Commisar General Pereira · 01-11-2007

I'm redoing my cadians and was wodering if I shoud replace basklisks for vanquishers and a Destroyer tank hunter?Or is no guard Army good with out their Basklisks?Also are the quad stubbers on the Forge world website taken as heavy support Or like all other heavy weapons, in squads?Just wondering.

i'm not too sure about alot of the forgeworld stuff, but it honestly never hurts to try out some new tactics/play styles every now and then!

vanquishers only difference is only the longer range, which really only comes into play when you're playing on an 8'x4' or larger table! (they're fun for catching an opponent off guard!)
if the destroyer uses regular BS3, then i'd avoid it... an expensive tank with only 1 shot that only hits 50% of the time isn't really that great. a conquerer i know at least gets sponsons to make up for the one-shot cannon!

cheers!

i'm not sure, but i think the Destroyer might have BS4 (BS3+1 for having a targeting system) - afterall it is basically a massive sniper rifle on a tank
