How do you use speed bumps?

[Brother Valerius]

Twenty three posts and only one mention of Combat Tactics so far ?

 

No need for speed bumps. Choose to fail the Morale test if your loosing cc in your opponents assault phase, and shoot them to bits in your turn.

 

Space Marines are for the most part a shooty army, drop all the CC upgrades and max out the guns to capitalise on Combat Tactics

 

And when you get wiped out in one assault phase? Or how about when you fail your initiative test (yeah, you don't get killed in the sweeping advance, but you still get stuck in assault for another turn)?

 

Seems to me that keeping your important shooty elements out of assault in the first place is the best tactic. Combat tactics is a nice backup plan.
