Helias_Tancred Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Is the Contemptor Dreadnought, with multi-melta, or kheres assault cannon arm + dreadnought combat weapon still legit for marines in 10th? I checked what has gone to legends, and it seems the relic contemptor and the minotaurs one both went to Legends, but I didn't see anything for a normal contemptor dreadnought with the mentioned loadout? I've got a magnetized Dark Angel Legion Contemptor and I'm wondering if I can still run him in 10th under competitive play (with that specific loadout choice of course)? Thanks.

Solution Mr. Oddity Posted August 7, 2023 Solution Share Posted August 7, 2023 Currently, yes. The standard Contemptor Dreadnought is on page 117 of the Space Marines index. It honestly makes a good midline distraction unit, as even if the opponent puts dedicated anti-tank into it the 2+chance it has to stand back up on death makes it into a major resource sink.

Helias_Tancred Posted August 7, 2023 Author Share Posted August 7, 2023 Yeah I was reading that. I will probably go with the multi-melta more times than not. But my model is magnetized so when I get ahold of the right arms, they're all getting magnetized ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/379910-contemptor-dreadnought-in-10th/#findComment-5979520 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Mittens Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Even if it's in legends, in normal games folks will be ok playing it, I assume? The BAC one was in.

Tacitus Posted August 12, 2023 Share Posted August 12, 2023 People you know maybe, but strangers much less likely - Legends has a built in "not balanced for fair (tournament) games" context.

Spyros Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 (edited) If I 'm not mistaken, the dreadnought sent to legends is the Relic Contemptor, the Forgeworld chassis that also had better rules in 9th. The plain Contemptor that is in the Index Cards should still be valid.

Cpt_Reaper Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 Considering the BaC Contemptor is no longer sold, I think it's safe to say that it will not be in the 10th codex and all version of the Contemptor, relic or otherwise, are going to Legends.

Chaplain Augustus Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 The regular contemptor is not on the GW published list of units going to legends. That being said they do keep removing all the things I like soooo... the darkness of the future seems grim indeed.

Paladin777 Posted August 14, 2023 Share Posted August 14, 2023 (edited) I would suggest to anyone who hasn't already purchased one, hold off until the codex drops.
