Beams Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 I feel like these are seriously cheap and powerful, but there only downside is the model doesn't exist. Has anyone scratch built/converted/third partied them? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336694-sabre-search-lights/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris521 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 I don't have an answer to your question, but I figured I'd let you know that they did get a nerf with the FAQ that was just released. https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/07/15/new-and-updated-forge-world-faqs-july16gw-homepage-post-2/ tldr: the searchlights only work for infantry and other sabres, and multiple lights don't stack.

HenricusTyranicus Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 To be fair, Conscript squads were probably always the best use for them anyway. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336694-sabre-search-lights/#findComment-4820294 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Feral_80 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Don't bother. They have just been FAQ'd and became useless again. Fair enough. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336694-sabre-search-lights/#findComment-4820383 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beams Posted July 15, 2017 Author Share Posted July 15, 2017 That's a shame I was hoping to use them and Harker to improve my tanks. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/336694-sabre-search-lights/#findComment-4820389 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrowmaster Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 They're still not useless they can buff the twin autocannons on other sabres or better yet stormtroopers for 2+ to hit.

MagicHat Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 They're still not useless they can buff the twin autocannons on other sabres or better yet stormtroopers for 2+ to hit. Stormtroopers don't have the <REGIMENT> keyword. Disappointed me at first, but... Doesn't really fit IMO. "We are the special forces, now light up our foes with a floodlight!"

KGatch113 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 So you take 2 batteries of 2, one with a searchlight the other with lascannons. +1 to hit flyers due to skyfire and +1 to hit because of the light, so hitting on 2+, probably -1 to hit because of Hard to Hit. That's not bad for aerial defense. I don't have hydra stats nearby, how does that match up?

Maarten Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Hoooo boys do I have a treat for you! I made a design for them when the new book came out. They take a 20mm lens, I'm working on the FW style louvred cover and base now.

I don't suppose you have any images of the 28mm tank commander painted up you can message me? Thinking of using them for DKOK is all.

I'm not responsible for anything but the things I upload on that site, it is a company that prints and sells your 3d designs for you and in exchange you get a small share of the profit.

Maarten Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Bit of a necro but I finished the whole platform. I think there's currently a discount offered by shapeways so get them while it lasts!
