You would be rich and mainly cause its true.

If you practice with something you get better at it. If you do everything in TDA then your better than a smurf that knows how to use is it but is usually in power armour.

Give me some game stats where DA terminators had higher combat skills than other Codex chapters or GT^H^Hconcede the argument.

In 40k WS, BS, initiative and attacks have always been the same. Every single time.

Yet they have had special rules which shows there unique abilities and they can have multiple weapon loadouts within squads ie lighting claws and 2X assault cannons while normal termies were stuck with all the same weapons and generally one HW Granted there stats lines never changed much but that was/is for game balance in 40k. Fluff wise a squad of DW could and would kick the A$$ of a smurf squad any day of the week.

DA have to have the best Terminators, oh and the best fast attack assets...... and the best leaders ('cos they were all DW).... we have to have special plasma weapons too, and our 1st company wouldn't sink as low as wearing mere power armour.... our chapter colour is green, but we get cool black amour too, oh and bone coloured as well. No, we can't just be good guys, we've got to be bad guys too, at the same time! Oh and we have a big secret that we're not going to share with anyone!

Gaaaa!!!!!

Fact. The reason DA have always sounded so good but been so rubbish in game terms is because they're so stuck up! We must reflect this in our Epic list! Fluff to be written exclusively in the first person hailing DA as all round amazing. Rules wise they should be below par ego marines with no freinds!

P.S.

Just in case the Angel-of-Calaban actually thinks he is a Dark Angel I'm really sorry it was all meant in jest!

P.P.S

I am actually a member of the Fallen out to destroy the Dark Angels!!!! Mwahahahaha !!!!!!!!

As a DA player I will of course think I have the best army. However somethings we are the best at because we are so friends less and have to make up for the lack of support.  :laugh:

Line company and there squads are as any other chapter. Are Termies are the best and should reflect there dedication to their TDA accordingly. RW are also amazing as they spend there lives on their bikes and/or speeders hunting down the fallen. Our radical obsessive quest has made our 1st and 2nd company especially talented and amazing as a side effect. The rest of the army is standard but likes plasma.

We have to think of the Deathwing(RW included as there DW members) as very skilled and prepared group that has to work alone therefore they have to be the best. The rest of the chapter is for show, Also we need a large pool of recurits to replace are sugeriacal strike team of highly skilled warriors.

Related to morale only.

(Well they have Deathwing assault but Imperial Fists had a special terminator assault ability too which was even better and I would then fully expect you to lobby for representation of that too if the IF list ever gets off the ground)

In second edition all terminator squads could mix weapons however you want. DA terminators could only take two heavy weapons in their 3rd edition dex, back when everyone could do so.

Yeah, you can (still) mix CC weapons with stormbolter marines. What does that have anything to do with skill again? You're WS4 BS4.

Fap fap fap. Based on what?

Rug: it's not white. It's off white. I expect you to apologize all Dark Angels fans.

2nd ed Wolf Guard squads could be unlimited in size and all be armed with assault cannons AND cyclone missile launchers! :whistle:

That's acually true!

Also IIRC the were also known as Cheese Wolves and my primarch beat up their primarch!  :laugh:

Something I totally disagree with. IF aren't that cool when it comes to termies and therefor the DW should have better rules. But some idiot at GW HQ wanted cool IF that wasn't fluffy, oh wait they made up fluff for it to fit  :glare:

There ground pounding siege masters not termies heavy specialist ppl. Or did we change that in the fluff too GW?  :oops:

I don't play 40k anymore because of there inconsistent fluff and rules between armies intionally. That's why I play BFG and Epic because GW hasn't ruined them.

And my fluff can beat up your fluff.

Also, your MOM.

Are we quite done here?

I was along time ago.

I wasn't the one that went on a rambling tangent off a post of constructive advice and opinion of a army list in development.  :grin:

I didn't want to be hostile!

I disagree with your statements and I think made a passable job at presenting my counter-arguments. I apologize if I sounded insulting though, that was not my primary intention.

Except that part about your mom. You totally had it coming.
