Brother Bahram Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 In my DWCS I've apothecary, veteran, LC, Th&ss, Sb&pf&cml. Where shall I put the banner? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285080-who-shall-cary-the-banner/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Apothecary can not carry it. Wouldn't give it to the TH/SS because he will eat wounds. Don't give it to CML because precision shots will put too much pressure on him, spead your goodies out. Besides, which banner is it?

Pbenner Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 One of my command squads is the same build and the TH//SS guy has it. I usually run that command squad coming out of a LAC though. And it's the Company Banner there. Paul Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285080-who-shall-cary-the-banner/#findComment-3557448 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aegnor Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Brother Bethor dammit. I put the banner on the guy with a TH/SS, but that wasn't super well thought through. I'd probably stick it on a 'normal' guy in future.

Brother Bahram Posted December 31, 2013 Author Share Posted December 31, 2013 Thank you guys! It will be on the Th&ss-guy. Which banner? For now, the company banner!

Frater Cornelius Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Thank you guys! It will be on the Th&ss-guy. Which banner? For now, the company banner! Why? I mean, isn't he gonna be up front eating ap2 wounds? He will be your first casualty in most cases.

Frater Cornelius Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 Best place it on a normal dude in the middle of the squad seeing as SS guy needs to tank wounds and become first casualty, apo cant carry it and giving it to the cyclone dude will put too many eggs in one basket since precision shots will probably try to kill him anyway. So play save. In short, yes you can give it to the LC fella seeing as he is the most irrelevant in the squad and will not attract any more hits than the rest. Possibly also the veteran (is he a character? if yes, then he won't ge it. if no, then he is also an option).

I mean, isn't he gonna be up front eating ap2 wounds? He will be your first casualty in most cases. Better to place on the LC-termie? In this setup? Yes. If you had two TH/SS models and no LCs, then the choice would be obvious, but in your setup, the TH/SS guy needs to be a melta-sponge...

I mean, isn't he gonna be up front eating ap2 wounds? He will be your first casualty in most cases. The problem is, in v6 you don't select who is gonna take the 2+ and the 3+. You depends from you opponent's choice in resolving the AP3+ and the AP2- in a given order and your placement. If you place the banner in the front, be sure your opponent will want you to resolve the AP2 first. If you place him in the back, your opponent will ask you to resolve the AP3+ first in order to keep the few AP2 shoots for your last termis. Giving the banner a SS is a life insurance. Even if your opponent keeps AP 2 for him, you'll still have. A 3++ rather than a 5++ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285080-who-shall-cary-the-banner/#findComment-3557629 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pbenner Posted December 31, 2013 Share Posted December 31, 2013 With the Apothecary and Champion, you do have access to a crappy LoS. If attaching an IC I think LC guy is a better choice. No IC, i want insurance. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/285080-who-shall-cary-the-banner/#findComment-3557710 Share on other sites More sharing options...
