I am assembling one so I was just kind of looking at the best lay out over all. I also think that will be the easier conversion.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/551707.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/551707.page GMT Re:Best Warhound Scout Titan Lay out ?
just spam strength D

warhound-twin turbo x2

reaver twin turbo, triple laser blaster x2


its really frustrating that they didn't put different points values in....

VMB gets 10 hits, 8.4 wounds, 4.2 failed cover saves against T4 or T3. Only 3 failed saves against T5 or T4 that went to ground.

If you only average 2 models per 5" blast, the strength D weapon wins. No rolling to wound, no saves, no muss no fuss.

Plasma has a better anti-infantry profile. But each time you allow a new set of rolls to be required, you lose effectiveness. You have to roll wounds, so you lose all the wounds that come up '1', and you allow cover saves. That opens the door for a unit to go to ground and ignore 67% of your titan weapon output.

Not to mention vehicles... the hole of the plasma shot scatters off of the tank you were trying to hit, and its a wasted shot. Those D blasts count as a pen even if the blast is just kissing the edge of a tank. No roll to fail, just a pen, with a +1 to damage.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/552709.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/552709.page GMT Re:Best Warhound Scout Titan Lay out ?
You might get some people claiming cheese but it's your $400 modal. And the fact it's the only AT gun the Titan can even take it's almost required to take one unless you plan on only killing infintry and lets be honest for killng infintry 750 could be better spent elsewhere.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/553994.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/553994.page GMT Best Warhound Scout Titan Lay out ? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/554600.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/554600.page GMT Best Warhound Scout Titan Lay out ?

Every Titan should have at least two Inq/Mystic groups nearby.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/554765.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/554765.page GMT Best Warhound Scout Titan Lay out ?

Agreed, I have no idea why I typed such a short, simple reply above. Titans surrounded by TH/SS Terms + Mystic Groups = 40k Deathstar. Then again, my Titan sits in the Display case most time....]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/554816.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/554816.page GMT Best Warhound Scout Titan Lay out ? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/557355.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/557355.page GMT Best Warhound Scout Titan Lay out ?

If you read the front half of the apoc book it tells you that even back in 4th ed super heavies use TLOS. so I don't see why this would change.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/557706.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229391/557706.page GMT
