MrZombie Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Hey guys. Just one quick question. Can you equip a reclusiarch with terminator armour and a powerfist next to the stock rosarius? Or are you stuck with just the maul if you equip termi armour? Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DominicJ Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Stuck with the mace forever Its a decent weapon, better than the sword against everything but 1w 3+ save models. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkkinite Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 DominicJ is correct. A bit off-topic, is buying a powerfist for a reclusiarch a huge waste of points? As much as i know power mace are quite good in itself(and often over looked), is it not worth spending 15 pts for a x2 str AP 2 attack on a reclusiarch?

knife&fork Posted October 12, 2012 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Its a decent weapon, better than the sword against everything but 1w 3+ save models. So the only weak point of the mace is about 90% of all infantry in the game :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHarrower Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 I think 15 points for a power first is a steal. I always take one then I can choose mace or fist depending on what I'm facing. In the shooting phase, I just have him throw grenades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DominicJ Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 K&F True, but my reclusiarch isnt there to kill MEQs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knife&fork Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 K&FTrue, but my reclusiarch isnt there to kill MEQs Then what do you expect him to do? T4 and non EW characters are not going to do a number on anything tougher like terminators, walkers or MCs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DominicJ Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 He provides rerolls, and has a crack at none S8 ICs He did manage to wound a necron god thingy a few times. People get really hung on AP3. Considering most ICs will now be wandering around in +2 armour, or will have a +4inv Its not a giant issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demoulius Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Considering chaplain are there for their rerolls primarily, and secondly to bring killing power.... Its work able. Lacking AP3 is somewhat a waste, but not having it doesent make him useless either! Wounding most MEQ's on 2's means more wounding hits which should see armour saves failed itself :woot: Still a very fluffy HQ option for us :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinful eyes Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 15 points for a power fist is not bad at all. I will be bringing it on my Reclusiarch every single time once i get the mini (which, by the way, is awesome). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drunken Angel Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 I think 15 points for a power first is a steal. I always take one then I can choose mace or fist depending on what I'm facing. In the shooting phase, I just have him throw grenades. This option above all else, with allies and all sorts of AV4 units turning up ( chaos demons come to mind here) I am thinking the mace has its place. Chaplains that can take a fist or mace are pretty useful. Lemartes is a shoo in here with his higher initiative. It seems that AV4 will become a little more common now. Still the chaplain competes with a libby and divination lore. Does anyone run a chaplain outside of death company anymore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAMOB Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 I occasionally run my TA reclusiarch with one of my 2 termi squads, either my TAC or TAS marines. He is extremely helpful on the charge for TH/SS marines, and his extra shots plus rerolls help the TAC marines alot. I've never run one w/ a PF before though...

Arkkinite Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 PLANNING TO: Have a reclusiarch leading my main assualt force, while having a JP libby leading the secondary assault force as back-up support. I still have DC, be seeing as my pod-DC is a distraction suicidal unit... i opt to not put my reclu. there, even if the benefits could be big...
