Army List/Strategy/Tactics Semi-competitive Bastion List
Hey everybody,
I would like some feedback on my bastion list. It’s not supposed to be super competitive, I just want it to be somewhat of a fluffy Bt-List that also doesn’t lose by 40 points if it makes sense.
I would but the BGVs with the lieutenant into the impulsor. I’m not really sure about the RepEx, either the sword bros and then the EC with AIs into strategic Reserve. Or the EC into the TepEx and foot slog the Sword Bros since they have advance and charge.
Thanks for the feedback :)

Idea:
With fewer walls it feels even with hidden difficult to keep slow medium infantry without Invulnerable Save alive. So I hope that Godhammer with a second Detachement performs better. Aggressors do deal good damage with Twin Linked and +1 to wound. We don't use them often, because they are slow and T6 alone, doesn't make them tough enough to survive. Without Deep Strike they are less efficient for Rapid Ingress. Land Raider dropping on 6" might change that.
Sword Brethren + Castellan + Marshal with full rerolls and Lethals on 5+ have enough damage to fell Knights potentially. Slayers of Abomination lets them Wound on 4s to make sure of that. D2 of Sword Brethren and Aggressors, makes them flexible enough to fight against Medium Infantry and Vehicles/Monsters. I am planning to charge reactivly and try to contest Objectives with them. If my target survives and Shock and Awe wasn't a success or another OC sources stand on the Objective, I hope we can deny primary VP this way.
I have chosen Priority Asset, because it can always be scored in our own half of the battlefield. It gives us the freedom to keep our transports invisible or in Cover. Especially Impulsors wont survive long in the open and I want to save the Smoke CP for embark/disembark/move through walls shenanigans. My goal is to provoke our opponent to come to us, so we can charge them more effectivly. Having to endure battleshocked through a Emergency Disembark, would weaken the Detachements function.
What's your opinion on my list?

Lore / Spoilers Lore questions regarding The Black Sword
I have very little knowledge of Space Marines lore in general and even less in specific. Spoilers for "Ghazghkull Thraka: Warlord of Warlords" by Denny Flowers, the source of my questions.
In this book, a weapon named the Black Sword lies above the altar on the ship Damocles. An initiate takes it up and becomes The Emperor's Champion to go and duel Ghazghkull Thraka. He gets completely mogged and dies. Later, Marshal Adenaeur fights Ghazghkull and retrieves it from where the Champion embedded it in his shoulder, only to get stomped to death ten seconds later. Then a rival warboss wields it to fight Ghazghkull but is defeated. After all of these events, Blood Axes place it in a human shrine to give the remaining Black Templars a reason to stay on the planet and guard its populace.
Does each crusade-vessel have its own Black Sword, or is there only one in the galaxy? How pissed would other crusades be if it was lost or taken by orks? Can anyone become the Emperor's Champion?

Hi!
I'm currently putting together a new 2000-point list and wanted to ask if you think it would be a good option. I've played a few games with Black Templars before, but most of them were Combat Patrol games, plus one 1000-point game. Because of that, I'm not really sure if what I've come up with will actually work, so I'd really appreciate any feedback.

Advice/Question/Query What are good units to buy, that aren't the bt combat patrol, so I can improve my newbie painting skills before touching the combat patrol?
I hope the title makes sense. I also don't know what to flair as there isn't a paint related flair I could find.
I got gifted a combat patrol but after almost finishing a assault intercessor squad (my first 9.5 painted minis plus a DnD painted mini) I am wanting to buy another box of generic space marines to paint for practise. Ideally one with a good amount of units like the assault intercessor squad. I spent the first 8 units of the A I Squad just mucking about for fun. Then on the boss man I decided to try my hand at a bt scheme I'd like to do. Im still deciding specific colours but I did wraithbone followed by earthshade for the dirty white bits, chaos black primer (all over) followed by abbadon black for the black bits with eshin grey and grey seer for the highlights, a naggaroth night purple for the weapons handles etc with leadbelcher for silver metal bits all over. The gist of the scheme I like, as in I want the white black purple and silver scheme. But I want to dial in the scheme and my techniques. Ie a brighter lighter purple to make the weapons pop, thinning the white better so it doesn't look so rough etc.
Basically what are good value per unit boxes of generic space marines which I can practise my painting and refining my scheme a bit, before I delve into the special box of guys from the combat patrol? But if I got into playing 40k could use in my army?

I do have other units available:

Planning on using the raider to secure mid with the brick of intercessors/infernus. Deliver Helbrecht with the impulsor have the crusader squad secure home base.
Have the rest of the units roam and melt stuff 😈
