I ran lethal level 10 (prestige 3 tbf so I had some prestige perks). I was HUNGRY for that big amount of xp/wanted to see if I could do it. Ive only ran lethal with bots one other time and It was on bulwark.

I know its nothing crazy impressive, but its a personal win and I felt like such a badass 😎. I fought for my LIFE as you can see with the 6 downs lol. It didnt give me a guardian relic till that last section before the elevator that goes up and out, then I got lucky and found one at the end of that upper stretch before dropping down into madness. With some strategic stim uses to clear mortal wounds I managed to pull it through.

I did it to challenge myself, and because I didnt want to be that guy that everyone complains about who was running lethal at level 10 haha.

The number 7 in the top right box vs in this case the 0 for the bots. What do those numbers mean?

Should I do the one pauldron with the emblem and do white and just call it some super decorated badass emperors champion? 😂 or do i say fuck the emblem and just personally know in my heart hes a black templar? Also any of you people who know lore better, is there any case in which a space marine of any chapter really would actually rock two pauldrons that both dont leave room for or cover up a chapter emblem? It seems like a no no but the devs of this game seem to be pretty lore concious and still gave a couple classes pauldrons like this on both sides.

So this run i just had was like damn near ONLY spawning spore mines. In fact, now that I think about it, any time the match itself spawned anything from wave timers or reinforcements that was non extremis obvi, it was 100% SPORE MINES. This is just one little 30 second snippet of literally a "massive wave" that was 100% all spore mines. Even on the hive tyrant fight, I almost got fucked by 100 spore mines while he phase transitioned and I was trying to dodge the Shockwave from hive tyrant and 14 spore mines blowing up next to me back to back 😂. I pulled through, I managed to get the gene seed to the end and all (it was only on average, I just needed one more super quick win before bed to unlock a cool helmet haha).

Has anyone else experienced this? Is this potentially a random bug that occurred? Or just suuuuper bad luck?

For all of you lore enjoying black templars, Ive been trying to progress my tactical as if hes actually ranking up slowly haha. But ive come to a crossroads with the pauldrons. I like to express some cool lore accurate stuff but also veer a little here or there, doesnt need to be perfect. As far as a tactical goes though, in the heraldry would a tactical fall under the "assault squad" and or "close support"? Which would be marked with the white pauldron, black emblem and red trim on the pauldrons. Could a tactical be a sword brother technically? Or is that really only something given to the super heavy melee only guys? I do use a lot of melee on tactical still as a melee lover haha so maybe it could be applied, but also I was thinking of one of the white pauldron esthetics mainly because ive made some cool sword brother veterans with the black and red theme.

What are your thoughts? Here's the two looks I have right now im debating between.

So a little while ago I got like 8 collector packs, they did alright, I got a foil ugin, 3 dragon eye lands one foil forest, craterhoof borderless foil, return to nature borderless foil, betor kin to all alt art, and a marshal flats full art foil. Well.... I bought 4 more because I felt like these packs were finally giving me the goods I didnt get out of my pre-order collector box.... and I got the dragonscale of the same, the marsh flats (in the same pack was an ugin and foil dragon eye mountain lol).

Pics are bad because I was literally shaking. For reference... I have 6 dual color dragon decks lmao. I have a problem with dragons 😂. I started around khans/fate reforged. The new tarkir set gave me so much joy and nostalgia, and its given me some terrible pulls, not a single special guest in my play box or collector I pre-ordered, but I kept buying it lmao and its finally decided to show me some love 😭.

Krak grenades are king for these fuckers, but the unexpected zoanthrope dispatcher is the melta bomb. The first time I did it was sheer desperation for survival, the times after that... for the THRILL. Well and not having krak grenades.

Im curious how many people have melta bombed zoanthropes 😂. It feels like my signature move at this point to recklessly grapnel in, drop the melta mid air and detonate while rolling away. The xenos know me as the melta bomb menace 😎. Everytime I do it I feel like space marine Jason Borne lmao.

Don't mind the embarrassing attempt to block the red attack lmao. It was the end of a massive wave with zoanthropes coming in, my brain glitched under the stress lol

Im between 3 options, I like them all equally so I figured id let reddit help me pick. I like some good ol lore accuracy but usually give way with a couple small details to personalize it a lil.

I like them all equally tbh so I figured id let reddit decide 😅. Which of these three should I go with for my helmet of my ravenguard?

Ive had the game for 30 days now. Due to being out of work for knee surgery I've basically been playing space marine 2 about as much as a full time job 😂. I had a pretty gnarly meniscus tear thats had me out of work since February (surgery had to be scheduled like 3 weeks out). I go back in 4 weeks, ill update with when I go back to work to see how many hours I put in, in about 2 months of time off lol we'll all see how ridiculous it is together! So far ive beat the campaign, max prestiged bulwark, then assault, now vanguard just hit prestige 3 before im going to bed tonight/this morning lmao. Im basically getting paid to just play and love space marine while im on leave and I cant help but feel a bit grateful for that 🙏. The knee situation sucked pretty bad for a bit, not so bad at the present but it was a ROUGH one.

Has anyone else noticed that Captain Iden is missing his all powerful stache lately? I dont think its some cannon event where he shaved 😅. Bring back the almighty stache!

Black templars are my favorite, it have a bunch of cool black tenplars, but the bulwark one here is my chaplain, I think its my favorite. Then theres my celestial lions veteran sergeant, then my lieutenant crimson fist, and then outside of my love for all the rogal dorne gene seed I decided to throw in my ravenwing dark angel because hes badass 😂.
