<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Possessed Marines 6th Edition"]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/69.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Possessed Marines 6th Edition 6th edition greatly crunches them up but I'm still not convinced cuz ya know how RL can sometimes greatly differ to books.

Theres also the fact that I only got 6 of them, hardly worth a rhino, and my elite section are sorta already filled with berzerkers, hellbrutes and (soon to be after I'm done converting them) plague marines/thousand sons/noise marines.
So should I disassemble them and use their bitz to spice up my CSM army or should I keep them for the lolz. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5055952.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5055952.page GMT Possessed Marines 6th Edition http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5055991.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5055991.page GMT Possessed Marines 6th Edition
To put it simply, in the shooty edition of 40k, you kind of wonder about the unit with no guns and no dedicated Assault Vehicle who cost 26pts a pop.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5056002.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5056002.page GMT Possessed Marines 6th Edition IC) consider to make them troops. PMs and TSs are excellent objective holders and really hard to get rid off.

To the Possessed: I have yet to run them in 6th but with all those nice buffs they got I actually consider taking them again as the models are amazing. But I would not run them in a Rhino, give them MoN or MoT and put them in front of your shooty units and run every turn you are not in charge distance and the enemy has to decide if he shoots them or your big guns.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5056026.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5056026.page GMT Possessed Marines 6th Edition http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5056084.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5056084.page GMT Possessed Marines 6th Edition Too bad they only ever get ap2.

Don't take berserkers as elites.

This is the point. Use them in a fun game, but in a competitive setting, there is no place for Possessed. Actually, the issues are the same as in the previous edition.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5057619.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5057619.page GMT Possessed Marines 6th Edition

Right. Even if you could make possessed slightly better than marked CSM or cult troops (which really you can't) you still aren't scoring in any missions. So tactically you lose out on an objective holder. The CSM or cults in most cases will be almost as powerful in melee, and give you access to heavy/special weapons which are going to be able to take out enemy armor. Possessed really serve no purpose. Even as a small cheap throw away unit they lose out to terminators who can deepstrike, shoot melta, and take much more dedicated fire from the enemy to kill.

I was thinking to use some in a Tally List with Mark or Nurgle. Any thoughts on that? Shouldn't be an issue since they are daemons, and would benefit from everything but the Feel No Pain buff.


but they still arent any good. even with their random mutations you are better off using other units. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5059352.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5059352.page GMT Possessed Marines 6th Edition CSM (just mutated)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5059871.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/493401/5059871.page GMT
