plenty to work on for now. I just wish I'd ordered some of the sniper drones a couple of days ago when I was planning this, cause now they're out of stock again.
>>
>>54773698

As I've suspected, the legion trait is really overhyped and mostly mediocre, but we're not allowed to say that because it's the greatest thing to have ever blessed the rules of the game ever. I do like the warlord trait and claws, though.
