angryswarmofbees Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Hey I'm not a BA player but my regular marine army is mech. I was wondering what premium do BA players pay for fast vehicles and deep striking land raiders? Also I'm thinking I might just be better playing a BA list? Would that be the best for a mech list? Not so bothered about jump packs and their other specialities though PS Honour Guard are probably the coolest miniatures ever released by GW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zealot Of Chaos Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Rhinos and Razorbacks are more expensive, our land raiders carry less men and don't have searchlights as standard although land raiders can be taken as dedicated transports, redeemers and crusaders are identical except for the searchlight (and that BA ones deep strike) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeller Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Rhino chassis cost 15 points over C:SM. LR are the same cost though we somewhere lost searchlights on every vehicle. I guess the airspeed was to great for our tanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redo Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Zeller has given you the right answers; Deep Striking Riders; personally wish they never did it and I am glad that did not include a points increase. I think DS on raiders sucks. Rhinos and Razors...fairly fair. Think 10 points might have been better consider the fragility of Rhino chassis and especially because Predators only pay 10 points for the increase. They are now where it is. Pretty much good by Baals...too expensive. Speaking of too expensive Vindicators...they pay 30 points more than their SM variants. Sure fast is cool but at that price on a Rhino chassis...not so sure. Still deadly though and a popular choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Nathan Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 think it is right for a vindi as the ability to move 12 inches and still fire with the demo cannon is lethal, its esientially 36 inch ranged and harder to kill in cc... though baals pay too much for it... and would never deepstrike a landraider, i knw its supposed to fit in with a doa force but to rissky with somany points... and i dont know about others but raiders cost much that i dont imagine many, if anyone, taking more than 3 raiders in a normal game. apoc sure... but whos worried about a raider or 10 in apoc? Fast helps but luckily you cant straight out assault from them in the turn they boost 18 inches... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
