Could be fun to play with all those Lascannons and wonderful wonderful twinlinking. And if you need a distraction, 12 MSU Death Company will soak up a lot of firepower. Unless it's a heldrake, but that's what all *your* firepower is for.

As for tactics? Astorath goes in the pod with the two fists (really sucks to be whatever they get a charge off on) and the assault marines go into reserve, deepstrike them as combat squads. The two melta guns go tank hunting and the squad with the sarge hides, preferably on an objective. Possibly in the opponent's DZ. The rest should be self explanatory.

The DC without any upgrades are likely to be negligible against anything but MSU-spam.

The Droppod DC is all allone in the backfield of the enemy on turn 1 and will be shot to hell and back.

Predators without Sponsoons, are one very expensive fire platform.


I like the idea, but the volume of fire just seems too low for what it has to do.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563814/6261550.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563814/6261550.page GMT DC that only allows 2 DC dreads (if im right in thinking it's one per 5 DC)

The points saved could get either side sponsons or MM attack bikes]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563814/6261637.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563814/6261637.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563814/6261652.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563814/6261652.page GMT TBH I don't think that it will work so well. While I LIKE the idea of spamming razorbacks with DC I think that two razorback assault squads would be better as you can sneak in a melta or something. You don't have any AA either and that will bite you in the arse as you WILL meet some night scythes, vendettas, drakes or some other flier that will tear stuff up and you can't do anything about.

One death company in a land raider has always gone really well for me, so long as I can keep it in cover, and really distracts the enemy while you advance with razorbacks and are deep striking infantry.

A stormraven w/ lascannons is a must for a list 1500 or over and two razorbacks is great with an assault squad w/ flamer to hold an objective. If you want to kill MEQs take dante and some sanguinary guard as they will quite literally tear them up. Land raider death company is good and Baals are great to put pressure on the opposition force them to keep their infantry back for a few turns.

I don't think that MSUs of death company will soak up as much as you think, considering FNP only works 1 in 3 times. Best just use some S.priests on assault squads to make the equivalent of a death company that can hold objectives.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563814/6261659.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/563814/6261659.page GMT KP or objective game, I would love to face you.
