bushman101 Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I've been writting up some lists to try out, but I'm having a real problem figuring out what to do against Flyers. I don't currently have the book that outlines Fortifications (did they change much from the 6th ed BRB?), so I want to discuss our codex options. Our Devs get Flak missles which is cool, but how reliable have they worked out for others? StormRaven seems to have changed a bit (mostly from the loss of BloodStrike Missles), is this our main AA option? Anything else I missed? (Codex options, not counting things from other suppliments) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Marshal Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 speaking strickly codex options. I would add assault cannon baal preds or razorbacks with TL assault cannon. it doesn't usually take down a fly but I can and it can also make someone choose to jink, which sometimes is half the battle.

Black Marshal Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 well unfortunately unless you go outside codex your options are that, the stormraven, or flakk devs. I have been using them with my space wolves but at 175 for missile devs with flak its not a cheap option or good option. I find it really lack luster but have been saving my money for the BA release and didn't want to buy the stormwolf. what I do is ignore the flyers and jink with the stormraven to give them a target has worked for me so far. I think mort said it and I liked his point. Speed is the best defense. play fast play hard and don't give them a real target Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May as well pick up the Fort Suppliment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatOneMarshal Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 One of the things that's been holding me off going all blood angels is the lack of good anti air. Has anyone used the storm wing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatOneMarshal Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Hey guys has anyone thought about running the tyrannic war veterans list basically tyrannic veterans (sternguard with only hellfire) Cassius and up to six storm talons. And if the storm talons hit a target then the veterans get ignore cover on that unit. Seems cheap and fluffy considering that we can use the new successor chapter as the formation.

I so want to try this. And having the Stormtalons start on the field can make it even rougher for the opponent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
