Calling all Imperium Players!!!!

[Fungus A]

The whole army? Terminators, loads of them, on the flanks, with assault cannons preferably. Alternativly, take the fight to them, kayvaan shrike kills nids in his sleeps.

I was thinking dreadnoughts will shine against this new dex.

Lictors will know longer be able to attack and kill him right away, and with the amount of swarm armies coming onto the table his assault cannon, Heavy Flamer, Close Combat Arm combo is going to do quite well. I predict the same for land speeders, Heavy Bolter, Assault Cannon.

As for dealing with the big guys, lascannons in dev squads and predators with lascannons will continue their jobs.

Overall my assessment of the dex is that all the units have been given defined roles on the battlefield, there really aren't any units that are good at everything. Meaning my idea for a strategy should work quite nicely.

By the way Reaper I'm not posting my strategy on this link. You'll have to discover my strategy on thursday when we battle. Muwahahahahahahah.

The best way to learn the weakness of an enemy is to just ask lol

Lictors are now even better against Dreadnought than before, as they got a S6 rending shooting attack versus AV10 against dreads.
In CC it would be S6 Rending versus Av12. =!

Cheers!

Too bad you're new strategy won't make a difference as I will still be using the old dex. I don't got any money for the new one. But if you wan't to buy it for me I definately won't stop you.

[orkblasta]

K I'll buy the new one for you but I'll just make a few adjustments to the rules and profiles.


Now where's my black marker.

My cousin plays with templates. Lots of them. Specifically 3 vindicators. They're deadly. I rendered two of them inert in a single turn with a trygon prime and a squad of zoanthropes.

We can outflank and deep strike and have the best anti-tank weapon in the game. Bring templates. Bring Flamers. I dare you.

To quote our beloved warmaster a second time in this thread "you're all gonna die"

[Fungus A]

I'm sorry, But our templates will still beat you, you can have your trygons and your mawlocs, but we will have the emperor and his eternal beacon of power! Down with the Xenos scum!

[orkblasta]

I second that Fungus A, and to everyone else doesn't the title of this thread say Calling All Imperium Player!!!!. Not Calling All Imperium Players and if you Xeno players want to join in that should be ok too!!!!.

[smurfnomore]

well, as soon as they quit closing stores in Michigan, i'm going with my old strategy of rapid firing and hoping that I pass my leadership so I can get my counter attack.

that should hopefully take care of some of the smaller stuff. but as for the bigger stuff i have absolutely no idea other than long fangs with LCs

Irregardless, at least he loves us and doesn't shun us like your Hive mind lol

(lol irregardless is an actual word apparently)

[braytac]

i think i wil just use a bunch of sternguard whit there helfire rounds and antie cover rounds and keep pedro close to get 3 atacks per marine if the buggers get to combat.
and some combie flamer/plasmas will help too:P

now i think of it sternguard are the perfect anti nid weapon.
witch ever bug you are facing you can kill it whit the appropriate round.

[Psychichobo]

The sternguard ap3 rounds certain pack some anti-mc punch, as do the 2+ wounders. What does shine, however, is the marine ability to ignore cover saves. Whirlwinds and Sternguard irk me.

[orkblasta]

yah I hadn't looked at the stern guard as anti-nid but your right they will work.

(please do not swear) now I have to go get some.
