http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/16.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net BA codex and applying them to the BA Contemptor in the Apoc 2nd Ed book.

Looking at the rules for the 2 combined it looks pretty scary.

Am i right in thinking that Blood Talons are now Ap3?

So the death Company Contemptor would get 5 attacks on the charge at S7, AP3, re-rolls to wound.....and each unsaved wound generates an extra attack?!?!

crikey. Anything less than terminators or other walkers best keep their distance, and even then the Contemptor has Av13 and a 6++ to save itself with!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/490639/5008079.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/490639/5008079.page GMT ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/490639/5008330.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/490639/5008330.page GMT
While it is vulnerabel to powerfists that is dependant on the powerfist surviving, all its attacks are at I4 so in a MEQ squad it is likely to wipe everyone out before the powerfist gets a chance to strike.

As far as i can see the only way to reliably kill it would be to shoot it or take it in CC with a unit that can survive its rush of attacks and then hit back with something powerful (chain fist terminator for example).

just to make it more fun, hsi plan it to strap it to the back of a Storm Raben and have it accompanied by a squad of Death Company marines.

Vindicators required i think.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/490639/5008386.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/490639/5008386.page GMT IG blob squad, that sort of thing).
