Legion of the Damned

Post by kturock »

I've liked these models since they were first released...BUT>>>

1, I know my painting skills are lacking and I can't do the models justice.

2, what are th units general tactics. I'm not asking for specifics, that would violate GW's & B-towns rules; but something like, gets bonueses to hit with bolters. [Imperial & Crimson Fists] or gets bonuses withand vs flamers [Salamanders]

Yes I know I can buy the GW ebook, but if the tactics aren't my play style, like the bike tactics of White Scars; I'd rather not waste what little spending money I have.

TIA.

Update:
I've found some info between the SM codex, Battlescribe and Army Builder.
LotD are only an elite unit and can only be added to another force? So I guess I can't have a LotD army.
There aren't really any tactics per say, but a couple special rules.

Right?
Heh, I was called a Grognard. ;-)

They teleport in, don't count as moving when shooting, and look pretty neat... They also get invunerable saves.

Pretty sure they got the standard sort of datasheet "take 2-4 units" or w/e as an allied detachment thing. Sorry for the ambiguous terms, never took the time to learn the new terminology. Pretty sure it wouldn't work to take them as a whole army, even if they had the force org to do so, since they're so expensive. Probably the closest analogous list would be running Thousand Sons since they've got a bunch of tough ghost marines...

I expect honesty about models' conditions, thank you.

If I don't respond in a day or two, please check back, I've forgotten-sorry.

They have a little codex/dataslate. It doesn't really do anything that amazing. Just a formation for any imperial army. Does let you create their special sergeant guy.
