great video! i love the camera stops that have a written overview of whats still alive. I basically play the same space marine setup, except i dont use any tanks, just dreadnaughts; my scouts(with telion) ride a land speeder storm(takes out almost any commander by 2nd turn;)) I also use Vlukan as 1 HQ and K-Khan(on Moondrakken). I need a few bikes, and maybe another 5 terminators...Im wondeing if you have any other ideas for a "well rounded/flexible" SM army?
Telion replaces the Sergeant in a scout unit, so he's not far off the 70 point mark once you add the cost of the replaced Sergeant, so you were about right after all :)
Great batrep guys, I really enjoy watching them :D
Fleet on Foot rule was changed on the last codex. Now every infantry have the "Run" rule instead. Fleet on Foot just makes you able to charge after running
I think everyone who makes batreps and posts on youtube, should make them in this manner with everything included, without skipping parts and just showing the end of the turn. gets very annoying. BTP Batreps = Win
Agreed. It's a lot more interesting and involved if the rolls and strats and comments of the players are included within the video, makes for a better watch.
Acute senses means in night fighting rules u can role again if u want eg: roll a 2 and a 3 so 5 time by 3= 15" and u can chose to roll again if u want and keep new result. Hope this helps gd vid as well
I very much beg to differ. I've played Renn a lot. He may take greater care than I in making his army, but he also pays attention, reads his book more carefully, and most importantly thinks ahead while playing.
well then Shawn , i think we both know which you need to improve on :) Oh ! i forgot to menion i just started my own Space Marine Chapter , The Knights Of The Blazing Sun, basically a red base colour and a very heavy highlight of Blazing Orange and Then Blazing orange mixed with Sunburst yellow, Then Black being the trim colours. Ill hopefully post some pics up soon as a video response :)
yay ultramarines! you guys forgot to do the deep strike test. When I was having a battle w/ my friend I did the deep strike test for my assault marines and got a 1 which means they all died so I lost because I was counting on them doing some damage to his damn tact. squad and dreadnought who were sniping all my guys.
a friend of mine has been collecting SM for a month and hes already got a special characater that looks like the marine coverd in gold and stuff from the last codex can somone tell me who he is?
ultramarines are so OP u think telion is bad look at captain cato sicarius all six caracters are OP and under pointed plus there not even a real founding chapter gw had to write them in as one later, death to the vanillamarines, good bat rep and i like that u did iyanden for eldar paint scheme, don't see that too much anymore
WOOT GO SEARGENT! the best thing that ever happened to me in a battle was i had one space marine with bazooka, and cassius in combat with an eldar fire prisim, cassius kept getting crew shaken(so it can't shoot) and it was immobilised. so then finally i got it a weapon destroyed 2 turns in a row, then it died :). I barely won ;)
There's this weird gap in 40k between things that are good against Marines and things that are good against everything else. The Whirlwind is pretty much in the latter category. If I'm up against guard/Eldar/Orks/etc, then I'm always going to take it but if it's Marines then it's not really that great.
Telion is better than the Vindicare assassin. But I hope you can pull this one off, Shawn. Go Craftworld Iyaden!
whirlwind is great unless your fighting guys with good armour (such as space marines and chaos) then its almost totally useless because sure you'll hit tons and wound on threes but they will probably just save.
The only real defiance of this is that if the whirlwind can hide somewhere far away on a large board then they can't be damaged because they can shoot without line of sight (I think).
i bring the axe, you bring the face.

oh and yes, if you shoot at something, and anythings in the way, like a unit, or low lying terrain, they incur a cover save
40kchaoslord 3 years ago
cover save-unit, friend or enemy, 4 + save.
5th ed. rulebook, page 21
cover saves are not affected by a weapon's AP value, also page 21

They get cover saves when you shoot through friend or foe, check page 21 under "Intervening models".
Also, check "Night vision/Acute senses" on page 75. It makes you more likely to see an enemy during Night Fighting.
Nice batrep by the way. :)
