Iron Father Ferrum Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 So I've used our Chapter stratagem on all kinds of vehicles: Dreadnoughts, Razorbacks, Hunters, Stalkers, Vindicators, Stormtalons, and Stormhawks. Right now, since they provide a hefty amount of my firepower, my most common target is my aircraft (Stormtalons hitting in 2s can lay down a LOT of pain). What is your preferred machine to empathize with? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/352536-your-favorite-machine-empathy-target/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 I think aircraft are a very good shout due to their speed letting you get them in a good spot first, but anything with lots of shots is a fair choice to get the most bang. Dreads don't quite muster enough shots for me (plus are a bit slower) but a Predator Annihilator is my prime choice if you need to redeploy and make those lascannons count :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/352536-your-favorite-machine-empathy-target/#findComment-5220442 Share on other sites More sharing options...
robofish7591 Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 My predator destructors are usually the ones I use the stratagem on. Once one of the preds in my killshot formation get destroyed, I can split the other two off to support my other units. I have two unbuilt vindicators, and I am sure they will get some use out of it once they hit the table!

zero88 Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 A Dakka Redemptor looks a good choice.. 18 shots going from 4s to 3s to hit is pretty solid. Otherwise I would say Quad Las Predators also. If you really want to get cheeky a double Melta Speeder on a Target of opportunity could be nasty :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/352536-your-favorite-machine-empathy-target/#findComment-5221704 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daimyo-Phaeron Lenoch Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 Heavy weps venerable dreadnoughts (keeping that BS2+ is really nice), stormtalons to ensure that the twin assault cannons actually hit, and my Land Raider Excelsior (because done right, you can get BS2+ with 4-pluses triggering extra shots, rerolling ones). Basically anything with more than a couple heavy weapons that has a tasty target just outside LoS.

Iron Father Ferrum Posted December 23, 2018 Author Share Posted December 23, 2018 Does the Excelsior not have POTMS? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/352536-your-favorite-machine-empathy-target/#findComment-5221734 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daimyo-Phaeron Lenoch Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 It does. In my defense I was fighting Dark Eldar and had so many modifiers to deal with that the thought never crossed my mind. I only spent one CP on the LRE, and had no other good targets for it (everything else stayed still) so in the end it didn't really matter.

Johanhgg Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 I like using it on a leviathan Dreadnought. Pretty ok with 2xstorm cannons at full BS!
