ServoBadger Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 The banner in the Terminator Assault Squad box is, IMO, really, really nice. But to drop a Storm Shield for it? ...I dunno. Will you be giving your Hammernators the banner? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300914-that-banner/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother dean Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Check local (codex) listings but "Standard Bearers are such accomplished individuals that they can fight normally and handle the banner as well..." You dont give up items to add a banner.http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w20/fred40k2002/Deathwing/decius105.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300914-that-banner/#findComment-3898840 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that quote of yours probably came from the WHFB rulebook, where standard bearers do indeed never give up their wargear, for that exact reason. That said, I see little-to-no reason to take that banner, unfortunately :/ I can *justify* why someone would take it, but I wouldn't.

Brother dean Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Our banner is also modeled as a back banner. The quote wording comes from the command squad fluff I believe...

t4play Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Codex says give up 1 claw or SShield Not happens on mine but is a nice banner Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300914-that-banner/#findComment-3898906 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PowerKlaw Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 I plan on making my banner bearer use lightning claws...he only loses 1 attack which he gets back from the banner :) worth it for a big enough squad Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/300914-that-banner/#findComment-3898941 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raktra Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Standard Company banner isn't worth it. Boost to morale, woop-de-doo, we're Marines. The Archangels' Relic? Be still my beating heart.

Deschenus Maximus Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 5 pts isn't too bad really. And if I were to take it, I'd give it to a LC termie. No point paying 5 pts to lose your storm shield when you get the banner.

Raktra Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Forgot that it was that cheap. Mind for me, I'm one of those unfortunates that somehow ends up using every point on necessities before funtimes. My Legion army weeps at me for it.
