well actually more seriously it'd be whatevr the IG walker is. Walking your walker is painful sometimes.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/696727.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/696727.page GMT Re:Best unit to transport inside a Valkyrie?
The best units IMO to transport are either (Melta) veterans, or if you are playing for fluffiness maybe storm troopers.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/696735.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/696735.page GMT Best unit to transport inside a Valkyrie? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/696789.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/696789.page GMT Re:Best unit to transport inside a Valkyrie?
What about Grey Knight allies? Either a Sqaud of power armor or 6 Terminators... give my guard a nasty little surprise noone will be expecting.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/696929.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/696929.page GMT Re:Best unit to transport inside a Valkyrie?

IG and I doubt that it can x-port termies lol... They would be WAY to heavy lol. I would have to say Veterans with meltaguns or Stormtroopers. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/697563.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/697563.page GMT Re:Best unit to transport inside a Valkyrie?

The Valkyrie cannot be bought as a dedicated transport. Even if it were it would be irrelevant,a s 5th ed. allows any infantry model to embark in any transport vehicle. The only way it could possibly NOT be able to transport terminators would be if it expressly prohibited terminators, like it DOES, in fact, prohibit Ogryns.

As far as being too heavy... check out what kind of loads helicopters can carry TODAY, much less 40,000 years from now in a far more advanced future...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/697608.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/697608.page GMT Re:Best unit to transport inside a Valkyrie? 40K, it can transport anything in the IG codex except Ogyrn. I'd go with Veterans as the best thing to put in them.

For apocalypse games, it can transport anything except Ogryn. Therefore, you can put 6 assault terminators in it or 12 Khorne Berzerkers or 12 genestealers.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/697629.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/697629.page GMT Best unit to transport inside a Valkyrie? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/697647.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/697647.page GMT Best unit to transport inside a Valkyrie?
If you start talking allies that opens up many doors. Sisters of Battle with Melta Heavy flamer, Sister Superior with Book of St Lucious, combi flamer, Eviserator and a Cannoness added to the squad with an Inferno Pistol, Book of St Lucious and Master Crafted Eviserator sound pretty good. They are scoring and they have decent firepower against both infantry and tanks and are more survivable then imperial guard veterans. Can drop the cannoness if you want to save points but the added master crafted eviserator and stubborn leadership 10 make you stick around a bit longer if assaulted.

Storm troopers are not very good because of their huge cost and they do not score. 10 Veterans with 3 meltas costs less then 5 storm troopers with 2 meltas and the veterans score.

Terminators belong in land raiders because of the assault ramp. Inability to move the valkyrie and assault out really hurts transporting terminators.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/697664.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/697664.page GMT Best unit to transport inside a Valkyrie?
The insane size of the Valk makes Sanctuary/Mystics much more effective.

Put the Valk in the front center of your line against deamons and you should be albe to shoot almost anything that comes down at you while using the Hood to counter enemy PBS and Eldar crazyness.

The only problem is that you cant combine it with sisters who make the best single unit in a valk IMHO.

Tough choice, but the way mystics inside the huge valk hull can dominate such a large area of the battlefield is hard to ignore. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/699604.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/699604.page GMT Re:Best unit to transport inside a Valkyrie?
sisters of battle with melta/melta/combi-melta/book of stubborn

5x grey knights with 2x incinerators

inquisitor/mystics

First two are scoring and have 5+ saves versus lash, grey knights are weaken resolve immune

last one gets the 11" x 8.5" footprint to do its dirt with.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/699848.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/699848.page GMT Best unit to transport inside a Valkyrie? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/699863.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/699863.page GMT Best unit to transport inside a Valkyrie? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/699880.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/699880.page GMT Best unit to transport inside a Valkyrie? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/705719.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/238621/705719.page GMT Best unit to transport inside a Valkyrie?
