Why would you buy a white dwarf nowadays, it's pretty much just paying for advertisement nowadays.

Exactly why I haven't bought one.

Well one had the pre-release WD sisters codex.

All news comes from belloflostsouls.
All of the 40k news blogs basically link and repost each other, so you only need to check one to be "in the know"
More rumor goodness:
Tau Q1, 6e + Chaos over Summer, Eldar Q3.
SUCK ON THAT SPEHSS MEHRINES!

It'll be interesting to see if Ward'll try and alter what happened in The Chapters Due with the daemon M'kar.

How do I deal with armoured units as a space marine (that isn't tanks)? Dreadnoughts?
[QUOTE=Dick Tracy;33198756]How do I deal with armoured units as a space marine (that isn't tanks)? Dreadnoughts?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, that and PF and Meltaguns and heavy weapons in Tac Squads and hammernators.
But Dreadnoughts with as many autocannon as possible will also serve the purpose.

Mix Devastator units them into regular tac formations

Would you say the blood angels codex (all death company) would adequately represent the rage and fury of angry marines on the tabletop?[/QUOTE]

Painting Blood Angels yellow would suffice if you play with douche bags. The pdf is where true rage lies.

Personally, I buy it for the masterclasses and painting guides. As I've mentioned before, the closest hobby store is 600km away, so I rely on White Dwarf and the internet to learn more about it, and the magazine, has usually been pretty good for me to learn from.
Does Game workshop have any branches in Germany? or is it England exclusive?

Google, the internet.
You're better off finding an independent retailer, somebody who undersells gamesworkshop.

They have long range and they nearly always manage to penetrate a vehicle, i can't remember the exact details, though.
The Chaos Marine in my soon to be started Black Crusade session owns the last squat in the galaxy. You guys better protect him.
[QUOTE=Dick Tracy;33190937]Can't I just convert one of the units in the Command Squad and just call him force commander/commander/captain? :v: I don't plan on playing in any official GW shit anyways. =)[/QUOTE]
Well, i guess so, but it'd be a waste of models.
My word of advice, just get an HQ unit like a force commander or captain.
Alright, I've listened to your advices (thanks for the helpful input everyone, I really appreciate it!) and I've (temporarily decided) that I will now get the following force when I can:
[code]
HQ
Space Marine Captain
TROOPS
Tactical Squad (With Missile Launchers?)
Tactical Squad (With Flamers?)
ELITES
Dreadnought (Equipped with Autocannons I assume?)
[/code]
That should be a decent army to tackle pretty much anything I guess?
(One friend is interested in getting SMs too, one is getting IG and the others are still thinking about it)

Mh, at least get the captain.
Do you have a space marine codex yet?
It could help you choose what units you would like to have in your army.

Going by that build, I'd suggest this:
[code]
[U]HQ[/U]
Captain
100pts
[U]Troops[/U]
Tactical Squad (Rhino or Razorback transport)
-Meltagun
-Multi-melta
185pts
Tactical Squad
-Flamer
-Heavy bolter or missile launcher
180pts
[U]Dedicated Transports[/U]
Choose either one
Rhino
35pts
Razorback
-lasplas
75pts
[U]Elites[/U]
Dreadnought
-Twin-linked autocannon OR assault cannon
115pts
615pts total with rhino, 655 with razorback[/code]
There's still some weaknesses in the list but it should let you pop some tanks at 750 pts
[editline]9th November 2011[/editline]
Also please note that if you take the razorback, the meltasquad will have to split into combat squads decreasing the survivability of the AT infantry but increasing your overall AT and MEQ defeating capability with the lasplas

Wouldn't you be better off getting a Chaplain at that points value?
A chaplain would be good in a more assault-oriented army
His special rules will kinda go to waste when using only tacticals
[editline]9th November 2011[/editline]
He could also roll a librarian, better value for 100pts

Yeah, or that. Couldn't remember if Librarians were also that cheap. It seemed a shame to take an HQ without any sort of power weapon.
Libby doesn't get an invun, though.
Don't get the vanilla codex, get the space wolf codex.
If you really want to use devastators then Space Wolfs are your homeboys because LONGFANGS!!! LOOOONG FANGSSS!

You're down about $120 USD and you only have 10 CSMs and one HQ
Too bad normal CSMs are useless until 6e.
Hey, can always roll with plaguemarines.
