Units giving each other saves is far less controversial when applied to vehicles, because vehicles and infantry have different criteria for getting cover. Vehicles have to have the vehicle facing obscured, while infantry have to have half the firers unable to see half the unit unobscured each, making it possible, and not at all difficult.

Yeah and? People feel eldrad and yriel riding around with 10 warlocks and a full aspect warrior army also goes against the intent. Some people feel nob bikers also goes against the intent of the dex. I mean if he moves at all or loses 5 or so stormboyz the save is gone for at least one of the two.

the whole point is for turn 1 mainly not getting my trukks imoboizlied just the "chance" of something better and same with my stormboyz

You can drop the storm boyz, and throw a KFF on that big mek, potentially better results. And it will save you gobs of points to spend on lootas or tank bustas or snikrot.

Its not like i don't use the stormboyz they are pretty good with a 17inch to 24inch assault with jumping over things its just you have to play them carefully with a 6+save only =\

Stormboyz are inferior.

Its not that stormboyz are bad, its that 3 squads of them is bad. You have 6 squads of 12 boyz and 3 squads of 20 storm boyz, the whole army is fast moving bumrushing boyz. You could drop 2 squads, get a KFF, and some other nice stuff like lootas or snikrot. Snikrot is very scary in lists like this because you cant hug the back table with him around.

I agree. Still, 11 boyz + pk nob in a trukk with a ram and plank are 27 points cheaper than 11 stormboyz+1 nob stormboyz with pk/bp

lol landraider is a joke. Lol walk in the park av14.

Wow huron, you couldn't be more hypocritical and off base. Oswitz was initially cocky, but he saw the error of his ways (I guess) and apologized after losing. I respect that, like everyone should, and his tactics were actually sound and cool. He hasn't said his list is an auto win or anything like that, and if he did, he apologized for it. Geez.

EDIT: Way to change your post so mine is out of context, lol. no hard feelings

It looks like you have been trolling for longer than anyone else, and I m pretty sure you can be a volunteer for the "perfect example" :-).

I didnt receive any reply for my 2 pms, and I don't see why I should insist.

Ladies and gentlemen: The Cowardly Troll!

This thread has completely degenerated. Again, people are throwing the term "trolling" around like a bunch of pansy victims; don't be that guy. You're not billy goats.

Locking the thread.
