1500 on the nose.

The Chaplains go in with the Crusader squads (duh). The Speeders deepstrike and pop tanks, then go about flaming everything. Now, I'm probably going a little overboard on the AT, but I don't have much experience with Vindicators as tankbusters, so I'm not sure as to their reliability in that area. I tend to prefer redundant units (I also tend to roll terribly at the worst moments).

I've heard good things about Grimaldus, but it seems like he would be better suited to sitting in the middle of 4 or more squads rather than 2.

Do I have enough troops for this point level?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217545/370337.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217545/370337.page GMT LST
give bolt pistol for another reclusarch (+1A for 1 pnt.)
give melta gun or flamer for crusaders sq.

my 2 cnt.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217545/370433.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217545/370433.page GMT
If you do not get first turn, my thoughts are you will lose one of your infantry squads turn one... and the other turn two. Vehicles because of armour 13 on the vindis might make it to turn 3.

You really gotta go one way or the other.

take one chappy and one marshal for LD 10 all around, two squads of 20 w/melta (go and take their objectives), and 4 squads of 10 w/plasmacannons (hold your objectives) if they are in cover, they can go to ground for the additional save then stand back up and run forward D6 when they pass their check(basically takeing zero negatives for the 3+cover)... fill in the rest with 3 small squads of termies w/tankhunting missiles (or whatever you want). It is very hard to beat at 1500pts. Add in grimaldus for even more fun.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217545/371058.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217545/371058.page GMT
With Black Templars, the standard approach for a player to take when constructing their list is to consider their Crusader Squads (just as Tactical Squads are to a generic Space Marine player) to be the mainstay of the list. "No duh," you probably think. Well, you'd be surprised how easy it is for a list to go from being primarily core units to tons of glitz and glamour in the form of support units and heavy hitters with nothing really to hold it all together at the base.

If you're taking Accept Any Challenge, the only benefit a Chaplain is going to give you is the extra 3" Righteous Zeal move. Granted, that is a major advantage, but when you increase the number of Initiates and Neophytes in an army from a modest 2 squads to a beefier 4, having the universal Ld10 coverage of a Marshal outweighs any advantage a single squad with a joined Reclusiarch has.

Hope that helps.

Also like above try the marshal and 1 chaplain as the EC is so similar. IMO take several crusader squads of just enough Neophytes to soak up bullets but don't over due it as they will drag you down in cc.

Also a cheap little tactic that I found is taking a bare bone inquisitor and bring along a vindicare assassin who can shoot your own units (spare Neophytes) to make them advance faster each turn.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217545/372414.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217545/372414.page GMT

To Corpsman:

In deed,it was "No model with psychic POWERS may be field as allies..."

So,an inquisitor with no psychic powers chosen for him is legal.

BTW,through my own experience...as a templar,you would have many chances...to see the difference between fearless and Ld10,in a shooting phase...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217545/373611.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/217545/373611.page GMT
That indeed opens up a nice window to include an Inquisitor Lord (with attendant Retinue) and an Eversor Assassin for a measly 150ish points.

Thanks for the correction.

The fact that Grimaldus does that makes the first list leagues better than the second.
