Gumo9 Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 I've finished my Thunderhawk ! So, what should I put in it? A transport capacity of 30 models means it is a massive points investment so i would probably build the entire list around it. I'd be interested in your opinions for fun games of around 3000 points or more. Thanks folks G Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gumo9 Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 Ooooh. Bit of a Death Company theme going on here. I'm liking it. Jump troops count as 2 models, bikes as 3, and dreads as 10. Originally i was thinking of 10 jump pack troops and a furioso so that i could land the troops close and benefit from hammer of wrath. But now you've got me thinking.

One of the best things about a SHV transport is the ability to take multiple units. So opt for some synergy! Oh, and she doesn't fit on a Skyshield Landing Pad so no first turn shenanigans :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlo Posted February 5, 2016 Share Posted February 5, 2016 Do the rules say it has to "fit"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlangWhanger Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Land Raider? ;) I heard they like jumping out of Thunderhawks.... Deploying bikes out of it would be pretty cool, though probably a bit unnecessary considering their speed. Otherwise 13 DC with Astorath and a jump Libby, especially if the THawk is painted black with red crosses! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quixus Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 Land Raider? I heard they like jumping out of Thunderhawks....They haven't done that since 5th edition. deep striking land raiders with a mawloc style attack, for dropping a huge chunk of metal on the heads of the enemy would be awesome.

Brother Raul Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 2 stormravens with DC embarked. Be like a babushka of death. Too bad that's not even remotely legal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad that's not even remotely legal.Why would you put a Stormraven in a Thunderhawk? Two stormravens with up to 12 DC per plane is legal though.

Blindhamster Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 when ive used mine, ive tended toward dante + 2 units of sanguinary guard plus 2 priests (this was old codex so thats 26 capacity gone). the 30 capacity is nowhere near as great if you use jump infantry in it, i imagine 3 tactical squads dropping out and rapid firing could be fun tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Raul Posted February 6, 2016 Share Posted February 6, 2016 ALL of my ideas are designed to mess with my opponent. Imagine shooting down a thunderhawk to watch 2 stormravens rise from the ashes. Wowee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
