oh yea and cant sweep in term armor :P

[RetributionAngel]

lightning claws is the worst choice

either stormbolter PF or TH SS for all the termis

with str 8 you can hurt vehicles and high T units + they are "instant death" to most enemys

and on avarage you only caus 2 wounds less with the whole squad compared to claws

[ExillDan]

this is my second terminator squad, i have one with SB's PF's that i use to kill vehicles and MC's . Claws on the charge with a chaplain reroll hits and reroll wounds with the claws at init 4, this squad is infantry killer :)

[RetributionAngel]

yeah its infan killer

but there is so much better / cheaper stuff to kill week-infantry...

they only caus 12-11 wounds on avarage

with 15 orks plus nob they can get wiped easy

[ExillDan]

15 boyz at init 2 take 11 power wep wounds at init 4 there is only 4 orks left, id allocate PW wounds from the nob to the SS 3+ and the Claws take 2+ armor on normal attacks -11 to your LD test, fail and i make sweeping advance. cant sway me from claws :P my ork opponent normaly runs mobs of 30 with mek boy that i thin with Hbolters and Whirlwind fire, i will probly pit this squad against his warboss with nob squad guard "fingers crossed" :)

[RetributionAngel]

my point is just that lightningclaw termis do to lil compared to the cost... and you will prob have to give em a landraider + chap to make em somehow effectiv.... i rather spend the points on 2 sm squads or some cheap speeder squads if i want anti infantry

also stormbolter termis can do better against inf. caus they can shoot before they assault

i used to run 20 lightningclaw termis & sold them...caus they never made up their points -.-

[ExillDan]

hehe yea it can go down a few different ways :P i still think tho in the right situation the claws at init 4 are better than PF's at init 1 if you dont need the strength. i normally play against orks eldar or chaos SM so ill have a few places to test them, and yea i was gona run them in a LR with chap :)

Hi there

Amazing Paint Job, congratulations.

Concerning the number of attacks. I don't think the sergeant gets an extra attack in a Terminator Squad (Space Marines Codex). Am I wrong?

Cheers

dude u are an amazing painter! i just started and compared 2 u im awfull...

[RetributionAngel]

well if you have 1 or 2 TH SS in the squad you wont make as many wounds before the orks get to go.... so there will be around 10 boys left + boss

so your looking at 30 A he will land about 10 wounds so 2-3 termis go down... and the PClaw will take down another 1 or 2

and he has a chance of makeing his LD with bosspole... if not he asaults with another squad of boys ^^
