Gibious Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 First for thouse who dont know me, im a scraper. Planning to build my 1500pts (Local's main) out of only the models I already own. Through a lot of playtesting I came to the conclusion that my playstyle benifits more from two squads of paladins with psycannons rather than two squads of troop terminators. Especialy as they provide my only reliable anti-tank other than the LRC. It leaves me forced to used my two PA GK squads as my two troops choices. At the moment they come both as: Justicar with Sword 4x PAGK With Halbard GK with Incinerator Rhino And by converting my INQ with psycannon to actualy become a techmarine, my only model left for HQ is a third Justicar with a sword. This is how they will most likely end up: Brotherhood Champion GKSS x2 Justicar- NF Halbard GK- Incinerator GK- NF Halbard GK- ND Hammer GK- NF Sword GK- NF Falcion Rhino [One may be changed to razorback if I fell like it and of course, points allowing] But in my hazey memory of last night I swear I calculated that using the same models, I can field Crow and Purifiers in that loadout for Cheaper! Can someone confirm? Not requesting point values. Just a "yeah they are 56pts cheaper" -Gib- Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230472-just-a-quick-calculation/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vash Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 Yah cheaper, mainly because of the incinerator. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230472-just-a-quick-calculation/#findComment-2768985 Share on other sites More sharing options...
XaClocKWorKoX Posted May 24, 2011 Share Posted May 24, 2011 if you take crowe you can ad purifiers to your army as a troop choice. now that is great because if you deck out your troop squads the purifiers become cheaper. HERE IS THE GRAND QUESTION. why trick out your troop choices. where you could take more models as just vanilla GKSS. which would be cheaper. then back them up with more elite paladin squads. the only reason i am asking this cause me and my friend had this same convo last night. p.s. yes i have friends lol Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230472-just-a-quick-calculation/#findComment-2769106 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibious Posted May 24, 2011 Author Share Posted May 24, 2011 Clockwork, how can I get more models when im only using the models I already own? Well thats a proper shocker for me still, that I am paying less for more attacks and fearless and cleansing flame over losing Warpquake and IC on my HQ. Thanks Vash, I guess this post is resolved now. -Gib- Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/230472-just-a-quick-calculation/#findComment-2769197 Share on other sites More sharing options...
