Lord Blackwood Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I have a Killteam event to go to on saturday and I was wondering if we could kick around the viability of Thunder Wolf Cavalry in this mode. 200 points is not a lot to work with , Currently I was thinkin id take 3 TWC bolt Pistol chainsword aka the naked versions and 5 grey hunters so bring the model count up to 8 to avoid quick break tests.Is it worth it to give up on the grey hunters and just run 4 twc instead?

Frater Cornelius Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 At 200 pointa you can run 5 TWC. I tried that against a Sternguard player. The high toughness was pretty good avoiding break tests in the, but with only 5 models it is a pain to kill 8 of his. On the other hand, 3 TWC and 5 GH are 190 points, which means you do not have enough for a Plasma anymore. A Flamer is a good option if you face a horde though, so that is a thing. So yeah, 3 TWC and 5 GH with a Flamer. Not sure how effective it would be but looks like a good list for :cusss'n'giggles.

Donkalleone Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Changing the GH to BC would make a plasma possible. Didnt play Killteam so i dont know if that is a good idea Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/299706-how-strong-are-twc-at-killteam/#findComment-3871672 Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanPesci Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I generally wouldnt put any special weapons on a bloodclaw except a flamer, due to their BS3 aslo, grey hunters come with a bolter, which in kill team id think would be a much better option than the tradeoff in points/CC attacks, due to its added range and rapid fire option. Lone wolves used to be an awesome option in Kill Team - but cant remember if their new loadout options are as viable this edition. BUt yeah, for TWC id run 2-3 (can we take just 2?) and fill the rest out with grey hunters. Maybe use any leftover points to give the GH true grit?

Donkalleone Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 There are several good LoneWolf builds in the 65-75 point range (+2 Fenrisan) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/299706-how-strong-are-twc-at-killteam/#findComment-3871867 Share on other sites More sharing options...
