    Burning Vengeance is pretty hilarious, thematically.

    Out comes a squads of flamer marines and then just abso-fucking-lutely turns everyone into ash while yelling praise to the Emperor.

      Except they use promethium or something like that and fire was always very deadly against almost everything. Just ask how well tanks do against molotovs and why they avoid city warfare or how's the temperature inside a metal tincan when it's covered in flames. (or how easy it is to breathe when fire uses 100% of air around it to saturate the flames)

    Another unit I find interesting here is the Brutalis Dreadnought. It is not a transport, but it carries quite a threatening twin-linked Multi-melta that hits on a 3+ natively and still remains a 4+ hit during combat, as well as a rapid-fire 3 heavy stubber that is also twin-linked. You will still want to try to facilitate charge with the Brutalis, but it is a fire platform that really wants to get into close-range.

    Blood angels can make great use out of a lot of this. The transports strats will go a little under utilized but having an impulsor or a land raider full of something dangerous could be really strong to mix into to a standard BA type list. The +1 to wound strat will be very nice for a lot of melee options and our inferno pistols.

    I think Vulkan, a LRR with 6 Aggressors + Captain and Repulsor with 6 Eradicators will be mainstays of this detachment. Other than that there’s plenty of honorable mentions: Adrax + BGV, Infernus in Drop Pod, Apothecary + Hellblasters in Repulsor/Impulsor. As well as the obvious best choice of using Burning Vengeance to drop a Redemptor if they shoot your Stormraven.

    A captain and 9 Infernus Marines in another.
    640 points in total - save up 2cp and then drop the pods nearby to two units (or more) that you need deleting.
    Vulkan squad fires 9d6 flamers autohitting, 2cp dev wounds stratagem rerolling all flamer Wounds. Second drop pod has the captain do it again for free but without the reroll Wounds.

      It's absolutely 10000% going to be Russ, alongside Fulgrim. Wolves and Emperor's Children are both due a refresh. Won't be til late in the edition though, at a guess
      After that, given that Abaddon and Vashtorr are messing about in the Webway I could see The Khan being possible, although given that BA will be the last of the divergent Legions without a big Primarch centerpiece, I'd imagine they'll do something with Sanguinius before they start hitting the others. Although my guess is it'll be some big upgraded form of the Sanguinor rather than Sanguinius himself

    Stratagem Burning Vengeance is a false Battle Tactic, a Captain cannot be attached to a Transport and thus cannot make it free.
    Impulsor with Infernus Marines for drive by burning fun, great to pick up objectives.
    Forgot about Vindicators, that extra speed helps them out a ton.
    I have a fun list that I was running before that I slightly tweaked when the Codex overviews dropped:
    Captain in Gravis Armor - Relic Fist
    Aggressor Squad - 6-man - Flamestorm Gauntlets
    Inceptor Squad - 6-man - Plasma Exterminators
    2x Infernus Squads - 5-man
    Brutalis Dreadnought - Brutalis Talons, Twin Multi-Melta
    2x Gladiator Lancer - free upgrades
    Land Raider Redeemer - free upgrades
    2x Vindicator - free upgrades
    2x Impulsor - Shield Dome - free upgrades
    Assuming points online are the correct value Forged in Battle on the Captain.

    So correct me if I'm wrong but would assault on all ranged weapons mean with my old Tactical squads I can move and fire with missile launchers or a Lascannon? Sorry if its obvious but the last time I played was 3rd and 4th and that seems stupidly good and broken to me in a good way. Was going to strip and repaint my old models which are painted as Salamanders anyway.

    it's strong BUT there is always the weakness of range to be efficient (that's why it's balance).
    The stronger detachment (and by far) is the anvil siege force because they have zero weakness and his buff is more powerfull than +1S at 12 inches.

    Does this detachment make assault centurions viable? Gaining assault on those big bolters and twinned flamers/meltas seems great along with +1S. On top of 3 of them fitting in all flavors land raider, that feels like a terrifying threat range for the big guys. Or are aggressors, eradicators, and devastators just more efficient?

    • @stuartbanana5083

      I think the others are more efficient, especially since Aggressors and friends can get character support.

    • @tajj7
      @tajj7 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Think Eradicators and Aggressors can out damage them a lot on the shooting. Eradicators also have the built in re-rolls against monsters or vehicles. Also points, Aggressors are 200 for 6, Eradicators 190 for 6, Cents are 300 for 6, even with the Captain the Aggressor blob is 280 and you are talking 6D6+6 flamer shots, with AP1 (if closest target) at S5, and free dev wounds with the Captain, that you can re-roll because of twin linked. Plus then you still have the grenade launchers for a load of S5, AP1 shots with blast. Centurions just aren't coming close.

      @TheVerruckMan 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's only an issue if you're trying to fit them in a regular Land Raider, which only has a transport capacity of 12 models. However the Land Raider Redeemer and Land Raider Crusader can hold 14 and 16 models in them respectively, so even with gravis models taking up two slots a piece, that's still enough room for six aggressors and a captain to fit in there. Hell, the Crusader is even able to fit an Apothacary Biologis in there too if you really want. And considering how the flamers on the Crusader already synergize well with the Firestorm detachment... well, I think we can all do the math there.

    • @thelonewolf9866
      @thelonewolf9866 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      A Land Raider Redeemer has a 14 troop transport capacity. A gravis armor model takes up 2 slots so that makes max 7 gravis models. 6 Aggressors & 1 captain can fit in the vehicle. So it all checks out :)

      So they would advance, rerolling the advance roll (I miss the auto 6) get within 12 and the flamers/hb would have plus one strength as would storm bolter and if fired within 12 the Hunter killer Missile. They are a great choice, probably 2, maybe 3. Just got to be careful of having too many tanks as it will go against you when the enemy takes bring it down

    You know…….I don’t think we put enough emphasis on the DARK side of math. To roll one 6 on a D6 is 1/6. To roll one 6 on 2 D6 is a higher probability, while rolling 2 6s on 2 D6 is a lower probability. You have roughly, a 50% chance to get a 6 on 4 dice. The odds are more like 1/1296 for rolling 4 6s on 4 dice. Probability is fickle and you COULD roll what you want time and time again……but the odds on paper will never be appealing IMO.
    Should this be icing on the cake, or the cake itself?

    For the re-embarkation strat, there doesn't seem to be anything preventing a different unit from entering a transport that another unit exited from.
    So, theoretically: Unit A and a transport both move. Unit A remains 6" behind the transport. Unit B exits the transport. Unit A gets 6" of bonus movement by using this stratagem to embark into the transport.

    100$ says the detachment gets nerfed within the month...Mark my words, they'll change immolation protocols so that it's not a battle tactic strat. I'm calling it right here...Documented proof. That being said I feel like eliminators in impulsors would be a sleeper hit...3 strength 10 las fusil shots with +1 to wound while being safe inside a tank would be pretty crazy I think. You wouldn't get dev. wound for standing still, but for what you get instead, I think it's a fair trade.
