Venerable vs. ordinairy dread

[thade]

And Morollan, I'm not sure an ~8% increase in hits is worth 60 points. Insofar as 4d6 are concerned, it's pretty tiny. <3 But it's nice icing on the "Re-roll that Wrecked result, please."

 

I just think that, if you have a unit that is designed solely to shoot stuff, an ~8% increase in accuracy on each shot is pretty decent, especially when it also comes with a massive boost to durability. Sure, 60 points is a lot, but if you have some spare points then I'd say it's worthwhile.

I mean, that's fair enough. But 60 points in a GK list is 2-3 more infantry models...and that's where I'd put those points if I could. More bodies almost always trumps "Nice but not strictly necessary" in my mind. Still, if the Dread looks like it's Venerable, I'd always spend the points on it. :)
