Games Workshop Warhammer 40,000 Chaos Space Marine Vindicator

Product Information

I wanted to know if you could magnetise the kit to swap the guns around. The good news is that you can, and it’s up to you how much effort you expend doing so. This is because it’s not only the gun barrels that are different. There are two different gun shields and two sets of roof bits. You’ll find that the laser destroyer is too wide for the demolisher’s gun shield so you should use the laser destroyer’s shield if you want to swap the barrels.

After millennia of brutal warfare across the galaxy, it is still in favour within the Adeptus Astartes, the Vindicator Laser Destructor continuing to bring retribution to the enemies of Mankind. Our goal is to build upon and consolidate the great work already being done by other community members across various forums, reddit threads, and hobby blogs, and bring together a comprehensive library of all these useful Build Instruction booklets. Bloodletters • Plaguebearers • Horror of Tzeentch • Daemonette • Nurglings • Beast of Nurgle • Plague Drone • Flamer • Screamer An area where the Chaos Space Marines army really shines is in the HQ slot, where it has a number of strong choices that can be built into real melee blenders. This is kind of a double-edged sword however, as it means Chaos Space Marines armies are light on characters in the Elites slot, and so taking more than 3 will often mean having two detachments, something you don’t want to do. The competition here is very fierce, particularly as you figure out how you’re going to fit in the psykers you need. Abaddon the DespoilerChaos Lord • Exalted Champion • Sorcerer Lord • Daemon Prince • Dark Commune ( Cult Demagogue • Mindwitch • Iconrach • Blessed Blades) On the whole, the Lord Discordant is still one of the army’s best units, and has gotten better thanks to now being 9 wounds and protectable with Look Out, Sir. He’s great as a front line threat and able to charge in and take out key targets, punching up. There are a bunch of different ways to kit him out depending on how killy vs. durable you want him to be, and there are plenty of different ways to use him in-game. He’s really a unit you can fit into most lists. Cypher

Chaos Space Marine armies have long included specialty cult units like Berzerkers and their Codex has rules for including those in your army. As an added bonus, this model is a WARP LOCUS, so he can drop in any Daemon codex units that have tagged along a mere 6” from the enemy. Flamers and Bloodletters love getting close to the enemy, but do note he is restricted to Warp Locus-ing units from the same God if he is anything besides Undivided. Dark Apostle Liber Hereticus – PSYKER model only. Lets you manifest one additional power per phase, and each time you manifest a power you add 6” to the effects. This won’t affect auras (per the FAQ), so Cursed Earth isn’t getting buffed, but it can give some powers incredibly long range, such as Smite, Pact of Flesh, and Warp Marked. It won’t help you on Psychic Interrogation sadly, but the extra cast is also very strong for your marked Master of Possession. A I’ve built my Vindicator with the Laser Destroyer, but these are the parts for the Demolisher version. You’d need to magnetise some or all of these if you wanted to swap things over. Predator ( Annihilator • Destructor • Baal) • Land Raider ( Phobos • Crusader • Redeemer • Achilles • Prometheus • Terminus Ultra • Ares • Excelsior • Wrath of Mjalnar • Angel Infernus • Solemnus Aggressor • Anvilarum) • Vindicator Laser Destroyer • Repulsor • Repulsor Executioner • Gladiator • Astraeus

Painting the Vindicator

The only change here is that the Land Raider Banisher has gained the SANCTIC ASTARTES keyword (and lost ADEPTUS ASTARTES), which doesn’t matter yet but may be good to have in the future. Orks Space Marine battle tanks are not permanently attached to any one company. Instead they form a vehicle pool, and individual tanks are available for deployment to Space Marine commanders as required. Melee Combat. Chaos Space Marines have some of the game’s best melee threats – Possessed, Abaddon, Chaos Space Marines, Lords Discordant, Masters of Executions, and Chosen are all absolutely nasty threats, and you can make most of them even better with relics, warlord traits, and upgrades. There are also three additional powers you can access if your Psyker has the Mark of Tzeentch, Nurgle, or Slaanesh. All three of these are good and they’re free, so you aren’t really forced to choose between them and anything else. All of them increase your durability in different ways, but Delightful Agonies is the best of the bunch.
