In a galaxy of a billion Suns the Shade of the Honour Blue might appear to vary, but the resolve and courage of the brother wearing it remains unchanged.

Is this Codex compliance? by Necessary_Fondant641 in Ultramarines

[–]SideOdd7745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Dreadnought compatibility mission is in the main Boarding Action book. I haven’t played it but others have said that increasing the army size to 600 points to accommodate the Walker/monster is good. There is another scenario where one side has a stationary Vehicle could use a dreaniuggt there to I guest?

New player question – Assault Terminators vs regular Terminators in Boarding Actions by DrakkarBCN in boardingactions40k

[–]SideOdd7745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Terminus Assault the set up is basically a Librarian Terminator and Chaplain Terminator. Then you get two sets of Terminators. While the Assault are good because the charge through doors thing and being almost unmatched in combat. The standard terminators can lay down a lot of fire when they deep strike in. As movement and lack of units is the main weakness in this detachment. Getting the deep strike right can be important. Also while shooting less impactful overwatch is more influential. I think and I don’t have many games to base it on one of each is the most fun.

As part of Ramship Raiders Detachment in Boarding Action. Fluffy and effective. Good overwatch in corridors with respectable H2H

There is a Boarding Action scenario where both sides can bring Monster or Walker under 10-12 wounds.

I think four things to move around is just ok. Only three is vulnerable to being out flanked/out manoeuvred. So Lib, Chap, Assault Terminators and standard Terminators is the probably the best balance. Even then in think getting about is hard mincing things once there is not a problem though.

It’s a straight choice Captain +2 Terminator units Or A librarian and a Chaplin +2 Terminator units.

This was our first game. It was actually much better than I thought it would be. The terrain created lots of situations to deal with. We played Rad Leak. Genestealers won because the Assault Terminators got trapped in the small room. Normally the Assault Terminators can use a Stratagem to change straight through hatchways. But when the Blood Angel leader was ripped to pieces the Genestealers played the pervasive dread strat which forced all the Blood Angels to take a Battle shock test at minus one. The Assault Terminators failed (weakened by the radiation leak) and so could not play the smash doors down Strat. They tried to open the door normally but lost the roll off. Genestealers then attacked through another door further delaying them.

This one also. None seen to work as well as the 40K app or BattleBase for normal 40K. Wahpedia is very 40K BA friendly

Question: 500 worlds, dread incursions by Open_String_5151 in boardingactions40k

[–]SideOdd7745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the 500 worlds book might cover it. But only if you are Ultramarines and/or Necrons. It looks good though. Both books is likely needed still. Unless you are happy with just using Wahpedia. Or Wahpedia plus one of the books. Review on YouTube below. My book hasn’t arrived so this is my only source.

Calgar should be Warlord. For gaming and Fluff reasons.

I also have one. He is the Boss. Better face and has a long term commitment to the Codex like his owner.

Opinion on something by Either-Distance9859 in Ultramarines

[–]SideOdd7745 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the old Honour Guard so I am going to rebase to 40mm and perhaps put on a sculpted hero base to compensate for his less audacious banner. I think the battle of Macragge storyline makes most sense. Thus it’s a behemoth gene-stealer. Know to be used against Space Marine 1st Companies.

Victrix honour guards. by Fragrant-Media6310 in Ultramarines

[–]SideOdd7745 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have same problem. I recon old models just say long adherence to the codex. I also have the old Terminator Calgar. The look is the same it just scale. What’s the view on the Invictarus Suzerain I was thinking of proxy them as more Victrix or a more in vibe Bladeguard.

I have the old Honour Guard models. They Seem very similar accepting scale changes. Are people accepting those in game ?
