But You're a confusing beast. Are you CC, a tank commander, what? Also, the Obsidian sword seems too convoluted, and you'd only get the benefits of either the hammer or the sword in each assault phase.

I'd say either a tank commander chronus or pask style, or a CC dude (although we have quite a few of those already). Both just seems to be OTT.

In combat you can either have the sword and its powers/abilities or the lump hammer and the pistol combined for an extra attack and the hammers abilities.

Thanks for the feed back-ill try to balance myself out........here goes::::::::

master of ordinance............pts 75-110(im not sure)

WS B S T W I A LD S
5 6 3 5 3 6 2 8 4+/4++

type: infantry

Equipment

Trench coat
Everyone knows people who wear trench coats are infalably awsome and always seem to walk away from the vary worst of battles with only a scratch. The trench coat gives master of ordinance a 4+ save and a 4+ invunerable save already included in the profile. this extends to any vehicle he is in.

2.5LB lump hammer
master of ordinances trusty lumphammer this has seen him through many skirmishes with chavs
The lump hammer gives master of ordinance +2 strength and always stuns vehicles in close combat.

Obsidian power sword
This is a 2 handed sword based on a bastard sword and is so dark is rumored to be made of pure nothingness. when activated red lightning crackles over it encageing the void-black blade in a prison of infernal energy.
The obsidian sword is a power weapon that gives master of ordinance Rending and Instant Death. In adidition every time someone hits master of ordinance in CC then roll a dice. I f you roll higher than the opponents to hit roll then it is parried and dosnt hit. The sword requires 2 hands so may not be used with a pistol or the lump hammer

Plasma pistol
master of ordinances plasma pistol is phased to give a slightly higher rate of fire.
R12" S7 AP2 pistol 2 gets hot

Special rules

Fleet

FNP

Vampire
master of ordinance is a vampire.
For every wound master of ordinance inflicts in CC he regains 1 wound lost earlyer in the battle. this cannot take him beyond his starting total.

Panzer Ace
master of ordinance may choose to take over a freindly vehicle if he is within 2" of it. master of ordinance may leave his vehicle if he can pass an LD check. If he does so he counts as an IC. If a vehicle is destroyed while master of ordnance is in it he automaticaly ejects. If the vehicle is assaulted or is in base to base contact with an enemy model/unit in the assault phase then master of ordinance may fight them. The opposing player can decide to direct his attacks either at the tank or at master of ordinance.

Treadhead fanatic
If master of ordinance is not in a tank then he must pass an LD check or head for the nearest freindly tank. he may shoot but must spend his moving phase moveing towards the tank.


Apocalypse formation

master of ordinances grand panzer host............. 250+models

composition

1 super heavy tank with master of ordinance-this is the command tank

0+super heavy tanks

10+ tanks chosen from the imperial guard codex and imperial armour books(must be imperial guard tanks)

0-20 non guard tanks chosen from other codexs and imperial armour books(must be vehicle type-tank not skimmers walkers flyers ect)


Special rules

Earth tremble
Such is the mighty grinding of treads from so many combined tanks that the very earth trembles.
All units within 12" of the command tank except for the units in the grand panzer host count as in difficult terrain. For each tank in the host within 12" add 1" to the range and for each superheavy add a number of inches equal to its starting structure points to the range.

Supreme firepower
master of ordinance can order all of his vehicles to concentrate there fire on one area essentialy obliterating all things caught in the tremendous blast.
This is a special attack that may only be used if there are atleast 10 tanks(super heavys count as a number of tanks equal to there starting structure points) plus the command tank with master of ordinance in it. choose a point within LOS and of master of ordinance`s command tank and within range of all contributing tanks. The attack has the following profile:

R see above SD AP1 Ordnance 1 10" blast*

* For each contributing tank above the minimal add 1" to the blast range. super heavys count as a number of tanks equal to there starting stucture points.

Wave of armour
The tanks in the Grand Host move together in a wave of steel plate and roaring engines
The tanks in the grand host must stay within 6" of another tank from the Host and must stay within 24" of the command tank.


There you have it! feel free to make any minor changes you wish and correct any spelling mistakes/make it easyer to understand but please try to stick in with the origonal idealism of it and please dont make any major or unescasery changes.

Uh huh.
Ok, got it.
Which FO slot though?
HQ or heavy?

Heavy and/or dedicated transport.

Hmmm,
Can we make it Apoc only, considering how its an upgrade to a heavy vehicle?

Just put it in. We'll figure out apoc later.

I still like my own rules

I'm an Upgrade for the CRASSUS ARMOURED ASSAULT TRANSPORT.

Ok, I already made the apocalypse supplement, complete with purplefood.

Sorry Orkeater, we done

Sounds legit.

A gargantuan creature with a 0" small blast template weapon.

Here's what i think the basic infantry unit should be:

Dakkaite thread: 7 pts per model

composition: 3-30 Dakkaites
Dakkaite:
WS:3 BS:3 S:3 T:3 A:1 W:1 I:3 Ld:7 Sv:4+
Original Poster:

OP threads have the Preferred Enemy special rule when fighting Grey Knights, Space Wolves and Imperial Guard.

The thread may be upgraded to a Mat Ward Hate Thread for ? points. Mat Ward Hate Threads have the PE special rule when fighting GKs, Necrons and Blood Angels.

The thread may be joined by a Moderator for ? points.

WS: 3 BS: 3 S: 3 T: 3 W: 1 A: 2 Ld: 7 I: 3 Sv: 4+

Special rules:

Haters Gonna Hate: Hater squads have the Preferred Enemy special rule. Also, at the beginning of the game, Haters choose one enemy unit. The Haters may re-roll failed To Wound rolls against that unit.

Oh you could use me as an Apocalypse unit.

I think this thread as far as entries goes needs to be locked. Communication should pass between those interested in the final formatting of the codex.

Just chiming in, I've read the codex over a few times..

Gonna keep it brief until I have time for a more in-depth write up.

I get that this codex is all a bit of silly fun but some of the stuff in there is just ridiculous. I'd prefer a codex that was actually balanced and reasonable for normal play, rather than all the silliness and wishlisting we have rolled into one.

So, the revised codex Dakkadakka? Sounds good to me. We'll take it in for moderating (but then, i thought OP ideas were meant to be eliminated by those looking at the entries, save for apoc style things (E.G. Legoburner))

Just wondering, do we have a videogamer dakkanaut profile/rules already?


Anyway, I have an upgrade for haters

An entire Hater unit may be upgraded to a 6th-Ed-Hater Unit for + 20 pts per model
