Mutt-Man! Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Putting together my stash of marines I ordered from Ebay I began to think. What appeals to me, the genosidal Black templars, or a DiY chapter? I had promised myself I wouldnt start painting them until the Crusader codex came out, since I have plenty of armies to work on between now and then. I was thinking along the lines of this or BT. Die Standing Have faith in the Ainchients (Forgot the propper wording, bro has my SM codex) Looking over another topic I was reminded of the idea. Alot of dreadnoughts, landspeeders and terminators with assault cannons, I just love those things. Dreads as HS will beef the idea. Here is everything from off the top of my head without the aid of the codex. Troops: 8-10-size Scouts with Sniper Rifles, missile launcher. Troops: 5-size tactical in razorback(TWHB or TWLL) with multi-melta and plasma gun Elites: 5-size termi unit with 2 assault cannons Elites: 5-size LC assault termies Fast Attack: Land Speeders with Heavybolter and Assault Cannons, 6-9 of them Fast Attack: Assault Marines with lightening claw searg, 10-20 of them Heavy Support: Dread with Assault Cannon The army centered around clever shooting, mostly 24" ranged firefighting with transports/teleport/moveandfire type of combat. Infiltrating scouts with rifles and ML reminds me of some modern day recon soldiers and had to have them. OR Black Templars Full units designed for assault, 3-4 units of Black Templars, full of Neophytes and initiates. dreadnoughts terminators A Land raider crusader land speeders assault marines I have alot of armies, and this will be my first army loyal to the emperor, or anything portraying 'good' in any way. The name for the DiY chapter will be Blood Dawn Chapter (No relations to the Blood Angels) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/77794-thinking-but-yet-im-not/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Librarian- Melechor Posted June 22, 2005 Share Posted June 22, 2005 Its really up to you to decide, both of those lists are cool, but i like your first list better, something dashing and neat about it.

Mutt-Man! Posted June 23, 2005 Author Share Posted June 23, 2005 Thanks, but the decision and the rumoured of the Crusader codex comming made me wait. As much as I hate it I wont go through stripping paint and chopping up hours of work just to satisfy my way of playing. I figure I'll just wait, although that first list was cool, made some small changes to it, but still in a pile of ideas, only until I actualy have the codexies in my hands will I make the decision. grr :blush: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/77794-thinking-but-yet-im-not/#findComment-896423 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Librarian- Melechor Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 Sadly i'm not sure of a release date for that codex, so do you have any other armies you could use?

Librarian- Melechor Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 Sounds good, just play/model/paint your other armies until the BT codex comes out, then decide.
