Massawyrm Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 Coteaz lets you take any combination of henchmen as troop choices. Henchmen may take a transport of their choice. 6 Psykers in a Rhino. Cost: 100pts. Effect: a rhino with a 36" range, Str 8, AP 1, large blast psychic power/weapon, and counts as a scoring unit. Thoughts?

BrotherWasted Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I would be more than happy to pack two of these alongside a few squads of GKs. The only issue is making room for 300pts to accomodate them (Coteaz + the squads). On the other hand, spend an extra 10 points and make those two transports into Razorbacks instead. The whole squad still fits and you have a heavy bolter to go along with the template attack.

The idea is that this can move and shoot without exposing the Psykers to the elements until someone pops the rhino.

Brom MKIV Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 It seems like a good unit and one ive been toying with as well. I prefer the chimera for the extra 6 x s5/s6 shots it brings and av12 front. I would also add a 4 pt acolyte to keep the unit scoring if/when the psykers suffer a perils and get wiped out. This is what I would be tempted to roll with: 8 psykers, 1 acolyte, chimera with ml/hb- 139 pts. Its a scoring vindicator with more dakka and better range, oh and it cant be stunned either since the psykers can simply disembark and still shoot their assault 1 S10 ap1 hehe.

Ashe Darke Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I guess that's where the Rhino has the edge, Fortitude, although you do have to put up with front armour 11. But 6 of them should make things easier. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/225275-six-wisemen-in-a-truck/#findComment-2695854 Share on other sites More sharing options...
