Asmondai DarkElf27 Sgt_OBrien Van Evok Sgt_OBrien Lady Blodwynn Logan Wing, now why didn't I think of that? ninja It's the only terminator army where you can equip each different terminator completely differently. xd That'll teach those jerks at tournaments who want to read your army list the whole match! Give them a reason too! look at the GK, Draigowing they can get like four different nemesis force weapons, master crafted or not, and 3 different heavy weapons in 2 per 5 models ratio - again possibly master crafted (unless incinerator), plus possibly banner :3 I suppose they turn out about the same, but you can do some crazy s**t with Woofs. Such as taking a squad with storm shields and storm bolters. xD Confused, I don't see the advantage. Don't Storm Shields only provide Invuls in assaults? No, storm shields now a days grands a 3+ invul save all the time, with the exception of rules that deny it.
That is why Deathwings/Blood Angels owns with StormShield + FeelNoPain rule. :pOh, well that's a definite game changer then. xp Toss a couple assault cannons in there, and that's a very durable unit putting out a ridiculous amount of mid-strength fire.

Well, that's significantly more balanced at least. I can see min-maxing termies just to put assault cannons on the field if you could get 2 per 5 termies.

DarkElf27 Oh, well that's a definite game changer then. xp Toss a couple assault cannons in there, and that's a very durable unit putting out a ridiculous amount of mid-strength fire. Won´t work on most chapters, so far Deathwings are the only unit that has Norm-Termies and Assault-Termies gear options in a one unit. But even then it´s either Assault-Cannon+Powerfist OR TH+SS. And it´s only for the wielder that gains the inv-save, which really leaves the assault cannon being either targeted with marksman-rule or with wound allocation. :-/
Not the mention the DW are only 5men units, they can only have 1 assault-cannon/heavyflamer/cyclone ML. @.@

Nope, unless there is a very obscure or very, very, very old school character that has such option. <.< CM Belial only has an option of SB+MCpower sword or TH+SS, and all independed character (as far as I know) don´t have an Assault Cannon as a choosable option in their wargear.
Althou... DA´s Company Master can have PlasmaPis, SB, Pair of LC and Jump-pack and be a legal model. :-/ Weird ain´t it?

It was one of the last jobs Jervis did before they put him full-time on Standard Bearer IIRC.
