What is the best HQ for Space Marines in Warhammer 40k?
I play Warhammer 40k the tabletop game and I was just wondering What the best HQ is for Space Marines.
I hate to have to say it again, but “it depends”.
It depends on what sort of army you want to run against what sort of opponent. At points values of 1000 or below, a Captain is probably all you need against most opponents. You can take an special character and Chapter Tactics to suit your army. If you’re bolter-heavy, take Lysander or Kantor. If you’ve got a lot of flamers, meltas and thunder hammers, take Vulkan. If you like using jump packs and assault squads, go for Shrike. And if you want to max out on bike squads, then go for the Khan. If you’re more an all-round sort of army then you’re probably better off sticking to a conventional captain and using the extra points on a few more men or some funky wargear.
If you’re pushing up to 1500, then consider a second choice, such as a Chaplain or Librarian. I like to attach the former to my assault squad, but keep the latter in reserve for fighting Tyranid monstrous creatures.
Beyond 1500, you should be considering a Chapter Master. The investment of points is heavy, but the effectiveness of the orbital strike – even held purely as a psychological weapon – cannot be underestimated. This is the point at which a heavy-hitter like Calgar can be considered.
