Subject: DOW2 : How to use a Thunderhammer right......!
great cinematic footage.. does a SM justice with a thunderhammer....but he got 5 attacks i doubt that lol ... even on the charge.. heh 4 attacks most if he is chaptermaster or some other special character... That Ork didnt stand a chance. Makes me want to model more THs

i dont think space marines move that quick, if that was the case why (in the trailer for the 1st DOW) did all the space marines get pwnt, even a dreadnought by a bunch of boyz. whereas this video the commander/captain (i pressume) took down an ork warboss with lightning speed and a thunder hammer..
Cheers,
Gutteridge
but besides that, yeah pretty cool vid.

Meh, I thought it was pretty lame. A thunder hammer should inflict real damage, not just make people flinch and create bashing noises like something from Super Smash Bros.
To the OP: a vanilla chapter master can get 6 TH attacks on the charge.

How so? i did not see a banner anywhere near by... 3 base 1 for the charge... one for a Bolt pistol i guess... but that thing looked two handed....

If this was YMDC, I'd ask you to go read your codex, but that may be a little anal for this forum.
Okay:
3 base + 1 for 2 CCWs (the TH is one-handed as of 4th ed) + 1 for Terminator Honours + 1 for charging = 6 attacks.

I have an idea - why not export your newly discovered sphincteral liberation into YMDC? If others in there follow your lead it may eventually be a fit place for us normals.

I actually thought it was pretty neat. And who's to say Space Marines don't move that fast? I mean, with 400+ years of battle I wouldn't exactly aim to get some clean head-on hits with an Ork Warboss. That, and the Warboss rolling the meanest spree of 1's in cc.

A bizarre array of focusing mirrors and lenses turning my phrases into even more accurate clones of
So how fast are we talkin' bout here? Linebacker, runningback, wide receiver speeds? I always thought of marines as centers. But that may just be the terminators.
If a space marine can jump around like that, how about a Howling Banshee? If a SM Commander can move like that, then a Howling Banshee Exarch/SM Commander brawl would make for one heck of a dance fight!
Much prefer the more realistic <-(lol) DoW I opening sequence.

it's a "swirling melee". You're supposed to use your imagination.

show and tell! I can't imagine what a Warlock and an Avatar are doing in a subway station. Maybe it's the Webway?
