Or, hell - make up your OWN chapter!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254167/937284.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254167/937284.page GMT Re:Salamanders, Imperial Fists, White Scars... So many options...
I just wanted my army to reflect my play style. I run a razor heavy/troop heavy list with an Imperial fist version of shrike (called him Strike 'cause i'm lame...)

My suggestion is to find your play style, and then find the army that fits it fluff wise if that matters to you. If not, paint them pink and run pedro and Kahn...it doesn't matter.

Some fluff suggestions though:

Imperial fists: defense and hard hitting, I use mostly use razor backs with split tac squads for static back line defense, but I use shrike for fleeting infiltrating assault squads and fleeting assault termies. So i'm not a "true" imp. fist cause i think Lysander is a bit overpriced.

Crimson fists: You like sternguard, yes you do! Similar play style to imperial (they are imperial second founding)

Ravenguard: You like assault squads and drop pods, lots of drop pods

Salamanders: You like melta guns and flamers in all forms. I suggest a master of forge to go with that and a side of drop pod Ironclads with dropping heavy dreds for dessert.

White Scars: Bikes are a girl's best friend. Bike everything. this is a very fun list to play with the mobility and higher toughness, but shines at higher points levels

Ultramarines: If you like to be everybody else, then do so. I don't knock these guys though, you can mix any troops anyway you want and it's still fluffy. Lots of bonus characters to if you like the internal support options.

Iron Hands: Land Raider spam, enough said.

Just about everyone else is a variation of those. I'm sure there are others that I have left out, hopefully someone can chime in to different play styles and what chapters reflect those tactics.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254167/937299.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254167/937299.page GMT Salamanders, Imperial Fists, White Scars...

Salamanders, White scars, Imperial fists and Raven guard are all fluffy chapters.

I would go with White scars.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254167/962831.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254167/962831.page GMT Salamanders, Imperial Fists, White Scars... So many options...

Some ointment to ease that pain:

No offence, but it's a lot easier to just use Iyanden Darksun or even Macharius Solar Orange as a base with some Golden Yellow over the top.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254167/963484.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254167/963484.page GMT Salamanders, Imperial Fists, White Scars...

Its a better idea to post comments about painting and modeling threads like this in the threads themselves, rather than trying to hijack a thread where it isnt relevant in the tactics forum.

@OP:

If you're looking to just enjoy the game as a general hobbyist then pick the army and paint scheme that you want to play and paint. It will be much more satisfying for you like that.

If you want to win at tournaments, paint scheme doesnt matter as much and you will want to run vulkan because he is so powerful..]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254167/963647.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/254167/963647.page GMT Salamanders, Imperial Fists, White Scars...
