Black Templars crusade/ Rules question

I have a rules question that I need some expert internet know how on, and check out this Black Templar Army thats been cleaning up the Best Painting awards lately!

I dont have any pictures of my game against my second opponent, Mike Duffy. He played tau and in the beginning of the game he rolled poorly, allowing me to get close enough to teleport my termies in. Once that happened, the tactical Dreadnaught armour, terminator armour, couldnt be stopped. Good game and I won in the last assault giving me the kill point I needed!




My third game was against Andrew and his Vulkan list. I dont have any pictures and his army wasnt super melta/flamer spam. I think that I am most proud of the way I played in this game. At toywiz they write special missions. In this game, it was capture and control and if either General was killed, it became an additional objective. This is how I planned to win and it almost happened, almost. I teleported Lysander's squad in and separated him from the squad next movement phase in what seemed to be a beserker charge! We both placed our objectives in opposite corners and camped a sizeable force on top of them. There was no way I was going to get to them. My plan was to kill Lysander right in front of my force and take that as my second game winning objective. Everything worked out except I couldnt kill a damn Land raider which contested it in the end. Good Job Andrew.



Rules Discussion #2 Outflanking chosen


In my game last week I came up with a rules question that I thought someone out there may be able to answer. Watch the video which should be short and let me know what you guys think I am able to get away with ;p

Rules Discussion #1 FNP vs. AP3


HI there folks! After talking with Black Matt I've decided to take some time away from the many Seiges I'm running against planets of The False Emperor in order to throw some ideas out there and see what you all think! Today I'd like to throw out a rules query for you all and see where you go with it. I'll hold my personal answer until after some of you have had a chance to post your thoughts! Today's question, "Do Plague Marines get Feel No Pain against AP3 weapons?" The rule for FnP can be found on page 75 of the BRB. The major part of this issue is how do you interpret the part "..and any other wound against which no armour save can ever be taken." Do you take this to mean, 'can never be taken for that model', or 'can never be taken by any model'? Please read the rule over and discuss away!

Black Matt's Black Guard


I have decided to bring someone on board who will help with a post every once in a while. Introducing Marius Xerxes, the captain of Black Matt's Black Guard. He worked last year on Adepticon rules council and helped write their FAQ in Chicago. He really know his stuff. I have asked him for his opinion on a couple of issues and we came up with the idea of having him write a post here and there to examine some of the controversial rules. We wont always agree and we hope that you wont either. Feel free to speak up and question our take on the rules. Look for Marius Xerxes to tell you how it is soon!
