MustangTC Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Not everyone realises this but fortifications can be placed anywhere on your half of the board and not just in your deployment zone. With us being a midfield army I'm trying to think of tactical ways to use this to our advantage. The big one that jumps out to me is a midfield bastion with the chooser of the slain on it to prevent infiltrators and a pack of our scouts with a heavy bolter and a couple of sniper rifles deploying inside of it. Can you think of any other good combos? Infiltrate is limited in our army so there may be good options via allies too.

hendrik Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 why would you want to deploy those midfield? they'll be closer to the enemy in this way, not to mention more units will be able to shoot them faster. in general you're making less use of their long range. i like the idea though, but some will be highly situational. in "the relic" games you might want a skyshield to be near the relic, with a bolter armed 10 man scout unit sitting in it(3+inv save), while the rest of your army drops in to create a killing ground?
