Kaptejn Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 So. Do you have a unit that is limited to our codex that you ALWAYS field? No matter the point limit i for one would never go to war without at least one spriest. At low point games the FnP is priceless :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294288-the-one-ba-unit-you-always-field/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disciple of Caliban Sgt Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Death Company Assault Jump Packs.............minimum 5 Reclusiarch or leme always. Usually a 10 man squad punch them right up the middle (still use cover of course) and send them after something nasty. Expensive? God yes. But man when they hit............ have been known to roll up an entire flank on their own. Also have been known to get shot to pieces and then the rest of the army closes and does what they were designed too, close combat goodness.

Taranis Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 DC on foot. Sprinkle with a bit of powerfist. Just shove them in the general direction of the enemy and watch him pray.

Gumo9 Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Agreed. Death Company all the way. Either with or without jump packs. G Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294288-the-one-ba-unit-you-always-field/#findComment-3757411 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red-beard Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 I am an oddball I know.....but I often field Sanguinary guard. I like having a highly mobile unit with strong CC abilities and a 2+ save. Throw in a jump pack priest and they are quite durable. Also, deep striking them with melta pistols is fun, especially if you bring Dante with them so they don't scatter. Having them be objective secured with Dante in the army is also a nice plus. Typically I throw in a banner for the extra attacks. Plus they look pretty awesome on the board!

Silverson Posted July 27, 2014 Share Posted July 27, 2014 Hmm good question, First I was thinking sang priest, then I remembered sometimes I play death company, so I thought dreadnought but realise I sometimes leave him at home because he is not mobile enough. and it's just hit me that mines is a Baal predator. Verity changes but the tank doesn't it's front armour 13, fast, is a good line of sight blocker, can hold objectives, can clear most units off objectives with minimal assistance and can have a go at av 10 Farley well. Only just figured that out....... Derp Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294288-the-one-ba-unit-you-always-field/#findComment-3757480 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jolemai Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 2 x Multi Melta Attack Bikes The above models - either fielded together or separate - have appeared on every list I have played since joining B&C. Following that, my Predator and Razorbacks get a lot of games, but the first isn't involved in my 1250 DC list and the latter eventually replaced the Rhinos I used in the 5th edition.

Shaezus Posted July 28, 2014 Share Posted July 28, 2014 Corbulo. No matter what style I am running. Left him out of one game in the last year, and I missed him so bad I had to beg forgiveness. Also if there's a drop pod in my army, there will be a fragioso.

Sanguine_Blood Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Lately its been: Fragioso x2 Death Company Stormraven Vindicator In.....every.....single....game. In my meta the Vindi scares the ever living snot out of my opponents and its always the first to die. Really messes them up too when they also have 2 fragioso dreads on their front door.

Zeller Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Rhino with Lucifer engine. Lame, yes, but I always take my missile launcher/flamer tactical squad and they're typically accompanied by their rhino.

mandaloriano Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 I play every time with a DC squad of nine with one or two power fist in a Rhino with a Chaplain, and also a sternguard with two meltas and two combi-meltas with a sang priest in a drop pod.

Adorondak Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 9 death company, with a chaplain/reclusiarch riding around in a land raider. I almost never buy anything for the death company, just let em run with the bolt pistols and chainswords. On the charge that's 45 strength 5, WS5 attacks, re-rolling to hit and to wound plus the attacks from the chaplain/reclusiarch. The only thing I've ever seen stand up to it and still be effective fighting back are ten man TDA units. And even then, the other player has got to be rolling pretty hot on his armour saves.
