techmarine Azuris

Recommended Posts

Hi im a veteran ork player, i have over 2500points :) and have decided to try something new! I want to start a fluffy marine army, based around a techmarine and his quest to look for old relics etc

 

Any tips on using Master of the Forge? What units compliment him (if any) Also i wondered if i could take guardsmen as counts as scouts as in fluff techmarines higher, their own guardsman like units? I have a tactical squad and a dread atm

 

Any help is appreciated

 

Thanks Dom

This isn't really the right place for...any...of these questions really. Here there be dragons. And fluff. Probably should have emphasized the fluff. You need to head here:

Tactica Astartes: The What to Fight the Whom.

OR

Army List Reviews.

 

These guys will be much more helpful on this topic. We just deal with the creation, management, explanation, and workings of DIY Chapters both Loyal and Traitor, as well as fleshing out Canon Chapters that GW has left alone. We don't really handle the whole tabletop section here.

Thanks for your repply, this was about creating a new chapter (well branch), and wondered whether the short fluff i stated would work, sorry this was my first post here so didnt know tactics werent here too, Would u be able to use counts as scouts using guardsmen models to represent the mechanicus regiments?

Just popped by, I thought I would welcome you to the B&C!

 

And a few things;

 

1.)

as in fluff techmarines higher, their own guardsman like units

Do you mean Techpriests? These guys are different people - they are part of the Adeptus Mechanicus and not really related to Techmarines at all. I don't remember Techmarines doing anything like this.

 

2.)

creating a new chapter (well branch),

I don't think there would be a "branch" of a Chapter that went around looking for relics; there is only a single instance of something like this happening - the Salamanders have a position called "Forgefather" who is a Captain who gave up his command to look for the relics that their Primarch left behind.

 

3.)

Would u be able to use counts as scouts using guardsmen models to represent the mechanicus regiments?

From a rules perspective, that is possible, but I wouldn't say so from a fluffy point of view unless they happened to be Stormtroopers.
