Very interesting list, whats your purpose with the sentinels with missiles? Ive found scount sentinels with lascannons that outflank to be really effective. Although most of the time my opponent is the. Scared of them and blows them off the tables lol

Only downside is hydras really arent great at dropping flyers. They dont have interceptor so if a flyer comes on it will have a chance of shooting up ur hydras and killing them before they fire at the flyer.

**Lemartes12**

The missles deal with both armour and Troops (krak and Frag missles)
And that sucks about the Hydras i thought they had Skyfire. But 4 twinlinked shots from each should help.

**Kasrkin52**

Swap hydras for a Vendetta for great anti air. Can shoot ground and air reliably. If you are keen on taking sentinels I would take the scout variant - cheaper and can outflank. You are currently spending 195 for 3 missile launchers...

**tankboy145**

4 shots a hydra, I think Its only 2, I dont have my codex to check, Im pretty sure each hydra puts out 2 twinlinked shots a turn.

**Talore**

Each hydra autocannon has 2 twin-linked shots a turn, but the hydra itself has 2 hydra autocannons, for 4 twin-linked shots total.

I hope they make it 1 4-TL-shot cannon next codex so you can move and fire effectively, instead of snap-firing half of the shots if you move.

**morfydd**

Hydras do have skyfire ..and anti jink ..but not interceptor....so the vendetta is by far the better choice for anti Air/Tanks/TEQ...and you can save youreself a Chimera for Transporting a melta vet squad ..(Just drop them off by Grav Chuite)

**Lemartes12**

i picked the hydra because i HATE taking flyers and with 48" it should be in range(i got rid of the valkary i did have because of the new flyer rules.)
