===Captain Bat Shit Insane=== The most absurd infantry beat stick you possess. Stat wise he’s a basic captain (down to the 5++) but with an extra attack and two arecheotech chainswords (S user ap-2 D2 +1 attack) which give him an effective attack count of 8, 10 on the charge with ALWAYS ANGRY!!! and shock assault, on top of power feet and the usual D3 attacks with them at the end of the fight phase. By itself this makes him an infantry blender of some quality, but as with all angry marines what makes them special are their special rules. Skill through insanity allows him to reroll all failed hits and hit rolls of 6+ automatically wound, which stacks with always angry to give you two auto wounding hits on a hit of 6+, although with strength 5 this isn’t as essential. However, he may never be your warlord, stopping him from taking advantage of the absurdly powerful happy go choppy warlord trait (which would make his attack count 12 on the charge with triple exploding attacks on 6’s). Finally, his Flurry of chain swords rule means that failed hit rolls of 1 against him in the fight phase deal a mortal wound back on the sender, which works absolute wonders on swarms, and at the beginning of each fight phase all (including friendlies) other units within 3” of him take a mortal wound on a 4+. In all he’s a glass cannon, so load him into a transport and fire him at your enemy as fast as possible and watch them disappear in a red mist, as on the charge he effectively creates 11.66 hits on whatever he is fighting on the charge, which is more than enough to simple evaporate most targets.
