So let me get this straight
As per page 105 Gun Emplacement Rules, any model can man the gun (and receives a 4+ cover for being behind it)

A dreadnought is a model

As per the Interceptor rule on 38, a weapon (quad gun) can be fired at the end of the enemy movement phase, the weapon can not be fired but the firing model (dreadnough) can fire a different weapon if it has one (TLAC)

So basically, when something arrives from reserve, it takes 4 TL'd Autocannon shots (if it's a flier, these are at full BS) and then on my turn, it takes 4 TL'd Autocannon shots.

Now I don't know if this is some novel idea or not, but it sounds awesome to me since I was planning on using the same slot, and points cost, to field a much squishier, less accurate, less damaging squad of Devastators. Instead, I can spend those points on a dread to man my guns

Correct me if my logic is unsound.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562203/6233045.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562203/6233045.page GMT FAQ'd a while back, vehicles cannot man gun-emplacements.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562203/6233051.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562203/6233051.page GMT
I have thrown Devastator squads of 6 (with a Sanguinary Priest) on the Quad gun Aegis line, with the Sergeant using his Signum to let the extra model shoot better.

But otherwise, we don't have a lot of anti-flyer options, other than the Storm Raven, which I can never roll well enough to get on the board in time to do much. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562203/6233242.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562203/6233242.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562203/6233332.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562203/6233332.page GMT DA (who are very lacking in AA) I would almost always include a Mortis Contemptor.

2 ideal builds:
- pure AA: dual TLLC and CML
- a bit more multi-role: dual Kheres ACs and CML

I personally liked the 2nd version better as it can handle many different situations and brings a major threat factor to the field.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562203/6234270.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562203/6234270.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562203/6235943.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/562203/6235943.page GMT
