Dracos Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Sounds like the DG was and the1000 Sons battle would have been a great game. The fluff monster in me dislikes fighting other Imperium units though at least they weren’t Astartes :) They look kinda cool but never been a fan of shotgun scouts (ok most all Scouts except Snipers). Definitely like bolters for cost :) Do you have any Aggressors or Hellblasters? If you’re SftS with a for slogging Captain why not do it with something that can rapid-fire/tear a while in your opponents backside for similar cost (admitted infantry biased)? Not sure how it played out but I don’t see the character assassination team as boneheaded. Rerolls to hit and wound? It was like having a mini-Gman deepstriking FTW. duz_ 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323795-wars-raven-guard-raptors/page/6/#findComment-5015981 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAR Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 I have both units but I like messing with people by using scouts. Plus 10th company was being worked on since mid 7th and that was their 1st game Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323795-wars-raven-guard-raptors/page/6/#findComment-5015995 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDecay Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Those games sound great!Scout bikes are super fun, it would be awesome to see more.I think triple predators with any load out are underrated; I use 3 with the kill shot stratagem and they are a work horse WAR 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323795-wars-raven-guard-raptors/page/6/#findComment-5016012 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think triple predators with any load out are underrated; I use 3 with the kill shot stratagem and they are a work horse I wish gw would restock them so I could get more of them Yeah I plans for 2 more predators destructors then I would like to do 2 Annhilator variants to add to the current brigade list I have in my head. Right now I’m trying to figure out all my fluff reasons for taking what I have that fits the scouts and support strike elements on the first strike cruiser before the rest of the army arrives on the battle barge.

Race Bannon Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 It just so happens I bought the side armor plates and plan on a review in the General PCA forum. I don't have the turret, although I am confident it is a bigger than the GW Predator turret. The review won't be for at least a couple of weeks :( Yet, so far, the pieces look great. Looking at pics online is making me to use them for my next Rhino hull. duz_ and WAR 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323795-wars-raven-guard-raptors/page/6/#findComment-5105427 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAR Posted June 14, 2018 Author Share Posted June 14, 2018 (edited) This is gonna look A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! Can't wait You know I wont build it stock, right......still toying with how I can "War009" it to fit my other planned Predator tanks.... Anvil's stuff is so awesome! I've used their stick mags and scopes on some of my models already, strongly considering some new arms, rifles and box mags for a squad of bolter scouts. Oh I used a ton of their bits on my scouts so far. I was running low and they were out of stock for a while. I usually equip them with a box mag and peq on the bolters then give 2 scouts tactical scopes and 2 sniper scopes out of a 5 man squad (5th guy has a missile launcher). Shotguns get the reflex sight. Like so It just so happens I bought the side armor plates and plan on a review in the General PCA forum. I don't have the turret, although I am confident it is a bigger than the GW Predator turret.

WAR Posted June 25, 2018 Author Share Posted June 25, 2018 Anvil Industries stuff arrived last week. I can tell they definitely updated the molds as there is a lot more detail on the items. Spent most of the "Staycation" last week cleaning and reorganizing my stuff. I have a ton of unbuilt stuff to build..... : -Lias Issoden (mk II)- Originally I was gonna do him as wearing Reiver armor but I think Im gonna put in a modified DW armor. -MK IV Apothecary- I'm running lots of MK IV on the characters so it fits. -MK 7 Apothecary- standard Apothecary -Master of Signals- 10th Company "Ancient" -2 10th Co LTs. -2 Librarians- one will be a converted Kill Team Cassius, Blood Raven Librarian and the other the standard Librarian. - Chaplain- Old Pewter bionic face one.....One of my Favorite Chaplains. -Imperial Space Marine (custom)- I'm gonna have him in MK VI so kneeling legs and torso gathered up. Lots of pouches and various bits gathered up. Still need to grab arms and some other bits for him. -Recon Squad- Sternguard -Land Speeder Tempest (3)- checked to make sure all the parts are there and how much work it is really gonna take me to build them. -25 scouts - thats before the scout bodies from the storms, and legs I got from Plookone before they were removed. And that is not counting the 26 already built -3 Land Speeder Storms -2 more regular land speeders- one tornado and the other wil be the 3rd typhoon) -2 more predators -Arm less Dreadnought- still need to acquire his quad autocannon arms. plus some other bits.... duz_, Race Bannon and Shadow Captain Vyper 3 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/323795-wars-raven-guard-raptors/page/6/#findComment-5112355 Share on other sites More sharing options...
