What's better for the maulerfiend, lasher tendrils or magma cuters ? And for playing against which armies ?

To make it simple it depends on the role you want it to have.

lasher Tendrils, to take on units of models with lots of attacks and tarpit them, while one of your own units go get them.

magma cutters; Anti tank no-brainer monstrosity.

Lasher thendrils could works really good Vs, DE, Orks, Nids and other Horde types armies, seeing that most of them have low Armor on their vehicles anyway and have lots of models with 3-4 attacks, having the ability to deny them -2A per models is pretty darn good.

Magma Cutters, works good against all those armies who uses vehicles with at least a Av13.

in Both cases the Maulerfiend is really fast and can go after its target early in the game.

But be warry that he can't do everything on his own, you will need to give some kind of escort, preferably something has fast has him, cavalry,Bikes, Jump Inf,beasts and such.

Also this post as more its place in the 40k general discussion or rule/tactica section, then in presentation.

Hi,

Welcome to Dakka

Greetings! Welcome to Dakka Dakka!

But surely it against works you are going to want the extra attacks as you are going to have to deal lots of wounds and wouldn't it be tactical not to assault any squads that can harm the maulerfiend then the lasher tendrils are not neccesary and it saves 10 points
