librisrouge Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Has anybody tried a Super-Heavy Detachment yet? I know that three Lords of War will take up a huge amount of points but it’s also awesome and I’m thinking of picking up a third IG super-heavy (Shadowsword) in order to try one out. iceman2160, Steel Company, Halfpint100 and 2 others 5 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340964-super-heavy-detachment/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steel Company Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 As Duz said, do it anyways, and get snap a picture of the guys face when you put it on the table.... should be good for a laugh. librisrouge 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340964-super-heavy-detachment/#findComment-4922261 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I think the cost involved is limiting use, as you're looking at about 1500pts or more? That's an army's worth, unless you go for some of the cheaper FW ones perhaps. Definitely a good excuse to pick up a third Baneblade variant if ever I saw one though Guardsman Bob and librisrouge 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340964-super-heavy-detachment/#findComment-4922273 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khornestar Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Could still probably have enough points left over for bubble wrapping them up to some degree.

Galron Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 For the LOLs I am actually planning just this as my next project to work on as I have the models in a bunch of pieces. A Valdor, Macharius Punisher or Vanquisher(I have both turrets) and a Macharius Omega. The points are fairly light for these superheavies so I should have plenty for the rest of my army in my standard 2250 and 2500 point games. Supported by heavy flamer sentinels, ubiquitous mortar squads, and infantry in chimeras. Another longer term project maybe when I get back from a 9 month not vacation in a sandbox somewhere is 2 Gorgons and a stormhammer(none of which I currently own) backed up by tanks and infantry for a slightly more serious DKOK army.

librisrouge Posted November 2, 2017 Author Share Posted November 2, 2017 This weekend, if I can go, I'm going to try this with a valdor and two baneblades. I'll have six infantry squads in a battalion to bubble wrap some (with Creed for orders and CPs.)
