Everything is more expensive and their rules are horrible (bloody things getting jervanised!) . Of course unless your going ravenwing or deathwing, but if your gonna go deathwing you may as well go space wolves and have a wolf guard TDA army led by logan grimnar and jsut have them 'count' as, more efficient and way more entertaining.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270260/1194040.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270260/1194040.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270260/1194883.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270260/1194883.page GMT
DA used to have a clunky version of Stubborn rule. Last codex got rid of it.

Ravenwing & Deathwing were unique options that set them apart from vanilla marines, wolves and others.

DA were the first codex to get combat squads - first to get "free" grenades and bolt pistols. So they were still competitive before the latest SM codex.

DA also were at one point the only one that could access Plasma Cannons for tacticals.

With the new SM codex, improved machine spirit, reduced costs and extended troop capacity have made the DA a poor competitive choice. In addition the new biker captain and Khan have destroyed the uniqueness of the Ravenwing. The only hat the DA have to hang on are "real" combat chaplains and librarians, tough techmarines, multiple command squads with old apothecaries and the Deathwing.

I have DA army that I played through the end of 2nd ed, all of 3rd and 4th. But sadly it will collect dust until they get recodexed or they are doomed to become vanilla marines in robes.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270260/1195133.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/270260/1195133.page GMT
