The Terminators are nigh indestructible so they just take advantage of Fleet and use it to advance across the battlefield. Hell, you can even teleport a squad to the enemy lines if you want to flush your opponent out of hiding.

Tac squad in the Rhino just uses it to advance behind Terminators who will grant the vehicle a permanent cover save. I'm not even sure it's necessary considering they can just march behind the termies to get 4+ cover. Scouts infiltrate into cover and either try to thin hordes or take out Rhinos/skimmers.

Anyone else think this might be tough to beat? It's retardedly hard to score KPs against. Hordes, particularly Orks, seem like they would be the toughest to beat, but any elite lists will just dominated by the 25 fast-moving, hard-as-nails termies. I guess it also has no way to deal with Land Raiders, which is admittedly a problem.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/392640.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/392640.page GMT Shrike Terminator Horde http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/392649.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/392649.page GMT Shrike Terminator Horde
1/6 to hit
1/6 to glance
1/3 for weapon destroyed or immobilized

The above needs to happen 6 times in order to remove all 4 weapons (the multi-melta upgrade is a no-brainer), immobilize, then get another immobilization or weapon destroyed result.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/392656.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/392656.page GMT Shrike Terminator Horde MM and meltaguns to help with your anti tank problem.

Fleet the Terminators forward and advance the tactical squads to claim objectives. Keep the one scout squad in the back to claim your own objective.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/392686.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/392686.page GMT Shrike Terminator Horde http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/392739.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/392739.page GMT Shrike Terminator Horde

What? Your statement makes no sense to me. It's like saying "Volcano cannons are nothing special. Titans can die." Explain.

Personally I like it. It's gutsy. It's unique. If your opponent tailors a list to kill you, it's lights out, but who honestly plays with that many Wraithguard or Last Chancer Plasma-Spam Guard anyway? And if you meet them, well, just take heart knowing the Wraithguard were bought in place of a college education, and the Last Chancers will be obsolete come 2009.

i dont see how spamming terminators is unique or gutsy. they are one of the best units in the 40k game hows that gutsy?, and the only thing unique about it is that someone spent $250 just on the terminators to make this list.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/393127.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/393127.page GMT Shrike Terminator Horde http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/393129.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/393129.page GMT Shrike Terminator Horde tac marines.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/393508.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219194/393508.page GMT
