Honor the Codex: Back with a Vengeance

Greetings disciples, and welcome to the return of Honor The Codex. With the dawning of a new codex, it would make sense to reevaluate our stance on units, formations, and tactics. This won't necessarily be another full review, but more a changelog, built off my understanding of the new current Space Marine codex, and my experiences with the last one. I won't make any bones about this, I'm going to break down the codex at both the 'tier one' (tournament) and 'tier two' (casual competitive relative to my local meta) levels, with the same ruthless rating system as last time.

Ruling Through Fear: Imperial Armada (Starter)

In regards to the better half of the Armada starter, I’m Warmaster Havok and I’m here to give my thoughts on the Imperial side. As per the standard of any of the Star Wars stuff, I picked up all of the Imperial sides of the two starters that Corvus and I picked up because there is little that is more satisfying than destroying Corvus' Rebel scum when ever they poke their heads out of what ever hole they are hiding in.

The Time for Attack: Rebel Armada (Starter)

Hi everyone, I'm Corvus, and I am a recovering Armada addict. It all started at GenCon last August...

For those of you who love(d) BFG and who wanted something just a little more grand than X-Wing, you've probably been exposed to some of my enthusiasm for Armada. This is a game for thinkers, long term planners, and anyone who loved the fleet battles in the movies, especially Return of the Jedi. So, as is my tradition from X-Wing, I've snapped up the Rebels, and today, I'm going over the starter.
