Default Killing Baneblades

Here's the score. A few of my friends have went superheavy crazy with the release of the Baneblade. They each plan on 2, perhaps up to 4 of the behemoths apiece. My question is how do I take them out? What is the most effective Chaos unit for killing superheavies?

if your going to kill them in close combat make sure not too many of your own units are near, cause when those bad boys go they like to take their friends and enemies with them...

I like steve`s ide the most

Raptors aren`t expensive and you can sneak them behind the tank to do serious damage

Just make use they don`t get shot down before they reach their destination!

Exactamundo! Yup, I definetely have a role for that Raptor squad. The role is kill the Baneblade or die trying! Now I just gotta build 3 or 4 more squads. Man, I'm kinda hating Apoc right now. At this rate I'm never gonna get my army done!

Back on subject, how effective would Oblits be against Baneblades? Assuming I could get them behind the tanks, would Lascannons or Multi-meltas be the best choice?

Indeed thay are deadly. Add some combi-meltas and they're even deadlier!

I think you overestimate the baneblades destructive powers when destroyed.

A chaplain and marine with jumppacks assaulted mine and they came out of it perfectly.

ok... so from all that i have heard when it goes on a 3+ it makes a D6" blast.

that is 2/3 of the time.

so 1/3 of the time they survive.

to me it is better safe than sorry especially with odds like tht.

I could be wrong though, it has been known to happen.
