So my IG get ruined by speed freaks, its not even close...

I've tried commissar blobs, with Yarrick, air cav, lots of stuff, I don't have enough chimeras for chimera spam, so that could be the answer. Any good tricks or lists?

Thanks]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2089841.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2089841.page GMT Speed Freaks Eating my IG alive... http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2089851.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2089851.page GMT Speed Freaks Eating my IG alive...
My guess is that you take lists with a lot of bloat and then just sit them on the field without moving, allowing him to reap your army like grain to the scythe.

Once again, I'd need more info to know for sure, though.

Colossus tanks shred anything that relies on cover and The manticores can hit hordes well. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090078.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090078.page GMT Speed Freaks Eating my IG alive...
if it's bikers, ap4+cover ignoring is your friend, heavy flamers on all your tanks and chimera's make sure they at least pay for themselves ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090123.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090123.page GMT Speed Freaks Eating my IG alive...

The bike give two saves a 4+ armour save and a 4+ cover save (and a 3+ cover save if they turbo boost but that’s a general bike rule). Hydra only ignores the turbo boost save, which is why they're rubbish (if they ignored all cover saves they'd have a use)]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090148.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090148.page GMT Speed Freaks Eating my IG alive... http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090183.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090183.page GMT Re:Speed Freaks Eating my IG alive... ID. a couple of Demolisher cannons should drop a couple of them. they will get their 4+ cover, but thats it. no armor or FNP.


Trucks(i assume a KFF) are easily popped with Auto-cannons. if you can't get past 4+ covers Basilisks and whatever the 4 missile tank is can get past the cover and have a good chance of killing the AV10 open topped vehicles.

Orders are your friend. use the order that forces cover rerolls. that will strip away cover in a hurry.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090558.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090558.page GMT Speed Freaks Eating my IG alive... http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090561.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090561.page GMT Speed Freaks Eating my IG alive... PCS inside it'll even count as scoring.

The PCS with 4 flamers dropping on an exploded Trukk or BW can actually fry an entire Boyz squad in one shooting phase.

Very unfortunate you don't have more chims as those will indeed get you much more longevity, both from having more mech on the table and by being able to deny assaults to your squads.

The plasma executioner with sponsons is another vehicle that I've found does very, very well against Orks; Ap2 seems like a total waste but the multiple templates enable it to really shine. When Vendies are blowing up vehicles, the Executioner can land on 6+ models with a direct hit. I've forced opponents to scoop entire Boyz mobs after five Executioner shots.

Hydra squadrons are also great. For 150 points you can throw out 14 S5-7 shots that are darn useful at blowing Trukks/bikes and also at chopping up Lootas at range.

My 'optimal' list would have 3 Vendettas with door guns, 4 Hydras in 2 squadrons, a single Executioner with sponsons, and the rest of the points invested into troops in chimeras with flamers and autocannons.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090702.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090702.page GMT Speed Freaks Eating my IG alive...

Eradicator would be better ... ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090860.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2090860.page GMT Speed Freaks Eating my IG alive...
Yep it seems that hell hounds and Chimeras with heavy flamers must be the way to go. Regular flamers still get you the 4+ save and FNP so the suicidal PCS seems out. Although they would do great against boyz.

Against the Nobs you want Str10, instant death and no FNP, cover saves sucks but thats life; what you really want is 1-2 manticore rocket launchers. Hell hounds work nicely on the other bikers.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2091321.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2091321.page GMT Re:Speed Freaks Eating my IG alive...
Bikes=Anthing with S 7 or higher should do the trick
Deffcoptas= Don't see why you should have any problem with these just use above tactic

Always keep your army on the move! Even if it takes away your vechicales shots, it will keep them alive! Don't expose Rear armor! Keep a blob of guardsmen to provide a screen around vechicale if you encounter Power Klaws! These are deadly in CC against vechicales!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2091348.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2091348.page GMT Re:Speed Freaks Eating my IG alive...
ANY VEHICLE THAT HAS A HF

Psyker Battle Squad = YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST TAKE A PBS. Bikerz run like lil girls when you use Weaken Resolve at the right time. Concentrate fire on the Nobz, until they take enough wounds to make a leadership test, and then pop them with the PBS. Plus a S9 Blast will ID anything except a warboss.

Eradicator = No armor / No Cover

HellHound = No Armor / No Cover

Bane Wolf w/ HHF = Can move 12" and still drop 2 Templates that will ignore Cover/Armor

Devil Dog = 24" range small blast will hurt if it hits, and you can move 12" and still fire it.

Vendetta

Manticore / Medusa / Demolisher

Colossus = No Cover/No Armor]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2091507.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2091507.page GMT Re:Speed Freaks Eating my IG alive... IG is actually THE mismatch for speed freaks.

PBS+Manticore kills all nob bikers within seconds
Manticore kills Battlewagons within seconds
Vendettas kill battlewagons in the side armour easily and nobs also
Hydras get rid of buggies and kanz
chimeras+veterans>trukkboyz

so take a basic tournament IG and watch the speed freak getting blasted]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2091551.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/326352/2091551.page GMT Speed Freaks Eating my IG alive...
3 PBS

3 Manticores

You win.

Like, every time.
