The Last Chancer Who Survived
|
So, I was looking at the options in my CSM dex earlier, and I came to realize that there are quite a few nasty tricks that can screw an opponent over if he's caught unawares.
Such things include:
-Sticking marks and icons on units to change the way the work.
-Bringing foot spam to a lascannon fight.
-Anti-MEQ everything!
-Ally with Daemons to get Fateweaver, let dickery commence.
-Free infiltration with the warlord trait.
And now I'm wondering about the other dirty tricks that other armies can pull off.

Tyranids - Doom of Malan'tai's spirit leach power combined with Deathleaper's "It's after me!" ability is a pretty fun combo.

and then Saga of the hunter on a WP w/ PP letting you outflank 10GH PP, PG, PG with attached TDA WGPL w/Cyclone Missile Launcher. Even better have a couple of RP in the drop pods. With luck by turn 2 you could have 3 GH packs in their backfield having all kinds of "fun".

I have a peanut allergy. It's really inconsiderate.

Indeed.
1/9 failure chance for Grimoire with Fateweaver.
You can get a crap load of divination to secure Forwarning.
You can even get some left over powers to try to roll Invisibility also, twice in fact if you count Fateweavers roll on Telepathy.
That would be more Screamers with a 2+ cover save rerolling 1's.

One I've just spotted today. As Battle Brothers, Dark Angels can ally in Lysander to join Dark Angel units. They then benefit from Bolter Drill. Add one Banner of Devastation to mix things up to crazy firepower.
40 bolter shots a turn from a Troops unit with rerolls to hit? Or perhaps 12 heavy bolter shots and 24 bolter shots from Devastators instead? Sign me up.
