MalteseFalcon Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Hi guys Recently had a 1500 point bash with my mates new GK army and got my head served on a plate by his Vindicare Assassin, as he had a tech marine that "blostered" its cover by 1+ and it also has shelath so it has a nice little 2+ cover save and sits half way across the map hitting my tanks on +2/+4 and then rolling 4D6. Any tips would be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Caerolion Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Deep-strike some Raptors or Terminators, and introduce them to your good friend, the (heavy) Flamer. Say goodbye to the cover save! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shas'o R'Vre Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 I recently blew one to tiny pieces with a vindicator template, but Defiler Battlecannons work just as well. Failing that, you don't get cover saves in assault :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corby Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 A swift application of Lash and Termicide or Lascannons , provided you can get the demon prince in range , you can lash him out of cover. Which should only take a single movement phase if your demon prince has wings and is posistioned correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Son of Rawl Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Throw Khârn and a bunch of Zerkers at him, seems to be the tactic to everything really Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MalteseFalcon Posted April 18, 2011 Author Share Posted April 18, 2011 I always over look the powers of a lash prince, I will keep that in mind next time I vs him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minigun762 Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Its times like these that I'm happy I keep a 2x Flamer squad around. Sometimes you just need a little more "fire"power. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Garrod Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 vindicaires tend not to be great when assaulted , but i know your pain , at least the range of their exitus rifle isnt as long as it used to be if you can get in range another possibilty would be to drag him out of the building with lash of submission ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Possessed Marine Posted April 23, 2011 Share Posted April 23, 2011 here's a crazy idea... chaos chosen with 4x flamers infiltrated close enough to be able to use them. again it's a crazy idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadin Posted April 25, 2011 Share Posted April 25, 2011 Flamers are always great for stealth units. But even if you like to pass over 'Lash' its the #1 way for taking untis out of cover. proceed with really any long range fire:: Autocannon/Heavy Bolter are AP4, Lazcannon/Missile witll sita-kill, plasma will make short work, even bolter fire (4+ armor 2 wounds doesnt last forever) Or lash into assault works too.

Demoulius Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 tbh id think a for more amusing use of lash would be to put him behind a wall :) (not sure if his sniper rifle is a heavy weapon?) hed to move a turn or 2 at least to get back to his safe spot ;) then again if you play kill points or simply want him gone pulling him out of the building is indeed the better option....but wheres the fun in that? :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spacefrisian Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Why not turn him into a spawn, that would be hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dosjetka Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 Why not turn him into a spawn, that would be hilarious. I must agree with that ;) Ludovic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the jeske Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 if it worked. you take a psyker within a vindicar and stop him from moving outside of the 6" range[you cast gift before movment] . so he not only has 2-3 turns of shoting at your caster , but also the GK are full of anti psyker stuff. Good luck trying to spawn him . only way is to kill him in hth . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shas'o R'Vre Posted May 5, 2011 Share Posted May 5, 2011 only way is to kill him in hth . And for Chaos, that isn't that hard if you prioritise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
