Fixture of Dakka

Mine is probably three way tie between Exorcists, Seraphim and Retributors/Inq with shooty. d6 Str8 Ap1 missile shots on the move is hot, bouncing Divine Guidance Flamers are hot, and just piles of cheap heavy bolters divine guidanced or firing back up for a plasma cannon with rerolls are hot. Those three seem to be the big killers no matter what is going on.

They have won be so many games now. You have to kill them all to stop them from scoring, and then I get them all back - and scoring again! One game they were replaced 7 times in 6 turns (they died top of turn one, I went second), and then claimed a winning objective.
This. In the opening rounds, they are great cover for the army. In the endgame, they rush forward to my entrenched Synapse parked on an objective.

Math sure can come in handy! |

Perfect Shot Black Templar Predator Pilot
|
Mine would be triple Vindicators. Black Templars are fast becoming the only Loyalists that can still take Power of the Machine Spirit on non-Land Raider vehicles, which makes taking three of them with the Machine Spirit, Dozer Blades, and Smoke Launchers is absolute gold for 489 points.

"War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling, which thinks that nothing is worth war, is much worse. The person, who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature who has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself."
-- John Stuart Mill
