Stalwart Ultramarine Tactical Marine
North

I posted this back on B&C.
For horde clearing:
Captain on a bike. Give him the Vengeance of Ultramar relic. Str 4 rapid fire 4 rerolling wounds against anything that isn't a vehicle. So 8 shots reroll wound and 1s and with scions/tactics you will pretty much always get -1 ap. take the imperiums' sword trait for +1 attack +1 S. Use the the Ultra strat allowing another trait. Take the paragon trait. now your results of six will generate mortal wounds. ensure you have a melee weapon. I'm thinking a lightning claw to reroll wounds.
So move to charge range. Shoot 8, rerolling 1s and wounds. 6s cause mortal wounds. then 4 normal shots rerolling 1s, wounds of 6 casue mortal wounds. then charge with 5 attacks str 5 base -2 to armour rerolling wounds with 6s causing mortal wounds.
Then for 3 CP fight again.
Potentially you get 12 shots, rerolling 1s, 8 reroll wounds, 4 normal, everything causes mortals on 6s.
Then on the the charge you could get10 str 5 attacks rerolling 1s to hit, re-roll wounds and mortal wounds on 6s.
then add whatever flavour of chaplains, librarians etc with j-packs to assist/buff (ie other rerolls and whatever variety of strats to help (I haven't figured out the full combos yet)
A nasty monster. Great for non vehicles but even still you could still put the hurt on vehicles.
***EDIT*** forgot to add the new shock assault rule so add an attack to that mess. Removed mantra of str canticle as I reread it and it only applies to chaplains (exhortation of rage could work though)

Wow, so for only...let's see, roughly 150 points, a relic, and 3CP I could get a space marine captain who kills a whole guard squad in just one turn?

"Got you, Yugi! Your Rubric Marines can't fall back because I have declared the tertiary kaptaris ka'tah stance two, after the secondary dacatarai ka'tah last turn!"
"So you think, Kaiba! I declared my Thousand Sons the cult of Duplicity, which means all my psykers have access to the Sorcerous Facade power! Furthermore I will spend 8 Cabal Points to invoke Cabbalistic Focus, causing the rubrics to appear behind your custodes! The Vengeance for the Wronged and Sorcerous Fullisade stratagems along with the Malefic Maelstrom infernal pact evoked earlier in the command phase allows me to double their firepower, letting me wound on 2s and 3s!"
"you think it is you who has gotten me, yugi, but it is I who have gotten you! I declare the ever-vigilant stratagem to attack your rubrics with my custodes' ranged weapons, which with the new codex are now DAMAGE 2!!"
"...which leads you straight into my trap, Kaiba, you see I now declare the stratagem Implacable Automata, reducing all damage from your attacks by 1 and triggering my All is Dust special rule!" |

Not much special about this guy. Don't even need to be ultramarines to do it.
Regular captain on bike, equip with primarchs wrath. Thats 4 str 5 ap-1 2dmg and 4 str 4 ap 0 1dmg. Thats 8 shots off of him. Give him a chainsword and then charge for another 6 attacks? If that doesnt clear screens for much less i don't know what would.
Dont get me wrong, if i was taking vengeance of ultimar it would go on a bike or a terminator for that always rapid fire goodness. But i think your putting too much into someone for so simple a job.

Just switch to tactical doctrine and you are always firing max shots. Give this to a techmarine. BS2+ and just chuck the dakka next to a redemptor dread. Automatically Appended Next Post: Nope

You can with the Exmplar of the Chapter Stratagem, it lets your Warlord generate an extra WLT that has to be from the Ultramarines table.
