What super heavy should i take for Space Marines?

[Xaric]

So I have a choice of the following

Fellblade Super-Heavy Tank (Love the design of the model)
Thunderhawk Gunship (Make a damn plastic kit already !!!)
Thunderhawk Transporter (Make a damn plastic kit already !!!)
Marauder Bomber
Marauder Destroyer

Did not put on here because I am not a fan of the model

Typhon Heavy Siege Tank
Cerberus Heavy Tank Destroyer

So before I make a big payout to forge world can you tell me the pros and cons to each of these wont be buying the thunderhawk but ill kit bash it so its cheeper due to Lord of wars are fully accepted in warhammer 40k 7th edition.

Thunderhawk!

It is the iconic superheavy of the marines!

[Psychosplodge]

Thunderhawk.

Because reasons. A fellblade is 30k anyway.

[Xaric]

and apparently the most stupidly expensive one

Blackadder has a lovely thread on how to build your own.

And it is the centrepiece model, you're probably not going to buy more than one...

When did you become a traveling FW salesrep?

[Xaric]

oh I know that just I feel the thunderhawk is for Apoc not a lord of war it can be in some cases but for 2000 points where I have 1 rhino 1 razorback and 1 pred with 2 stormtalon gunships I would not be making full use of the thunderhawk cargo space :( and I don't really like playing space marine full troop army I like a kind of half and half army

I didn't or the first line wouldn't be there. Plus I really want one myself :D

There's your problem, load it full of assault marines.

[Xaric]

by the way if I got a Marauder Bomber could I have both stormtallon gunships join it as a unit?

[Psychosplodge]

No idea, but thats a bit imperial Navy and not very space marine even if it is a pretty model.

[Xaric]

Hmmmm maybe ill just get a Stormraven Gunship and have it with the 2 stormtallons I have after all its cheaper :)

[ElectricPaladin]

Titan!

[Tyrendian]

I'd definitely wait a week and two days to see what kind of changes 7th brings in that department...

[Xaric]

Armor pen chart is being changed to a 7+ for explode result meaning they must hit with a AP2 of 6+ or a AP1 of 5+ or armorbane I feel this will make units with armor values more better in 7th :) that and I had 600 pts spare for a 2000 point game :D

[Tyrendian]

I wasn't just talking about vehicles in general... D weapons are getting a nerf I hear, and who knows what will happen to the availability and rules of Super Heavies in general...

Pretty sure the Stormtalon's escort rules specifies that they 1) can't escort eachother 2) only one escort per unit. The 2x Talon + Raven formation is an exception to this.

Imperial Knights. You can take up to three as allies, and they fit in with a fast Marine list.

[Xaric]

I dislike Imperial Knights for some unknown reason I look at them and think WHY !!!

[Houghten]

Screw Thunderhawks, they're cheap, mass-produced buckets of bolts! Scratch-build a Stormbird and have a transport that your Marines can feel proud of!

[Mr.Pickelz]

Thunderhawk is awesome, has tons of damage output and can get some heads turning when you whip it out...

If your doing a Salamanders or Dark Angels force, the Legion Glaive is noted as being more commonplace among those two legions and it wouldn't be too far of a stretch to see a "last of its kind" being deployed for an "important mission".

Fellblade is pretty cool, and has good rules to go with it (HE and AP shells), but both these vehicles lack something the Thunderhawk has... Flying. Not many things fly for space marines (until recently) and the Thunderhawk is by far the most iconic and expected piece of Space Marine heavy-hitting tech around. Glaives, Fellblades, and Typhons may bring the pain, but the Thunderhawk can make it rain...

Thunderhawk.

A Fellglaive is 30k. Fellblades have full 40k rules in Imperial Armour 2. Apparently no volkite weaponry has survived to the 41st millennium unfortunately.

Personally I would go for the Fellblade, but then I'm a treadhead. Although I do feel like a Fellblade is more the right size for a Lord of War choice than a Thunderhawk- Thunderhawks are just a bit too big.
