I lost the old thread for this, so I thought that I would start a new one.
The new Land Speeder is the picture of today. What do you think?
Then there is one more picture that I have found!

Yum! I like the drop pod. Nowadays I am crazy enough to buy them; in the old days they were too expensive for me.

They're nice. I was expecting all the marine stuff to be Templars first before other chapters.

Like the land speeder, but it looks a little rough, maybe it's the paint-job, I don't know...
I'm off to find the "hidden" picture now.

Eh? The landspeeder Typhoon isn't specific to any chapter. And based on the current Templars list, the only units that will need new models are the Land Raider crusader, and neophyte bikers.

I was going by colours. I had seen a load of black templar marines, so thought that the marines would be in that colour scheme upon release. However these two were in dark green, like Dark Angels (although their landspeeder would be black if it were raven guard).
The good thing about not being black, is that its easier to spot details.

Ah ok, I was thinking of the models not the paint schemes. I would guess they will have pictures of models from several different marine chapters. The pictures on the Epic site of the new SM vehicles were from several different chapters.

The Black Templars army is Mark Bedofrd's personal army, a lot of which is comprised of Resin masters rather than full-production metals!
It is used at the shows he's present at so has been seen quite a lot, but its not a "studio" force as such._________________ Cheers, Paul "TuffSkull" T. http://hobbybrush.com - My New Website, with thousands of painted Mini Pics :) http://hobbybrush.blogspot.com - My Hobby Blog TuffSkull's notepad- My Old Blog on Wargames Wiki.

I think the Studio Armies are supposed to be Black Templars and Salamanders (hence the green speeder). As I recall they've got green terminators too (eg. no Death Wing)

For those of you playing EA, I am soliciting all opinions on anti-Eldar tactics, especially those applicable for use by SM and CSM forces.
What I am interested in are tactics that a well rounded, tournament-style force could use against Eldar. I am not interested in army selection suggestions. I can definitely tool up an anti-Eldar army pretty easily but that doesn't help on the fly.
The problem that I run into is that Eldar have hordes of MW fire. A lot of the SM and CSM unit cost comes from the fact that they are definitely well-armored. MW negates that and as both forces are few in number, Eldar seem tailor-made to shred SM and CSM. I have yet to find tactics that work consistently.
Thanks for any help, guys.

I've had success with the usual drop-podding Scouts supported by Thunderhawks and Terminators. The scouts can assault Eldar vehicle formations (Falcons, Prisms, Engines of Vaul) on Turn 1 and make the Eldar spend turn 1 dealing with the nuisance while I get to keep the initiative and maneuver for positions. To summarize, do what Marines always do: kill the soft firepower fast.
