Centurio Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I just feel wrong putting it on a skyshield. Without bubble wrapping I would likely lose mine to drop pod melta vets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadian_F_H Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I just don't understand how you get a bane blade onto one of those platforms? It didn't drive up there... I haven't seen s lifter that can set it down on there... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Centurio Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Certainly there are huge dropships that could do it... It just looks silly to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tho I can only think of the forge world lifters with the rhinos and landraiders underneath... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
march10k Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Simple...you drive it up a ramp! Anyway...call it a shielded firing platform "counts as a skyshield for rules purposes." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does the model have a ramp? I don't think I've seen it in person... They have so much terrain at my local so they may have had a few buried in there...

WarriorFish Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 I usually make a ramp out of the corpses of my enemies. Doesn't everyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hendrik Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 note that you need to roll 2D6 before the game starts when you use the ramp trick. on a double 6 the tank drives misses the ramp and accidently drives off it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pOD1CgyEnM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

march10k Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Except for orks... Er...150 points for 50 conscripts... Fine... ...not that I have the models to do more than 100 conscripts...but the theoretical maximum in a single FOC has IG outnumbering a green tide by leaps and bounds...even in a 1850 list, let alone a maxed CAD. I think you could do 4 blobs of 50 standard guardsmen AND 4 blobs of 50 conscripts at 1850. Before upgrades, 4 PCSs, and a CCS, that's 1600 points for 400 models...take that, poncey orks!

Ulrik_Ironfist Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 And that's why I don't play horde guard... I'll stick to my stormies and vets, and later tanks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
