Land Raider version ?

[Closet Skeleton]

Sadly, Storm Ravens are still the best Land Raider pattern if you actually want to transport stuff because GW can't bring themselves to cost flyers fairly.

 

I've taken out knight lists with a two LRC list so they are adaptable.

Well the Storm raven is a great choice but what puts the LR/LRC first is T8, which makes it a lot more resilient.

Depending on my LR pattern, I'll maybe switch my termies with vets (both vanguard & sternguard).

Well it's T8 vs -1 to-hit, not being able to get charged except by Fly units and superior mobility.

I too think the Stormraven is the better transport AND it has lots of dakka on top of it unfortunately.

[Tonius]

LR: T8, 2+ save

SR: T7, 3+ save, -1 to hit, fly

 

Well the storm raven was my initial choice as my army big vehicule, but I've been told that ones needs at least a T8 big model on the table.

That's why I swapped to the LR. But I get your meaning, moreover, the SR is a bit cheaper.

 

I'm still in the "thinking what to buy" phase concerning the big vehicules (I already have Razorback/whirlwind/dread) ....

The Land Raider is slightly tougher with both T8 and 2+ armor, compared to -1 to hit, but the Raven is much faster, is generally better at shooting, and can also transport a Dread. There isn't really a contest there, the Raven is just better, unless your taking a Crusader and a big squad of something that wouldn't actually fit in the Raven, like more than 6 terminators.

I think I not gonna make my choice today ;P Edited August 18, 2017 by Tonius

I haven't had a single T8 unit in any of my lists so far and didn't get the feeling I'm missing out on something. I also don't know why it should be like that. A tough unit is nice but definitely not a must have.

If you wanna be wayyyy out there, you could always try and get the War Hammer world exclusive LR which is a more anti-tank Godhammer, yet comes with a Rhino with an orbital strike.
