Link2edition Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 So this got me thinking.We can take 5 man squads with 2 powerfists, we can fit two of these in a drop pod. Total point cost: 213Has anyone run a list that just spams a ton of these 213 point pods? Most things don't like getting hit by powerfists.Is it stupid? YesIs it effective? UnlikelyBut is it hilarious? Definitely.Sometimes the enemies of the imperium are just insistin on a fistin.I have the models for this, so I may give it a shot before 9th drops. Have any of you already tried it? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364562-miniwargamings-bt-batrep-got-me-thinking/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medjugorje Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 One game I played 9 Crusadersquads of 5 in Rhinos - all equiped with power fists / hammers. But I won the game because of my squad of 10 Vanguards Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364562-miniwargamings-bt-batrep-got-me-thinking/#findComment-5543296 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Carpenter Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Sound hilarious. Fist your oppnonent to death Way back in 4th or 5th ed. I won a local tournament with a black tide, all walking angry marines, while the meta was tanks. I had more models than the orc players... Everyone that could wield a pwr sword did so. It was great. Go for it. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364562-miniwargamings-bt-batrep-got-me-thinking/#findComment-5544618 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medjugorje Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 what is even more important. GW told in a stream about reserves can come within 1" in your own deploymentzone. Funny If you take back 2x5 man which would cost 166 at the moment for 10 power fist attacks Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364562-miniwargamings-bt-batrep-got-me-thinking/#findComment-5544692 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirJyo Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Now the question would be do you wait until turn 3 and hide otherwise? Or go in turn one with 0 ap chainswords Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/364562-miniwargamings-bt-batrep-got-me-thinking/#findComment-5544962 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medjugorje Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 hold back a few units to save your deployment zone is not a bad idea I think.

Link2edition Posted June 19, 2020 Author Share Posted June 19, 2020 I was pointing it out using a 7 drop pod list. Unfortunately I don't have enough power fist sarges to try it (I am a stickler for wysiwyg) but I could probably make some, lord knows I have the bits.
