It only made them better against infantry.


I'd give them the rule they have in the codex for swapping weapons, allow them to use the same weapon in consecutive rounds, and increase the unit size to 5.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5184139.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5184139.page GMT Mutilators sans the suck
They are the CSM version of Assault Terminators that can do things better with more flexibility than using Chaos Terminators to do it. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5184337.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5184337.page GMT Mutilators sans the suck csm assault terminators? Mutilators fill a role that didn't need to be filled and could easily be covered by terminators, but someone decided that Mutilators needed to exist. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5186124.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5186124.page GMT Mutilators sans the suck cc obliterators]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5197212.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5197212.page GMT Mutilators sans the suck

If you are fighting 2+ saves you simply swap between Power Fists and Chainfists.

If fighting anything else you swap between Lightning Claws and Power Swords.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5197995.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5197995.page GMT Mutilators sans the suck cc oblit would be like and hopefully in the future with allies they get a race that they will synergize great with and people will ally them]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5197997.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5197997.page GMT Re:Mutilators sans the suck

No power fists.

Only LC, CF, Axes, Swords and Mauls. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5198080.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5198080.page GMT Re:Mutilators sans the suck http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5198085.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5198085.page GMT Re:Mutilators sans the suck http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5198094.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5198094.page GMT Mutilators sans the suck OP.

Monstrous Creatures? Really? So now everything will run from a 55 pt model with AP2 attacks. MC should not be used by anything so cheap or small.

Storm Shields? Of course, since the rest of Chaos is not allowed to use them, give a Daemon another invulnerable save...

The Necron Canoptek spyder is a MC at 50 points, with higher stats, and come with fearless. It even comes with S6/T6. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5201380.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5201380.page GMT Mutilators sans the suck

Keep your shorts on, sparky. I changed it back to infantry, which I meant to do earlier. Why shouldn't MC be used by anything so small? It's a set of rules, or would you rather me write out Smash, Relentless, and Move through Cover? It only has 2 attacks base, 4 if charging and 3 in combat, giving it at most 2 smash attacks. I mean, god forbid he has 4 S4 AP2 attacks, that'd be like... a Khorne Lord with the Axe of Blind Fury, or a DW terminator with the halberd of Caliban (but with 2 less Strength and one less attack on the charge). Just because it says Monstrous Creature does not automatically give the model Daemon Prince or Hive Tyrant stats.

Oh, and no, I'm sure those TH/SS terminators only have that SS save, right? Because that other Terminator 5+ save disappears via magic when they get that SS. Chaos does not have access to Storm Shields, the only 3+ save they do have is 40 points and a combination of the Sigil and MoT, which is not helpful when you want... any other mark. Chaos terminators/ TEQ have at best a 4+ invuln, whereas Deathwing Knights have T5 and a 3+ invuln.

And refer to the post right above mine for another cheap and "small" MC.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5201392.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/501064/5201392.page GMT
