Hammerfall Bunker themed as a prepper´s den with lots of impaled heads littering the premises. And don´t forget the lipstick on the heads. This would be a great diorama! Use a Votann as your hobo with a shotgun across his lap while sipping moonshine and we are talking Golden Demon material here.

Orange Knight Posted October 22 Share Posted October 22 We joke about the Hammerfall bunker but the model is great and it's one rule ammendment away from being fun. Just needs Deepstrike...

Evil Eye Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 The Hammerfall Bunker is... fine? Had it been released for Planetstrike as a terrain piece for that I think I would like it more. It's far from the worst thing to come from the Primaris range, but it falls afoul of the same issue as a lot of modern GW terrain where it's so obviously meant to be an army component that it comes across a little overly toyetic. Personally I'm not a fan of faction terrain being part of the army list, and feel like it works better reserved for specific scenarios (attacker/defender etc).

DemonGSides Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 I'd mostly be happy with it if it actually came with deep strike. I'm not sure what they're afraid of. It's not like it's that impactful.

Brother Tyler Posted October 23 Share Posted October 23 Note that I split these posts from the discussion in NRBA about the Space Marine Heads kit. It was off-topic there, but relevant and worthy of further discussion in the appropriate place.

It's not like it's that impactful. Deepstrike, or Being able to play it anywhere and shift terrain if necessary. Something to make it so you can build around it and guarantee some sort of plan for it.

Karhedron Posted October 24 Share Posted October 24 The Hammerfall is basically an immobile vehicle with 0OC but is not a very good one. For a few points more you can get a Land Raider which is just as tough, has 2 more wounds, better weapons, mobility and Transport capacity. The Hammerfall brings no useful abilities but has a high points cost and mediocre firepower. Shame as the model and concept are quite cool but the rules are terrible.

DemonGSides Posted October 24 Share Posted October 24 Yeah let it deepstrike and then it at least has a sort of niche. It'd be cool if it could also be a transport as it deep strikes, but then why would you ever bring a drop pod. Maybe it could be a 5 man drop pod? Either way, it's boring right now. I like mine, it looks cool and harkens to Starcraft Bunkers+missile turrets, but it's just way too expensive currently for what it does.

HeadlessCross Posted October 24 Share Posted October 24 Saw an idea online where you start one and a squad of Intercessors on an objective, and then run the Intercessors out while the Hammerfall just keeps the objective after that.

That probably is about the best use you could make of one but I still don't think it's great or that there isn't a better use of the points.

Depends the rest of the list. It's durable for the price point and gets free Overwatch with the Heavy Flamers. That's a plan that has to be built around though, so I'd never do it.

DemonGSides Posted October 25 Share Posted October 25 There was a guy who was running two or three of them and a smattering of the Firestrikes earlier in 10th, but I think it's not that big of a speed bump for some meta armies Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/386982-hammerfall-bunkers/#findComment-6138525 Share on other sites More sharing options...
