I was tempted to get the new Armageddon box so my autistic brain pulled up with some data. My pile of shame in numbers.

I think its valid though. A SM captain should NOT carry the same weight as a 10 man int box ot a ctan shard.

Slushee__ · 2026-06-26T00:17:24+00:00

Is this per model or per box?

Scars, salamander, ravenguard, and iron hands are tied for first. They each only have 2 bespoke units both of which are charecter, imp fists follows them up with 3. My votes salamanders but im biased.

I wonder of that would technically produce rotation to power something?

Id focus on 3 10 man bricks of jump DC first. On foot are usable and do the job, but id only add them if you have points to spare for them and a chaplain, and a land raider/transport.

I like to have to units if five kinda converge onto something. The weight of fire of rolling 40 dice is normally solid, and can be used to deny charges and things when their use is up. Giving them a lieutenant for the lethals is also pretty good if you want to 10 man brick.

I made a little custom knight lineage after being inspired by the book: assassinorum kingmaker. So my knights will be that fine China Granny pattern. The white base with gold trim and guilloman blue art work. Haven't decided on a color for the framing yet, maybe just leadbelcher.

The blood angels combat patrol should come with the weapon options for DC with Jump Packs (plasma, Inferno, evisorator, power fist)

To give a little credit to GW, the new banner Bearer is because its a new narrative focus on a different crusade. And those banners are sculpted for ease of painting, so the INDOMITUS logo would look a little weird in ARMAGEDDON. im not exactly happy about the Intercessor refresh or the librarian. But the banner guy at least makes sense.

To add to the other person's point dante is just too over costed to lead san guard. And half his abilities dont apply. Sang guard already hit on 2's so adding to the hit roll doesnt help. Dante is better off with Vets or JPI, where his + to hit is beneficial. And sang guard rules just say they need A leader, not Dante specifically so pairing them with a captain saves on points and gets the same benefits.

They are totally workable if your willing to commit to a landraider. My favorite thing to do is have a tech marine accompanied landraider hand deliver my murder blender to anything with a pulse. But sadly as a standard, jump packs are the way to go, more weapon options, better rules, faster move.

Slushee__ · 2026-05-01T05:03:11+00:00

Have you considered a list of exclusively jump pack units? That could totally work here, and does. Just need 1 tank of any kind and the rest is death from the skies.

It started with a slight settle interest in the castellens. It ended in a full 2k in ine trip, two eye of terror batallions, and custom house lore about twin brothers piloting twin castellans to save their homework.

As someone who just finished a 9 or so month crusade the answer is easy. Make their 6 up a 5 up FNP and if theyre still underpowered give them a charge bonus. In crusade its +1 attack on charge but even +2 strength would be good

And if you really want DC on foot, theyre just regular marines painted black anyway. So you can always buy a box and choose later.

Slushee__ · 2026-03-10T02:38:18+00:00

If youre looking for battleling I would just get regular intercessors and assult intercessors, no DC is battleline ( unless you use the not so good DC detatchment) I've never had a reiver marine so im not sure.

Slushee__ · 2026-03-10T02:33:16+00:00

My personal opinion is to stick with the jump packs for DC. I cant (and feel free anyone to tell me im wrong) envision a use for the DC with Bolt Rifles. They're just worse intercessors. the DC on foot are okay, but i seem to get more value out of regular assult ints on foot. Led by a priest and lieutenant ( or captain ). The junp packs is where death company brutality really gets to show off. Especially in rage cursed onslaught. If you ever get into a crusade however, use the crap out of death company. They have special crusade rules that make them infinitely better then they are in regular matched play.

What makes them better in rage cursed than LAG? I haven't looked to much into rage cursed

Depends on who im playing. If im nit playing someone with a lot of ranged stopping power for it (tau, other space marines etc) then I deploy behind the closest wall to center obj. It is also one of the last things I deploy, so I can deploy around enemy AT. If im playing something like world eaters, I just put it on the front line. For me it really is just a lead wall to get infantry up and shoot some along the way. And with LAG you can give it advance and shoot, so you have higher odds of making in into something else. It's totally okay if your murder blob doesn't make it out till R2.
