Assuming they didn't get fricked by the warp, Is it safe to state that the average Thousand Sons marine outclassed all other legionaries due to their psychic powers?

No? Just ask the average White Scar psyker.
If they weren't fricked by the warp they wouldn't have psychic powers.
Yes, it's why lesser legions like spaids wolves and gay guard were so jelly
the AI says no

Lmao
What does it think they were good at?
this ai plays space wolves no doubt
>supported the notion they all needed to die
Lmao
Jesus christ. That was a methodical destruction.
What A.I is this?
> average marine.
> when conflicts between marines numbers hundreds of thousands.
Also, space yiffs.
If the average TS is more powerful they'd have the advantage regardless
No. None of them were particularly exceptional at anything outside of sorcery.
At least they aren't as shit as the smurfs apparently
>weakest
>had the most conquered planets, and #4 or 5 in terms of battlefield victories
They did avoid direct combat when possible I supposed...
They were not talked about as such in the HH novels. The Legions that were talked about for being viewed man for man better then the rest.
>Space wolfs ( by the Sons of Hours )
>Sons of Hours ( called the best of us by a number of different sources )
>Iron Hands ( but largely only when faced in battle)
>Blood Angels ( by a number of different sources including Ultramarines )
> Emperors Children ( however there is a lot of call out of them failing to live up to their hype)
Pretty sure there's a novel were some other marines (space wolves I think?) talk about how they were struggling at some battle until a handful of TS showed up and destroyed everything with psychic powers in a few moments.
Fair point.
The average Thousand Sons marine wasn't a active psyker. Those were the ones turned into Rubricae after all.
But all the leardership from NCOs and up were sorcerers, and that gave them a serious force multiplier for their small size as a Legion.
After Magnus took over the recruits started coming from prospero and they were all psychic, that was their entire schtick
Yes it's like a whole legion of librarians on the downside there where a whole lot less of them.
>it's like a whole legion of librarians
Most Thousand Sons had little to no psychic powers, hence why they were turned to dust. Only a relative few were proper battle psykers.
>motherfrickers were able to fight not only the entire legion of the Space Wolves but Custodes and even TITANS to a standstill
>impromptu defence, no warning.
>only had their lines crack when the flesh change came back.
Psykers are scary, man.
He's got some bad gyno
Can A TS eat the brain of their enemy and absorb their thoughts and memories to learn how to defeat them? Can they take advantage of any of the genetic augmentations that separate a human from a space marine?
Oh that's right, TS cant do shit except float around in their sealed armour, trapped like an old fat in a wetsuit, and anything they do relies on them risking warp horrors.
t. 1st born
Yeah actually Ahriman does all of that.
Play it out on the tabletop. The other legions have their own special rules to even the playing field in tactical vs. tactical match-ups. WS can get to objectives quicker, IF can out-shoot them with their bolter buff, etc.
Not everybody in 1K Sons was a Psyker, they just had a lot more.
Isn't Ahriman the most powerful space marine alive?
Lucius, Kharn, Typhus, and Abaddon are all able to give him a run for his money. Other surviving traitor A-listers like Eidolon, Erebus, etc. have also not yet gotten stats outside of their HH incarnations.
