Heya! Yeah I know I promised kill team but no one will play with me yet. Everyone has been to busy...rage fest. This game was my neighbor last night, not my usual friends.
Yeah the blaster born are really too big of a target right now (neighbor marched his wraith knight over and smashed them), but I am not fond of the carbine due to the not affecting vehicles...poison is great against monster armies...but I have had rotten luck with them. That's why I take the splinter racks. Twin linking the splinter rifles has been the only reliable way to kill things so far. Plus if the ships get shot at all they tend to pop...the Tantalus popped last night with full HP. That's the second time that's happened. I've only played them twice....sigh.
Albeit I have been playing too close and spread too thin (my first army was warriors of chaos). To make the night shields worth it shouldn't I stay at almost maximum range for my vehicle weapons (leaving the duke in the Tantalus so the unit inside benefits from the poison)?
As far as the beast masters go, the were wound absorption to draw fire from my paper ships. It worked too, they got shot up pretty good and my ships lasted a round longer than normal. The biggest thing about the beast master is the 5 wound razor wings. But they certainly aren't necessary. The raven did NOTHING for me so that sucked...got one shooting phase with it at the wraith knight, did one wound, then his flyers came in and popped it. It was bad....
The incubi did pretty good but the one squad literally lost 4 of 5 models in the assault to overwatch....all in all it was a rough game for me...
