djkest Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Wondering if anyone can tell me what is in the CSM terminator box? I'm guessing you get this: 1 powerfist 1 chainfist 1 combi-melta 1 pair lightning claws 1 reaper autocannon 1 heavy flamer Would I be right? A lot of that is stuff that comes w/ the terminator lord. Kind of sux if you want to make a squad of say, all powerfist dudes. Thanks for the info. Oh, just found this.... on the GW website... ncludes options for a Chaos Champion, reaper autocannon, heavy flamer, combi-weapons; power fists and chainfists. I guess it's not explicit on quantities, but it does give you an idea. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/151877-chaos-terminators/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

djkest Posted November 11, 2008 Author Share Posted November 11, 2008 Thanks! Looks like 2 powerfists, 1 chainfist, 1 reaper, 1 heavy flamer, 1 combi weapon, and 4 weapons that could kind of be combi weapons also. Dang, now that I see it: 50$ is a lot for 1 large sprue. You get 3x the amount of stuff in a LR box for the same price, or 2x as much in a rhino box for $30... oh well. I should remember, this hobby is for the elite rich people! Can't make it cheap for the masses. :) Edit- it would be neat if we had pictures of all the plastic squad sprues. I'll take a picture of a CSM box when I buy another one.

Cornelias Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 1 combi-melta, 1 combi-flamer, 3 combi-bolters :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/151877-chaos-terminators/#findComment-1768661 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought two and am swimming in powerfists. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/151877-chaos-terminators/#findComment-1768976 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phosis Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I bought two and am swimming in powerfists. I'd rather be buried alive than swim in powerfists. Imagining that many powerfists reminds me of when my lady said to me one day "Man, you make me want to b***h slap you with a lightning claw." It was the happiest and scariest day of my life. =D yes, that box o' terms is expensive but wow do I love looking at that picture. I get so many ideas from the chaos termy box.

I bought two and am swimming in powerfists. Hey thanks for the tip. Guess what I'm going to buy, lol... I'll probably take the 15 termies and make a huge variety, so I can field a CC squad, a shooty squad, or whatever the heck I want. But seriously, there is only the 1 set of lightning claws in the doombringer box, right? Oooh... 15 terminators... that is sexy. Lets see: Termy box $50 Termy box $50 Termy box $50 Termy lord $20 =$170 or Annihilation box: $90.. easy choice, huh? Kinda off topic, but has anyone ever fielded just plain "naked terminators", and how do they do? And also, what the heck is a "combi bolter" ? Is that a combination of a TL bolter and a CCW? If so, that would be hot. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/151877-chaos-terminators/#findComment-1770305 Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll find that one or two power/chain fists are more than enough and your "naked" termies will be the bread and butter of your squad. Combi-weapons are one shot special weapons that replace the second bolter in the twin linked bolters. Thus for 5 points you can trade twin linked shots on one termie for a one round Melta shot - or flamer - or plasma. Meltas are particularly effective as now when you pop a tank in shooting, you can target the contents in assault if it pops. And yes - Doombringer sadly only comes with one set of lightning claws.

BoonKin Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I guess that lightning claw is actually for the chaos lord himself while the regular chosen only gets to use power weapons and fists. The Annihilation box really sounds like a good buy. I will get one of those when I have made up my mind ;) EDIT: missed a few words sorry Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/151877-chaos-terminators/#findComment-1770493 Share on other sites More sharing options...
djkest Posted November 13, 2008 Author Share Posted November 13, 2008 even if you didn't want 15 termies, you could sell the rest on e-bay and still have a really good deal. Right now 5 terminators (sprue only) are going for like $35. I'm still wondering, I knew what combi-meltas/ combi-flamers/ combi-plasma is, but what is a combi-bolter? A bolter and a bolter?

AbyssKnight Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 A combi-bolter is effectively a Twin Linked Bolter. Basically two bolters stuck together. The Imperial Stormbolter is basically a more advanced version of it.

djkest Posted November 14, 2008 Author Share Posted November 14, 2008 More advanced in some ways, but our TL bolter is actually better under 12". Storm bolter is assault 2, so they get 2 shots. We would get 2 shots with re-rolls under 12"... which is actually better. Over 12", they get 2 shots, we get 1 with a reroll. Not too bad. But thanks for clarifying that. I still wish we had a bolter/ CCW combo, that would be nice. :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/151877-chaos-terminators/#findComment-1771755 Share on other sites More sharing options...
