I've decided to play Black Templars, so here goes my list:

Emperor's champion

10 man crusader squad
power weapon, flamer
Sword brother with lightning claw

10 man crusader squad
power weapon, flamer
sword brother with lightning claw

7 assault terminators
4 TH/SS

7 man sternguard
1 combi-flamer, 2 combi-meltas, 1 multi-melta

predator
heavy bolters

whirlwind

2 rhinos

land raider crusader
extra armor, multi-melta

The crusader squads go in the rhinos, and the EC and terminators go in the LRC. Thanks for any feedback!

Is this using the new SM codex??

**mrbossman**

Yes

**ChaosCrusader**

Ok, I have not yet seen the new dex but it looks like a strong build to me. Having a landraider puts you at an advantage right away as nobody seems to bring S9+ weapons any more...
The sternguard could do with a drop pod tho, or even drop them for bikes with power weapons to get that first smash into your enemy with the rest just a turn behind.

**astro_nomicon**

I believe the sword brethren can take combi-weps? If so I'd definitely consider finding points for that

**phatonic**

So the Emperor's champion can be taken as a warlord now?... sweet jebus.

**hyv3mynd**

Sternguard on foot would be the weak link. Make points for a rhino or drop pod IMO.

**A GumyBear**

I don't really like the MM in the SG squad, if on foot it hinders their movement since it will have to snapshot and since it is a mid ranged weapon you will often be having to move to get in range. If you put it in a pod you will end up having to snapshot anyway once you disembark

**mrbossman**

Thanks for the replies. I'm dropping the MM in the sternguard, giving the vet sergeants combi-flamers, and dropping one of the power weapons in the crusader squads so I can get a rhino for the sternguard
