Nano Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 With smoke launchers you can go for nightfighting and have a 4+/5+ cover save on your dreadnoughts for a turn. OR have move through cover and reroll charge against vehicles. Smoke launchers sound better, but magna grapple affects the whole game, rather than just one turn.

Golden Aegis Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Move through cover has been a huge good change for me, smoke launchers are almost never better then getting even a pot shot off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karhedron Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Magna grapples are also really useful if you are flying in via Stormraven as it allow the Dreadnought to bail out at altitude without risking a Dangerous Terrain test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remtek Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Ran a game with a DC dread and 2 Furiso, the move through cover is quite amazing, the most useful thing from my experience was not getting -2 charging in terrain. Rolling 3d6 when moving is also really sweet. If podding Cassor i think smoke launchers might be better depending on how bad you need the melta shot..

Lucien Eilam Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 But Cassor already has a meltagun...I'm so confused! The point isn't the meltagun, the point is that Cassor comes with a magna-grapple and no option for smoke launchers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point isn't the meltagun, the point is that Cassor comes with a magna-grapple and no option for smoke launchers. We know that. Read the comment that I was replying to... he comes stock with talons, melta, magna and storm bolter. No wiggle room, no options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, that one is totally my bad, I thought he didn't have a meltagun but he actually doesn't have a Heavy Flamer, which isn't that big a deal. Cassor the Damned is actually quite a good Dreadnought to have if you own Shield of Baal. I know I will do exactly that, and call him Moriar the Damned.
