Kilofix Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 Thinking about what to paint for the end of year hols. I suddenly feel like maybe I'll get a Leviathan Siege Dread Talon (all 3 with Cannon and Bombard) for my HH Deathguard. I'd been using Artillery for Heavys but now I feel like maybe DG should be all "walkers". Nobody talk me out of this! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316937-dread-talons-edit-used-to-be-what-should-i-arm-chucks/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hesh Kadesh Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 My only sad is that you can't take Talons of them even in a Drop Pod Orbital Assault and still run dual Fire Raptor.

Audemus Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 "Unleash the Fury Mitch!" Just remember it can't turn out worse than when I did the magical close eyes and click Checkout stunt for my 40k army. I ended up with this: http://i.imgur.com/VxRIz8f.png Which, after putting into the field once, has become a permanent fixture at home due to the terrifying process it took to transport it to the store. It killed a Landraider in that game...and wounded some Space Wolves. The Leviathan, from what I have read, will serve you much better in the field and will no doubt be much easier to transport! So what do you have to lose?!

Kilofix Posted December 14, 2015 Author Share Posted December 14, 2015 Placing my Levi Dread Talon order right now. But thought since I'm now doing Walkers for my Death Guard, I was going to get a 3 Contemptor (not Mortis) Talon too. But, what to arm them with? Quick! Need opinions, I'm pressing the button now, lol. Thanks!

Lord Asvaldir Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 My personal favorite is double fists with grav, but since you're death guard and probably not dropping contemptors may not be the best choice. Can never have enough choom, and the keres assault cannon is really good.

Slips Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 General Purpose: Kheres + Chain Fist w/ GravInfantry Killy: CHOOM or Fists w/ Heavy FlamersTank Killy: 2 Fists w/ GravGenerally Killy: Kheres x2Artillery 'Naut Heavy Conversion BeamerAnd a few other load outs but this is what I lean towards.

Charlo Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Can you go dual conversion beamers? Imagine the thing that got hit with 6 S10 ap1 large blasts on the other side of the board :P Hell even 6 S8 Ap4 at mid range isn't bad against some foes... Bet it costs a boat load on points tho Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/316937-dread-talons-edit-used-to-be-what-should-i-arm-chucks/#findComment-4252203 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilofix Posted December 14, 2015 Author Share Posted December 14, 2015 Choom and only choom. Do it. Double Choom? Good thinking, I'm going with that, thanks! Can't wait, pictures when I get them all painted. On a yet separate note, it's odd that there's a Contemptor Talon and a Leviathan Talon but not a Deredeo Talon (as in the latter only comes in a Unit of 1).

Slips Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I'd opt for Balance Reasons. With how effective Deredeos are, Taloning them up would make them very good.

Kilofix Posted December 14, 2015 Author Share Posted December 14, 2015 Thinking about it more, double Choom's a good choice I think (thanks again LYD). Double Kheres may be better but as they're similar, I'd go Volkites for a more 30K flavor. HC Beamer may be tough because I'd probably want to walk my Contemptors and HCB has that Firing Calibration. And you can't take double of them. And Grav, I'm not sure about since I can't Pod a Talon, nor with Reaping. Also I should have mentioned, I already have 3 X 40K Dreads with Las and Missile, that I'm going to repaint in DG colors. So I'll have a Volkite Contemptor Dread Talon, Las/ML Castraferrum Dread Talon, Storm / Grav Leviathan Talon and one AC Deredeo, lol. That should be a good fluffy mix. Can't wait to get my paws on everything and start painting. Will post pics.
