Hintzy Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 This thread has been very insightful, thanks for all of your running commentary. Good luck! I'm curious to know how the single Invictor works out. It seems like the type of unit you might need to take several of to make work. Unless the intent is just to draw a few shots away from your Contemptors on the first turn? If I missed your answer to that question previously, sorry.

Morticon Posted September 13, 2019 Author Share Posted September 13, 2019 Keeble, two of my vanvets have dual chainswords. With rage they each get 6 attacks. The shields are more valuable though. Hintzy, The Invictor has been a game changer for me. He's 131 points of distraction carnifex. He becomes target priority one, which is where his strength lies, not only in his potential damage output. I foresee these guys in almost every marine list Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/356249-road-to-east-china-open-sept-2019/page/8/#findComment-5387626 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hintzy Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 "Drawing a few shots away from your Contemptors" was a long winded way of saying distraction Carnifex I guess.

Panzer Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 If you want a unit that dishes out lots of S4 AP0 attacks I'd rather take DC with chainsword and Bolter instead of VV with double chainswords. Same amount of attacks in melee but also 1-2 S4 AP0 shots at 12"/24" range per model and a 6+++ for about 15 more points or something per 5 models.

Leonaides Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Sounds like you're taking advantage of their unpreparedness very nicely. Now make sure they don't make the same mistakes again and give em a good kicking!

Morticon Posted September 14, 2019 Author Share Posted September 14, 2019 The Death Guard player had a fantastic list and was a strong player, but oddly, in Shanghai, BA had fallen off the map, so this allowed me to capitalise.

Morticon Posted September 15, 2019 Author Share Posted September 15, 2019 Ultramarines only undefeated, and is paired vs Shaezus' BA/Admech next turn. If Shaezus beats him, there will be 6 players on 5-1 meaning it will go to SoS.

Morticon Posted September 15, 2019 Author Share Posted September 15, 2019 Muscle beach takes it 20-18.... Rushed last two turns saw me make a tactical blunder that would have had us at 19-19. Little bleak. But he played a brilliant brilliant game and rolled disgustingly hot to boot. No mistakes on his part.
