The mega star consists of;

Farsight for precision deep striking
Loth for iron arm + 2++ invuln + gate
Aun va for deny wounds on AP value
Plasma/ fusion / gun drones

The fact that you can have loth at the front( iron arm to avoid instant death) to tank wounds on 2+/2++ and then have aun-va deny the wound on a roll of the AP or higher is insane- not to mention any auto look out sir rolls for mass fire.

I feel that this has the potential to be better than the shadowsight bomb but I've not played either!

The rest of the army consists of kroot, fire warriors, 2 drop pods and a fire raptor.

What do you think!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6739357.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6739357.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6739378.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6739378.page GMT

Loth *selects* his powers instead of rolls for them and is ML3.

Turns out aun va isn't an IC though so this idea is void. Probably for the best, it was looking to be far too good!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6739406.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6739406.page GMT LoS so gets barrage sniped. Loth only gets to select powers from one Discipline so can't have Ironarm and gate. Even if he could join it still wouldn't be a good thing.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6739795.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6739795.page GMT
in regards to your opinion on the taking the commander over the suit, they both do the exact same thing and if I where to run a Farsight bomb id rather save what points I can-
after all their aren't that many barrage weapons out there too worry about other than OB. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6740284.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6740284.page GMT TFCs and more importantly the new guard have Wyverns which are amazing and precision shots will be everywhere.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6741328.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6741328.page GMT
yeah they're cool at taking out weak troops but suits should hold up pretty well. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6745616.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6745616.page GMT TFCs kill buffsuits. Even with Shadowsun in the unit where they have to use S5 but in your unit they can use the S6 You're bouncing around and trying to avoid fombat this means you're likely to be bunched with the buffsuit near thr middle (and most congested area) for protection from other units. So each template should generate 3-4 hits. Lets round down to 3 thats 12 hits 10 wounds and your buffsuit dead plus a wound or two on the next nearest model. Therr is a reason that people have moved away from shadowsun in the bomb and that reason has been massively compounded by the new Guard codex.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6745724.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6745724.page GMT
anyway like i said, i don't run with these lists! I just thought it would be ridiculously awful if you could have aun-va and loth in a Farsight bomb but thankfully not!

cheers for your input.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6748298.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/590583/6748298.page GMT
