Brother Raul Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Since GW is treating all space marine chapters as the same faction which chapters do you think compliment us best? What experiences do you have with them? Obviously I banged on about rhe darkshroud when the new C:SM & C:DA were released but recently a Imperial fist, more specfically sentinels of tera, has been pre occupying my thoughts. A BSF supported by TL rapid fire shooting be mad I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadDice0809 Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 Dark Angels. Specifically Ravenwing. Twin linked plasma talons destroy most of (WRAITHKNIGHT ARRRGGHH!!!!! ) tough Monstrous Creatures we can't melee to death, and the dark shroud preventing overwatch protects us on the way in. They are also fast enough to advance with our jumpers and continue to provide fire support. However any vanilla chapter spamming grav can accomplish the same thing. And frankly be even more effective. I'm just assuming you want Blood Angels to be the base of a proposed army, and not the side show (oh look Death Company! Nice! The black jump backs look awesome next to all the min OS tact squads and Grav Centurions...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainHelion Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 I'm building a small Brazen Claws (Iron Hands 2nd founding) force on the side, but that's less about what's complimenting, and more about loving the chapter, and wanting to use the Clan Raukaan relics...

Charlo Posted August 7, 2015 Share Posted August 7, 2015 My force is going to be DC, Dreads and Pods accompanied by Ravenwing (but made into a BA style) for the points cost thier bikes are just so great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Raul Posted August 8, 2015 Author Share Posted August 8, 2015 Yeah ravenwing seem so good. Originally got into W40K with a SW & BA list in mind, still think it can work too. TWC giving your DC a cover save? Forget priceless. Cheese tastic. Gravstar is so well documented I wont go into it. White scars bikes and tactics has a lot of merit, will be worth investigating. Finally there is DA. Maybe podding in their tacs as speed bumps and cover saves? Could work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sockwithaticket Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 I don't play anymore but I'd be intrigued by the prospect of some Raptors with Lias Issodon. Rending bolters and bolt pistols if they don't move, army wide Scout and first turn Stealth. Then, Issodon gives you the chance to cripple a unit before the game starts with Infiltrate, Isolate, Destroy. Perhaps the most useful thing, though, is his reserves manipulation; you get to re-roll and the enemy get -1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Raul Posted August 8, 2015 Author Share Posted August 8, 2015 Yeah I've tried to steer clear of the FW chapters, I am one of those guys. Raptors sound outstanding. Red scorpions also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother_Angelus Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 Crimson Fists for mucho dakka and White Scars for relentless grav, both give access to marine toys. But mostly cause the chapters are cool, and enjoy stomping greenskins as much as we do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jolemai Posted August 8, 2015 Share Posted August 8, 2015 A White Scar Librarium Conclave has its uses in our jump/bike builds as each Librarian will confer Hit and Run onto the squad they are attached to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
