36,000 Points of Space Marines Showcase - Why I Love Ep 4

[@maxschmidt666]

Q: So which Space Marine Legion do you play with? A: Yes.

[@starbomber]

"100 scouts!" You have a full 10th company.

[@a-cell4564]

starbomber Wow the [Redacted]ion's Spies could not realize that. And I'm totally a Salamander.

[@psycosanches589]

I don't think there's a limit on how many scouts that, even a codex compliant, chapter can have in their 10th...

[@stillunsure7630]

Yeah, codex chapters are 100 scouts plus command staff to care for them unless it's the Executioner or Flesh Tearers chapters who have have 2 scout companies each. I've 80 scout minis myself with different weapon load outs. 😁

[@2guys1cliplol]

I'm trying to make a full blood raven's 10th company (all scouts and any space marines that are vanguard) and I think I got the troops I just need everything else

[@johnfraire6931]

Day 2:17 They still do not know I am an Ultramarine

[@DireAvenger-Thepage]

John Fraire I think its a libraian on bike

[@johnfraire6931]

Dire Avenger I guess that makes sense. -That or Alpha Legion-

[@a-cell4564]

Alphlarius Lives. We outnumber the Smurfs, and possess the better Primarch(s)

[@johnfraire6931]

Sapper2034 No offense, but quality over quantity. Edit: legion AND primarchs

[@a-cell4564]

Height has nothing to do with this!

[@brianwilson1763]

I remember when I got into Space Marines as a kid I enjoyed the early good to fight all evil narrative they had. I think it appealed to me as someone who was raised religious that has tons of the good vs evil narrative in it. And I agree the more you learn about the army the more you realize they are still human. Even the by the books Ultramarines with characters written in 4th ed and some of the more modern ones like Titus who isn't as by the books as you would think. Great video though! Makes me want to get back into collecting Space Marines.

[@spejz9422]

I calculated how much this army would cost with today's prices and it's around 7600 USD where 20% of the cost comes from bike squads.

[@doctormelgarejo7258]

Omfg...

[@Andrewlang90]

$7600 isn’t that bad. My hobby of cars, $7600 is a drop in the bucket. Plus, this is over the course of years

[@kc3718]

a top end bicycle costs c $10,000 and then there's all the kit to go with it....

[@SanguiniusEntar]

...and I thought I had a lot of Space Marines. I am not worthy, I am not worthy! No Blood Angels though? Disgraceful! :P

[@clonetf141]

Sang Entar blood angels cjaos marines dark anfels grey knights deathwatch and space wolves will get their own videos

[@SanguiniusEntar]

Ahh, good. Thanks :D

[@darthowl100]

Blood Angels and Space Wolfs are part of Dave's collection, and then they have Dark Angels which are part of Steve's collection. This doesn't even include their 30k armies.

[@kubadominikowski2569]

Sang Entar blood angles are a whole different army

[@jackrogers5712]

I dream to have a collection of Space Marines like this someday. With multiple Chapters represented and everything... so awesome.

[@Goose_VFA1]

I love how at 7:55 there's just a Dark Angel tagging along with Sicarius.

[@TheBananamonger]

He's just chillin with the homie

[@evilpigeonsify]

3:04 is the space marine to the right missing an arm?

[@Max-to1ek]

That one guy I think so

[@HeleentheArcane]

T'is but a scratch

[@tyberportoghese6674]

That opening might terrify anyone new to the community

[@magnos_decimus]

I'm wondering if Dave is going to showcase his entire chaos collection again and how many more he has since the old showcase. because it has got to be much more points than before.

[@squigin3380]

His collection is goals

[@jpray87]

Behind every great Space Marine collection is a wife shaking her head. Trust me, mine is still shaking hers. You have a great collection, and an amazing spread across the range

[@devononair]

This made me laugh when I thought about Matt telling his partner that he was a spy or something, because he was too scared to tell them he played with toy soldiers for a job... hehehe

[@I2iptor]

Amazing ammount of marines! But! No Iron Hands?!? The Flesh is Weak!!!

[@michaelalbright8611]

Also I really like these video series because I can go anywhere and watch battle reports the reasons why I keep coming back to miniwargaming are the personalities behind the camera so I think this series plus the open vault series when the sit and talk series are the best!!!!

[@bennycostello2472]

I was breifly into Warhammer 40k when I was a teen but couldn't afford it, still couldn't really. This is still amazing and I love the communities passion.

[@Mongelli88]

What about Dave's Blood Angel and Space Wolves armies?

[@calebmorrison1538]

Arthur Mongelli they aren't codex compliant. They'll get their own videos. Same as deathwatch.

[@MalcadorTheSigilite]

I am disappointed it's not 40k points

[@johnfraire6931]

If it makes you feel better, M.37 was a pretty important mellenium, with the advent of the T'au and humanity's expanse into the Halo Stars

[@timandshannon03]

Same.

[@thefang.8923]

Where's Dave's space wolves and blood angels? Surely they belong in that list and display?😀

[@DrunkinChaps44]

Please use White Scars and Templars more. They are very underrepresented

[@paulenan9636]

DrunkinChaps44 or Raven Guard for that matter

[@psycosanches589]

I think that's got to do with the fact that bikes and melee just kinda suck...alot...right now.

[@ridingthewave8072]

DO a 'Why I love' on Admech please!

[@KillerOrca]

Love the color scheme for your custom chapter. Green and yellow is always classy

[@Armazillo]

Ill never understand the two t-shirts thing Matt but god bless you

[@andreitiberiovicgazdovici]

Wow. Just...Just wow. I Just started this hobby buying some ultramarines, but watching your collection i am depressed right now...😵🤣👍🤗🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹

[@peters.8243]

Just give me 4,000 Points FORGEWORLD Custodian Guard to counter this force.

[@austinrouse5301]

Very nice collection! When will we see a Eldar/Dark Eldar showcase???

[@nemdenemam9753]

Is there a similar video about the Adeptus Mechanicus? I love me some titans.

[@inhumanbookworm]

2:28 "And of course you have to have Ultramarines because who doesn't like killiin' them. Everyone likes killin' them" :P

[@Art-em8uy]

Emperor prot.... collect!!

[@maximuslee5670]

The Emperor approves. By decree of the High Lords of Terra, you shall be honoured with the Star of Terra and instant field promotion to Commander.

[@nickgarstang6446]

You should do an imperium showcase

[@africanuss.p.q.r8120]

What size Must be the table he plays whit this army against his friends?

[@darthtzeentch2823]

is dave gonna post his chaos his older one is what pushed me to collect my chaos love the green and yellow

[@TheEightfoldPath_]

New deathwatch shenanigans? Can't wait!

[@mfgoon97]

How much would you sell that army for? Not saying it’s for sale or anything just curious.

[@alexsp7086]

Have you been painting since Birth...... How long did it take to paint this :))

[@DevinVT1]

You guys should start a campaign that starts with some army scouting a location for a few games (using killteam rules) which then evolves into a normal war for different objective and the a massive war that ends in apocalypse

[@krilc]

I wonder does mwg have a skaven force?

[@SinCitysOnly]

Yes, they recently purchased something like two hundred models. You can see some of them in Open Vaults, where the guys are changing their bases from square to round.

[@stephenvanderhoff8049]

I just started my space marine army with the shadow spear box and I want to get into the white scar. What units would you recommend to start out white scar?

[@OrrgunUK]

I wonder how many more points that would be if you included Dave’s Blood Angels :)

[@anonymouscrab2013]

40k hopefully

[@tatujuntunen7668]

is salamanders its own thing or is it just spacemarines colored green?

[@toaneo0771]

una pregunta; alguien en algun momento jugo una partida que simulaba eventos en la historia? como la masacre de isvan? asi es como se llama?

[@GriffyGood]

What happened to Dave's blood angels

[@TB-ps6wc]

I thought the white scars were Mongols?

[@benrobbo2902]

T B yep

[@jborreggine8759]

They aren't Mongols lmao it's the year 40K.

[@zacharykoplin6543]

Jesus. I love space marines as well, they are just so cool

[@Ghost-Memories]

How much did all of this have cost in your opinion?, personally I can’t understand how you can have so many of them

[@charlieclifton-brown3729]

Is that including all the Horus Heresy armies, if not how large are those armies?

[@miniwargaming]

No, and it doesn't include our Blood Angels, Grey Knights, or Space Wolves. I'd estimate we have between 15,000 - 20,000 points of Horus Heresy.

[@charlieclifton-brown3729]

Can't wait to see all of that!

[@michaelr3226]

miniwargaming. I am currently working on my own space marine army and while I know what I want my army to be, I don't know enough fluff to know which chapter they are from. Are there any factions (especially one with a codex) that fights specifically against chaos?

[@finnfeaver1196]

grey knights my son

[@pronz72gh85]

Exorcists....

[@coliimusic]

Now imagine when 9th rolls around and all of these are completely phased out :)

[@DooDooSpaghetti]

do you sell your own custom dice? i would like to buy some.

[@alexou857]

No blood angels...lol. Very nice armies thought. Very impressive.

[@Khorzho]

LOL, almost every Space Marine Chapter represented has been king of the hill in the Meta at one point or another.

[@nshilts5829]

what I'd love to see would be a 20,000 point mega game you'd need a pretty big board :P but that would just be amazing

[@tillbrainman6049]

Looks like those white scars on the left are ready to rumble. Look at all those Land speeders and nothing but a lot of tactical squads. Who's personal army is that?

[@tillbrainman6049]

Ah! commented before I realized all those tactical squads were actually bikers. Same question though?

[@patricklehigh9019]

WHAT! No angry marines.... down vote, unsub and rant on twitter. :) That is a sick collection my man. Much love keep the goodness coming :)

[@paulenan9636]

Patrick Lehigh always angry?

[@darthkillhoon]

How many of those are recasts

[@jaegerbomb269]

I have 46,000 points of Marines at present. Most my Armies are infantry.

[@theblueghost4097]

I’m trying to collect all the units of space marines and have them 10 times and paint all 10 chapters and I’m only using the forgeworld and Horus heresy marines for the ultramarines

[@jonguardia]

Where are the grey knights and deathwatch ?

[@axaldusteliora2956]

I Think A Nice Side Project Is To Make A Group Of Marines From ALL CANNON CHAPTERS THAT HAVE A SCHEME. Most Don't Have. Maybe 200-300 Max

[@MrSwordJ]

Damn my FB guess was close, I hedged towards 34k after back of envelop calcs.

[@studdley8564]

It’s all about the dark angels, my first 40k army

[@perrypchicken]

Second at 11:11pm I like tau but space marines are cool too And will you be doing a game with this army?

[@tadhgconroy8828]

Craftworld for eldar, forgeword for mechanicus, warband for orks and chaos, it goes on and on

[@bryanmcguire3747]

I love how accurate space marines are. A BS of 4 hits a land raider at point blank range OR a house fly at max range on a 3+.

[@storminmormn6283]

I’d love to see the Chaos collection side by side to the Space Marines!

[@yoyoyo9669]

damn how much would that cost just in plastic 30 grand?

[@wolffepaint3183]

There was a dark angle librarian in the ultramarine force

[@michaelalbright8611]

Oh my God what a awesome looking table if I work for you guys I would definitely be the marine guy they're just so awesome!!!!

[@Frankon81]

Its kind of funny when Matt is listing all the armies and forgot the best one Orks...

[@kshatriya1414]

I will forever be with my Ultramarine brothers, Until death tears us a part

[@theemperor-wh40k18]

The emperor attac The emperor protecc But must important he stucc in golden throne

[@spudward1801]

My Chapter is built specifically around the fact that they are lead by an oblivious, lunatic, military genius. They scavenge all supplies and ignore the codex, and are therefore seen as heretics. Yet they fight for the Emperor, and the madman Eris aims to prove the Diamond Wardens (the chapter which the original founders of this chapter were exiled from) wrong. Even though he's a heretic causing more harm than good.

[@AncientMushrooms]

What about daves blood angels? The most awesome chapter.

[@SalMi106]

I love it, but I really dont like the bright green with the yellow. But really nice army and paintjobs, I think this video is getting me back in the hobby:D

[@carldumulong]

Dark angel.... in blue.....*shivers*

[@paulenan9636]

I have to admit, I did not like Space Marines at first. But after reading a couple of novels about them... I still find them boring. Maybe I should give the Horus Heresy a try, but so far I am not sure if it would change my opinion. Too often the "struggle" they have is either something honour/respect related or their urge to be stupid glory-seekers while having the job to protect people. None of this seems really understandable, rather abstract to me and it is no character development I can be invested in. Since they are immune to fear, they rob their narrative of the chance to show Space Marines overcoming their fear which would give room for actual bravery. They can struggle to overcome a foe that beat them before, but if I am honest, I have not seen this being executed well. And without the fear of dying, I doubt it would have the same feel to it. The one good book series I read about them was the Night Lords triology by Dembski-Bowden and how the renegades try to stay alive and find a reason to do so. But well... They are not the loyal Space Marines. There are some exceptions, for example I do like the Raptor Chapter, which, while also being Space Marines, at least takes their job serious and uses actual Spec Ops tactics, instead of doing the usual "MUH HONOUR!" idiocy. But overall, I have to disagree with those who think they are still human. For me, they are a moving power armour with a battle-focussed brain attached to it.

[@vivimusjenos8174]

Just wanna say that you're very wrong in thinking its harder to make your own chaos faction. In fact its easier than most, for you see chaos is chaos and as such chaos does what chaos wants, which is whatever it wants. Plus with chapters going renegade every day......... yea its safe to say that you are only limited by your own imagination.

[@MrZoichi]

The Emperor Protecc

[@IAmTheStig32]

But most importantly, He stucc in golden throne

[@PurplePinkAndBlack]

he also atacc

[@Daniel-zc6ee]

No Legion of the Damned :(

[@amsfountain8792]

I would like to see a Eldar gathering too

[@OVERLOARD949494]

How about making a whole Legion?

[@malcolmfitzgerald6801]

That is some bright green.

[@GrandMasterNutBusterYoda]

The Emperor would be so proud.

[@maudepotvin8660]

That looks like John Deere army ... Divesting !

[@domenicobizzetti5636]

I want a showcase for Age of sigmar!

[@KRESHNEVIC]

Literally a chapter , nice

[@tj71520]

I have or rather had.. the same amount of points in ork models... sadly I lost 3/4 of my models due to a series of unfortunate events

[@johnja4922]

where can i get the shirt its awesome

[@DuinHark]

Imagine a battle 40k v 40k battle. Giant. Unwieldy, and very very long.

[@nathanial_summers]

You should make a deathwatch kill team from your collection of chapter's

[@ordohereticus5530]

If he thinks Ultramarines are by the book, he should take a look at the Red Scorpions

[@MEGAMAN-jw9dd]

I don’t care how much debt I go into or if I go bankrupt I will buy every single salamander that you have🤣

[@HugeAckMan420]

Nice, thats the equivalent of about 20 custodes!

[@mig1739]

All these comments are really old. Very cool collection!

[@VibrioidClover]

I love this Why I Love videos ;)

[@matthiasthefaithful8227]

So, where are the Death Watch?

[@mwgjosh5161]

Too cool to be lumped in with these chumps

[@psycosanches589]

I'm still kinda new to 40k, only been in for a few months, and my first army has been Space Marines. I tried playing Black Templars at first, didn't really like them, made a Salamanders successor I call the Komodos. Prefer salamanders alot more (even though I don't really use alot of flame weapons...). Although, if I'm honest, I kinda wish I had gotten into the hobby with a different army, now that I've played marines for several games. They just don't feel all that interesting to play, for me. Now, granted, my collection is largely primaris models, so many would likely say that that is my problem. I don't know...maybe chapter approved will give marines some new fun rules or change up the models, but right now I just kinda wish I'd bought into anybody else, instead. Main reason I started with Marines was because me and a friend of mine went halfsies on the Dark Imperium box and he was quite adamant in his choice that he wanted the Death Guard in the box. Now I'm just kinda stuck with this army...

[@punk6119]

Must see Dave's Space Wolves!!!

[@micha5112]

WE MARCH FOR MACRAGGE AND WE SHALL KNOW NO FEAR

[@monllorflorence74]

where are blood angels ?!
