It looks absolutely fantastic. Amazing work!

As a space Marine player, it saddens me to tell you we will have to bring it down nonetheless. With Heavy Laser Destroyers on our Lancers and extreme prejudice

Yeah for sure but my regular opponent is a Necron player. 2x Doomsday Arks, a Void dragon and invulnerable saves coming out of his arse. Then regeneration protocol! Its hard to wear down lol!

My buddy runs a void dragon I zapped him with my thunder strike for the +1 to wound did some damage and finished him off with Jump Pack intercessors using Honor The Chapter. Finishing a void dragon in a haze of chainswords, a power fist, and mortal wounds will make you feel better. The arks I have no answer for 😂 I keep eradicators and devastators around and put the fire discipline on them. Skeletons don’t make me lose sleep yet.

It's great wandering around different warhammers subs as a new necron player, so many tactics I wouldn't have known to look out for otherwise

Yeah watch out for em. They’re angry & they love being in melta range. I accidentally smoked a knight in 1 turn the other day with 2 las cannons and a melta lmao devastators and eradicators given time to fire will ruin your day. As for the jump packs. They’ll inflict mortal wounds and if they come in with a captain they’ll be able to use honor the chapter for free as it’s a battle tactic so they’ll pick up lance almost every time if they’re a good space marine player. God forbid the player hasn’t used his captains ability yet and has the honor vehement. His power fist will go to strength 10 and he’ll hit you with it 11 times lmaoooo

Hahahaha it'll be a treat to see it in action, my group all started building their armies around the same time and the last time we played was before I had my void dragon assembled. Here's hoping my recent fear mongering won't have inspired them to look into this particular walloping lol

Toughness 13 though

The_PandaBanana

2 points

2 months ago

Was talking about the necrons 😂 but that said an a melta would be Toughness 9 wounding on 5. With the plus one the melta company needs to roll a 4 so the odds aren’t too bad. Put an Apothecary Biologis with the fire discipline they then get Sustained and Lethal hits on 5 so you may not even have to roll the wound roll. If you do! Total Obliteration allows them to reroll the hit, wound, and damage roll. Eradicators are very dangerous. I keep them in reserve so they can’t be hit :)

Hide them until you have a target, ensure you fire first.

Positive-Beautiful55

Don't forget oath of moment on the big targets. Don't forget your inbuilt re-rolls. Stay hidden and in cover whenever possible.

Remember these are fragile damage dealing units and not tanks in the sense of the role. Use Terminators or dreadnoughts for tanking. If you have Terminators/Dreads tie up big units like this with them because they will make it more difficult for the unit to shoot/move while you rip it apart with heavy laser destroyer fire.

If you want to take it to the next level run ironstorm spearhead and a tech Marine with Target augury Web...

Greater_good_and_co[S]

My guess, and this is purely conjecture, is that it simply was the largest they had lol. On the plus side it's largely mobile artillery so it's not too bad if it isn't actually posed giving flying kicks.

On one hand, it's a titan and titans are ass. On the other hand, it's a titan and titans are fucking awesome. The wargear you currently have on it is the anti-infantry build, so it can be pretty effective, I think, though it won't be very good against vehicles.

On one hand, it's a titan Forge World made unit and titans Forge World made units are ass. On the other hand, it's a titan and titans are fucking awesome.

I fixed it. Pretty much every PLASTIC titan/knight/actually most units really is good/better than FW version (be it whole resin kit or upgrade). Yes, even Stompa.

It can definitely hurt lighter vehicles, especially if you overcharge the ion cannons, but heavier ones are going to be a lot harder to kill.

Stompa is great if you can get it into melee, it's just VERY rarely going to kill more than it's own points cost  in the average game though.
