|  Suggestions on Chaos Armor Right, so for my next addition to my chaos army, after a jump pack lord, I was thinking of adding some more vehicles. Soo...which ones do I get? I don't feel like bikes, and I already have a defiler and want to try something new. So right now its between a 3 vindicator pack, or a land raider. So which one should I get? Refer to my 1st army thread for a general idea of what I already have in my army.

Blog Entries: 3     | The linebreaker (if you are going for an apoc army) is the sweetest deal ever. However, if you plan mainly on 40k, then i'd advise just one vindi, as they will make more sense.

| I would get a pred... Why? Well, its much more flexible than the vidicator, and I don't like the LandRaider. The landraider, is, to me, to points heavy, and two twin-linked lascannons is really a bit to much of overkill (unless you are using Apoc I suppose...) The Vindicator... I just don't like, that's just me though. The pred, on the other hand is an amazing tank! With either Destructor or Annihilator builds, you can either kill infantry or bust up tanks and MCs... To me, its just the best tank SM has.

|  a predator with autocannon turret & heavy bolter sponsons is dirt cheap pts-wise and will absolutely murder most infantry! even space marines will feel it as you still throwing 8 shots/turn at a squad... plus, you can keep on the move and still fire everything to full effect! the land raider is a bit much in anything 1500pts or below. it's simply too much of a 'all your eggs in one basket' approch IMHO. now, that's not say you can't build an army around the tactic of say, a land raider born assault... but you'd need to re-design your list specifically with that goal in mind! (ie: have dedicated units which will eliminate any possible threat to your precious land raider!) cheers!

| ....is there a pred three pack? well I guess even if I buy them seperate, they're...I'll need to check that... Alright, I'll get preds next (refrains from thinking of Predacons) But is doing magnitized weapons hard? I'm having a hard enough time doing simple conversions with my infantry.

for the sponsons however, just stick to the heavy bolters! never take the lascannons. sure it's upto 3 anti-tank weapons, but you can't move and shoot more than one of 'em! a static tank is a dead tank... moving at least means opponent's need a 4+ to hit your tank with say, those nasty melta bombs!  cheers!

Blog Entries: 3 | The turret weapon bit won't be that hard. If I can get a hold of a pred, or the bits to make one +, i'll try my tutorial out on it.
