Part of me thinks 3 x 10 avengers in serpents, 2 wraith knights, 2 ranger squads to block scout moves and 5 wraith guard with d-scythes might be the way I roll in the future. Also would go with iyanden force org to give spirit seer the healy helmit. One wraith knight is cheaper than 2 fire prisms, more durable and has comparable fire power (absent range). Need to buy another wraith knight though...Kaughnorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15551117029142299069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6114916845066391402.post-66359159550493586852013-06-16T11:12:23.062-06:002013-06-16T11:12:23.062-06:00I've read your battle reports and it seems as ...I've read your battle reports and it seems as though the Prisms/Falcon were dead weight. I am personally dropping Fire Prisms in my lists as their damage output is not worth their points for me =(. <br /><br />Regarding your last game, it may have been a loss but it looked more like a win with how much damage you did =). It made me look at the Wraithknight again as I think 1 or 2 will add a nice element to your army. Especially against Tau as Tau seem to focus these days on spamming S5,6,7 which don't scare the big guy so much...Move 12, run and then next turn charge hopefully?<br /><br />Anyway, Reapers are great! Get the Krack missile upgrade, put behind Aeigis with a Spiritseer+Conceal for perpetual 2+ cover and kill things dead. Tau Commander with Tank-hunter/Ignore cover makes Dark Reapers insane, as well. Maybe Reapers, 2 Wraithknights and an Aegis would be a solid Heavy slot allotment?<br /><br />Good luck in upcoming games, seems like Dires in Serpents are here to stay, they have so much potential against so many targets!Yrielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15953842551991627206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6114916845066391402.post-18772266416122760752013-06-15T08:45:59.395-06:002013-06-15T08:45:59.395-06:00twin linked plasma from command squad and raven kn...twin linked plasma from command squad and raven knights. couple of multimelta shots plus assorted plasma guns throughout bike squads. samuel also had his plasma cannon. a lot of plasma was in double tap range. <br /><br />with his 12 inch scout move he was right on my deployment zone edge turn one. skilled rider had him driving through terrain and buildings lol. <br /><br />with tau hammering helldrakes, i think there will be a lot more raven knight armies on the table. its a solid army<br />Kaughnorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15551117029142299069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6114916845066391402.post-68969581522813093162013-06-14T23:09:43.278-06:002013-06-14T23:09:43.278-06:00Man how did he take out your Wave Serpents so quic...Man how did he take out your Wave Serpents so quickly?

Should have taken out his night shroud first, then attack bikes, then raven knights. Next game I think I'm going to drop a squad of avengers and take some dark reapers and a wave serpent. Should up my dakka considerably. Then take some jetbikes to play hide and seek. Really thinking hard on a second wraith knight as well. 1850 list would look something like this:<br /><br />HQ:<br />Farseer - speer (goes with reapers)<br /><br />Troops:<br />2 x 10 Avengers - wave serpent, holo, lasers<br />2 x 3 jet bikes - shuriken cannons<br /><br />Fast:<br />7 warp spiders<br /><br />Heavy:<br />7 Reapers + 1 Exarch - fast shot, night vision, wave serpent, holo, lasers<br />2 wraith knights - Suncannons<br /><br />Total 1850<br />Kaughnorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15551117029142299069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6114916845066391402.post-84511028852534323622013-06-14T12:13:56.239-06:002013-06-14T12:13:56.239-06:00Remember the serpent shield ignores cover, so can ...Remember the serpent shield ignores cover, so can get around boosted cover saves and totally jack up the dark Shroud. The key then is to take out those S7 and S8 shots as quickly as possible.RayJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03238655993945940049noreply@blogger.com
