FLGS manger is hosting a tournament just to see what stupidity ensues and it sounds like a blast to me so I asked if I could use a pylon insteadof the cheesey gargant and he said sure all superheavies are aloud as long as you ask him in advance since he might not want a reaver with msu scouts and a libby.

Anyways enough jibber jabber lets let the cancer ensue

So tactics are fairly simple, either I get t1 and start the pylon on the board and hide my crypteks and anrakyr on opposite sides while the pylon kills whatever superheavy it needs to or it DS on t2 to give my flyers a 5++ and gib tanks and big things. I figure anrakyr would be optimal for something like this since I can steal a gun off of that revenant and shoot his own army (and if my opponent bubble wraps it then it can shoot itself since the bubble wrap will most likely put the revenant in the blast radius of its pulsar) the crypteks are for the t1 turtle to make sure I don't get tabled since they will deploy on the opposite corner of anrakyr and pop the pulse for nightfighting t1. The comms relay is to make sure I get as many flyers on the board in one turn as possible so I can put as many units down as possible incase I face a classic tau gunline filled with interceptor everywhere.

Thoughts? I'm curious to see how this might play out vs standard eldar revenant cheese and other nasty lists like that

How about the Pylon being in IA 12? How good is this superheavy?

I love it as a superheavy killer but it got updated in apoc damnos so now it costs more for pretty much the same thing
