Guest Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 Aside from the high tag price on Azrael, he's awesome for super heavy transports. Embarking on a vehicle gives it a 4++. Furthermore, attaching him to the embarked unit gives the models in that unit a 4++. So, when and if the super heavy vehicle explodes and does it's S10 ap2 hit to each passenger, some might survive.... Might have to break out a Storm Lord, or something, just to see if this has any merit. Looks good on paper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadaver2k Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 Looks like its about 900pts so go right ahead man! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikhailLenin Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 That is an indeed a working mechanic Pax but keep in mind that in ITC format events, there is only 1 LoW limit unless Imperial Knights I believe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 4, 2015 Report Share Posted July 4, 2015 That is an indeed a working mechanic Pax but keep in mind that in ITC format events, there is only 1 LoW limit unless Imperial Knights I believe. Good point. Keep wondering if they'll change this at some point. The 0-1 LoW restriction seems rather silly at this point. Perhaps a limit on GC/SH specifically, but limiting the number of logan/draigo/azrael inclusions in the army seems a bit unnecessary. I have been debating Azrael in the Achilles LR. 540pts for those without anything else. That's a super heavy that isn't a super heavy.... Very iffy. Other idea would be a Storm Fang/Raven, which would be neat in that it doesn't jink, but I don't think it would be durable enough even with the 4++. Looks like its about 900pts so go right ahead man! It would be a deathstar, which isn't really anything new for 40k. 900pts in one target isn't exactly uncommon these days, especially with the ITC nerf on ranged D.

Guest Mr. Bigglesworth Posted July 5, 2015 Report Share Posted July 5, 2015 It's not a very deathstary as others because it does little to help in a maelstrom mission. Reason most deathstars are effective is because they are durable, mobile and killie. You can't put in a sh in an itc event, 4++ on a vehicle is mediocre. Storm Ravens can't help with maelstrom all that well, and are not super killie. Yeah a 4++ on a sh is decent, especially when you cross the 8 hp mark. And put a tech marine in that can repair and iron hand for iwnd and that is a beast. Which nonitc allows but nothing cheesy at all. I would gladly face it with a generic tac list. As I could ignore half you points and kill the rest of your army and win by points. I would not say your idea meets deathstardom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
