Hooray its an article!

Really cool article - I like how you've gone over something with some unconventional uses and explained them as strengths for the vehicle (e.g. - it's not that the LR is bad, it's that you're not using it for what it's good at) To be honest the article alomst had me wishing Ravagers could carry small squads, as I could see some of these tactics potentially being applicable for them (yes, I'll be honest, I read your tactica to figure out new ways to pop LRs with dark lances). A fun read though I am curious about you noting how you usually get first shot against Raiders...I submit your local DE player needs to reevaluate a touch if this is happening to him. How do you get first shot considering the relative speed of the Raider? I guess with first turn if the Raiders aren't starting off board or behind cover you couuld pop off a shot, but it seems after deployment that they would have the speed to take the shot if they wanted it. I would love any further thoughts on that count.

Regards,
Thor.
