Gentlemanloser Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Not in this competitive tournament they're not. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305738-never-ever-ever-bring-dreadnoughts-or/page/2/#findComment-4001571 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaoticEric Posted April 8, 2015 Author Share Posted April 8, 2015 Space Marines are battle brothers with GK... Yes but one of the "resteictions" is that all allies, including running two detachments/formations from the same faction, counts as allies of convenience no matter what the normal level of alliance is.

Ishagu Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 This tournament gives a MASSIVE advantage to Eldar, Tau and Necrons. Even if fun is your only priority, it's so badly stacked Against Imperial Armies you'd be downright cheated.

Reclusiarch Darius Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Yep. I mean, it slightly nerfs Necrons, as they have to play with CAD, not with Decurion. But they're still strong as hell anyway, and Eldar/Tau/Daemons/Nids are completely unaffected by the other restrictions. Only two Riptides? Kek. Doesn't stop people taking two Missileside Teams in heavy. Only two Wraithknights? Oh noes, that's the normal number you see.

SyNidus Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Have you considered filling up on purifiers and sticking them in a Raven or 2? Surely there's more than enough to spend your points on :p Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/305738-never-ever-ever-bring-dreadnoughts-or/page/2/#findComment-4002168 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulrik_Ironfist Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 So they put restrictions on MC's, If there are going to be other SM players there, it would seem they won't suffer. I say don't go. Especially when they're handicapping you by making everything AoC, meaning you can't use the old allied drop pod trick. Don't go, it won't be fun.

ChaoticEric Posted April 9, 2015 Author Share Posted April 9, 2015 Have you considered filling up on purifiers and sticking them in a Raven or 2? Surely there's more than enough to spend your points on :p Yep, I'm thinking of it but I have to admit that I've been underwhelmed by purifiers so far. I've had some bad warp charge rolls when manifesting cleansing flame, when I got it off I always rolled below average on number of hits and then they die too easily for their points cost. I still think I will run five in either a storm raven or a razorback though.

Prot Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 That's what I would do. Bad luck aside, I'm finding Cleansing Flame to be the great equalized against hordes of junk in cover. I find in games where this isn't relevant, the psychic focus just shifts to something else.... but those 2 WCs from the Purifiers are always useful.
