So today, I fancied trying something new, To mix things up a little, and was determined to use A land raider.
So in about 5 minutes, I came up with this.
HQ-
•Daemon Prince
MoN, Wings, Warptime
ELITES-
•(5) Terminators
2 chainfists, 1 powerfist, 5x Combi-Melta
TROOPS-
�•(7) Plague marines
2 meltaguns, champion with powerfist
Rhino with Extra Armour
•(8) Khorne Berserkers
Champion with Powerfist
Rhino with Extra Armour
HEAVY SUPPORT-
•Land Raider - 240
Daemonic Possession
•Defiler - 150
4x DCCW
•Defiler - 150
4x DCCW
So, at a first glance, that looks really... average, as a list.
But In today's game, I faced a TH/SS Termies in a Raider, typical power-gaming Marines idea.
I Lost 6 - 5 on annihilation considering:
- In 5 turns on a Defiler shooting It's Battlecannon at a squad of 5 scouts in cover, 1 scout died.
- I moved the raider, and dispatched the Termies to assault a Land Raider, only to find they were 7" away.. meaning they were sat there, 7" from 5 TH/SS Termies and a LR. So i lost those faster than you'd ever imagine.
- The Berserkers did nothing, they got caught up with those TH/SS Termies, before they could assault a Razorback but 5" away.
- I forgot to fire the Raiders LCs one turn, when i had a Razorback in LoS
So.. Considering i didn't even use; A Defiler, The Termies, Beserkers and I forgot to shoot and odds are blow up a Razorback..
I think the list did alright. :laugh:
What do you think!? I'm going to try some more with it.. I'm feeling that the 'Zerkers didn't really work, again a TEQ heavy Army- But I think in a different scenario, The termies would become useful.. And Hopefully i wont shoot 5 battlecannons, and Watch 25 cover saves in a row be passed.
