  1. I think part of what’s holding Space Marines back is that our big tanks have such swingy weapon profiles . You know how many times I’ve made a harrowing attack at an enemy tank, gotten through armor saves to just do 2-3 damage? Feels bad man.

  2. I've definitely been considering armor options for my Black Templars list; a BT Impulsor for Sword Brethren, BT Repulsor for a Crusader Squad seem strong.
    Curious to see how effective a Whirlwind ends up being in practice, artillery seems likeba good concept but not sure if it actually plays well

  3. I still wish they would bring back any of the 3 tank 'HQs' for the full armor list. Though I guess 1-3 Techmarines with a Rhino or two (depending on list) to scoot them around for repairs would be better.

  4. Great video. Just getting into the hobby and starting a Dark Angels army. Was able to preorder the Inner Circle Christmas box to start, and have a Gladiator Lancer and impulsar transport ready to build. Also got some Hellblasters and Infiltrators. On my way to a complete army! Now I’m ordering a Tabletop Stronghold case to house it all! Thanks for the great videos!

  5. I ran a fully mechanised SW list yesterday, using each of every currently available rhino chassis with no other vehicles, and won without losing a single unit. These treads can still crush skulls perfectly fine

  6. Just thought id check, whats the general opinion of the brutalis dread becaus i believe it may have jus been missed in the vid but i've ran it a little and wonder if i should keep it

  7. I bought 2 Vindicators a few years ago and ever since I've always had a SM list with one in it, I just love the things and if they get sunset without a timely M42 replacement I'll probably stop playing standard/tournament legal and go to legacy/friendly only

  8. I've split my vehicles between my U.M. and D.G.

    The Ultramarines get the new primaris stuff, like the Repulsors, Dreadnoughts, Gladiators and Impulsors etc.

    The Death Guard get the old Marines stuff like Rhinos, Preditors and Land Raiders
