northoceanbeach Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 In the SW codex they say see the marine dex for these choices, but they list the points cost. How does this work. Do you use the rules from the marine dex but the cost from SW? I'm confused. Thanks.

muzzyman1981 Posted October 12, 2008 Share Posted October 12, 2008 No you use all the vehicle costs from the Space Marine Codex EXCEPT for the Venerable Dreadnought and Leman Russ Exterminator. Everything else is taken from the SM Codex. That, so far, has been the most widely accepted idea. HOWEVER, for Rhinos and Razorbacks WE say take the costs from the SM Codex as the FAQ says to take all the other vehicles from there but it doesn't specifically say so. You should make sure whoever is running the games agrees with that, or says to use the points/upgrades from the SW Codex. If its a friendly game ask your opponent and establish the rules.

This question is answered weekly, let this be a warning to those who have similar questions about ANYTHING related to ANY SW question that they first look at the sticky threads at the top of the page (FAQ is also a great place to check before posting anything). It's become a weekly thing to see these questions pop up, and the answers don't change from week to week I can promise you. If they ever do, we'll be sure to post it in a thread that I'm sure no one will read. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/148874-for-vehicles/#findComment-1728509 Share on other sites More sharing options...

northoceanbeach Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 seems the leman russ is a bit overpriced, but it's unique, so whatever. I wish the tornados were 65 too. Especially now that you can't move and shoot much. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/148874-for-vehicles/#findComment-1729101 Share on other sites More sharing options...
muzzyman1981 Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Yes the LRE is expensive compaired to it's closest cousin the Pred Destructor which has a little bit worse armor and a normal Auto-Cannon rather than a twin-linked BUT the LRE gets to take the cheaper upgrade options from the SW Codex.... As for the second part of your comment, I'm not sure what exactly the LS Tornado pattern is supposed to be equipped with but a couple of the upgrades get it under your mark, one is just above your mark, and the last option is pretty expensive comparitively speaking.

Especially now that you can't move and shoot much. You ever see a BS 4 Leman Russ tank?... (not talking the special upgrade thing for armor company either) It can get to be 200+ points, and for good reason... when S5 was defensive.

Grey Mage Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Nowadays its an expensive predator destructor with armor 14. Sad. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/148874-for-vehicles/#findComment-1729669 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarl Kjaran Coldheart Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 I must be stupid, but i love my LRE. I equip it with a hull mounted lascannon, heavy bolter side sponsons. when i have to move, i take a pot shot with the lascannon at whatever armor is pissing me off the most at the moment...or sometimes a lone inquisitor. when i sit still, i open fire with every gun at whatever is annoying my GHs the most at the moment. like sqauds trying to flank their objective, lone inquisitors, whatever. and the armor 14...while on paper only 1 above the predators, in game the 14 means it will take the dedicated anti-tank fire, and shrug off most of it. this allows my Rhinos to advance with safety. wolf lord kieran Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/148874-for-vehicles/#findComment-1729876 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Guard '79 Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 The LRE is also a good use against Orkses and Bugs!!! Definitly worth the points. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/148874-for-vehicles/#findComment-1729894 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLastHuzzah Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Can one of you graphic folks make a little picture Like Lord Ragnarok's Inquisition Thread lock? We could all get back to our ale and be happier. It could say something along the lines of: "Every time you ask a SW question prior to reading the stickied post, WolfLordLars kicks his dog in the face." or "Every time SW have to answer a question that has been covered, a DA gets his dress." -Huzzah Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/148874-for-vehicles/#findComment-1729916 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lion in the Stars Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Hey, not all Dark Angels wear dresses! Not a single one of my DAs wears a dress (or even a robe)! ===== I like that idjit-stamp you made, OID.

Not a single one of my DAs wears a dress (or even a robe)! ===== I like that idjit-stamp you made, OID. What do you call a Dark Angel without a dress?... Nilla marines! ;) The image is my doing by the way, and it'll be edited soon. With a better picture, and hopefully if my software allows (more like do I remember how) there will be a link to the FAQ when you press on the image. Also the words seem a little jumbled in the middle "has been lawfully and rightfully deemed to be worthy of..." just seems a little bit confusing... maybe OID or Omar will have to correct my improper sentence structure. I just hope the real =][= doesn't take offense and shut down the whole thing... I'd think they'd enjoy it though and maybe get a kick out of it.
