What should I add/take away to make my Space Marine Army Better?
Okay so i collect ultramarines, heres what i have so far
-3 tactical squads (randomly were given to me)
-2 scout squads (one with snipers, other is normal)
-1 terminator squad
-Captain Sicarius (limited edition with lightning claws)
-Chief Librarian Tigurius
-2 librarians
-I know I need some vehicles, but which ones. Also any other things i need to add/take away?
Hi,
I have been collecting Space Marines for a long time now. I have a fairly large army (at least 4,000-5,000 pts, I haven’t counted recently). This is what I think you should get:
EDIT: You need the 5th edition Codex to understand some of this.
First off, I see a rather large potential flaw in your force selection; you don’t have any assault marines! Buy these ASAP. If you have the bits, convert the assault marines into a Vanguard Assault Squad, which are assault marines with power weapons and melta bombs.
1. No Space Marine army is truly complete without a Land Raider of some description. Although Raiders are fairly expensive (both money-wise and points), the 14 all-around and the variety of weaponry (Standard, Redeemer, Crusader etc.) really makes it the all-around assault tank.
You should buy one of the three, depending on who you fight the most (e.g. what armies do your friends/regular opponents collect?)
If you’re into firepower and not invincible armour, I would suggest purchasing one or two Predator tanks instead (three lascannons instead of two)
Oh, and a WHIRLWIND.
2. You don’t need that many Librarians! You should have Tigurius, and maybe one other when you can’t afford to spend a massive amount of points on special characters.
3. Terminators. Maybe another squad, depending on how you use them. I personally use terminator squads to deep-strike and take out my opponent’s fancy tank/HQ etc. (I have 4 terminator squads if you count Gray Knights)
4. Marines. You need at least one more tactical squad, or perhaps a squad of Gray Knights (you can take up to two troops choices as Allies from Inquisition).
5. You should get a sternguard squad, as well as a drop pod to go with them. Deep-strike right beside the enemy’s armoured infantry or dug-in positions and use specialised ammunition to destroy anything in your way.
6. You want a Chapter Master. Orbital Bombardments kick a*s. (Ordanance blast template, Strength 10 AP 1)
7. If you ever think you’re going to be fighting a demon army, get a Land Speeder Storm. Move the land speeder up so that your opponent can’t use chaos icons or teleport homers etc.
8. Can scouts still take Missile Launchers? They could in the fourth edition Codex… I’m not sure, I’ll have to check that.
This is A LOT of stuff. Like, $350 worth. Thing is, you don’t need a perfect army to play. You might also want to consider purchasing a Thunderfire Cannon – that’s the only Space Marine unit that I don’t currently have, but it seems quite effective.
Don’t buy it all at once
