UniWolf Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 Just had my first game facing a knights and guard list and all I can say is ouch... I had a good game plan in place, go first and move my storm wolf containing 5 man terminator with TH/SS 20" follow with rune priest on bike with 2 razorbacks with grey hunters. Cast tempests wrath on one of the knights and spend 2 command points on cloaked by storm. Shoot with my 2 squads of long fangs and the twin multi melta storm wolf and cripple/kill a knight. then play what I see. So what went wrong, you might ask? he seized initiative, blew have my army off the board but failed to degrade the storm wolf and kill both pack of long fangs, then I wiffed massively with the long fangs and the shots that did go through he saved. From then on I was just grasping at straws. Any advice on how to take down a knight list?

dice4thedicegod Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 This is the big issue in shooty war games which have an I-go, You-go turn order: How do you survive turn 1 if you go second? Every list needs an answer, whether durability or hiding/terrain, or numbers.

TiguriusX Posted September 25, 2019 Share Posted September 25, 2019 always assume your opponent will go first or seize a stormwolf has 60" range i believe so you should be far away as possible to avoid guns other placement depends on terrain Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/358703-tactics-vs-imperium-lists/#findComment-5396430 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteySödes Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Against knights I just play the objective. Kill any CP batteries or other objective grabbers and just try to use the terrain to ring around the rosie. I feel pretty good about my ability to kill one knight at the least which prevent getting hemmed in but more than that it’s just luck. This is from tournament XP where I’m trying to bring a well rounded list vs overloading on the classic anti armor mind you.
