i agree with farseer in this one EH. he should be able to teleport if he wants to because to be completely honest a necron lord has that ability and would realistically use it if he was going to be ass-raped by an angry chaplain and a pissed off company captain, i dont blame him for teleporting
while i do feel as though the Cairn ship is a bit unfair in its size and magnitude of power and whatnot, as long as it is not abused i dont mind farseer using it, go ahead.
as for the ship hitting the surface, using one ship to kamikaze another is amazing and ingenious and i applaud you for it because right now we are somewhat fucked to say the least when that thing hits the planet. BUT what i dont agree with is the targeting and having it hit the exact area where we are, go ahead and blow the shit out of my ship and have it hit the planet but to be honest (and physics dictates this) when that thing breaks up it is so far away from the small part of the planet we are on realistically speaking only about 10% of it will actually screw the imperial forces in the arse.
i know of a few books that talk about ships falling to the planet and killing large amounts of enemy units blah blah blah but either those ships had to be practically within the atmosphere or they were absolutely massive constructs, both of those situations i am not in. yes we are commencing an orbital bombardment but that does not have to be done with the ship in the planet's atmosphere, and if im wrong and it does then yes we are screwed.
i have no problem with shadow running with his tail between his...erm....yeah, or the kamikaze ship plan, but i just feel like it is a little overpowered that somehow i have five ships and NONE of them were able to pick up this missile of death. if you werent hitting my capitol ship i would brush it off and say whatever but hitting the Dark Wyrm is kind of pushing it. nonethless it is happening and im willing to go with it because if you can do that then i could theoretically teleport my own men back onto my other ships and assault the cairn if i absolutely wanted to seeing as how we are experts at ship to ship combat.
but im not going to do that because we are marines and we fight to the death. EH you do not need to make farseer change his post because my forces are the ones who are going to get nerfed the most. in fact i ask that you allow it to happen and let me come back as my own Iron Warriors Eighth Grand Company so i can level the playing field with these necrons and take them on toe to toe.
EDIT: Let a TRUE warrior of chaos show you fools how it is done
