Thanks!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550332/6020017.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550332/6020017.page GMT Re:2500 Deathwing Casual SB for Fleshbane.

Also, unless you run out of FOC slots or you have a reserves issue, 5-man squads are more versatile than 10-man squads. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550332/6020072.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550332/6020072.page GMT Re:2500 Deathwing Casual

Is there a reason why you have claws on Belial? Given that the Sword is Fleshbane, I really don't ever see a reason to take claws. Either take the Thunder Hammer and Storm Shield for challenges, or take the Sword and SB for Fleshbane.

I was giving him the claws for the extra attack, but I might go with the sword...

As for the two 10 mans, they are for the Deathwing Strikes.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550332/6020112.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550332/6020112.page GMT 2500 Deathwing Casual TH/SS due to his Terminator Armor and Iron Halo.

Though... LC gives you shred and an extra attack, and reroll on wound. Sword give you a better chance to wound, but no reroll or extra attack.

I think, marginally, the the two LCs win out mathematically, thought I'd love to be challenged on that with actually calculations.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550332/6023507.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550332/6023507.page GMT 2500 Deathwing Semi-Competitive TEQs.

Also, if held in reserve all your Deathwing squads come in at the same time. You choose the turn for all Deathwing not per squad.

My advice is run Belial with your command squad and give them a heavy flamer, since he doesn't scatter you can roast anything hiding in cover, behind defense lines, or anything clumped or squishy plus you'll get to reroll to wound. Obviously the apothecary is a must but I've also toyed with the FnP banner and it works well too. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550332/6023911.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550332/6023911.page GMT 2500 Deathwing Semi-Competitive http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550332/6027061.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550332/6027061.page GMT Re:2500 Deathwing Semi-Competitive http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550332/6028529.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/550332/6028529.page GMT
