Rangers are probably the most lackluster because they don't add very much for you except as a backfield objective holder. I give my tech-priest Dominus the stasis field for a 2++ invul when he goes to ground. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/674422/8389353.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/674422/8389353.page GMT Need help with War Convocation ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/674422/8389436.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/674422/8389436.page GMT Re:Need help with War Convocation http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/674422/8390049.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/674422/8390049.page GMT Need help with War Convocation http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/674422/8391414.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/674422/8391414.page GMT Need help with War Convocation
Is convocation an alfa strike army or do I whittle my enemy down?
I'm an aggressive player and often use my armies to attack, I'm no gunline player. How do my playing style fit an AdMech army?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/674422/8391422.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/674422/8391422.page GMT Need help with War Convocation

Try and fit a Flesh Tearers detachment in there, you can get up to 6 drop pods for your skitarii]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/674422/8391452.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/674422/8391452.page GMT Need help with War Convocation

Most commonly I play against a War Convocation with Flesh Tearers allied in (for the drop pods mainly). My buddy will drop those Kataphrons (Johnny 5s as we call them) as objective/board control, usually to where I absolutely cannot ignore. Or he'll put his Vanguard w/ Plasma in the Pods, put em backfield and make them hard to ignore. Yeah, they die most of the time, but can put out some shots, and if you can reach cover, will survive a lot longer when you pop that 2+ cover save.

Infiltrators have always been a hyper aggressive unit that, honestly, I despise. They play just far enough forward that if I engage his other units with anything other than long range guns, I risk getting tied up by said infiltrators. The Neurstatic Aura can really hurt when tied up against them. Use cover and move them forward and they become outstanding harassment units.

He also runs his Knight Crusader with the Avenger Gatling Cannon, which has always done some work.

I wouldn't describe it as a true alpha strike list, but if you like playing aggressively War Convocation can certainly work for you, but there is some finesse to it's blitzkrieg method.

We play 1850 points 99% of the time, so at 2000 you definitely have room to see which units really benefit from your playstyle.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/674422/8391515.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/674422/8391515.page GMT
