Sword Brother Adelard Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Before anyone frets too much. The Crusader Squad is on the datasheet list. It's just with our special characters, rather than with the troop options. Curiously, there doesn't appear to be any restriction on the make up of the squad, i.e. the split between Neophytes and Initiates. You just have to take models armed with either boltguns or close combat weapons in multiples of 5. Also, special weapons don't seem to be a thing in Apoc. Heavy weapons only.

Othniel's Blade Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 Reads to me like bolters and close combat weapons, not either/or. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356774-apocalyptic-black-templars/#findComment-5336750 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword Brother Adelard Posted June 24, 2019 Author Share Posted June 24, 2019 Quite. Any model in the same squad can be armed with either a boltgun or bolt pistol and CCW. So mixed weaponry is cool Are we disagreeing here? I'm confused.

Smirnov Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 There are no bolt pistols in Apocalypse so apocalyptic crusaders are equiped with bolters and CCW. I think it's just a matter of streamlining profiles where basic weapon entries are more in line of abilities rather then wargear Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356774-apocalyptic-black-templars/#findComment-5336947 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword Brother Adelard Posted June 25, 2019 Author Share Posted June 25, 2019 Ah! cool I get it now. So just any model bar a heavy weapon marine can go in the amorphous crusader squad. (I'm planning to play special weapons as 'counts as' bolters, seeing as they don't exist.

Marshal Vespasian Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Now if lrcs turn out excellent I will have to build some more melee crusaders Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356774-apocalyptic-black-templars/#findComment-5337255 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sword Brother Adelard Posted June 25, 2019 Author Share Posted June 25, 2019 The question will be whether it's better to min or max, unlike Tactical squads we can take a heavy per 5 men, they can only take one per 10. So do we take four 5s or one 20? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356774-apocalyptic-black-templars/#findComment-5337258 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Arthur Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Anyone check out Helbrecht’s buff? +1 to wound rolls for Templar units in close combat. It looks pretty good and Assault terminators are looking pretty survivable.

SWORD BROTHER RYAN Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 I'm liking everything I'm seeing on Apoc so far, and personally can't wait to field the ENTIRE force I own in a single game that won't take days to complete!
