IMHO, it has all the ingredients of a sturdy 6th edition list (with the possible exception of anti-flyer weapons).<br />I would really appreciate your insights!<br />Thanks,<br />JackJack Bnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229245860561585942.post-88875941248558627572010-03-29T21:04:03.054-07:002010-03-29T21:04:03.054-07:00Not in my current one, but I have used them in the...Not in my current one, but I have used them in the past!

I must say I agree with the argument of SG being more effective at short range though. <br /><br />I was wondering if it could be effective to include a SG squad at max number with 2HF and a Rhino. This way, you can either split them and have the half with HF runing around in the Rhino and flaming to death Infantry, or keep them as one big unit that can either defend or attack with good chances of success. Don't know if this would fit the points limit though...<br /><br />I'll be watching this Blog avidly in the future, I like what you're doing.jpwyrmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13321279411580155881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229245860561585942.post-74245729506395174422010-03-29T05:04:57.243-07:002010-03-29T05:04:57.243-07:00I would op for more mobile and up close approach w...I would op for more mobile and up close approach with Crimson Fist.

Since the objective of this particular list is to play defensive, I chose for long-range Sternguard over the close-range ones.HEROhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16578445512892020612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229245860561585942.post-89094788439103939652010-03-27T23:01:06.578-07:002010-03-27T23:01:06.578-07:00It seems to me that Sternguard have their strength...It seems to me that Sternguard have their strengths in close range firefights where they can use their specialist ammunition better; which is why I think that PCs in a sternguard squad seem rather like a waste of either rapid fire super bolters or of the PCs - why not put them in devastator squads instead, and have sternguard doing what they do best?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229245860561585942.post-19640383927276783202010-03-27T20:12:23.536-07:002010-03-27T20:12:23.536-07:00That would be very cool Badelarie.

I've picked the CFs as my first Codex SM list (once my Wolves are done), and I'm looking to build perhaps a reserve company force, to represent a slowly rebuilt company with 1st and 10th company support. I'd actually like to build just a small, perhaps 1K army, and use it as a "training army" for new players interested in learning 40K.Jack Badelairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10932441028544500024noreply@blogger.com
