Got the new IG Dex today And as i was reading it i looked at the stats of the manticore. I was taken back by the power this guy has. i think i may put in my new list and with that being said do you all think we will see more of these in lists in the future?

S AP TYPE
10 4 Barrage D3 large blast

now it just has 4 shots (i now 2 griffons are still cheaper then 1 manticore)

It's definately got potential.

I think that the lack of a model (other than forgeworld) will hamper it's use.

Great tank, problem like Scott says is lack of model and the fact its competing with a lot of other very good choices in the heavy support section (and you can only have 1 for every HS choice, rather than 1-3 russes etc)

1 manticore cna put out a world of hurt - its the long range horde infantry killer, and is high enough strength that marine ICs have to worry due to ID. Hell even warbosses dont like it....

The forgeworld model is fantastic, and not badly priced either. I think given the amount of dakka 3xvendettas put out, with a LR squadron or 2, that unless you're above 2k points you should have room in the HS slots.

Make your own. The missiles that come with the Valks are the perfect manticore missiles.
