Help me choose! Well friends, the Black Saints are beginning to be made. Adonis is actually in, but due to an un-forseen bill, i'll have to wait a bit to pick him up. The Black Saints will be a painfully slow process, as each single marine in over 120 will be personalized, etc..
These boys will be my pride and joy, and Wolfpack has inspired me to make a full Great Company out of them. In light of this, I will need an army more structured for play, etc.. So it comes down to three choices, and I want you who know me best to suggest them (yes, I am an SM player, and CSM player, and will always be so. I love the fluff.).
Space Wolves - The tied most likely choice. They fit my style of play well so far given what I know of them, though some areas of their Codex I am foggy on (HQ, grey hunters required per other units, etc.. These are the things the GW army builder tells me I need.). Blood Angels - The Black Saints parent chapter, and another favorite. I am interested in them based on their old codex, and as soon as I peak at the new one, I will choose. If anyone has SEEN it (i know it should be out by now, right?), please let me know your opinion. Iron Hands - Least likely for two reasons: I will want to go conversion crazy on them (and don't have the cash to do so), and they are wholly a branch off of my tried and true playing strength: a fast, in your face close combat army the rips you to shred, while a token amount of fire support from devs and the like thins down the enemy.
It has also been suggested I wait to see what the new codex brings, and mayhap play another Chaos army, but I am not sure. Certainly, this project won't be started much sooner than that.
So, what do you suggest for your Lord Commander? If you think an army not mentioned here would fit me, just say so! |
