corlinjewell Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 So, I'm curious about your guys' thoughts on a Predator equipped with only a TL-Lascannon. I know its only 15 more points for the combi-predator, so I'm wondering if there is ever a time where this is useful. I like the fact that you aren't sacrificing any firepower when moving 6" and still have a 30% chance of scoring a hit when moving 12" (especially because my local meta seems to enjoy a LOT of LOS-blocking terrain).

Captain Idaho Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Never take just a Predator without sponsons. For the points you just won't scare anyone, and rightfully so.

WarriorFish Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Agreed, also the Predator looks a little odd without sponsons :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/281511-tl-lascannon-predator/#findComment-3487719 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkGuard Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 If you're taking a Pred with no sponsons, much better to get a Razorback for cheaper and with transport capacity.

Thanks guys, I was thinking this was the case, but I figured I'd still ask.

Gideon999 Posted October 11, 2013 Share Posted October 11, 2013 I have used preds with just the las turret, and it wasnt bad. was it the most effective use of the slot or the points? Probably not, but it DID throw my opponant for a loop. They had never fought that config before. It was a mix of "well its just one lascannon shot per turn so I'll ignore it" and "its AV13 and twin linked and can move and shoot all day long and just opened up 2 of my transports...". Made more for an interesting psychological unit than an effective one.
