tksolway Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 I like the Shadowsword because it has a Destructor weapon (who wouldn't) but at the same time, I drool over the ability to fit my entire army in a Stormlord and motor around the board shooting from its access points. I know I'm a GK Army so I should probably take the Heavy Weapon of the Shadowsword and run, but then I think I can put four lascannons on the Stormlord :-). What do you guys think, which would you build? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/200205-just-got-a-shadowswordstormlord-box/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellios Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 What will you be fighting against? Do you have many super-heavies you need to destroy?

tksolway Posted May 1, 2010 Author Share Posted May 1, 2010 I don't know what I will be fighting against. None of my normal opponents play with Super-Heavies yet.

Justicar Valius Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 take neither. Take a banesword. its like a lascannon stats but is 10" blast and barrage so it ignores cover saves and has indirect fire. You see where I'm going with this? MEQ go bye bye.

tksolway Posted May 2, 2010 Author Share Posted May 2, 2010 So are Pie plates better than the vulcan at handling MEQ infantry? My group won't mind me bringing the Super-Heavy, we just play for fun anyway.

Hfran Morkai Posted May 2, 2010 Share Posted May 2, 2010 I'd suggest magnetizing the kit if at all possible: http://forums.tauonline.org/index.php?topic=80830.0 That way you don't need to make a definite choice. Though if you want to glue it I would say a Shadowsword for when your friends start bringing super-heavies or lots of armour to the table. It might "only" be a 5 inch blast but it auto-penetrates and auto wounds things whilst causing instant death. And if you really want you can make it BS4 Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/200205-just-got-a-shadowswordstormlord-box/#findComment-2385169 Share on other sites More sharing options...
