Goatboy’s 40K: Ultramarines Repulsor Armageddon
Goatboy here again and instead of some dumb chaos list – lets build a Space Marine list using the new Repulsor Executioner.
I think the new tank in the right type of army will be a pain in the butt. It just shoots a lot, its pretty tough, and it has Roboute to back it up. I don’t like the Benjamin you have to spend to buy it – but it will show up as there is always a few Ultramarine builds in any big event. Nothing like seeing that nice bright blue army run around the table top with tanks going pew pew.
With that in mind – let’s get to building. We’ll probably take a Super Heavy Aux to get Roboute and then look at filling out a basic Battalion. From there it is all up to me to depend on if I want to throw in an Assassin or two.

Ultramar Tactics
This list leaves you with enough points to grab an Assassin as needed and hopefully use your rerolls, regrows, and other tools to put out a ton of damage to your opponent. I went with Some Phobos armor nonsense to help protect the tanks a bit. There is a thought on going the new Scout route but they really need to drop a little bit to make them fit in this army. Of course if you didn’t have an assassin all the Intercessors could get swapped out – but its up to you. This list is a 6 drop army if you wanted too – which is pretty interesting depending on the type of event you are playing. I always found having the choice to go second was better for you – as you knew exactly what was going to happen instead of getting surprised by a seize.
Hopefully I will get some Chaos Knights soon and go back to being the bad guy of the universe.
~Until next time – Death to the False Emperor… um, I meant to say… FOR ULTRAMAR!
