Zustiur Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 (edited) I think deep strike is very valuable, but it's easy to be over confident with it. Too often we go for the 9" deploy, even though there's no requirement to do so. Tactical terminators should deep strike into ruins, this negating any AP 1 weapons that might target then. Thanks to bolter discipline, we don't even need to be within 12 anymore. Edited September 8, 2019 by Zustiur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandragola Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 It seems to me that terminators do provide something that other units don’t. You get a unit that can deep strike in which is pretty capable at both shooting and close combat. Alternative options are better than terminators at one or other of these, but not both. Reivers can hold ground, inceptors have a lot of shooting and smash captains can break stuff. Terminators can do all of these things reasonably well without costing all that much. domsto and Kanis 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Idaho Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 Fury of the 1st works very well. Used it today and made a massive difference. BLACK BLΠFLY 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only Dark Angel termies can pack a plasma cannon Although looking at it, is it actually better to chainfists on Cataphractii Terminators? Shouldn't the Powerfist average higher amounts of damage?

BLACK BLŒ FLY Posted September 8, 2019 Share Posted September 8, 2019 I’ve decided to go with Catapratchii Terminators since the sergeant gets a power fist. Dracos 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zero88 Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Cataphractii with Chainfists all around are a good choice. Way more reliable than Powerfists and it looks cool. The bolter shots are just a plus BLACK BLΠFLY and domsto 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bolter shots are just a plus Agreed. I think chainfists look like a very good option now they're only 2 points more than power fists. The -4 ap and consistent damage are both well worth the extra cost. I'd probably pay 10 points just to avoid the hassle of rolling D3s all the time.

Link2edition Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 I have a lot of terminators so I want an excuse to get them back on the table. Made a bit of a fun list here to try it out: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/358394-2000-points-marshals-houshold-for-fun/Ya'll have been talking about deepstrike a lot so I am going to throw this in. Black Templar reroll one or both of the dice when charging, if memory serves this means they make deepstrike charges 60%ish of the time. They also ignore mortal wounds on a 5+ making TH/SS termies that much more survivable.Deepstriking a bunch of Templar onto the board could be a fun time (and a fluffy one too) SickSix 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
