I chose to start this series with Space Marines because they are the most popular faction in the 40k game. With the experience of multiple tournaments and competitive practice matches under my belt the goal of this series is to give you a theoretical and practical road map to being able to understand the faction, realize its weaknesses and ultimately use this information to beat them in your games! This gives a unique chance to write this series as I am able to appreciate what weaknesses the Space Marine faction has from both perspectives, playing as them and playing against them. Many of you might have me pegged as a die hard Drukhari player, however the first army that I collected and played were the Black Templars. I am Skari, one of the Art of War coaches and I specialize in game mentality. This chapter will dive into the weaknesses of the Astartes Faction.
