sockwithaticket Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 I was under the impression that certain HH weapons weren't going to be included in the FW Index... But it's previously been available to 40k armies, the only one that hasn't is the Graviton cannon. Don't know why the mortar would suddenly become 30k only.

NovemberIX Posted July 9, 2017 Share Posted July 9, 2017 (edited) Well the FAQ has fixed a couple of issues, which is nice. We have Quad Mortars again. https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/07/09/forge-world-faq-july9gw-homepage-post-4/ Edited July 9, 2017 by NovemberIX Grim Dog Studios and Trixie 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336307-no-rapier-quad-mortar-in-40k/page/2/#findComment-4813583 Share on other sites More sharing options...

LutherMax Posted July 9, 2017 Author Share Posted July 9, 2017 Why that wasn't in the book in the first place I have no idea! Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336307-no-rapier-quad-mortar-in-40k/page/2/#findComment-4813754 Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronin_cse Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 Why that wasn't in the book in the first place I have no idea! I'm sure because it was rushed, FW is a small team, and FW isn't exactly known for their error free books LutherMax 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336307-no-rapier-quad-mortar-in-40k/page/2/#findComment-4814876 Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainMarsh Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 I am thinking about getting these guys. What are your thoughts on LD vs Quad Mortar? Also, I can't seem to find the Quad Mortar on FW.

CaptainMarsh Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 Strange. It isn't showing up in my search. Thank you.Anyway- thoughts on them in 8th?

LutherMax Posted July 11, 2017 Author Share Posted July 11, 2017 Strange. It isn't showing up in my search. Thank you. Anyway- thoughts on them in 8th? The Thunderfire shells are 60" Heavy 4D3 S5 AP0 D1 and do not require line of sight The Shatter shells are 24" Heavy 4 S8 AP-2 D3 Thunderfire shells obviously pretty great for long range anti-infantry. You have an anti-vehicle option too, albeit quite short range.

CaptainMarsh Posted July 11, 2017 Share Posted July 11, 2017 How would you compare that to the Laser Destroyer option? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336307-no-rapier-quad-mortar-in-40k/page/2/#findComment-4816345 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LutherMax Posted July 11, 2017 Author Share Posted July 11, 2017 How would you compare that to the Laser Destroyer option? Well the Laser Destroyer range is 36" so the middle ground. It's only Heavy 1, but S12 AP-4 D6 (with the potential to be 2D6 or 3D6) so it's a real heavy / super heavy vehicle killer. Due to being one shot I'd want three of these in a list ideally, and they are three melta bombs more expensive than the Quad Launcher. It really comes down to what you're facing.

Helias_Tancred Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 I just run mine with Thunderfire stats in the meantime, and no one seems to care much?

LutherMax Posted July 12, 2017 Author Share Posted July 12, 2017 The FAQ confirmed you can take the Quad Launcher with the Rapier Carrier, and the points for the Launcher are in the book (because it's the same weapon as on the Achilles.

Ishagu Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 Laser Destroyer isn't ideal imo. The tanks it hunts are longer range. I'd chose the Deimos Vindicator over one instead.
