greatcrusade08 Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Hi guys ive been hearing about a stratagem that allows you to outflank a number of units (i think based on PL). but cant seem to find any information on it. Can anyone confirm please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry i don't know how to post a picture thank youFor Guard you also have the Tallarn strategem and in general there's a relic called the dagger of tuh'sak or something like that. Both are in our Codex. Edited January 27, 2021 by sairence Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatcrusade08 Posted January 27, 2021 Author Share Posted January 27, 2021 the relic is good, does have the points tax of the platoon commander. I found the section of the rule book mentioned above, and that looks really good, multiple cheap units like special weapons teams outflanking for a single CP. Its cool we have some interesting options Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slave to Darkness Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Think its worth outflanking some Deathriders? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greatcrusade08 Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 Think its worth outflanking some Deathriders? possibly, you cant deploy in opponents deployment zone, but worth considering it, as it probably gets you near an objective that an opponent want to claim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Death Riders have their own built in outflank and can come in from any table edge. They don't need to use any strats for it. I'm currently running them in my TTS lists. 2-3 full squads with a commander making up my frontline and some veteran squads and another commander in reserves. Their smaller foot print makes it easier to squeeze them in. One thing to keep in mind is that the regular squads will be disappointing as damage dealer. WS 4+ really hurts them. So you should see them more as tanks that can soak up unholy amounts of damage with their FNP and 3W perm model. The Vets are a bit better in terms of damage thanks to 2A base and WS 3+.

greatcrusade08 Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 (edited) nice i didnt know that, ive not looked at death riders that much tbh, clearly they are superior to rough riders. in terms of outflanking i was considering special weapons squads packed out with flamers, limits us to 18" threat range from the table edge, but nullifies WS 4+ Edited January 28, 2021 by greatcrusade08 walter h 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GuardDaddy Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 I like special weapons to do something that lasguns dont - high volume of low strength low ap shots is not something guard army lacks normally. So plasma/melta my choice. I like outflanking (reserves) - currently torn between spending CP to bring in regular guard - or higher points of scions.

greatcrusade08 Posted January 28, 2021 Author Share Posted January 28, 2021 scions are essentially veteran troops. i can definately see why people use them, Deepstrike, multiple special weapons, whats not to like? not sure i see why you would outflank with scions when you can drop them and be a bigger threat to the centre.. meltaguns for BS3+ for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
