I do love that no matter what, simply because of battleshock doesn’t move over into the opponent’s turn, it’s effectively useless.
They tried to make it more impactful but due to fear of having players upset at “not being able to use the unit,” they have made it underwhelming. And, yes, I do think this is the reason they made it this way because of their excuse for making physic the way it is now
This is what happens when books are written more than 6 months before the meta materializes. GW's insistence on having physical material as the primary source for rules is by far the biggest holdback for game design, but I guess revenue from codex sales is just too damn sweet.
Sorry, but not sorry: GW is shits
I hate how GW’s seeming reaction to being called out on Primaris lacking weapon diversity over FB is not to increase diversity of rules and loadouts of Primaris but instead turn FB stuff into “heirloom weapons” and other such consolidations
Don't look great, don't look bad. New OoM is real sad though, played a few games with and against it, its real sad, marines don't really need reroll hits, watching all those wounds failing is heartbreaking
I am so tempted for a shield chaplain with shield termies 10 man with a fnp
For the Fear Made Manifest enhancement, it sounds more then worth it to keep an insane bravery
"A detachment just for 1st company|! OMG this is going to be awe—. Oh….This is…Um…Yeah…"
I was hoping the fear made manifest would work on vehicles/ monsters. Gw went out of their way to make this detachment simply ass.
I gotta feeling this is supposed to mesh into other Codex's in the future? Maybe the glaring weaknesses are there because we are only seeing half of the effective detachment? Like this could slot in a propper deathwatch supliment or something.
it is an absolutely terrible detachment.. not sure who thought this would be a good idea. Which is a shame as it has a nice theme, seems lots of people wanted to run this one. I think art of war made a good video, looking at the detachments, this one really sucks
I REALLY dislike the loss of weapon options for the Terminator Captain. Pretty much every SM player built one at the start of 10th, because they are actually quite good. Removing the options is a slap in the face to people who JUST built them and are playing them widely in lists. GW please revert these changes and give us these options back! My Relic Sword/Relic Shield Terminator Captain is just too cool to change!
I'll just be sticking to Gladius with my Deathwing, and honestly I won't be buying this garbage codex.
It’s terrible
You would think this detachment would be the best one by far, but no, that honor goes to Salamanders for now….Till they nerf it.
Are wolf guard terminators going to receive a refresh do we think? Including characters like Njal and Arjac?
I think for me at least if OoM had always been just re-roll hits, then FCTF would look a lot better. Then it would seem like an actual buff.
would moral be good against things like rely on Strats to function better in combat? Like does it count as Strat denial?
yes :v it bad you can feel it when you play agaist deathguard
Make terminators battleline with this detachment. Boom.
Was hoping this detachment would be more interesting, eh whatever the salamanders one fit my chapter pretty well
You could do some funny stuff with this, I think with the death wing command squad+terminator ancient with the OC enhancement could have like 48 oc squad there
I love the slight with a picture of a 2nd company bladeguard when its clear they're 1st company 😛
Pennant of remembrance is an unforgiven enhancement, so can't to it with a 1st company detachment.,
I assume when DA get our codex we'll have a similar Deathwing one but I hope its slightly better than this. Wouldn't mind the unforgiven TF strats but swap one out for the orbital teleportarium.
and…. what about stormlance…??? im very dissapointed…:(
What they should have honestly done is let them keep the old oath of moment and gave them all sticky but only let them select veteran units only. Add the veteran key word to more units. So your limited to what can be used in an army but at same time you are strong in the right scenario. Balances out lack of unit but sticky and reroll hit and wounds
Then a upgraded strat for squad tactics to be used on two units rather than 1
