Maybe it's because I never got that second meltagun painted up... anyway, the Stormies in a Chimera tactic that Atr_127 mentioned is legit. Gives the enemy something to worry about in their home turf, keeping the gun line safe. You can also just go for a straight Scout move, going for a first/second turn melting frenzy.<br /><br />If you're interested in some more tactics with the Glory Boys (and enjoy shameless self promotion), check out my blog:<br />http://defendinghumanity.blogspot.com/2009/10/tactica-stormtrooper-part-i.html<br /><br />http://defendinghumanity.blogspot.com/2009/11/tactica-stormtrooper-part-ii.htmlMaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12478821172146809894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-47340891530922574952010-09-29T09:23:03.217-04:002010-09-29T09:23:03.217-04:00Yes, only to have his hoohaa smacked a turn later ...Yes, only to have his hoohaa smacked a turn later and though he did make a guard squad run in terror, he also died to shooting - the only time that has happened - what a disgraceful way for the Warmaster to die, but not to fear, the 14th Black Crusade began last night on my painting table and all will know the wrath of the Black Legion soon enough!TJ Atwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01304177224607153451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-42788948273303336412010-09-29T09:02:47.272-04:002010-09-29T09:02:47.272-04:00LMAO@ Old School

MUAHHAHAHAHA (IG tactics, what??)<br /><br />Also, I've wanted to play a themed vendetta/stormtrooper list ever since I read redemption corps. I just have so much else on my plate to do. <br /><br />Also, steve, you cheating bastard, tell me how exactly did creed help you mow down some berzerkers?! I hope you made them reroll cover saves and not took an extra shot.... You know its hard enough to convince people you're still a decent person even though you play guard that we guard players don't need your cheatiness!! :)Chris Vintonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02366710490951729022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-21652905703442917812010-09-29T07:55:38.178-04:002010-09-29T07:55:38.178-04:00an interesting fact is that if they take a chimera...an interesting fact is that if they take a chimera it also gains the scout rules so can outflank or make a scout move inside it. this works very well with scouting vets in valkyries for a lethal alpha strike.Atreideshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05304081312256836817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-15115215801177742612010-09-29T07:17:34.631-04:002010-09-29T07:17:34.631-04:00Welcome back LSS and great article!
