Editing Warhammer 40,000/9th Edition Tactics/Space Marines (section)

===March of the Dreadnoughts===
With the introduction of {{W40Kkeyword|Core}} keyword, a lot of vehicles parking lot list are now dead, but there is one {{W40Kkeyword|vehicle}} that has {{W40Kkeyword|Core}}, Dreadnoughts. With the improved Techmarines and able to still interact with all the buff heroes, in additional to duty eternal being built-in, Dreadnoughts look to be a powerful attack platform at close and long ranges.

There are a couple ways to give them Objective secured, albeit only counting as one model and not the multiple models some other monsters get.

#The Chapter Ancient's '''Steadfast Example''', The Generic '''Rites of War''' and The Crimson Fist's '''Stoic Defender''' warlord traits which all which basically all gives objective secured to units within 6 inches.
#The Salamander Warlord trait '''Never give up''' and the Deathwatch Warlord trait '''The Ties That Bind''' Only let you pick one unit within 6 inches. 
#Icon of Crusade relic if your playing crusade.
#Black Templar stratagem, '''Strength of Conviction''' and Castellans of the Rift Stratagem '''This is Our ground!'''.
#Captain Sicarius has an ability to give a core unit within 6 Objective secured until the end of the round.

So your most reliable way to get objective secured for as many dreadnought as possible is a Crimson Fist detachment with Rite of war warlord trait,  use the hero of the chapter to give an Ancient Steadfast example and the Crimson fist unique trait for three objective secured six inch bubbles. Use a pair of forge world Chaplin Venerable dreadnoughts to hold the non-ancient trait's and you can now field a darn near all dreadnought army capable of muscling objectives away from troops, and generally being able to butcher troop's because you have a shit ton of angry dreadnoughts.

At 2,000 points you can throw down 15 dreadnoughts before you spend points on upgrades. Is this a good army? Probably not but it is a hilarious one.
