Cons . If you like tricks the Judiciar is the guy you want to have on your side.

New Space Marine Codex for 9th Edition – The Winners and the Losers – PK’s Warhammer Wednesday . On turn one, in the Devastator Doctrine, use the Signum on a key gun (e.g. Limited Edition Imperial Space Marine. ... Bikes sit in an odd spot in the 9th Edition Marine Codex where they’re kind of ... Eliminators were one of the very best Marine units … fuck TEQ's) are 24" heavy 4 S8 AP-2 D3. RAW, their Crozius is only +1S instead of the +2S 9th edition. A vehicle that fails a plasma roll has a chance to not lose a wound. Equivalent to being able to re-roll. They're still Fists, just with some "heroic last stand" tones. Thematically, these guys are the edgier and far more violent version of the Blood Angels. If you can convince your opponent to let you field this, far and away the best choice - basically the same murder capability of the tlc option at a 10 point discount. I think if you could take even just a 5 man squad they’d be a lot better. Turn 3 (or earlier, with a Sanguinary Priest on hand) charges are absurd this time around. . Most expensive variant with a twin missile launcher for a flexible anti-GEQ and anti-tank weapons platform. By and large, this. Being a footslogger, however, you'll need to find him a way to the front line, but being firstborn he's got access to Rhinos, Razorbacks, Drop Pods, and Land Raiders just fine, and at the very least he's got an Assault 4 AP-1 D2 Bolter to jog across the board. Similar to the frost weapon explanations above with regards to strength values, you'll get a lot of use on force swords getting bumped to S6, but force staves do go to S8 for a diet thunder hammer. Neither of these two abilities are available as Successor Tactics. Your going to have 4 of them plus a Sergeant and, unlike the base squad, you're free to give any bolt rifle to any intercessor without forcing the rest of them to follow suit. Give it to a techmarine and the vehicles he sticks near will never die. Next the Razorback will probably use Twin Lascannons or Assault Cannons, and the two units will hunt units in tandem. Jink isn't available either, or Inner Circle morale immunity, but the Inner Circle resistance to being wounded is Stalwart, only better in that it works on rolls of 3 and worse in that it's significantly restricted in what models have it. The only terrain benefit that requires a unit to be entirely within area terrain is Defensible, which allows Infantry, and only Infantry, to choose +1 to melee hit rolls or 5+ if they Overwatch when they're charged, so you generally have to be fighting Infantry and presenting a melee threat for your opponent to bother letting you cast this. In fact, this kinda gives them more of a reason to. Company Champions are meh, but the Chapter Champion is ruthlessly efficient at his job. +1VP at the end of the battle (+5VP max) for each enemy unit killed by a Space Marine unit in the Devastator Doctrine with heavy or grenade weapons. Imperium's Sword and Champion of Humanity traits help him be a beatstick, and the Chapter Champion Martial Exemplar helps him as a supporting unit for melee wrecking balls. On the other hand, it can't compete with a quadruple multimelta Devastator Squad, even when it takes a movement penalty and fails to get into melta range. While utterly genericized from what once was, it at least gives you a squad that actually keeps up with Gabe and can provide some much-needed firepower. You're GW's favorites, so you'll always be the first to get anything new, including the first 9th edition codex, weapons updates, and a slew of supplements before anyone else even got a codex (4 Codices in 2020, with the only non-Marine Codex released being the Necrons). Not available to Deathwatch, you have the Watch Master. He's lost his old 6+ FNP aura, but that's still available in his Legends Terminator form. Infinite re-rolls to hit and wound means the unit he's babysitting wants as many flamers and multimeltas as it can carry. Nearly two months since the Space Marines Codex v2.0 first released, we’re finally getting the last parts of Marinetember, with the Imperial Fists and Salamanders supplements releasing (and a few key units that people expected to release months ago). Keep him out of unfavorable combat via screens, give him a jump pack for supreme positioning, and a combi weapon for some fire support and he'll make his points quickly especially in the MSU meta. Ridiculously easy to complete. Like the Elites version (up to three with special weapons); has ObjSec. Build around your Warlord! it gains +1 to hit rolls in the Fight Phase. Characters are also Infantry units, so a Character can count as the other unit to trigger this for their retinue. The Salamander Chapter Tactic and the updated Duty Eternal ability will also help with his compromised durability. Be aware that some armies have dangerous AA fire or even AA melee (Fly Monsters, Jetbikes, Battlesuits, etc). If you bring Helbrecht and use Mantra of Strength, you could have four WS2+, S8, D3 attacks, which is basically a thunder hammer without unwieldy. On the tabletop, their tactical flexibility is represented by them having a special named character for everything and abilities to change the current Combat Doctrine. When these guys come out of drop pods, don't forget that their rapid fire range is 15", so that can give them some space before the inevitable charge. This basically turns a squad of your choice into Snipers-lite, except it also works in melee. That said, this gives nothing to your more dedicated heavy weapons like your Devastators and Hellblasters. Has chaos been defeated? To benefit from Chapter Tactics, your army must be battle-forged, and all units in the detachment must be drawn from the same chapter. The T5 family is all bikes (Scout bikes, Attack Bikes, Outriders, Invaders, standard bikes), and Gravis units (Heavy Intercessors, Eradicators, Inceptors and Aggressors). The other side of the coin where it comes to Primaris detachments. Although this unit is a serious threat to your opponent it's unlikely to be killed off early, an impulsor's fairly tough anyway if you give it the shield dome equipment and hide it behind a wall it becomes incredibly difficult to remove turn 1. Still useful on its own. Vehicles also get a noticeable boost from this. Twin heavy onslaught gatling cannon (30", heavy 24, S6, AP-1, D1) and two tempest bolters (30", rapid fire 4, S4, AP-1, D1). Well worth taking the auto-launchers to scoot forward 10", use the stratagem for the -1 to hit rolls, then scoot forward again and start blasting. Well, now your TH/SS are 1+/4++/5+++, simple as. Star Phantoms Not available to Blood Angels, you have the Sanguinary Ancient. Worse than Assault Intercessors for stabbin' (you don't get +1A from chainswords or the heavy bolt pistol to fire in melee), worse than Intercessors for shootin' (unless you're targeting cover/hit modifying units), and worse than Infiltrators for denyin' (no omni-scramblers). Quick comparisons: The standard five-man Heavy Intercessor Squad is 140pts, giving you fifteen T5 wounds and five S5 guns. He is currently 30pts above a regular wolf priest. This increases your odds of a 9" charge to 58.33% (48.15% net if you have to pray on 3+ and 53.24% on a 2+, but if you care that much about a 9" charge, you're using the Commanding Oratory strat to let your Deep Striking Chaplain pray, which means the prayer auto-succeeds). Extra effective on Heavy weapon squads as you don't lose anything in the shift to Assault, they will also benefit from the Tactical Doctrine in turn 2. Once you master yourself you must master the codex, as again, Marines have an incredibly diverse and complex ruleset, and you need to understand each action you can take in each stage of the game. Objective Defense: The Ravens can defend an objective simply because of how difficult it is to hit them. Goes well with assault-oriented units obviously, and gels with both their Stratagems for some potent combos. Find some way of providing a FNP or Invulnerable save and plant them in cover. Without S7+ bolt weapons, it's hard to find synergy with your chapter tactics, so you might want to swap out to a Successor - Master Artisans and Stealthy, for example. Thematically, they're the archetypical steppe nomads but turned into a post-human military force. Could be interesting on a Primaris Lieutenant with a stalker bolt rifle. Just three lucky '6s' and so too is that Landraider! Good against hordes, better against multi-wound Infantry like Marines and Characters. These guys allow you to play Space Marines as if they were Orks. Stormfury missiles (48", heavy 1, S10, AP-3, Dd6), thunderstrike las-talon (36", heavy 2, S9, AP-3, Dd6), and a turreted twin icarus rocket pod (24", heavy 2d3, S7, AP-1, D2, blast and gains +1 to hit Aircraft units). Possibly now out-specialised by the sword and board option below. All Chapters Supplements include some variation of the following three stratagems. May mean the difference between losing an expensive model and keeping it around. Space Wolf. The Relic of the Chapter Stratagem can be used for extra relics, number depending on the size of the game. They wield devastating weapons such as the bolt rifle, the chainsword and the lascannon. Alternatively you can pick a Librarian or Chaplain (there's no Primaris Techmarines yet), and give them the double aura to boost a Hellblaster unit with Recitation of Focus / Tectonic Purge and Fortify. Enables your anti-infantry Centurions to also, Three HB Centurions (210 pts) inflict an average of, Kinda lame to be honest, considering that very few players actually take Fortifications in their lists. In the mean time, here is a brief list of several of the most popular units from before the nerfs. Lightning claws, hammernators, sword and board, you name it. Alternatives include two lascannon Razorbacks (240pts), but for anti-tank, we both know you're waiting for Eradicators to be available on their own. Only in Death Does Duty End will let him fight even if your opponent manages to take him down while Rise from the Ashes will let him potentially get back up and keep fighting. The changes to power weapon rules means that the Sergeant may actually want to keep his sword in this edition, rather than it being a useless hunk of crap. This is more effective, even on a 3+, than any of your psychic powers for granting a re-roll to charge, but of course psychic powers work natively with deep striking. Stoic is better than Indomitable in the instances where the unit fails by EXACTLY ONE. Most armies' S4 anti-chaff will bounce off, while weapons purpose-built for gibbing Tacticals/Primaris tend to be D2 or Dd3, meaning twice the shots to bring them down and plenty of wasted wounds; three D2 wounds will kill three normal Intercessors, but only one Heavy Intercessor. This is a very solid power that works well with a wide array of White Scar units thanks to the Chapter Tactic. You're going with this option if you really want to use all the benefits being a Primaris has, since you're stuck with a force sword and bolt pistol. It can opt to gain +1S and +1D for the usual suffer-MW-on-hit-roll-of-UM1, but that's not going to happen because frankly you're not going to take this weapon. All his rules are for you to Rip and Tear, so cram him into a transport that allows him to do that. The Annihilator deals 7 damage to the Destructor's 12, so target T and Sv (and W, of course) matter, but it can be hard to find good targets for the Destructor - for example, the Annihilator is more points efficient naked against MEQ. Master-crafted power sword (S+1, AP-3, D2) and bolt pistol. At its most extreme, an AP0 weapon shooting a target with enough T that it can only wound on 6s anyway will simply become AP-1, which against a Sv2+ target doubles its output. Don't expect these to be as effective as a Conscript conga. This is a MELEE formation; Sternguard were included only because their serge looks cool next to Calgar. Stormwrath bolts restrict the weapon to "make a single shot with this stats", but it DOESN'T changes a profile's rules: an Eliminator Sergeant can snipe characters with Stormwrath bolts with +2 to hit that ignore cover/inflict a MW on a 6+ to wound. The secondary armament is only inferior with the eight Lascannons and Demolisher Cannon of the Fellblade outgunning the Accelerator Cannon itself when combined. Now, nobody can tarpit you. Champions provide some deterrent with a 6" Heroic Intervention. Relics are now split into three categories. That's 5 Plasma shots and 6 Bolter shots on a 128 pt troops choice. Though the Repulsor does somewhat open them up to versatility, it pays significantly for multi-tasking and is often best for clearing out hordes; the Repulsor Executioner is its vehicle-killing cousin that shares the double-shooting trick of the IG's Leman Russ tanks. Primaris Captains have the option to get a special issue bolt carbine instead of the base bolt rifles. You take a base unit then add models from other units. Plus, scoring more shots than the weapon is actually capable of is always neat. On top of that… if you are charging in you already get to hit first, so its not that great. That means you can hit an entire unit of Land Speeders with it, or, if you prefer, an Invictor Warsuit (putting this on something that's about to charge will let you take advantage of getting +1 to hit on both range and melee). Relics of Macragge may only be taken by Ultramarines (unless you use a stratagem). The only exception is Assault-type weapons which can shoot after advancing, but since this means your bolters can't fire, it often isn't worth it anyway. Exactly the same as the Chainsword, this should be interpreted as +1A for one claw, +2A for two claws. Note: All Adeptus Astartes (Space Marines), have many similarities featuring power armor (3+ save), and many of the same units and weapons. Available only to Phobos characters, aka the tacticool Captain, Lieutenant, and Librarian found in the Shadowspear box. Though if you can't get stuck in because you're killing everything in the charge then pick something else-Nope its super powerful in 9th. In other words, stick to the Devastator Squad. They can speed into battle in armoured tanks and gunships, drop from the skies on grav-chutes and jump packs, or even teleport directly into their enemies’ midst. On the tabletop, these guys are good at blending hordes with their shot multipliers and sustained fire output - very important in 8th, aka the Horde Edition. Eradicators are essentially Fire Dragons with a Primaris's stats. The +1 to hit bonus stacks with the Combat Doctrine, allowing even a Lieutenant to ignore a -1 to hit penalty on other sneaky characters. Primaris Lieutenants can grab plasma pistols (but can no longer have both a bolt pistol and a plasma pistol as in 8E *sad*, no more mini Cypher/Moritat for you). While he lives, the entire unit has access to a stratagem so they can fall back and shoot. Since it doesn't fully synergize with the Combat Doctrine (it gets the to hit and to wound bonuses but not the AP bonus), it works better on a Successor Chapter. Space Marine Captains. Sternguard Veterans and Vanguard Veterans (replaced with Wolf Guard, who aren't really either - they're closer to company vets with jump packs than anything else). As an Elite-choice Marine Character, he has four wounds. Captain and Lieutenant auras, Librarian powers, Chaplain prayers, you get it now. Though the flamestorm cannons can threaten lighter vehicles, you should still add the multi-melta to be on the safe side. With Superb Tactician, you can even keep a pack of them as a super-swift pack of destroyers for a few turns. Finally, his Company Banner affects all Infantry and Biker models (not units, just models) within 6", rather than Core units. This option doesn't lean on supporting units as much as the Razorback rush. And since the cost of the apothecary limits your inclusion of other models (because you could buy them instead), he has to heal a lot more to justify himself. This is five copies of the Successor Tactic Preferred Enemy, and an ability not available as a Successor Tactic. As always with them, their biggest problem will be finding a way to be in position when and where Vulkan needs them to be, especially since they can't share a ride with him outside of a Sokar Stormbird or Thunderhawk, which cost too much to be taken seriously in both points and CP (a Stormbird will cost you, Vulkan standing with a 5-man devastator squad, armed with 4 Multi-Meltas and a Combi-Flamer, is. 40K: 9th Edition’s BIG Burning Questions. Well if you want that we’ve got the new Outriders, which I am really liking. With the extra shot they get from focusing on one target, they're most effective against lone vehicles and superheavies. This is because if you save either one of the lost wounds (27.78% chance to resist exactly 1; 30.56% chance to resist at least 1) it takes a whole second shot to even try to kill that model, thanks to damage not spilling over. Codex: Space Marines ($40) was published last year, during 8th edition. With 9 units coming in the Indomitus box some are bound to be better than others. Like other Bikers, he advances 6" instead of d6". The challenge to viability is that he doesn't heal any more than a regular apothecary, yet costs more. It will make you feel dirty fielding them and your opponents will never forget the cheese and hold grudges on them forever more, even if they get nerfed (now you know how Tau players feel). Unfortunately, Litanies need to be used in your command phase, but the deep strike happens at the end of the movement phase, so you can't use it on a unit that is deep striking this turn, nor can you use it while deep striking Astorath himself. While this can be a fun tactical minigame, it has no bearing on the first turn. Starting with a storm bolter and power sword, they've lost pistol, chainsword, and relic blade access. Very anti-infantry, they have the speed and weaponry to seriously put the pain on something in the Devastator Doctrine turn one with lots of AP-2 shots. If you go Space Wolves, Deathwatch, or Dark Angels, then Relic Terminators are outmatched in terms of Chapter-exclusive units that do the same weapon-mixing thing for a cheaper price tag. Did you know that bolt pistols are the greatest pistols? Impulsors might work but they can't carry Aggressors, and their meanest occupants are Vet Intercessors and Reivers. Same goes for the Storm Speeder, which also fills your anti-aircraft role in its Thunderstrike configuration. A Repulsor is expensive and prone to being a fire magnet. A Reiver with Headtaker's trophies, however, can inflict -2Ld on his own. One lucky '6' and the warlord is gone! As of the codex, Plasma Talons and Grenade launchers are free; built into the cost of the Black Knight. This 2-point upgrade adds the same amount of dakka as an entire 13-point Tactical Marine/11-point Scout. Being more difficult to kill is an obvious bonus to your Warlord, but unlike Guilliman, who is classified as a. Astral Claws love mortal wounds Bitchez!! It's a Fist strategy because 6s to hit generate extra hits, so statistically, it's, The Imperial Fists can have one of the mightiest Smash Captains of them all: Combine Siege Master with. Possessing terrifying speed, strength, and resilience, the Space Marines are genetically engineered super-soldiers whose humanity has been sacrificed so that they may unflinchingly stand against those who would see the Imperium fall. In the last year or so of 8th edition, Marines were very strong, particularly when using the Iron Hands and Raven Guard Chapter rules. Set him up with some Firestrike Turrets or Rapiers, and he'll be happy. As a result of these nerfs, the tactical situational for the Iron Hands is in something of a transitional state. Angel Exemplar will let you take this on your Warlord without displacing his real Warlord Trait, while Hero of the Chapter will let you take this on any other character. Positioning is the most important thing for this model, so hide it behind cover and use the larger model footprint to project a bigger aura in your gunline while you have a smash Captain and Lieutenant Deep Strike for melee combat elsewhere in the field. If course, if you plan on keeping close to a Captain or Chaplain (such as riding a Stormraven with them and another squad), that second CCW becomes redundant. Very effective against light/medium Vehicles (especially the usually flimsier Aircraft), as well as W3 Infantry such as Gravis and Terminator Marines, Tyranid Warriors, and Custodes. With a 45" max normal move (up to 65" if you advance), you can get right in the face of something, then have an almost guaranteed charge the next turn. This will be especially useful on the smaller board sizes with Bikers, allowing you to access more of the board with ease. After failing your save, you are allowed to roll for each lost wound individually. In one thirty man tournament, a Salamanders list managed to fight its way up to 1st place. If Tyberos is your warlord, you should really be pumping everything you can into his attacks - his hitting power is strong, but his overall volume of attacks quite low by comparison. Three of these guys hopping out in rapid fire range of an enemy command unit will quickly put them down, and they're only 60pts each. Well now your TH/SS are 1+/4++/5+++, simple as. Against T7 and T8 models, you wound on a 4+/5+ but the powerfist wounds on 3+/4+ and doesn't eat a relic slot. Striking first's always nice, re-rolling To-Wound's just the icing on the cake. For example, a unit of 2 wound models being attacked by a D2 weapon is approximately 35% more durable. The target is within the weapon's half range (normal rapid fire rules). It also has a much better model. The Space Marines in Indomitus represent the spearhead forces of Battle Group Kallides, tasked by Roboute Guilliman to push into an eerily silent region of space known as the Pariah Nexus. Use with caution. The choppy primaris marines. As a rule, only units which have the CORE keyword can benefit from an aura. You're already AP-4, so going to AP-5 only affects Sv2+ models which almost always have an invulnerable save. It is worth giving him LC to make use of his 3 attack base or giving him a TH/SS combo. 28 points. The Angels of Death. Capable of using its lascannons to pop a vehicle and then following up with the heavy bolters to wipe out a MEQ squad. Thanks to a wealth of deployment and redeployment options, they will constantly be moving in to attack from multiple directions, and they are one of the few chapters that can reliably deliver Primaris units into close quarters without relying on transports. Characters on the other hand do not have this … Aura: Space Wolf Core units within 6" of this model and within engagement range of enemy units also fight first. Neither of the Flesh Tearers abilities are available as Successor Tactics. Autocannon synergises nicely with rest of Invictor weapons, with the heavy stubbers and heavy bolter having 36" range. Still under-costed for what they can spit out. Does face a bit of competition from other Deathwing characters (despite being a similar point price) and without actually being an HQ. This certainly changes its uses quite drastically from the auto take it was in 8th edition to something more niche. He's not in Terminator armour so you'll need to Transport him to get there, but you also have more transport options available to you. You can also swap the chainsword for a lightning claw if you want to add some points efficient melee punch, but remember, this is a ranged unit - you're better off saving the points and playing intelligently to avoid being in melee, if you can. Best used by a Fearsome Aspect chapter so you don't have to commit like 5 units to a single enemy. Heavy flamers are added to the heavy weapon list. Named characters still can't take this detachment's warlord trait, though. if you're a successor chapter and you swapped out +1 to wound for Whirlwind of Rage, which does the same thing this spell does, so now on an unmodified 6 you land. It only seems like yesterday that I was flicking through the new 40k 8th edition Codex Space Marines and Codex Supplement Ultramarines but really a lot has happened since August 2019. Assault Centurions can pump out more S4 shooting (two flamers + hurricane bolter, provided they don't advance), ignore cover when shooting, hit harder and more often (Centurions hit on a 3+ with A3 S10 AP-4 D3 and Aggressors hit on a 4+ with A3 S8 AP-3 D2), and are more durable (Centurions W4 and Sv2+ vs Aggressors W3 and Sv3+). Since this one only works offensively, you want it on a faster Chaplain - the Litany does nothing when you are charged. Storm Shields are currently cheaper for Vanguards, by 1 point, so a normal Vet with a Storm Shield and DW Bolter is 25 points to a VV's 23 for a Shield and Chainsword or a Shield and Bolt Pistol, so if literally all you want is the cheapest 2+/4++ you can field, this guy is currently it. In a pinch it might even serve as a TEQ hunter. Let us know which of the new units you like best, down in the comments! Good if you want a 'Smash-Master' with Jump Pack & TH/SS on par with a Blood Angel's smash-captain vs toughness up to 5, and 8 though 10. 16 Blood Claws will provide you 32 power armoured wounds on a single unit, making it difficult for your opponent to claim objective markers and unit killing objectives. Terminator Ancients can grab claws or hammer+shield so he can have some power in a fistfight. Gives the whole unit a fear aura of -2Ld to enemy units in 3". Just remember, casting isn't guaranteed to succeed (unlike the aura, which is always on) and even if you pass, your opponent can attempt to deny the power with a psyker of their own. This army is made of excellent models with superior statlines, that only get better as you mix in subfaction special rules: You'll almost always have an armour save. The point changes in 9th have everyone scratching their heads. Anything else in terminator armor wants to deep strike, not footslog, so you'd probably prefer a jump pack and gleaming pinions. to look at each unit… You have a lot of options for Troops but they're actually decent this edition. Very situational, but fluffy and still strong. DoL: Very straightforward, just use the Warlord to slay a. Aura: Space Wolf Core units gain +1 to wound rolls when attacking Monsters and Vehicles in melee. Go all in with the Trait and Relic for the guy you want plodding up the board and babysitting your Dreadnoughts. If you switch to any two of Whirlwind of Rage, Hungry for Battle, and Tactical Withdrawal, you may notice your army performs better. Costing him at 95pts and swapping his 8th edition Company Banner for the 9th edition version that reaches more models seems reasonable to me, but you start veering into homebrew tweaks then. Cast Might of Heroes on him for another +1A and +1S, giving him. While the movement is much slower, it can Deep Strike, has a more reliable Invulnerable save, and more importantly, has a 2+ save rather than a 3+. Feel free to add what tactics and strategies have worked against specific armies in your own personal experience. Fun thing: if you combat squad a unit, they still count as troop choices, so they have Objective secure. Executioner rounds will be for the pesky units the rely on cover, like Scouts, Eliminators, Eldar Rangers, and Ratlings. Positioning is important, but it's even more important with the Rhino Primaris. A great unit to have, and only made better by not using an Elite slot if you have a Captain. The Infiltrators can bring in a mini-apothecary or count as being in range of a Phobos Captain/Lt. Ultramarines have the Successor Tactic Stoic and an ability not available as a Chapter Tactic. Fast Attack is also a less competitive slot for most armies, so you can take them and three Heavy Supports without taking another detachment. Look to your special units and unit options to find a way to shine, or be a successor. With Centurions going up in points I’m thinking we will be seeing these guys start to take their place. When you deploy your units leave a nice gap behind your lines where an enemy infantry unit could deepstrike just in range of your agressors ideally a unit of six that hasn't moved, when your opponent tries to deepstrike his infantry play the 1CP stratagem to shoot all your aggressors at his guys TWICE at a -1 penalty, (you should have a chapter master in range anyway so that's not too big a deal) even with a 5 man aggressor unit you should annihilate any light infantry that tries to deepstrike for just 1 cp. This is the Space Wolves Combat Doctrine, on a Librarian stick.
