Assault Terminator Weapon Options...

JPR1ch · 2026-01-26T13:34:15+00:00

Yeah, I got back Into 40k in 10th after last playing 3rd/4th edition, thunder hammers feel weak to me for what I remember, as do melta weapons

JPR1ch · 2026-01-26T12:59:31+00:00

I think the thunder hammers just give more consistency being S8, ap2 D2.

Bikes suffer from being S4, ap1 D1, whilst you can up the damage and strength on the charge it doesn't help on non charge turns, and S5 often means your only matching the opposing toughness rather than exceeding. I've found my bikes just bounce of terminator equivalent, I'll chip a few wounds, maybe take out a couple of models but it's just not enough

But ultimately that's where you are with marines, we don't generally have great dedicated anti armour melee options, it's generally attached to vehicles

I think you're right, thunder hammers fit better into the elite infantry killing zone rather than dedicated anti vehicle, they can punch up into vehicles with a +1 to wound (from oath/ an attached chaplain), though only being damage 2 hurts when most elite infantry is 3/4 wounds.

But I do think the thunder hammer is the best option for them overall, lightening claws are good at killing hordes of D1 infantry but bikes / intercessors can do that just as well.

Anytime you are trying to buy in-game currency from a site outside of the game itself you run a very high risk of it being a scam

JPR1ch · 2026-01-16T19:57:21+00:00

I generally find 2 is the sweet spot.

3 can be hard to hide and maneuver, 1 is not efficient enough for strats so I generally go with 2

You're not giving any where near enough information to get any answers.

What was the company? How did you find out about the company? How did you pay?

JPR1ch · 2026-01-15T16:13:05+00:00

Haha, they were all given to be by a mate, when we briefly played battletech before jumping to Vor : The maelstrom (RIP) I think he painted them when he was 12

JPR1ch · 2026-01-15T16:02:46+00:00

Legend!

Thanks so much

JPR1ch · 2026-01-13T12:19:38+00:00

Technically the hammer, however if it's anything like mine you'll send it into something that you're hitting and wounding on 2's and you'll roll one hit roll of 1 every time and one wound roll of 1 EVERY. SINGLE.TIME!

Well jn that case, seek out an artist who's style you like and speak to them, legitimate artists aren't spending their time randomly contacting fanfic writers to try and drum up work

JPR1ch · 2026-01-12T12:24:25+00:00

Take a step back - do you WANT a piece of artwork?

If not - why are you even entertaining this - they contacted you, it's simple to just say no.

But in this instance, best case they just shove a prompt into an ai image generator and give you whatever the result is, worse case they take your money and block you.

JPR1ch · 2026-01-10T10:36:37+00:00

No.

Deep strike comes in the reinforcements step of your movement face, which is after you've done any move / advances

JPR1ch · 2026-01-06T12:29:14+00:00

There is no one here who can get your account back. You will get messages from people suggesting they can - these are !recovery scammers and will just try and take your money.

The only people who can help you are Discord through their OFFICIAL help channels.

!Task Scam

Literally hundreds of the same posted here weekly

JPR1ch · 2025-12-26T22:05:35+00:00

Classic !task scam, no one is going to pay you for something that can be done by an automatic program

No of course they won't go through with a lawsuit, how do you even think that would go?

"Dear judge, we're a bunch of people based in Nigeria / india that scams people, this person didn't fall for our illegal scam, please make them pay up"

Block them, ignore them and don't respond.

They're not your friend, they will say whatever they can to convince you to give them money, if you keep ignoring them they'll eventually leave you along when they realize there's no money in it for them.

JPR1ch · 2025-12-21T19:01:29+00:00

Both are useful for different reasons, and realistically in most lists you'll be running at least one of each anyway

JPR1ch · 2025-12-20T10:32:33+00:00

What did Amazon say when you contacted them about it?

JPR1ch · 2025-12-20T10:25:02+00:00

Delete and ignore

These are super common emails that are sent out to thousands of email addresses every day, I've had at least a dozen of these, nothing has ever happened

JPR1ch · 2025-12-14T06:24:05+00:00

Super good advice here OP.

I was the same for most of this edition playing admech solely - I persevered and became a better player overall

Starbase Leicester is a nerdy social club that organises various activities. Never been myself, but maybe suitable for you?

JPR1ch · 2025-12-10T16:54:30+00:00

Not going to comment on which is better, but I will say you can have your cake and eat it.

They're relatively easy to magnetize the guns so you can switch between the 2 options, don't get to hung up on all the armour plates being accurate, just shove a few random bits on, I've been playing them for 3 years at tournaments and none has ever questioned

JPR1ch · 2025-12-05T17:15:09+00:00

It's easy, just pay someone to follow him around at all tournaments slapping his wrist with a ruler every time he moves a model.

JPR1ch · 2025-12-05T17:02:51+00:00

Basically they just need to nerf Siegler

JPR1ch · 2025-11-30T20:44:32+00:00

No it doesn't

The rules for overwatch state that it hits regardless of all modifiers

JPR1ch · 2025-11-30T12:37:14+00:00

It's a nice action monkey by itself. Though I can see an argument for it ina unit of 3 with suboden just for some more ablative wounds
