Brother Heinrich Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 So after getting my butt handed to me by an Iron Warrior Gunline this evening, I'm looking to spruce up my IX Legion forces. Debating between a Sicaran and a Fire Raptor. What do you guys prefer and why? (for context the rest of my forces for the 1500-1750 level consist of dual vindicators, two rhino tac squads, a jetbike praetor, two jetbike squads, and a jump pack plasma Moritat.)

ThatOneMarshal Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Just from reading your list I would say sicarian, mostly because of the armor saturation. However if you want some anti air then the fire raptor can provide you with what you need. Both are good for light vehicles however. I think when deciding which one you should ask yourself these questions: Dio you face agaainst lots of anti air? Do you face agianst lots of bikes or vehicles that need to jink? Do you face against heavy or light vehicles often? You face against hordes or units of heavy armor(2+ save)? And most importantly, which one looks better in red?

Hyaenidae Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Sicari-Raptor. It'd be kinda like this.... Seriously, though, The Fire Raptor is a gunship, man. A f'real Legion Gunship. I honestly can't imagine why you wouldn't go for that first, lol.

Brother Heinrich Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 Well for now my opponents will likely be Eldar, Necrons, and these Iron Warriors: http://i1162.photobucket.com/albums/q532/mv8830/10887717_10153847560273761_1254380740_n_zpsskmuk5qm.jpg I agree that the Sicaran fits the armored theme well, but I didn't know if an Autocannon Fire Raptor would work just as well for the opponents I'll face.
