The Ultramarines broke out some serious grav technology at the 2019 ATC. Check out Robbie G’s choice units that went head to head with all kinds of lists.
The 2019 ATC brought players from all around the country to roll dice. Looking at this Ultramarines army, it’s unique, beautiful, and rocks some high-toughness bodies!
Ultramarines Rolling Out the Grav: ATC Army Showcase
Coming from Kalen D. Ogle, most of this list’s power came sitting on some grav-plates. With three Repulsors shredding screens and anything else that got close, the Astreus was free to focus down the big stuff in the opponent’s army.
Of course, Roboute Guilliman had to oversee the entire situation and give a re-roll or two. If the Repulsors couldn’t handle a unit, he was the next man for the job. And you better believe he handled it well.
The tanks all match with a crisp blue-white color combo. But what really makes the army pop is the highlighting on the armor plates as well as the headlight glowing effect.
While these tanks are parked in some kind of Mechanicum-looking factory, these custom Servitors are standing above ready to execute any orders Roboute might give. These models are custom-made with Necromunda models and clips from Terminator arm hosing on weapons like Thunder Hammers. That’s a sweet conversion for a model that’s harder to come by!
Overall, this list was unique in the sense that almost nothing benefitted from its Chapter Tactics. However, with the main workhorse having FLY anyway, it doesn’t really matter. What’s your favorite model in the army? How would you counter this list?
