Looked like a lot of fun. If you haven't played against many super heavy tanks they are a shocker. That 12" move and fire everything at whatever they want is crazy.

Pretty happy to see someone use an Eversor to good effect also.

For sure, Typhons are definitely one of the best, ( top 3 IMO) super heavies in the game - pts for pts.

Also, assasins!!!! very powerful.

Assassins are not that good. I got a game where my opponent brought the Assassins Formation. Here are their fates:

- The Vindicare was mowed down by Wave Serpent and Rangers.
- The Evasor was IK by the Dreadknight's Psylencer.
- The Calidus was IK by Fire Dragons.
- The Culexus was IK by the Dreadknight's S10 attacks. This guy is supposed to be a specialist against psykers, but his ID attacks need 6 to wound the Dreadknight.

They are not that good, with T4 and not very good saves.

cheers man! I came 13th overall which is a bit of downer but alright for my first attempt! had a horrific time against some grey knights.

As for the list vs the marines... I dunno. I don't think it is optimised to fight that. but then again what is vs a Typhon?

Heirodule and FMC spam i guess!

Remind me what a typhon does again? Is it 2 shots that ignore cover? I used to know it's profile but I can't remember.

Don't change a thing in terms of the format of these reports. Fun to watch.

Standard British level of swearing going on, good show!
