I think you should consider leaving him in the barge, as you only need line of sight and the barge is open-topped so you can still sweep at combat speed for the 3+ hits, MitM a vehicle, and Tachyon arrow (and of course fire off your Tesla cannon for fun). I'd recommend doing this for the purpose of not having to re-embark next turn (you're assaulting into this so this could be tricky and maybe lose your sweep attacks) and for the extra defense Anrakyr gets from his A13 barge. Depending on how much your enemy has to fire back after you nuke 3/4 of their tanks, I'd consider doing the 3 hit combo first and then next turn following it up with the 4 piece combo. My only reservation is the loss of cruising speed but with good positioning you should only be gaining a super buffed chance of killing with your sweeps (3+ vs 4+ on 3 different attacks) and a Tachyon bolt for smashing in another tank.thatotherconservativehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17324722067917074588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560399245089403251.post-21030403187234284062012-01-08T06:15:11.903-08:002012-01-08T06:15:11.903-08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560399245089403251.post-14516472694363133322012-01-06T08:59:53.027-08:002012-01-06T08:59:53.027-08:00oh and your mom too....oh and your mom too....Neil Gilstraphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07650727851487045304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560399245089403251.post-57428043367394696352012-01-06T08:58:42.383-08:002012-01-06T08:58:42.383-08:00Well, that explains a lot about my life!Well, that explains a lot about my life!Neil Gilstraphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07650727851487045304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560399245089403251.post-53406646825025822872012-01-06T08:27:04.581-08:002012-01-06T08:27:04.581-08:00The larger issue, Neil, is that your face is a thr...The larger issue, Neil, is that your face is a threat bubble.Mike Brandt; mvbrandt@gmailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00818846784767602047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560399245089403251.post-40013359551714586392012-01-06T06:58:06.707-08:002012-01-06T06:58:06.707-08:00I think, at the end of the day, my list will proba...I think, at the end of the day, my list will probably have 1 squad of 10 scarabs, and I may take 3 spyders. That will be about it. What compels me to take Scarabs, aside from killing things like Land Raiders is that Scarabs will generate a threat bubble for tanks. The thing is, you can bubble wrap to prevent me from violently charging with my scarabs, but what if I don't charge? What if I just "lurk" around mid-field? What happens when you need to move? Are you going to stay out of your tanks the whole time to bubble wrap when I have a lot of anti-infantry fire? Are you going to try to move along with the bubble wrap? <br /><br />I'll talk about that more in another article, but I can see them as presenting a compelling threat bubble.Neil Gilstraphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07650727851487045304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7560399245089403251.post-85073867165044788492012-01-06T06:47:58.821-08:002012-01-06T06:47:58.821-08:00One more thought, I don't think a 'serious...One more thought, I don't think a 'serious' list can be put together until the codex is FAQ'd.

The scenario you described is EXACTLY what's happened in my meta, and I've only ran the scarab farm 3 times thus far, I guess word travels fast. On that note, you don't need a whole lot of scarabs to ruin AV 14. In those three games I racked up 3 LR and 2 Monoliths. But against a dedicated CC unit, and my meta is still in love with the hammer, you hemorrhage bases, not wounds.<br />3)My meta has allowed the stacking of tremor staffs ( I know) and Writhing Worldscape, but it hasn't had as much of an impact as I had hoped, pretty lack luster really.<br />4) I am impressed with the tesla carbines, and I really wanted to not like them.<br />5) Wraiths are pretty great, so are spiders.<br />6) A 20 man squad of warriors with a phearon is pretty dang good<br />7) My meta allowed me to put JUST the royal court into a ghost ark<br />8) I really want to take a silly tooled up lord royal court against a hammer and see how that turns out.Intrizichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07885078490104380934noreply@blogger.com
