First of all im very VERY new to this Amazing game , December last year me and my wife is crazy about heroscape and i had the game up and a friend came by and looked at it asked a couple of questions and i said the only problem with it is that i am missing depth in the game. He explained warhammer 40k and about 20 days has past and i have an 40k army Ultramarines LOVE IT

So back to the topic !
I have been drooling over Forgeworld units so i would gladly get some suggestion on any ultramarine / spacemarine unit i can have in my army
Im looking for something worth its points , ive heard some rumours that alot of units from FW is a waste of points in army but there must be a MUST HAVE broken unit from FW that i can add for my army , maybe not a tournament superhero but casual strong that will kickass

Leviathan Dreadnoughts are strong, but honestly just look at FW's site and pick something you like the look of :-)

Honestly I don't think there are many "dud" Forge World units. Just pick something you really like the look of and go for it.

Were you eyeballing any particular items? There are ton of options out there for marine stuff from FW.

Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.

Leviathan Dreadnaughts are certainly quite strong, though personally I've got a soft spot for the Contemptor (it feels tough/scary in a way that the ordinary boxnaughts just don't).

From my experience on the tabletop I can also recommend the Fire Raptor, it's a tremendously cost-effective source of guns (420pts and you get around four Devastator squads' worth of hitting power), with PotMS for accuracy, a good mix of volume and strength, and the ranges and durability conspire to make it pretty annoying to get rid of.

Alternately get FW Guilliman and use Guilliman's rules with a model that doesn't look like a bloated Thousand Son whose face has shrunk in the wash.

Balanced Game: Noun. A game in which all options and choices are worth using.
