I'm having a hard time settling on a Legion, I thought I wanted to play Night Lords but after reading the Night Lords trilogy they mostly just come off as pathetic losers whose main complaint about the Imperium is that is isn't fascist enough. Thats all well and good for a book but I'm not sure I want to play "the dishonorable guys who always lose" and it seems like you need to do some conversion work to really pull off their aesthetic (lots of flayed human skin and skull helms). After that I have sorta bounced between Imperial Fists and Word Bearers until I realized I don't actually like the Imperial Fists, I like Sigismund and the Black Templars which is a very different thing and it seems like half my local shop wants to play Word Bearers and I'd prefer to not have mirror matches all day. Right now I'm reading my way through the first part of the HH books for the first time and its actually pushing me towards Sons of Horus pretty hard. Getting to play as either Arch-Traitors with Horus or Loyalists with Lokan and pals seems like a huge plus too. Who knows how I'll feel by the time the box comes out though.

For the more melee focused legions, how much do they actually want the tactical marines from the starter box? It seems like they would be much more interested in some flavor of Assault Squad, and they would be in a game like 40k, but I don't know enough about the quirks and structure of 30k to know the answer to that question. I just don't want to commit to something like Night Lords, Space Wolves or Blood Angels if it means I'm gonna need to buy a bunch of a different type of troops to play them "correctly".

Walkers as vehicles were almost universally terrible and were outshone by monstrous creatures at every turn. Turning them all into monstrous creatures is obviously the correct solution.

I think my Sons of Horus decision is sticking -I loved them in the first three heresy books, so much so that Im a little disappointed to be away from their perspective in Flight of the Eisenstein -They're good at basically everything so I dont have to be shoehorned into one playstyle -Color scheme rules and the paint tutorial posted earlier in the thread makes it look so easy -gently caress the Emperor

Hey for some legions you get access to new commanders. Part of the reason I like the idea of SoH so much is that I can use Lokan if Im feeling loyalist-curious.

After playing my weekly AoS game at the local shop I talked about Horus Heresy with a guy in the shop who said that "reactions are cancer and they got to go" and complained about dreadnoughts being vulnerable to small arms fire now.

I see all of the special unit details but nothing like "this is the standard Tactical Squad with wargear options and point costs". Both the Liber Astartes and Hereticus have the generic Legiones Astartes armylist+the loyalist/traitor units

Is there a good armybuilder app for the new edition out there? I can whip up a list with a calculator but it'd be a lot easier if I had a program that let me look at the list as I was building it.

Oh well, I used to write out army lists all the way back in 5th edition (even if I was too young and too poor to actually get together an army) so its not like I haven't done it before. At least I don't have to deal with all the weird detachment stuff of 9th edition and can just use the one Force Org chart.
