Hi,

I want to play a drop pod dreadnought which is against enemy armor in my BA army. So i have 2 choices, The regular CC, Melta dreadnought. or the furioso with 2 blood fists and the Grapple+melta.
Which one is better for this role?

thanks and happy new year!

Well the melta gets you a shot after you land. I guess I like grapple+melta.

They're both good. Having a melta shot on the drop is key, so you at least have a chance to do damage before the enemy counterpunches him. I think overall I tend to favor the regular dread with MM. He's substantially cheaper, and if your opponent has a lot of meltaguns to make dropping within 6" too dangerous to you, the HS dread with MM can drop ~24" away and still do something.

Can I through out librarian with lance?
