BrainFireBob Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Greetings, frater. I obtained a Repulsor tank for my birthday and I'm eyeing the new Primaris Chaplain. What all is everyone putting in their Repulsor tank? I'm considering a "basic" squad of Rievers with Chappy to support my trio of Land Speeder Storms and Scouts for an aggressive, in-you-face Marine list. I'm not expecting top-tier competitive, but I am looking for opinions on what's working for everyone. A speed list appeals! duz_ 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340457-repulsor-what-contents/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frater Cornelius Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Belated Happy Birthday! My Repulsor is almost always reserved for 5-6 Hellblasters with the Rapid Fire guns and pretty much all Primaris Characters, which take 4 slots at most. That way I am able to push the amount of deployment drops to a minimum. However, that is my competitive list. If you want it is fit your thematic, may I suggest 10 Intercessors, combat squadded, with the Assault 2 guns? They can keep pace with your Scouts. Reavers can drop from up high with their Grav Shutes. Heck, you may even want to consider 5-10 Assault Hellblasters, acting as sort of specialists in your spec ops list. Of course you can put in Reivers and save 2ppm, but I would rather put in units that suffer from poor mobility, which the Reivers do not.

Stoic Raptor Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Hellblasters seem to be a popular choice - or you could go with 5 Aggressors. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340457-repulsor-what-contents/#findComment-4910315 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiky Norman Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I'm putting 7 Hellblasters and 3 non-Gravis armoured characters in it (Captain, Apothecary & Ancient).

BluejayJunior Posted October 16, 2017 Share Posted October 16, 2017 I usually go with 5 hellblasters and 5 intercessors. I don't have any Aggressors or Reivers though. I'm not super competitive.

Frater Cornelius Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Well, funnily enough, Aggressors and arguably Reiver are the less competitive choices :p Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340457-repulsor-what-contents/#findComment-4910653 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoic Raptor Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Oh, I just like the Aggressors because I think they look wicked and throw tons of dakka.

Ishagu Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I put 5 Hellblasters and 5 Intercessors in each of my Repulsors. If I was only running one I'd put 10 Hellblasters in it, or 9 with a Captain.

Prot Posted October 20, 2017 Share Posted October 20, 2017 My Repulsor usually hosts my elite and HQ's in fun games, simply to reduce drops. But in games where I'm afraid of indirect or just a speedy shooty list, I hide the Helblasters in it.

RandomMarine Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Aggressors and gravis Captain + ancient + Lt. I play IH so fnp + re rolls to hit and wound + dying attack.

Ishagu Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Make sure you take TWO Repulsors. Imo one is a target that won't last more than two turns at best.

Lemondish Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Make sure you take TWO Repulsors. Imo one is a target that won't last more than two turns at best. This. And don't forget it can fly, so you can hide it behind LoS blocking terrain to keep it (and its contents) safe before you fly over it and disembark. Because of that, I like to put in Hellblasters.

justicarius6 Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Repulsors are the only way to get Aggressors into any kind of threat range, but I could see a use for it transporting two squads of intercessors to grab upfield objectives.

Stoic Raptor Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Advancing does the job pretty well - moving up to 11" isn't much slower than a vehicle in most cases. Seeing as they can fire without penalty while doing so, if you have other, slower troops (like Hellblasters) you may want to embark those instead.
