captain sox Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 So I've decided to make a second army. I want to make an all scout army, but I have a few questions. I know that scouts count towards Troop choice. I also know that you can get Bikes and Storms for Fast Attack slots. What about Heavy Support? Theoretically, Dev Squads are simply Tac Squads which can be equipped to 4 heavy weapons.

pingo Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Well, there is no scout-based heavy support: a bit like there's no purely 'scout' HQ (though you can have the Captain of the 10th Company, or the 10th Company Chaplain, etc.). You could take Predators and other tanks. You could justify it as the vehicles being on detachment to support or train with the scouts, or even that the drivers and crew are scouts being trained in the use of the vehicles.

chapter master 454 Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Devs are fitting actually, they are just scouts who recently got their power armour so it is possible to see a dev squad in a scout army, possibly shrike HQ lead (I know it's a little cheesey too but it fits fluff wise too) with a Heavy support of devs only. Thats the only way I can see a 'scouts' army Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/185962-heavy-support-fast-attack-for-scout-army/#findComment-2200399 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miscellaneous Marine Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 I'd take artillery, Thunderfire Cannons and whirlwinds. Have the scouts employed as artillery spotters.
