*'''Land Raider:''' Already we see the significant bump in Toughness as its Toughness got bumped up from 8 to 12 - Incidentally, that's just enough that its lascannons (now toting the "Godhammer" moniker) can only wound it on a 4+. That tankiness also influences its damage track, as it now only suffers a penalty to BS when it's on its last 5 wounds. Assault Ramps also make a glorious return, granting your squads the ability to charge after disembarking - something we've all sorely missed.

**As with last edition, it can easily grab Wulfen and Termies with ease (each model taking two slots) and can even fit Centurions (each taking three slots), but now it can also carry any {{W40kKeyword|Gravis}} units as well (at two slots a model), meaning you can easily use it to cart a pack of Aggressors so they can incinerate the opposition or assist some Heavy Intercessors with capping a point.

Why Play Space Marines

Special Rules

  • Oath of Moment: The special rule of the faction, this lets you mark one enemy unit. All of your forces can re-roll to hit and wound this one unit, making it ideal for focus-firing an enemy to death.

Detachments

Gladius Task Force

Special Rules

  • Combat Doctrines: This has come back, but it's been cut back considerably form being a fundamental asset for guiding your army's movement to now once-per-game buffs.
    • Devastator Doctrine: Your army can always shoot after advancing. Incredibly handy for heavy gunners Heavy Intercessors and Helblasters.
    • Tactical Doctrine: Your army can shoot and charge after falling back.
    • Assault Doctrine: Your army can charge after advancing.

Stratagems

  • Only in Death Does Duty End (2 CP): If your enemy hits and kills one of your models in melee, that model can get one last swing before going down.
