College and Warhammer 40k

Well, these are two things that one doesn't normally say together, yet, it is the truth. I am going to college, and I will continue with Warhammer 40k, money and time or no. However, the one issue I will have is space, so I've been looking at different armies that fit close to my playstyle, that I like the looks of, are relatively small, and will be relatively easy to paint. So far, I'm looking at Destroyer+Monolith Necrons, Paladin Grey Knights/Lots o' Dreadnaughts Grey Knights, and Dark Angel Deathwing.

Black Templars HQ: Command Squads

Well, after the disappointing show by the terminator command squad, its time to move on to the more popular, and probably better more fitting normal command squad!

Black Templars HQ: Terminator Command Squads

Well, now we move on to the protection that the Black Templars provide for their commanders: Command Squads! But to start off, we will be going over the little seen Terminator Command Squad.

Black Templars HQ: Reclusiarch and Master of Sanctitiy

Continuing my review of the Black Templars Codex, we come to...the Chaplain! A warrior who epitomises death and hatred incarnate, these can be a formidable addition to any Black Templar army.

Black Templars HQ: Marshal and Castellan

Well, after 2 weeks of moving and vacation, its time to get back to the blog! This post will continue to go through the Black Templars codex, with a review of the Commander*!

Black Templar HQ: Emperor's Champion

Well, after looking over the Black Templar Rules, now its time to start on their codex entries! And where better to start than with the HQs? (This post will be relatively short, but it covers alot in that shortness!)

Black Templar Rules

Today, I'm going to look at some of the Black Templar's more interesting and unique army-wide rules.

Much Ado about an (old, but we don't mention that) Angry Marine

Well, today I'm going to look at some of the aspects of one of my brother's armies...The Black Templar! Having recently read Helsreach, I have to say that Black Templar are utter beasts. Not only do they do all kinds of awesome stuff in the book, but in regular 40k, who doesn't love assault terminators with twin lightning claws, furious charge, and prefered enemy? Anyway, I've been looking over the codex more thoroughly, and I have to say, being a 4th edition codex has its perks. Ld 10 from a marshal, cheap Typhoons, Min/Max squads of everything, and my most favorite, Power of the Machine Spirit Vindicators! Of course, there are also the downfalls, like marshals only being WS 5, none of them having grenades, and rather expensive anything that hasn't been FAQ'd. But hey, they can still be beasts! So, my next few posts will look further into the depths of the Black Templar, and hopefully surface with a competitive 4th edition codex army (I like being competitive, by the way)!
