I just made a doomsday device and just wondered if i should use it in my next game against tau. I also have a few questions.

1) After turn 6, (assuming the game lasts that long,) does it do something automatically or do you still have to roll a 2+?

2) And also can you deploy it anywhere on the battlefield or do you still have to be within your teams deployment zone?

Please help?

The standard reply is, its apocalypse so work it out for yourself, but since I'm feeling helpful...

You can only deploy stuff in your own deployment zone unless it has a special rule that allows it to do otherwise, which the doomsday device doesnt.

The doomsday device activates on a score of 7 when you roll a d6 and add the turn number, so on turn 6 you rolld 1d6 and add 6..giving you at least 7.

You should use it just because you get to be an evil overlord, and thats cool in itself.

I've built 3 and I'm planning on strategic re-doploying it into the enemy army while strategic redeploying myself away when it's about to det (1 turn warning).

Of course! Take thousands! I really want to use one myself. They are the coolest thing in Apoc I reckon.

I keep menaing to make one but am lackign inspiration. Coudl you post a pic of yours?

**Spellbound**

It's immobile.....you can't strategically redeploy it....

That's like saying you can use SR to move immobilized vehicles....

I loved mines when I used it. It turned on turn one and wackyness errupted. I demand was to bring back the Rainbo wariors Chaper, but for Chaos.
