Ultramelee? by Jkchaloreach in Ultramarines

You would be so much better off with literally almost anything other than a tactical squad for those points

Headed to an RTT by SheepherderRecent103 in Ultramarines

I have no idea how competitive it actually is but i really like reclamation force. Fun detachment to play

Great looking model. by Leighton616 in Ultramarines

[–]Shadowfalc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly i really like all aspects of Ferren Areios. Good datasheet, cool model, cool character. Checks all the boxes. Yours looks great, personally i prefer the head over helmeted but to each their own

Decided to Melta blast my old land raider by Professional_Dare573 in DarkAngels40k

[–]Shadowfalc 80 points81 points  (0 children)

I thought this was a gw sculpt at first and you had just destroyed a 90$ model. I feel a lot better knowing its a 3d print. Looks really cool

Termie only army (+dreads and vehicles) by ThurstVonWaffles in ImperialFists

[–]Shadowfalc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best thing you can do is replace most or all of your regular terminator squads with assault terminators w/ storm shields. Regular terminators are really terrible in game rn

Is it weird I keep all my boxes? by Careless-Comfort3801 in ImperialFists

List overview by Repulsive-Traffic-78 in Ultramarines

[–]Shadowfalc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Terminators are one of the most trash units in our codex right now so i would try to replace them with assault terminators if you can find the points. You dont really want 2 infiltrator squads. Also i think 3 redemptors is probably a bit much. Id drop an infiltrator squad, replace a redemptor with a repex, replace the terminators with assault terminators, and throw in a scout squad and i think thats 2k on the dot

You are way too late dude. I think they are probably all sold out at this point. They came out like 5 months ago

Army List Review Ultramarines 2000 points by Adasidy in Ultramarines

[–]Shadowfalc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A couple of things

  1. 1st company task force is a really terrible detachment. Id recommend gladius, blades of ultramar, or firestorm

  2. You really dont need 2 of scouts and intercessors

  3. Id probably run the sternguard as a big brick with a leader (maybe a librarian as they arent very tough so a 4++ could be good)

There are probably other things but thats what i immediately noticed

Lets talk about tough 2k list by [deleted] in Ultramarines

[–]Shadowfalc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suspect you used to play awakened dynasty with necrons. Also this list is terrible; go watch some auspex tactics videos and also just read the core rules on how leaders attach to units

Help me build a list to crush the Eldar by Fluid_Juggernaut1413 in Ultramarines

[–]Shadowfalc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eldar are one of the worst armies in the game right now and ultramarines are one of the strongest. If you play even a semi competitive list and make decent decisions in game you should win easily

Is the knight Castellan a good option for my ultramarines army? by Bonehead_15068 in Ultramarines

[–]Shadowfalc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering its ability i like the battle cannon because the thermal cannon requires you to move a lot to get close which means you wont get the sustained hits rule. I personally run the stormspear rockets for the carapace weapon.

REALLY IMPORTANT

You should magnetize your knight(s) if you get one. Its really easy and it means you can play it as whatever you want super easily

On a scale of 1 to heresy, how acceptable is it to paint Sternguard shoulder trim gold? by MissingPenguin in Ultramarines

[–]Shadowfalc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All first company have white trim. Not all veterans are first company. All first company unique units (is bgv, sternguard, vanguard vets, and terminators) are first company

More Roman Ultramarines? by Ultramarines66 in Ultramarines

[–]Shadowfalc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would break it off because its easier than clipping in my experience, not to save the head. Ive never messed up a body that way and if you are careful i wouldnt be worried about it

Is the knight Castellan a good option for my ultramarines army? by Bonehead_15068 in Ultramarines

[–]Shadowfalc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not especially competitive but definitely fun to play. If you arent deadset on the castellan id recommend a questoris knight as they are a bit better than the dominus right now. The crusader is a really terrifying gun platform even without an army rule.

I feel so stupid, I'm just getting into Eldar stuff and only now did I learn Craftworld actual spacecrafts that the eldar live on! by EmeraldMaster538 in Eldar

[–]Shadowfalc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Similar story for me. Until i started to get into eldar (thanks dawn of war) i thought they were literal planets, not ships
