[Captain Sandoval]

"...tac squads get better at shooting squads as they whither away."

 

They don't necessarily get better, but do stay consistent with the give and take of combat.

I think you can really take advantage of this with a Heavy Bolter Devastator Squad and 2 x Rhino Primaris (bit cheesy though)

 

Chapter Tactic (10+ models) or Slay the Tyrant (if character) = +1 to hit roll

2 x Rhino Primaris = +2 to hit roll

Captain = re-roll 1s

 

Use Bolter Drill, so any 3+ (with above modifiers) give you an additional attack.

 

3 of them then do up to 18 hits at S5 AP-1.

 

On one of them you then use Hellfire Shells, Signum (bolter drill then procs on a 2+ with a re-roll) and the Cherub to pretty much guarantee 4D3 mortal wounds...

 

2 CP for an average of 8 Mortal Wounds + an extra 9 x S5 shots.

Hiya,

Would you please explain how you can stack the +1 to hit from 2 rhino primaris? I was under the impression that same buffs don't stack.

So is there any kind of consensus on who is better between crimson and imperial fists?
