What kind of bitch-ass heretic backs away from a gene-stealer while wearing terminator armour?

Nice to see some gameplay. The trailer they showed last year was nice exept the crappy music.

I take it that quote is from the early nineties?
Nowadays that doesn't fly.

Hopefully it's just as fun as Space Marine. Gob slapping wave after wave of Orks was great.

Oh aye, Deathwing: Staunch.

One of my favourite sentences of all time.

How come? Isn't terminator armour way better? it always had a fkin +2 save. I mean that's retarded. I had the same chance to damage a land raider

Back in the day when I played 40k, Terminators had a +3 save on 2D6.
And Deathwing were immune to psychology yet I was still scared of genestealers, why? They were cheap and vicious in close combat. They took a chunk out of the armour save -3/-4 I think from my poor memory but had 3 attacks each and could come in big packs. All the opponent player had to do was get into close combat and they'd go to town on you like Jack the Ripper with a hooker.

When I get home I'll dig out my heretical tome.

I knew someone would be more Statto than me.

They also had Ld10, caused Fear and were Immune to Psychology, so even Terminators are in for a rough time.
338 points for 12 vs 340 for 5 Deathwing Terminators. Not even a contest in terms of value.

That's why you run away, even in Terminator armour, and nuke from orbit.

I don't remember there being a limit, for Deathwing anyway. We couldn't field that sort of equipment but there was no 0-1 limitation in the Codex, the points cost was prohibitive enough. And all the characters bar Master of the Ravenwing could use terminator armour.

It's on my radar, but I will wait until it is out and there are some actual user reviews out.
