Of course, we don't know what hte new changes to the defilers might be (they could get Marks) *AND* if Forgeworld becomes legal, then consider taking Marked Decimators.<br /><br />The problem I see with Epi is that you need wounds to get the Tally up. It's great for blob armies, but against a Draigo/Lysander/Logan/Belial Wing with low model counts, you will be hard pressed to get the counter up to where you want it...stormbrightnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229245860561585942.post-34489202947184546272012-07-24T23:55:42.324-07:002012-07-24T23:55:42.324-07:00According to the latest batch of rumors, it appear...According to the latest batch of rumors, it appears that Havocs in the new book will be as cheap as Long Fangs.

You can get 7 Havocs with 4 AC for about 175 points, 25 more than two oblits. While you lose versatility, you gain weight of fire. 2 shots each at STR7 and BS4 add up, and mitigate bad rolls. Other people espose the ML, but it's currently overpriced, and all you gain is 1 STR at the cost of 1 shot. You biggest weakness would be against AV13+, but your special weapons in the PM squads can handle those.<br /><br />Also, Infantry Autocannons look hella nice, and fits the slow, infantry-heavy plodding advance of the Death GuardTrupienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229245860561585942.post-35177655123197939512012-07-24T23:29:16.915-07:002012-07-24T23:29:16.915-07:00I don't know man, I have to see the full rules...I don't know man, I have to see the full rules for them first.HEROhttp://lkhero.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8229245860561585942.post-16765113933839849442012-07-24T21:01:00.428-07:002012-07-24T21:01:00.428-07:00While you're talking about Seekers, what are y...While you're talking about Seekers, what are your thoughts on the new Chariots coming out this month?<br /><br /><br />I've been trying to figure out how to make Chariots work now that they're in 6th, but I'm having a hard time of it. It just seems like charging it into a unit is just asking for it to be glanced to death, whether it be the Command Barge or this new Slaaneshi thing. Do chariots just roll over since they don't get front armor like walkers?Abakusnoreply@blogger.com
