L30n1d4s Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 I am already thinking of a pretty potent GK backfield support crew: 2-3 Psyflemen on a Skyshield Landing Pad using their 48" range to tackle enemy light transports, suppress vehicles that can Jink with a high volume of S8 shots, and threaten T4 and below units with ID if a wound gets through armor/cover saves. On the flip side, when the enemy shoots at the Psyfleman, they activate Sanctuary to give them +1 to their 4++ from the Skyshield Landing pad for a 3++ Invul save overall... Combined with it being more difficult to destroy vehicles outright (i.e. You need a 7+ on the damage chart), this means Psyflemen can be quite durable, requiring on average (3/4 to hit)(1/3 to glance)(1/3 fail Invul)(1/3 for three HPs) = 36 Missileside shots to glance one to death with the 3++ save.

jeffersonian000 Posted May 29, 2014 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Yep. Add in some Purifiers with max Psycannons and a GM for psychic buffing, and you have a very static yet very tough fire base.

BloodTzar Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 The once the DAngle 4++ carrier is inside the LR 4++ is applied only to the vehicle... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291616-skyshield-sanctaury-psyflemen/#findComment-3701566 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reclusiarch Darius Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Oh lol. Mind you, massed S7 still chips away your HP and kills you in the end, but they'll need a lot to break that 3++. Just hope you don't Peril though. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/291616-skyshield-sanctaury-psyflemen/#findComment-3701825 Share on other sites More sharing options...
