God of War: MArneus Calgar can choose whether to pass or fail any Morale check he is called upon to make. Whilst Calgar is on the table, all units with the Combat Tactics special rule can also choose whether to pass or fail any Morale check they are called upon to take.

Chapter Tactics: If you include (Special character) then all units in your army exchange (or lose) the Combat Tactics special rule for (listed benefit). If more than one character in your army has the Chapter Tactics rule, you must choose which version will apply.

Now correct me if I'm wrong, but this seems to mean that you can't take Marneus with a Special Character from a different chapter and use GoW 'universally'; The other character's Chapter Tactics rule takes precedence.

Am I missing something?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/401446.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/401446.page GMT Chapter Tactics and Marneus CT-replacing character = no GoW for anyone, since Marneus depends on Combat Tactics to get the effect of his own ability.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/401449.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/401449.page GMT Chapter Tactics and Marneus http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/401499.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/401499.page GMT Chapter Tactics and Marneus http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/401919.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/401919.page GMT Chapter Tactics and Marneus
Anyway, Marneus is not unstoppable. There're some interesting weaknesses, like this one.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/401943.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/401943.page GMT Chapter Tactics and Marneus
If your opponent is using Marneus AND he is using another special character:

Is the game an Apocalypse game? If "Yes" then make up any old house rule you want to resolve the situation. It's Apocalypse so it doesn't matter.

If "no" then your opponent is a D-bag for using 2 legendary chapter masters in a regular game of 40k. Resolve the situation by finding someone else to play against. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/401970.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/401970.page GMT Chapter Tactics and Marneus
That cost a lot of points?

Maybe a better option would be "Play them anyway and beat them, showing them what a points sink 2 Special Characters are"?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/402003.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/402003.page GMT Chapter Tactics and Marneus ICs... like a Honor Guard all tricked out with relic blades, or the new Typhoons, or Sternguard.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/402009.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/402009.page GMT Chapter Tactics and Marneus http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/402022.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/402022.page GMT Chapter Tactics and Marneus http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/402094.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/402094.page GMT Chapter Tactics and Marneus

Actually re-read Marneus. He does not require Combat Tactics to use GoW. He just requires other units to have CT so he can grant his deity status to them as well.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/402572.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/402572.page GMT Chapter Tactics and Marneus http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/402864.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/219838/402864.page GMT
