MadMonk Posted June 20, 2009 Author Share Posted June 20, 2009 Thank you yeah I see the rumor's floating around about the nex dex it some of it is true we should have bigger bite then before! Are RazorBack's worth the points? I know the old rules it was just better to mount the grey hunters in rhinos and drive foward lol Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/171497-old-wolf-lord-returning/#findComment-2026823 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Eh, well I think the 75pts is worth it for TLAC or a TLPG+LC... but only sparingly really. Landraiders and Rhinos are really best- higher squad sizes, better protection on one and cheap as hell on the other.

Megalodon Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 I've gotten some great use outta the cheap TLHB Razorbacks lately. I just can't bring myself to spend 75 points on a transport.

Quillen Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Well same rule book we have had for ever. It's still really competitive thou. Man I miss the 4th edition codex so much. They were way more balanced. That said. Fighting orks is really hard now. Use to you only had to worry about them getting to grips with you. Now they shoot amazingly well. So you take a licking from them on the move so when they do reach you your weaker then before. Add in some cheesy gimick squads and it makes them truely scarey. In the tournies around here they win 1st and 2nd place usually. If the guy knows how to play them. So we have trouble with them being so low on the models count. Chaos can be lamed. They use 2 Leash models to pull you in front of 1ksons and AP3 you to death in rapid fire. If they mess up thou, and you can reach them, you will role them. As to the new codex. I will believe it when I see it. 3 years of waiting when it should have been out. So I don't care any more. The 3rd edition codex does fine as it is. You just have to play smart against the giveme free wins lists.
