Ultramarinebo Posted June 19, 2017 Share Posted June 19, 2017 Solid list man! Can't say there is much wrong with it - I'd maybe considered bailing your rapiers for a Mortis Dread with 2 Las cannons. Rapiers are sweet but I've found the 36inch + artillery movement to be an issue unless they deploy close with something like infiltrate. A dread could fill the same role along with add some more Anti-air.

Geoffy Posted June 19, 2017 Author Share Posted June 19, 2017 Why Storm Eagles instead of Fire Raptor Gunships? My intent was use them as transports for the reavers and vets along with AA Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/334995-2500-point-luna-wolves/#findComment-4789777 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoffy Posted June 23, 2017 Author Share Posted June 23, 2017 (edited) Anyone else? Thoughts on if armored ceramite isn't needed on the flyers?

Ultramarinebo Posted June 24, 2017 Share Posted June 24, 2017 Yea I reckon you wouldn't need the armoured cera on the flyers. If you're careful with your movement and always jink you should be ok. If you take the Mortis dread too you'll ended end up saving close to 55 points which could go into a 3rd apothecary Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/334995-2500-point-luna-wolves/#findComment-4795336 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffy Posted June 27, 2017 Author Share Posted June 27, 2017 (edited) Quick rules question... If I have 10 units in a POTL list is it legal to have 5 with LA and 5 without? I am counting vehicles as dedicated transports as units without the LA rule because the ROW does not explicitly exclude them. I haven't ever been able to find a consensus statement on this Edited June 27, 2017 by Geoffy Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/334995-2500-point-luna-wolves/#findComment-4798488 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caillum Posted June 27, 2017 Share Posted June 27, 2017 "The majority of the units in the detachment must have the Legiones Astartes special rule..." So no, 5 and 5 isn't legal. You need 6 units with LA in order to take 5 without. But you're right about the Dedicated Transport bit. They count as a non-LA unit. For the OP, Ultramarinebo's suggestion is a good one. You could also drop the HSS hardened armour - I would only take it in ZM.

I'm getting ready to try it out this Thursday and am interested to see how the mortis does. I've always believed a dreadnought should have a gun and a claw but maybe shooting planes out of the sky with the greatest of ease is worth it?

Ultramarinebo Posted June 28, 2017 Share Posted June 28, 2017 GLHF in the game! Never underestimate Mortis' BS 5 too, makes such a difference. Just be careful of outflank/deep striking melta Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/334995-2500-point-luna-wolves/#findComment-4800119 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffy Posted June 30, 2017 Author Share Posted June 30, 2017 Ran my list last night against 2500 of raven guard. Did very well. The reavers and vets never had to get out of their storm eagles. Those birds are awesome! I ended up shooting corax off the table gangland style in one turn. Mortis was an awesome threat bubble when his fire raptor was trying to come on table and the 10 BS 5 missiles were great as well. Not too many things like taking 10 krak missiles to the face every turn. Thanks again for your help! I think I will continue with this list for now guys. Now if I could just track down some Luna wolves decals...
