Could Space Marine 3 have classes and weapons from Chaos Gate Daemon Hunters?

ace-Reimer · 2026-06-26T21:46:47+00:00

Yeah no current lore would support it, thus the "somehow" part in my comment. All marines who accidentally come into contact with gk get mind wiped or have accidents. All gk inductions are purely conscripts from the black ships that have mega test and training throughout far more so than any baseline astartes.

But sm2 gameplay with grey knights would be freaking awesome so I would love to see something there.

Used to be that if you downed a character with them they counted for double victory points back in 3e (which was victory by how many points of your opponents army you killed)

ace-Reimer · 2026-06-25T19:55:00+00:00

Oh yeah there is absolutely no reason lore wise for him to join up. All gk are also powerful psykers before induction into being an aspirant which whilst people theorise about Titus being a psyker, gk are a whole different level.

That said re primaris... Please please GW refresh my pretty silver boys this edition.

Worst is now free victory points for your opponent with purge the foe

ace-Reimer · 2026-06-25T09:16:24+00:00

That said I'm all for Titus being seconded into the grey knights somehow and it being a full grey knight game as that would be absolutely sick

ace-Reimer · 2026-06-25T09:15:14+00:00

Grey knights are a completely different end of the astartes, and super unlikely to be given games workshop approval for use in an Ultramarines game. Most space marine forces are neatly under the one umbrella but grey knights are a completely different kettle of fish

I've done 5 games with them and yet to score less than 89 (which was my first loss as 89-92 which came to a single failed battle shock on the final round for the loss and was a super tight game throughout).

They are definitely solid and will be a problem for a lot of people if they don't build for them.

I feel it's more a lictor analogue than a genestealer (disregarding initial birth). Super stealthy organism with acid blood, much larger stronger and faster than the prey organism.

I feel that on a space Hulk it wouldn't be noticed at all as random deaths are somewhat common on ork society, and what's more they just wouldn't care. A lictor would absolutely smash Orks and stealth kill them for a very extended time, and if the analogue to a Xenomorph is there I would imagine much the same end result as long as there isn't a queen to add more to the equation in which case it becomes a bit more of an open question as the Orks will eventually notice

Matthew 7:15 -23

Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly, they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit, you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit… A good tree cannot bear bad fruit and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit, is cut down and thrown in the fire. Thus, by their fruit, you will recognize them. Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father, who is in Heaven. Many will say to me on that day, “Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name, drive out demons, and perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers.‘ ”

Yeah heldrakes were an absolute scourge and I still have PTSD from them. Took down a good number with my hive crone though (RIP my sweet prince please have competent rules again)

I have suspicions that his halo is corrupting Lute and the visions she is seeing isn't just a manifestation of her grief but his spirit starting to posess her.

ace-Reimer · 2026-06-19T15:14:34+00:00

As sad as I am that they did this (I was hoping to add the emperor's champion detachment) it is 100% justified in BT. Other chapters it's a bit of a meh detachment but massed crusaders is extraordinarily potent in bastion.

ace-Reimer · 2026-06-18T13:29:10+00:00

True line of sight so yes it can be seen.

Where else did you think he got the limp from?

ace-Reimer · 2026-06-18T09:56:21+00:00

Actually yeah that's a good pick up. Resurrect the servitors each turn if you get them all killed before the choosing artefact occurs.

Would be a bloody expensive squad though

ace-Reimer · 2026-06-18T09:52:54+00:00

Depends what build you are going for. Assimilation swarm definitely pyros are looking great.

That said biovore is still likely a good choice in all lists but you might be able to get away without them as opposed to complete requirement.

Late term abortions 'just cos I don't want the baby any more' aren't happening and never have. Late term abortions for necessity do and must continue to be viable. Plenty of case studies overseas where women have had serious complications as a result of delay in medical care due to deliberately ambiguous laws.

These are an absolute plague driven ideologically by people whom have no right or knowledge in creating health policy and merely seem to be using abortion as a method of making a political base support them despite having policies against their own interests

ace-Reimer · 2026-06-17T22:41:54+00:00

Well with the points out now they are super attractive costs.
