I’m not sure I entirely agree on the Lascannon versus Autocannon Sabre. In terms of the flyers you’ll see, your big ones are gonna be Night Scythes, Flyrants, Harpies/Crones, and Daemon Princes. Scythes, Harpies, and Princes all have to consider the Autocannons very real threats. Depending on what your list is most worried about, I think they’re legit choices (and they are better against Wave Serpents as well.) Not that Lascannons are bad or not worth considering, but I don’t think they’re an automatic choice.
Thanks for the advice, though the Field Artillery Carriage is the one that comes with Thuddguns, I probably should have written that in, haha.
The Heavy Field Artillery Carriage is the Basilisk/Medusa one.
great list, very similar to one i have done at the end of 6th edition.
Its really powerful now I think.
I would drop the master of ord and fleet and lascannon and get a chimera to protect the CCS. They are surely going to be everyones first target.
the reason you take knights as a primary is to get seneschal:).
Also if you get a lancer as your warlord you get a huge benefit from the higher bs and ws and [checked with FW] the bonus to invuluns also affects the ion shield in combat
To bad the lancer looks like his legs are made of a paper receipt plastic roll lol( sorry but I think the lancer looks to tall and goofy)
Reece I am hoping when the codex comes out you will do an in depth review of it and impressions, I would probably watch/listen to that multiple times 😀
I dunno what it is but anytime there is an interview I can hear the person being interviewed but there is nothing but blank sound for the interviewer
It tends to be in stereo for me. (Ie. when wearing headphones interviewer in left ear, interviewee in right ear)
Might be a speaker issue or setting.
Ah yes I only have one speaker. I wish they would change that so I could actually listen to the interviews.
You can actually override your audio output settings so that it only plays in mono, that’ll fix it too. 🙂
That whole “faction” thing really didn’t last long. The lists these kinjd of lists create to many FAQ’s.
Quick question: Can Necrons (for example) ally with Necrons ?
Yes they can.
Just placed my first order with frontline. As a brit it’s a new experience for me! All going well I may order some gaming mats 🙂
We’re happy to hook you up!
