Melta range also means assault range!

Actually, ironically, I often don't even shoot before charging for that specific reason. Most people I play are smart enough to remove models from the front of the line where I want to charge, and in doing so, I quickly learned that I can deny myself the charge by shooting first. (not to mention that you can choose to fail your morale checks).

SM don't need stubborn.

If you want stubborn add Pedro, but I'm not going to vote for Pedro.

Pedro is a liability IMO, combat tactics+ATSKNF>stubborn+ATSKNF.

ATSKNF is only at half it's potential without combat tactics.

Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail, and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, but refuse. They cling to the realm, or love, or the gods…illusions. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is, but they’ll never know this. Not until it’s too late.

To be honest, if you playing vanilla marines, ATSKNF shouldnt really factor into many assaults, as it should be a balance of shooting and assault, so you'd reduce numbers enough to almost guarentee a win in assault. I know nothings guarenteed, and you can always get assaulted my massive hordes and theres not a lot you can do.

Fearless is a similar situation, fearless unit are generally CC monsters, and if they could walk away from being out matched, then they would just overpower everyone.

Just because I don't care, Doesn't mean I don't understand!

I'm both orderly and rational. I value control, information, and order. I love structure and hierarchy, and will actively use whatever power or knowledge I have to maintain it. At best, I am lawful and insightful; at worst, I am bureaucratic and tyrannical.
