So I'm redesigning that list without the second Templar squad, and with the extra 90 or so points I put some power weapons in my vet squads. Is this a good idea? Power swords/axes make a as a good charge deterrent as anything, but at the same time I doubt it'll be all that effective. Ideas?

It's simple. Nothing bad ever happened in 30k when it was just resin, ergo everything bad came to it because of plastic 30k kits.

All the robutts are resin tho

GOSH DO I HATE ADB.

Doesn't matter, there's plastic 30k Marines, so 30k is shit now.

A hidden (i.e. not on the sergeant) axe or two can help, but you may be overspending on them, with combiweapons & powerweapons and so on when you don't even have full squads. Don't forget, 10 IF marksmen vets with just bolters are still pretty darn effective. Most people only put combiweapons on every model when they intend the unit as a suicide team (drop in, kill something costing more than them, die). So, what role do you actually have in mind for those two squads?

I blame ADB.

As are quad-mortars and Spartans, which I would argue are considerably less fun than the tac blob lists that Calth and Prospero encourage

Also, why are boops considered cancer? They have very little dakka or choppy for cost, honestly, and they're predictable and easily tarpitted since they can't Sweeping advance. I play Reductor, but the Vorax I like to use tend to be gunned down fairly easily.
