Shame you lost, but it wasn't by all that much I'd say.<br /><br />Regarding your list - I've read a few batreps over the last months where a Demolisher was played, and it seems like it NEVER does anything useful, much less earning its point back. The scatter just kills its effectiveness, so maybe you could swap that one out?Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08199583732490727488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278252476801553420.post-40317832206677986352015-05-15T20:16:03.881+01:002015-05-15T20:16:03.881+01:00Unfortunately the renegades and heretics list does...Unfortunately the renegades and heretics list doesn't allow you to use vendettas. I don't just want to be a guard army which is painted chaotic, i want it to be a proper chaos force so i am rather limited in flyers.Malduranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09089307179275243701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278252476801553420.post-22919651727012910192015-05-15T20:13:52.220+01:002015-05-15T20:13:52.220+01:00I would love to add in some Exterminators but that...I would love to add in some Exterminators but that is a long way off, as right now i don't have the money to buy more warhammer for quite some time. I will just have to use what i have in storage or built. <br /><br />But i do know what you mean about the basic battle cannon, it really doesn't do much.Malduranhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09089307179275243701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278252476801553420.post-27124153087343386582015-05-15T14:59:26.974+01:002015-05-15T14:59:26.974+01:00Wow, it's like your Tanks don't like you! ...Wow, it's like your Tanks don't like you! I admit, I've rarely been impressed by the basic battle tank and this game kinda confirmed that. Consider the Exterminator. That autocannon gives it a lot of shots that would have devastated his low armor walkers. AV13-14 is rarer, and you've got the demolisher and meltaguns for that.This Is A Helmethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13332470309760438304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1278252476801553420.post-44914339117375590492015-05-15T12:43:33.489+01:002015-05-15T12:43:33.489+01:00Quite a brutal game!

I laughed a little at this one "Again able to fire its demolisher cannon, it targets the gorkanaught but the shot scatters and kills a veteran with melta gun and stuns the valkyrie". My vindicator traditionally does far more damage to my own units then the enemies :).<br /><br />Dread mob is a hard list to handle. It's deceiving. Most of the damage it does comes from close combat, as the shooting is pretty meh. So if you can keep it at a distance, and whittle it down, you'll have a chance....but it's way faster then the standard dreads, due to the reroll on one charge dice, and the ability to waaagh. That combined with the D3 hammer hits per dread means you gotta stay WAY back. Using the zombies to brunt the charge was probably the smartest move.<br /><br />Have you thought about swapping valk for the vendetta? The tri las would really help your anti tank. (then of course dread mob lists are pretty rare these days since they are relatively mediocre)greggleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15528518337222880432noreply@blogger.com
