Asmondai -xAngel of Redemptionx- Not true for the BT, they can have a five man crusader squad and give it special weapons in Addition to heavy weapons (the only thing i'd bother giving them is a flamer, then give everyone else a CQB loadout to maximize the number of attacks i can get, THEN have them take a Crusader as a dedicated transport) Edit: consolidated post Yes, and same is with DA´s and BA´s, but we are talking about SM codex. Unless he was referring to another codex, in which case I apoligie.yeah, but meh, all are space marines technically just different codexes.

funnily enough, I've met a BT player recently who has bragged about having last minimax squad in the marine community... which btw is so wrong considering BT penchant for close combat lol

Asmondai RevlinHeartsblood Anyways, tldr; Can i add a flamer to a five man squad of space marines? If it´s a 5 men squad, then no. You need 10 men squad not only to get a heavy weapon, but "special" weapon aswell now a days. So says the codex and I quote:
"If the squad numbers 10 models, one SM may replace his boltgun with one of the following: Flamer Plasmagun Meltagun
Unless you we´re asking to clarify the "combat squad" rule, then yes, you can split the 10 model squad to any combination of 2 5 model squads, aslong it has 5 models.Caleidah Yup. The separation is at five and ten men. You should be able to take a second special weapon at ten men as well. At least, that's how Chaos works. not sure if it's the same for Marines. No, it doesn´t work like that. You build a fixed unit of 10 men with 1 special weapon and 1 heavy weapon, then choose before deployment to split them to 5 men squads. There is never an option to get a second special weapon in Tactical squad.RevlinHeartsblood By the looks of it, if i pick up another commander to replace my current captain for a master, i wont be able to retinue the command squad i currently have yes? Indeed, because Chapter Master only allows Honor Guards to be taken and only Captains allows Command Squads to be taken.urg, that kinda blows... alright, so now ill have to pick up a commander, honor guard, AND another tact squad sad thanks for the clarification Asmondai

Might scrounge a few models to use...somehow. Being a Chaos player makes me jealous of those. Might have to add spikes and such and make some badass Chosen.

Um...I've got a fluff question: Is there a known Space Marine chapter guarding the Labyrinthine of Mars? I kinda want to get back into 40k with a Space Marine chapter that's basically calling themselves "The Emperor's Shield", and having that as a part of the fluff behind them.
Mind the horrible spelling, I think I screwed up spell check!

AFAIK Mars is completely run by Adeptus Mechanicus - no marines allowed save trainee techmarines.

Van Evok AFAIK Mars is completely run by Adeptus Mechanicus - no marines allowed save trainee techmarines. Yup. That said, there's nothing to stop you from making a very Ad Mech oriented Marine force. Put all of your squads in Rhinos or Razorbacks, Master of the Forge for HQ, lots of Dreads and Techmarines.
