duz_ Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Nope absurdity of the chimera is you can issue orders out but being a vehicle can't receive orders from within .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
march10k Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Rofl...13 MoOs! Yet another reason so many TOs won't allow more than 2 detachments in a list...or can you take 13 HQs in a single CBG? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duz_ Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Yup the formation is 1+ HQ option So you can take multiple tank commanders too and its all 1 detachment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HenricusTyranicus Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 It's a cool idea, however, if your opponent brought even a couple deepstriking units it would have a very difficult time. Maybe bring 3 or 4 CCS as a supplement to a regular CAD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawk Posted February 19, 2016 Author Share Posted February 19, 2016 Possibly. The trick is outfitting. Sure they deepstrike on you and kill a squad or two, but then your reserve CCS's with a dozen meltaguns spring into action and wipe the floor with them. I tried this last night, using my list idea and not that deja moo silliness. Tell you what, the odds of getting a double for the Tactical autoreliquary go way up when you're issuing 3 orders on 3D6. After that, free orders for the world! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Plus that's sort of the Guard way - let them take out a minor unit and then obliterate them with returning fire... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mertbl Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 I thought you could only issue orders to units in your detachment. Wouldn't they only be able to order themselves? Possibly.

Seahawk Posted February 20, 2016 Author Share Posted February 20, 2016 Nope! No such restriction. You may issue orders to any friendly unit from this codex, even from other detachments, and even from other armies! As well, the Tactical Autoreliquary doesn't care. Thus, I used the one command squad with it to issue the first three orders cold blooded in an attempt to get free orders for the rest of the army. Each time it's a 43% chance of getting a double, though that includes double 5's and 6's, but still it's a good chance. ...when combined with a teammate who did horde guard (we didn't plan this), it gets amazeballs.
