Yeah there are some really vulnerab...Cheers guys. <br /><br />Yeah there are some really vulnerable coteaz lists for sure - but again it comes down to whether you think its worth it (list wise), but for sure, if he seizes - its not the end of the world in most circumstances/missions - henchmen heavy will have a hard time getting you off objectives, and rhinos/chimera's are quite vulnerable to CML fire. <br /><br />The double raider list ... mmm ;D Getting those 2 boys out of the way as well is big VP's. <br /><br />Like I say its a great tool in that box, and will make people thing twice about what they want to do. <br /><br />Got an interesting game in tonight vs quite a good wolves list, I was really hoping to get pitched and get 1st, but alas, dawn of war and kill points, and 2nd lol. (Actually nice to get a really competitive list to play against outside of Andy at our store, the dude came 2nd at 2500 tourney last weekend - 2xRune 3xGH 2xLF 1xScout 4xTWC and smattering of mech and wolf guard like SW's do!) <br /><br />I am really really enjoying DW again, this series has really made me think a lot more as well with the army. Sisters and GK's are just going to be "relief", but I don't see myself dropping DW as my main army for a little while. Though I do need a back up as Andy is already sick and tired of playing against Terminators! :DBullyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18376322430128578637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1742113396089797587.post-41589507762594292612011-06-30T20:12:35.664+01:002011-06-30T20:12:35.664+01:00Another great read dude and we are really beginnin...Another great read dude and we are really beginning to see the in's and out's of DW for those that haven't played them before..and for those that have but not since the FAQ. <br />For me personally, I used to play with 2 Land Raiders and a Chaplain, with a combat oriented apothecary, banner, Belial squad...and it was wicked fun...but not that competitive, post-FAQ this is a great army and I'm really happy you are pushing them as far as you can take them..<br /><br />On the Coteaz thing...they are psychologically damaging to your want to Alpha Strke and yet of all the GK builds, they are actually the most vulnerable...look around on the web..Killswitch's post from a few days ago and Lee Brown's army for Brighton as just 2 examples (highly relevant to your next tournament ;) ), both of which feature Coteaz and a sizeable vehicle count, in addition neither feature Servo Skulls..the alpha is actually perfect against them.<br />Look again at Brighton, there is a dual Raider list with termies inside. Fuck the termies, the Libbie in the list has no skulls...hit both of them up and screw it, if he seizes, he seizes...if not you are in a unique position (along Vet IG) to punish and cripple movement and offensive capability early.. <br /><br />Just thoughts. <br />Look forward to more.Venerable Brothernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1742113396089797587.post-55024666515873757622011-06-30T16:14:47.383+01:002011-06-30T16:14:47.383+01:00I always have a hard time explaining why you shoul...I always have a hard time explaining why you shouldn't normally use this alpha-strike approach with DW. This article is full of goodies and lays out the pros and cons very clearly. Awesome job!RayJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03238655993945940049noreply@blogger.com
