He has no invulnerable save, so, like, a squad of bikes with Grav Guns... 135pts. 145 if you take the combigrav. 270 - 290 if you put two squads into him, which will probably be a near guaranteed kill.

Centurions are more expensive, but would do it while blindfolded.

And Space Marines are by far the most common army out there...

With his 2+ armor you truly can't assume this. Fine, shoot with poisoned shots and you wound a lot, but unless those are also AP1/2 (which poisoned weapons rarely are), you will need 30 wounds, which propably means at least twice as much shots to kill him.

Posion and massed. DE typically have 4-8 venoms. Each venom puts out 12 posioned shots. A DE squad in rapid fire range has 20-40 posioned shots.

Imagine if just 3 of them shoot at mephy. 12 wounds, he fails 2 saves.

WHAT he didnt die in one turn?

Well what can mephy do while these 3 venoms gun him down?

....Nothing but run 6" towards the venoms

Venoms have a 36" range and can move 12" a turn and fire at full effect, and each costs 65 points. 195 points and it can gun down mephy without really trying.

If the DE want him dead, they have spammed str8 AP2 and can bring all their posion to bear.

Shoot him with LazCannons?

Better hope he isnt in cover, have curbolo attached to him, or have endurance with his other 2 powers. And it is not rare to have all 3 of these in affect.

Grav does well, but is definitely not an insta kill unless you have an army full of it. And even then Mephiston is tanking allot of fire power that isnt shooting at the rest of his army.

Centurions will basically insta kill it, but then again better hope hes not in a storm raven, which he is the majority of the time.

And Space Marines are by far the most common army out there...This is very wrong.

Fight my infinite swarms of Pink Horrors. I guarantee you'll roll at least 1-2 1s a turn from Blue Horrors alone lol


Just to confirm, aren't Tau / Eldar the top played armies atm?.. Last I checked, at Adepticon, every player table was a Tau / Eldar vs Tau / Eldar.... I think we saw 1 Daemon player tho....

I believe it goes Eldar, Tau, Daemons, Necrons, space marines. But Tau and daemons might have switched with 7th, and necrons and space marines are close so i dont know exactly where they fall.
