Default Quick questions

I've been out of the 40k loop for awhile and I have a few new questions about rules,fluff ect. on the space marine side.

1) can SMs (or CSMs) use baneblades?If they did would they be in the chapter colors?

2)to the 2 new land raiders count as VDRed land raiders or cannon ones?

3)Do you think space marines need a recon in reguards to their numbers?I TT and
DoW they seem to lose too much of their number in skirmishes to only be 1000 in number.

thats all for now,thanks!

1) they can use them if they have IG auxiliaries, that means one hq and 2 troop choices, unless i`m horribly wrong at 5 am

2) Never saw any details, sorry

3) Fluff and gameplay don`t relate that much

If they did orks and guardsman wouldn`t have so similar stats

hm, i seem to recall something from somewhere about SM baneblade use. worst comes to worst, just use it as an ally in a friendly game :]
if you use the apoc rules featured on the site, i would guess it being official, ie not VDRed, especially since the terminus has an actual model :]

and wakim, WHAT are you doing up at 5 am ? haha sleep is good for you, despite what erus tells you :P

Pre-Heresy the SM used the Baneblade (known as the fell blade). Post-Heresy it was taken and debased into the baneblade. You can use one.. but it can NOT be in Chapter Colors, and fluff woudl dictate a sizable detachment of IG with it.

Yeah but i`m pretty sure they rules dictate you must bring IG troops and hq in order to use the BB, not just fluff :P

Since it`s listed as an IG unit.

Just as you`d need an inquisitor in order to use sister auxiliaries

And 'rawr' - i slept through most of the day

Erhhh.. The plaguereaper did has 'corrupted guard;' behind it initially. The battle report ****ed it up, but we know how reliable/neutral battle reports are!

And, if you take a baneblade, IMHO you need more than just 2 troops and a command platoon. Baneblades are rare relics, almost liek titans, and should be suitably well guarded.
