http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/69.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net FW models so I can play in both 30k and 40k games. With that being said, what are people's thoughts on Raven Guard armies and what has been successful tactic and unit wise? Basically a noob with them so all help is appreciated.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721591/9272091.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721591/9272091.page GMT
My advice would be to take a solid core force along the lines of the Pinion Battle Demi-company (even if you don't want the formation). Scout Squads in Land Speeder Storms are a personal favourite, as are simple, mechanised Tactical squads with a generalist loadout.

I take Land Speeders for my Heavy Weapons, rather than Devastators or Centurions, and I like Predators for their aesthetic and range.

The linchpin of my army, however is almost always a big, 10-man Assault Squad accompanied by a Chaplain. Being Fearless is invaluable, as is the ability to pump out a lot of attacks. They can't challenge some of the more optimised assault units you find nowadays, but nor should they.

Regarding playstyle, by far the most important thing to remember is that while other Chapters may question our honour, there is certainly no honour in defeat. You will win by stacking the odds in your favour in every engagement, sending your strong units against your enemy's weaker ones and bending your battle-line to avoid his strength. You're not in the business of head-on assaults.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721591/9272429.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721591/9272429.page GMT http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721591/9275871.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/721591/9275871.page GMT
