derek Posted July 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 Could switch to a cad and have obsec for my army that would help with objectives I know this list lacks alot of anti armour and I have a feeling a knight is gonna be in the list but I don't know if it can be a fw knight or it has to be the normal knights like the paladin and errant. Any ideas and suggestions to deal with this would help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

indytims Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 I would pitch-in, but I know -zero- about these two armies Derek, sorry. :( Definitely not enough to offer any sort of advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derek Posted July 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 It's all good mainly the formation is what I'm trying to understand I know if I try and spam flyers it'll fail miserably if I try and get close I'll fail too so it's really gonna be luck maybe not using venoms cause it's mainly av I'm gonna deal with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRider Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 Normally, I'd say that the lack of ObSec is a big downside to the Real Space Raiders, but against a War Convocation, that's not such a big deal. The Dunecrawler is excellent AA, so be really careful with that Razorwing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AgentP Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 The destroyers should be your first target. They put out the most damage of anything in the list. They only have armor 4, so fold easily. Most likely your second target should be the infiltrators. You do not want want to get in into hand to hand with them. Shoot them. Do you know what version of the war convocation your opponent will be running? Kastelens? Drop pods? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 24, 2015 Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 Nobody has any ideas??? Took me a while to figure out what you were asking. Seems rather ambiguous, as you aren't specifying an enemy, just a faction (or more). You should get a sample opposition list for feedback purposes. I will note that skitarii have those dune crawlers which notably have interceptor skyfire weapons which ignore cover. Going to want flickerfields on everything, if you don't already have them, as skyfire shoots at full BS against flyers and skimmers. I'm strongly doubting your solo flyer will get to shoot as is. A second flyer isn't a horrible idea. Not a fan of the talos unit. It's just too many points that can only only engage a single target per turn. Not a replacement for a super heavy. Also lacks an invulnerable save, which really hurts the unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derek Posted July 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2015 Flicker fields are not available to anything besides venoms. I don't believe there's any pods in the list. The talos unit being expensive isnt an issue 600 points for bonus points for every non vehicle unit I kill seems worth it and I'm not sure how many of those grav cannons models he's bringing but I plan ob focusing them down with discentagrator cannons. I don't think the razorwing will do much for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
