Squad mode is awesome. Blood Angel Devastators, not so much. Trust me on this.

Hmmm, I wonder how those squad based talents are chosen... as a squad? Or individually?

Anyway it sounds awesome.

Looking at the available classes, I'm thinking a 5 man team would ideally consist of 2 Devastators, 1 Assault Marine, Librarian and Apothecary.

I would want to play a Devastator myself. Heavy bolters and the Devastator bonus to thinning hordes seem to be the most efficient combat option.

A Tactical marine(from the available rules) seems...pointless.

Haven't seen the rules for Techmarines, but the concept sounds boring. Repairing vehicles? Seriously?

Still, Temple Assassins > Space Marines

Having had everything go wrong in an internal playtest, I'd say Techmarines are a godsend, especially once you start factoring in the Servo-Harness. Tacticals seem pointless until you realise they can buy into just about all the most flexible combat tree skills, meaning that while you can't outfight an Assault Marine or outshoot an Devastator, you can come close to doing both.

For me, an ideal squad would have one of each member.

Saw the preview adventure "The Final Sanction" on FFG's website...and just found out about it's sequel, "Oblivion's Edge".
Read through Final Sanction...I can imagine how a game would be like but not that sure.

Very curious about the Deathwatch RPG but clueless where to begin as I haven't played an RPG before.
Anyone running these adventures? Myself (and a friend) would like to try it out.
Thanks

br1an - I can run a game for you and your mate. I'll PM you. Anyone else who is interested, drop me a PM. If we all enjoy it, maybe it will turn into a campaign!
