Prot Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 Ye predators are really nasty. Expecially with DA. Gunline with azrael and darkshroud equals -1 to hit and 4+ invuln. Good luck killing those preddy... It’s effective, but not optimal. If we’re talking about a zero fat ITC style cut throat I would leave preds at home. There’s more efficient ways of doing it. But we are way off topic here. Bottom line is Razorbacks are still available to GK but I think the bigger problem is the army plays far too dynamic to babysit static auras. GK have great individual models that are effective in all phases of the game. That’s what makes them so hard to balance. They remind me of the stealth class in first person shooter video games.... they either OP or underwhelming. The balance with something so flexible is very hard to establish. This is a personal opinion but so far 8th hasn’t changed the power rankings. I still believe you are going to play GK in this edition for other reasons. Otherwise for some people here it’s going to be a very long edition of non stop moaning.

Zombs Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 Ye I mean, we are what we are atm. Let's just try to do our best with what we got. Speaking of this I think would be dope to open a thread like "GK tactica" similar to what the others factions have in this forum Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/341043-how-do-you-guys-deal-with-girlyman/page/2/#findComment-4928690 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gentlemanloser Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 GK tactica. Half half your units in deep strike, half on board. DS first turn with FttF and pray you get charge distance with as many units as possible. ;) Capt.

skarn Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 I really rate taking an inquisitor and a bunch of 8pt single acolyte units and putting them in a raven or razor. For 100pts you can have 6-8 units on the board, freeing up a lot more gk units for deepstriking.

skarn Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 (edited) The raven counts as a single deployment drop as per the faq.

We personally play by the FAQ already do at bestt it gives you +1to go first. Some great ideas in this thread though.

Aothaine Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 That is a really good idea! Including cheap chaff so you can deepstrike your main force. Dang I should have thought of that. This can be applied to so many other armies as well!

Gentlemanloser Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Accolytes are basically the only choice for this. As they have the authoity of the inqyistion rule (or whatever is called! ) and can ride in anyones transports.
