Spacefrisian Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 If you need tanks try the following. 2x Vindicator, 1 Whirlwind. Being able to put 3 pies on the table is fun.

Vassakov Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 I have a Vindicator, Dakka and Las Preds, 4 Razorbacks, A LRC and LR Prometheous. So far, the Dakka Pred has been the least worth it. The Razorbacks fulfil a nice IFV anti troop role, as well as messing up my opponents AT fire (trust me, plonk 3 Razors, a Vindi, Pred and LRC down and watch them cry :P ) At the moment my favorite is the Vindicator. Scares the hell out of the enemy, is reasonably tough and is only 125pts w/ a Siege shield (a powerfist more for XA) and can kill anything. The Crusader is lethal as well. If I knew I was up against a Tank heavy army I'd probably take the Triple Las Pred, but 3x Meltaguns, a multi melta and a ton of Powerfists usually sort problems.

muzzyman1981 Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Well when I get enough money again I am getting the Whirlwind then the Vindicator....we shall see after that. Now that I have a decent playable army I can take my time, especially after I finally trade for my second GH pack.

Guest WG Vrox Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Pred Ann -105 no spons just TLLC. Vind -115 Whirly -85 Nice balance little of everything you will need all for 300 points. 1 main weapon allows you to move and shoot, keeping the enemy in sight and you in cover. Any 1 loss is not the end of the game for ya. If you are looking for Anti Tank , try out Attack Bikes with MM. For 50 points it's well worth it. I run my att bikes with 1 MM and 2 HB s all using a diff FA slot. Use the two HB bikes to provide cover. For 130 points, it provides a thorn in the enemies side.

Beef Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I always use preds, they are pretty much the best points wise, I used to run the twin linked ones with heavy bolters, but now that HB are no longer defensive weapons You would need to decide what you need it for, if tank hunting then twin linked las all the way Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/149783-looking-for-advice-on-heavy-support-addition/page/2/#findComment-1742392 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolf89 Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 Wait... I thought only WGPL with BC JP pack would take a JP? They can, and only them, not any of the HQ's... who said otherwise?

WolfLordLars Posted October 22, 2008 Share Posted October 22, 2008 I thought jump packs were cool when I first saw 40k... ... of course, I also thought Blood Angels were cool back then too.

Guest WG Vrox Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 one of my favorite non-SW ICs in 4th was the Commander using a JP with PF PW combo joining in with an assult squad sgt. and chap with same setup. man they could tear things up. Yes it was me who forced GW to take away the 2CC +1 for PF CF TH.

Wolf89 Posted October 23, 2008 Share Posted October 23, 2008 One of my favorite special characters has always been dante, I respect him probably the most, or just about as much as Logan (a wolf at heart), and he's always been a great commander and GW did justice with the model... just wish they brought back some of those "ancient" technological weaponry like dante has... mmm Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/149783-looking-for-advice-on-heavy-support-addition/page/2/#findComment-1743863 Share on other sites More sharing options...
