http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/14.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net I was wondering a few ways to beat him and his cheesiness, so I came up with this list.
(10) Tactical Marines w/ ML with Flak missiles (165 points)
(5) Scouts w/ four snipers and a ML with Flak missiles (85 points)
(1) Mortis dreadnought with two twin linked autocannons (135 points)
(1) Librarian with Power Field Generator and a Bike (115 points)

I decided getting the dreadnought because it just works better against the drake then Devs.
I was going to put the Librarian right next to the Tacs and give them the Invulnerable save against the marine melting drake, and a bike just to boost the Libby's toughness for good measure and because I had extra points.
I am fairly sure he plans on using his signature Heldrake with 10 or so cultists and a chaos lord or something cheap like that.
And then I think is going to have a ten man chaos marine squad.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547294/5966921.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547294/5966921.page GMT DP as well? That wouldn't leave him much room for anything else but a DP at 500 points can win by himself. What's your plan for that?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547294/5967218.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547294/5967218.page GMT DP to be honest, but he has begun his buying spree so probably soon. Would sniper scouts help against it much?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547294/5967334.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547294/5967334.page GMT
I might even consider dropping the bike (not completely necessary, IMO) and giving your Mortis Twin-linked Lascannons. They should do some serious damage to the drake.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547294/5967350.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547294/5967350.page GMT HP. I'd rather have 4 TL S7 shots than 2 TL S9 any day, especially considering the points differential in a 500 point game.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547294/5967658.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547294/5967658.page GMT

Another idea: would you be against running your tac squad at 5 man? It would allow you to throw in a Whirlwind, which will obliterate a cultist squad.

Here's my take:
Librarian - 95
-Power Field Generator

5 man Scout Squad - 78
-Sniper Rifles
-Camo Cloaks
-Heavy Bolter

5 man Tactical Squad - 95
-Missile Launcher w/ Flakk Missiles

Mortis Dreadnought - 155
-2x Twin-linked Lascannons

Whirlwind - 65

Leaves you with 12 points to play with. I honestly don't even think the Flakk missile is necessary, but it is nice insurance.
25 points for 1 BS3 S7 missile shot on the scouts is just too much, IMO. Especially when those snipers won't be shooting at fliers.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547294/5968433.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547294/5968433.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547294/5968504.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/547294/5968504.page GMT
