TheFinnishMarine Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 (If this has been covered elsewhere, feel free to delete or move to an other place) Hi guys. I've red the rules for Chronus a couple of times now and am not quite sure on them. They say to use Chronus' BS instead of the vehicles. Okay, everything's cool so far. But, they also say to use the characteristics of the vehicle he is in. Is the vehicle damage chart a characteristic of the vehicle. If so, wouldn't Chronus be basically useless. My own take on this would be to ignore the damage chart on part of the BS and always use Chronus' BS of a 2+, regardless the amount of wounds on the vehicle. -TheFinnishMarine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 It says to use the stats of the vehicle except for BS (which is replaced with Chronus'), so yes that includes the BS part of the damage chart too. Permanent BS2+ :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Idaho Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 (edited) I agree. Let's talk about the best units to put him it... I'm thinking the Stalker is surprisingly good for him. Hitting on a 2+ modified to 3+ against land units with 6 Stormcannon shots is pretty cool. Quite cheap too. However, the Land Raider Crusader is probably the all round best just for the sheer amount of guns fired. Giving it an extra wound each turn makes a Land Raider just harder to kill.

Ishagu Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 (edited) He's best in a Landraider, imo. He makes it more survivable with the repair, and the vehicle can move and always hits on a 2+ Cronus also makes upgrades like the Multi-Melta worthwhile :-) Use his abilities to amplify the most hard hitting tanks. Suddenly those flyers can be hit by 4 Las Cannons and a MM hitting on 3+ Edited July 5, 2017 by Ishagu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Idaho Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 The standard variant becomes a fearsome MBT with him, plus solid anti air. Expensive but if you're taking a Land Raider anyway and want a cheaper HQ, it becomes a bargain. Redrandy93 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheFinnishMarine Posted July 5, 2017 Author Share Posted July 5, 2017 Thanks for the amswers everyone. On the topic of using him, the Land Raiders all sound good ( except maybe the Redeemer). I also like him in a Predator if there is no points for a Land Raider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim Dog Studios Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 (edited) It would be great if you could take him in some of the FW vehicles. Chronus in a Sicaran would be very nice! Edited July 5, 2017 by Centurion Jay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bmseifer Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 Hmm a 2k army consisting of a spearhead with chronus, a LR and 2 preds alongside a low detachment with guilliman and two terminus ultras. Pretty good chance of going first and unload hell Redrandy93 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seahawk Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 I like this plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
