The flyrant is great at popping chimeras & rhinos at range. Add in the 12 S5 shots from each Trygon Prime and I think you have a big part of the answer to countering mech. These guys can also mow down infantry as well. <br /><br />The +1 for reserves is also huge as this army is designed to completely outflank, infiltrate and deepstrike onto the table. If done right your opponent should only be able to get in one full round of shooting tops. I've playtested the list versus mech IG & mech eldar with great results so far.<br /><br />I love the Alpha Warrior and he is a steal for the points. With a lot of wounds, T5 and regen he is suprisingly resilient. So for now I'll keep him.<br /><br />The Yrmygals are just plain nasty and they have been the key to beating down mech IG. They are very good at the multicharge and present a lot of psychological pressure on mech IG players.<br /><br />Like I said the army has also done very well versus mech eldar since I can effectively match their speed by spreading out. These are the two armies I see as presently the biggest threat... Although the latest round of Blood Angel rumors makes it sound like they will be a prime threat as well.<br /><br />GTerminus Esthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14216648052452417162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1971967977259463444.post-39977071179784345932010-03-05T23:48:43.165-05:002010-03-05T23:48:43.165-05:00I really like this army - it's very similar to...I really like this army - it's very similar to what I was playing around with if I was going to do a bug army (I'm not btw). If they don't kill the big bugs - they will eat 'em up. If they take the time to kill the big bugs - the stealers get em.<br /><br />As a suggestion - I think you can ditch the Flyrant and replace with a Broodlord or three in the Stealer squads. He's a bad dude - and basically lets you put up to 6 IC level models in the army. You could even drop the warriors and just let the prime soak up some firepower and use the points on Stealers.....they and the 'Gons are the keys to victory I think with this type list.Aldonishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14935952755541387230noreply@blogger.com
