BloodTzar Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 While I was looking at the other forums, one guy suggested there to create one multi-char DS unit out of elite's + HQ. It was nice idea, however not very useful in game-terms due to unit price and FOC. However I did little brainstorming and I would like to know what you think about this little DS unit. Libby- JP (sword, rage) - 125 HG-JP's all around - SS/BP, Big Banner, champ (because of WS5 - or get another SS instead), PW - 260 Chappy - JP PF - 140 Sums at 525, bit pricey, however deadly. They all move 12, they can DOA, but the fun starts on charge. On charge, Libby casts sword (which as debated can last for the whole duration of the game RAW) while getting rerolls thanks to Chappy (even on vehicles = bbye vendettas) and due to banner he ends up with 5 I5/S10 attacks :P . Scary. While still be able to benefit from rerolls for other turns thanks to rage. If you add another Libby (might, shield) now we talk real trouble, D3 + 5 S10/I5 attacks, while being able to get 5++ cover with some 3++ shields (with another Libby I would suggest to cut champ in favour of SS) What you think guys?

Res Ipsa Loquitur Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 I think you'll get shot to hell after you destroy whatever unit you charge and then *poof* bye-bye Deathstar. My other army is Tyranids and as Zoanthropes will tell you, a 3++ is very nice until you have make ten or twelve of them at a time. Then you die.

Mezkh Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 if I wanted to spend 525 points on one DoA Deathstar, why wouldn't I just take Lemartes accompanied by 8 Death Company with Jump Packs, a couple of power weapons and couple of Thunderhammers? Tell you what though, I have run Astorath with CC Honour Guard out of a Raven. I'd take the rerolling of invulnerable saves over Str 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloodTzar Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 All comments above, are very true, i just got delighted by the idea of rerolls with S10 :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rybnick Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 If you are already buying two libby's and a chappy then why not just give both libbies the Sanguine Sword power for 10 S10, I5 attacks with rerolls to hit on the charge. Giving one might and the other sword seems like a wast to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
