Blog Entries: 10   |  Scions Of Mars ?? Ok I understand the first part of the trait, but the second part is what is confusing me. "amend the points cost for terminator armor to 25/15. this means that single wound models can be given terminator armor" do i take this to mean that if i were to say give a sergent terminator honors i could then give him terminator armor??? and weapons??? anyone have an awnser?

Blog Entries: 1 | Its a trait attempt to capture the Iron Hands... Terminator squad leaders are kind of useless IMO...But the Lead by a Techmarine is pretty cool and its got nice fluff potential

| hey steve i think your list is not legal my understanding is that a command squad must be lead by the IC since he is mounted in a razerback its not possible for him to have a term command squad i think just moving them to an elite choice will fix this

Blog Entries: 10 | Think it would be worth it to drop the Bionics off the Techmarine and take a homer? I think that would be a much better idea...

Techmarine: Bolt Pistol, Power Weapon, Servo-Harness(Twin-Linked Plasma Pistol, Flamer, Servo Arm x2), Frag Grenades, Signum, Iron Halo, Jump Pack, Terminator Honors This lets him move as jump infantry, have a 2+/4+, fire a twin linked plasma pistol and flamer, or swap one of the two harness weapons out for bolt pistol. The signum lets him and the assault squad (with dual plasma pistols usually) to re-roll one missed to hit shooting roll for the Techmarine or any squad that the Techmarine belongs to or has joined. He has base attack of 5. + 1 for charging equals six. Then the two servo arm generate TWO power fists attacks separate of the tech-marine. All in all, 8 attacks. 6 power weapon, 2 power fist, twin linked plasma pistol and a bolt pistol or flamer... Take an elite tech Elite Tech Marine: Bolt Pistol, Power Weapon, Servo-Harness, Auspex, Frag Grenades, Signum, 1x Gun Servitor(Heavy Bolter), 3x Tech-Servitor, 1x Razorback(Twin-linked Heavy Bolter, Extra Armour, Smoke Launcher). A perfect, and insanely powerful jump infantry tech marine who can slaughter terminator squads or repair that dreadnought! And the Elite tech marine to back him up, who can still kick some major ass, but has a horde of tech servitors to give him a DAMNED nice c hance of repairing things.

| keep in mind though your scouts led by that termie sergeant will no longer be able to infiltrate! and to really hammer home to point about just how silly you can be with the 'sicons' trait, it's perfectly legal to have a termie sergeant w/sniper rifle who can move & fire?!!  sure it would be a cool conversion and all, but it just goes to show you how stupidly broken the marine codex really is! (ie; it's a prime example of why the 2 authors who wrote the 'dex are no longer games designers!) cheers!

Of course, by far the worst is the fact that Terminators don't actually wear terminator armor by the letter of the law... which is umm... *restains self* crap.

 )the traits system is silly as there's only 1 real 'disavantageous' trait being the 'aspire to glory', which 99.9% of marine players don't take! that and the whole min/maxing with foolishly cheap tactical squads is annoying... cheers!
