OoZo Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Hey, I am wondering if there is anyone out there who has tried a bike heavy list? I would believe it would look very cool onthe table with a load of assault marines and bikes with attack bikes. Since the bikes are tough as they are, and with priests closeby, they should be able to make the game very, very flexible and fast moving. Have anyone has any experience with this kind of list: Assault Squads Bikers Attack Bikes Maybe a flying dread Cheers And land speeders with flamers!

BLACK BLΠFLY Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Check Kirby's 3++ blog. Also Morticon uses bikes too. G :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/223048-ba-and-bikers/#findComment-2666754 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesI Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Google Blood Rodeo (I don't remember which 40k blog discussed the bike/assault list). Also Morticon has some experience with bikes in BA lists. Personally, I don't own any bikes except attack bikes, so I've never run bike heavy.

BLACK BLΠFLY Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Vanilla Marines are a much better choice for a biker army. I never really got the Blood Rodeo concept.

Tabgoi Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Points wise, I love attack bikes. Actual money wise, I just cannot bring myself to buy them. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/223048-ba-and-bikers/#findComment-2668669 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Biskit Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Not really thought of biker lists per say but I was really interested in using 3 squads of scout bikers for a massive alpha strike. Only truly effective if you get the first turn though. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/223048-ba-and-bikers/#findComment-2668915 Share on other sites More sharing options...
d@n Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Vanilla Marines are a much better choice for a biker army. I never really got the Blood Rodeo concept. G Exactly, why swim up stream? Each codex has its strengths and bikers are not one of them with BA.

Julius Firefocht Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Bikes are nice for a potentially fatal laugh, if you are willing to try it out. I am planning to make a full 10-man Bike Squad, and a Sanguinary Priest on a bike. T5 with FNP and Furious charge with that fast movement just makes sense to me.

BLACK BLΠFLY Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 There are much better choices in the codex. Termies with FNP make much more sense to me... but hey whatever floats your boat - have fun with it.

OoZo Posted February 23, 2011 Author Share Posted February 23, 2011 After reading the 3++ forums it actually sounds pretty decent! The idea of bringing 2x10 bikes+attack bikes who turbo boosts to get 3+ cover save and wants to be be charged is cool, we all know how pesky plague marines are, but bikes are fast and have 3+ cover save! The second wave of 2-3 assault squads with priests(who jumps behind) who are the force enhancer and a squad of 5 termies with th/ss as third wave deep striking to clean hard stuff up, makes sense in my eyes! Its so many models! So much feel no pain! So much attacks and so much meltas/plasma...

fivepointedstar Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I'm kind of wondering why you dont see more member's of the Baal's Out Motorcycle Club out there... must be the membership fee?

BLACK BLΠFLY Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Vanilla you can have bikes as a troop choice and they have biker command squads. Khan has furious charge and hit and run. The bikes as a troop choice is really good. G Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/223048-ba-and-bikers/#findComment-2669610 Share on other sites More sharing options...
