As the title so eloquently puts it, this page is devoted to Black Templars army lists that I have battle tested for competitiveness. With some exceptions, these are the lists I am currently using in games and tournaments. Each entry will include the actual list and points values, as well as basic to advanced tactical explanations. Unless otherwise noted, these lists will be built primarily to 2000 points. Please note, these are lists that I enjoy using in their current form. You are not obligated to run them exactly as listed, nor can I guarantee your success with my list, as experience and skill as a player contributes greatly to how well you do in a game. Consider these a guide, not the answer. Ultimately, you need to use what you are comfortable with, as that will give you the most success. Nevertheless, I wish you good luck if you wish to use my lists. 😀
The army lists will be ranked in the order of how competitive I feel they are. The lists at the top are the most competitive, while the ones at the bottom are more casual in nature.
