Doesnt really change much though. Instead of a Battalion + patrol detachment with 15+ scouts you can just take a Vanguard/Outrider/Spearhead + patrol detachment and only have 1 troop anyway. Just changed a few pts for a CP or two. With Eradicators and Blade Guard veterans being up to 6 per unit with combat squadding enabled the slots arent that important anymore. It is not like scouts being obsec was that important considering how weak they were.

Having 1+ non scout troop unit was seen in almost all lists even before they were elite so 1 or more patrols is probably still going be taken for at least 2cp refunded. Patrol + specialist gives you 4 HQ, 8 slots of your choice and 4 slots for the rest. It only costs 1cp more than battalion + patrol and very few lists would need more slots than that. Quite a few already ran that setup.

Only reason I even used scouts in my BA lists is because I am a slow painter and hadnt gotten to my incursors yet. And that is the only top 4 list I have seen at a GT or bigger with the actual 3x5 scouts in it. And it even had 5 troops despite only needing 4 for the detachments.

Is smash captains even a real thing anymore? Not even all BA lists played with one and now the TH is nerfed in AP, SS lost 3++, the fight twice/thrice strat combos are gone and they cant even get rerolls without paying another 40pts for chapter master. Lots of the good and expensive stratagem combos are also gone and transhuman changed so marines need even less CP now so paying some extras for the slots isnt that much of a deal.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792832/10952357.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792832/10952357.page GMT New Codex HQs

In fairness that's not really what i was saying. Nor was I intending on taking multiple smash captains.
I'm talking about making more room to take the mid tier characters in the codex.
I've always felt chaos marine armies should have less of a rank and file feel to them (apart from cultists) with more scope for individual champions and blessed individuals. In comparison to the loyalist codex with their various champions, banner bearers, apothecaries, honour guards etc Chaos Marines don't really have a lot of space for creating characters.
Even Imperial Guard, that really are all about the rank and file, can field armies with multiple platoon and company commanders, psykers, masters of ordinance, priests, commissars etc.

Oh I understand what you're saying, I was merely giving the reasons for them being as they are. Greater possessed are in elites already, the master of executions should go to elites imo but that's about it.

Sure, but then you're getting into a position where you're paying 2 CP to take what are already non competitive choices just for a little added flavour. It is frustrating that there seems to be several cases where you pay double jeapordy for fluff choices. I'm not really a hyper competitive player but I'm also not particularly inclined to completely gimp myself. A 2000pt list can normally carry one or two sub optimal choices but when it starts costing you CP or other buffs it just makes you think it's not worth the hassle.

I actually just noticed loyalists can actually take two lieutenants in one HQ slot]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792832/10952522.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792832/10952522.page GMT New Codex HQs

To nitpick deathwatch lost a little character in their index rules set, special issue ammo etc. However given their supplement is maybe a month out tops, seems premature to complain.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792832/10953561.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792832/10953561.page GMT New Codex HQs DW, and I'm not salty (yet). They took away SIA from all primaris and pretty much everything that isn't a standard basic bolter.

But, DW gained like 50 more unit options and two more types of kill teams (that admittedly have some broken keyword interractions), so. . .

Anyway, back to the topic--no it doesn't seem that much has changed for Space Marine characters. They are more at a premium, but they are (aside from the Chapter Master) also more powerful than they were before due to the chapter command upgrades you can now take for points instead of CP.

I agree with others in that I think this is by design. They want you to limit your characters and make choices to bring other stuff that's more reflective of a "fluffy" army. Multiple captains in a supreme command detachment that grants you MORE CP was something I think most people (and especially GW) disliked.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792832/10953575.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/792832/10953575.page GMT New Codex HQs

But they are important. If GW writes the rules for a normal apothecary in a such a way that he is not worth taking, and at the same time makes a warlord version of the apothecary that rises attack bikes from the dead and is generaly awesome, the rules have impact on the list building and the army composition, because with 3 HQ slots and more specific an apothecary warlord the army starts looking a lot different.

And GW does stuff like that all the time, excusing the rules changes as them just wanting to represent The Lore better is a weak argument, when there is a ton of examples when they do the opposit, or strickt make stuff better to sell specific models in favour of other models. Or even worse, when they forget their own rules or list building paradigmas from 2-3 editions ago, and suddenly the army feels as if it wasn't writen for the edition people play in.

You ain't going to tell me that gsc or knight rules in 9th feel good. Or the cutting the main load out of units for DW, which were vets with shields and storm bolters, in favour of primaris is anything, but trying to push primaris in favour of classic marine models. I mean storm bolters losing the DW ammo, impacts the list building and how the armies work. And lore wise, both stormbolters and regular bolters, which happen to still have the old DW rules, use the same kind of ammo.

IF they do, but I don't think they did. 1 CP for the new resurrection strat isn't that expensive, AND a damn sight better than a 50/50 shot of a res/heal or standing around with your reductor in your hands. Even a normal apothecary is better enough it's worth taking now.

he rules have impact on the list building and the army composition, because with 3 HQ slots and more specific an apothecary warlord the army starts looking a lot different.

We always had 3HQ slots, and the Apothecary is an Elite Slot. Which we've had 6 of for a while.
