Magnus Thane Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 I have 3 Lascannon Havoks, i bought when i bought my first few CSM's years ago. (yeah i'm a slowpoke in getting things expanded and ready). I was wondering in what unitsize i'd best use them. And if it's okay just to dump them on an elevation and leave them there. Or am i best to get them by transport into position? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/158118-havoc-lascannons/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhukov Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 well to be hounest, havocs arent the best lasscanon platform. But if you plan to take i would problably take a 6/7 man squad with an IoCG. No need for transport. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/158118-havoc-lascannons/#findComment-1850522 Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you plan to take i would problably take a 6/7 man squad with an IoCG. No need for transport. Agreed. 7 Havocks, 3 LasCannons and Icon of Chaos Glory will run you 220 points. Thats the same roughly as 3 Obliterators in static firepower but you lose the Plasma Cannons and mobility which can suck. They are basically a poor man's Obliterator, not useful but not the best either. In smaller games I'd probably make it a 5 man/2 LasCannon squad, just to shave off some points.

Magnus Thane Posted January 21, 2009 Author Share Posted January 21, 2009 Found a fourth. And yes i realize that :P but when i got them i didn't even know the WH40K rules yet. And in time i'd like to use them for the truly large games to fill up points.

Zeller Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Oh, perhaps your chosen can smuggle a few into a nice safe peice of cover. If you wanted you could try the poor man's razorback, Chaos style of course. Havoc squad with 2 LC in a rhino. Stop, shoot, relocate.

Ace of Gods Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Havoc squads with Las are good, but try making it 2 Las 2 Missile for cheaper cost. Chances are you wont need all 4 shots at one target in a turn, and if you do, missile isnt too far behind Las for strength. That, and if you fire at squads of mobs that are the only available target, the Frag in the missiles can help reduce more models with the Blast template instead.
