Sawtooth Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I'm interested in Valkyries but have no experience with flyers, how do you find them with the new Codex? What do you like to transport in them? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/376851-valkyries/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCC Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I love the models and will start using mine again with this new codex. I bought a laser cut foam and made my own wooden box to carry it and a couple tanks and sentinels.

MrKoolPants Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Beautiful models, cool concept, not-so-good in terms of competitive play.

Harrowmaster Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I'm not a competitive player at all so can't comment on that. I am happy with the valk now though, the increased BS and multilaser buffs are decent, will need to break mine out to support my inquisitorial stormtroopers, who can now drop out of it risk free/ I'll probably pick up a second one at some point too, that way I'll have two valks and a vendetta.

Do you run your stormtroopers as Scions or Kasrkin? I'm on the fence about what to transport since Kasrkin are just generally fantastic but Scions get the 6" grav chute.

Harrowmaster Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I haven't been playing with the new codex but I'll probably run my inquisition stormtroopers as scions, even though kasrkin are generally better.

Shamansky Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Well, there are some cases where scions are better than kasrkin, but those require to build the whole army around scions.

mertbl Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 (edited) I'm looking real hard at a cult of sacrifice kasrkin squad in a valk. Jumping out, losing a guy to a broken ankle and gaining that +1 to hit. Maybe have an officer jump out with them, he will be able to do an order or 2 when he gets there. Kasrkin in a valk and a squad in a taurox and a barbarian key unit all moving at least 17"(14+3" disembark) could really shift a fight early. Or at very least introduce 1 hell of a central objective holding block. Even position the valk to block charges. If you do it all in the right order, Creed could pass out orders to all of them, they won't splash but might be enough. Cult unit will hit on 2s, take aim another unit to hit on 2s. 3rd unit just does its thing.

Harrowmaster Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Just be careful with the officers, if disembarking they can only issue one order and regimental tactics doesn't apply.

"It can issue orders as if it was your command phase" if you jump creed or a castellan out, they can do their 3 or 2 orders. It just doesn't splash.
