“unless you’re an idiot” is in the 6th edition book as a special rule

Another great vid on the DA guys dont totally agree with everything in it (again) but i realise that’s because you’re all tourney minded players and Im not really.

What’s your thoughts on the chapter relics armory section?
I kinda like a few of the things in but you never really talked about it. Is that because you’d never use it or did you just never really get round to it?

a command squad with a libby and power field generator in a land raider is awesome. surround it by Rzrbacks with 10 man tac squads walking behind it as cover gives everything a 4+ invul and gives all the marine the salvo weapons, measuring from the hull of the Land Raider. not once during my last tourney was the banner in harms way, with the exception of the scarabs that the land raider got hit by.

Arcanthias and Coxey292 have pretty much said it all in regards to the banners.

Shame on you Darrel for not smelling this obvious cheese from a mile away 🙂

also, boys, bikes are relentless so can always shoot 4 shots bike per turn at 24 inches with 12 inches of movement

A librarian in a LR is a waste. He cannot use his blessings inside. There are better ways for the power field trick.

Hey guys, great video! I’m new to the site but I’ve really enjoyed pretty much every vid I’ve seen so far, so keep it up! A couple mentions: 1. The sacred standards are NOT one per army, only the chapter banner and ravenwing/deathwing banners are. 2. The Ravenwing (& Deathwing – in the Errata) company champions are one per army. The book says: “One Ravenwing black knight IN THE ARMY may be upgraded to the Ravenwing Champion replacing…” NOTE: the Deathwing command squad entry was worded differently implying that the model is from the command squad itself – changed in… Read more »

I hear the blade of caliban sucks; something to do with being basically a relic blade that’s unwieldy, I think. GW still haven’t sent me my codex and I’ve had it ordered for almost three weeks now but that’s what I’ve heard from other places. Also you can stack up a fair amount of crap with the salvo banner. 25 marines behind an aegis defense line with two librarians dishing out rerolls and then chuck in a power field generator and of course the apothecary for the command squad then you can get quite a tough gunline. The thing I… Read more »

the hqs are pretty nice from the sound of it… their lv2 librarian is 50 points cheaper than mine :L still dont understand your belief that librarians are useless in combat but ah well… and you can take a storm shield with a two handed weapon its in the space marine faq with their relic blades!

Again, your reviewing a codex, and getting several rules wrong.. 1st one i can think of: Company Masters can’t take Bikes 2nd one: You rip on the Company Masters, but the special wargear/relics etc, are quite Amazing. 3rd: The relic Shroud of Heros dose not give Shroud to the unit, just himself and only if not in a unit (which obviously means just himself) 4th: Again, this one just shows your lack of perfesionalizm. A standard rule in the rule book Salvo. You speak of this new banner we have “Standard of Devistation” that turns our bolters into Salvo 2/4.… Read more »

A Hurricane Bolter (as per the description in the DA codex) “consists of 3 twin linked Bolters firing as one weapon”. Bolters are affected by the Salvo banner. Use Deathwing command squad with that banner in the crusader and flank it with 2 Ravenwing attack squadrons (run the attack bikes within the 3″ bubble of the raider also). That gives them a Jink save naturally as they ride along side (throw in a Darkshoud behind the raider for stealth) and those bikers relentless Bolters will fire 24/turn from 6 bikes. You can flank either side with a squadron. Add 4… Read more »

I know this is old but the techmarines are slightly changing now, you should compare the ‘servo arm’ and ‘bolster defences’ rules to the other books

Iam getting the Deathwing command Squad and i wanted to ask if i can make an apothecary with th/ss ?
