You'll get around 30 hits on a unit, and knocking 15 T3 models out is the equivalent of firing about 40 Thunderers at long range. That's some serious firepower!Charliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05494958315546165602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2355959932852753291.post-64407263941608997292012-12-30T12:46:08.144+00:002012-12-30T12:46:08.144+00:00Sounds useful.

Might have to look into getting mine out of the box this year, I'd like to expand the dwarfs and I have a lot of extra stuff lying about. <br /><br />OK, thanks for the advice. I'll try to remember that for mine. :)Kuffehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15362276686961154685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2355959932852753291.post-8816978937181784312012-12-30T12:42:28.018+00:002012-12-30T12:42:28.018+00:00I will mainly be using it for war machine, fast ca...I will mainly be using it for war machine, fast cavalry and other anti-dwarf annoyances removal. It is nasty against small flanking units, detachments and the like. Yes it is a sod to assemble. Pin the rotors and i used magnets to hold them on to the copter for easy transport (and spinniness).Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109377258517790966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2355959932852753291.post-70770070893749541772012-12-30T12:38:58.472+00:002012-12-30T12:38:58.472+00:00That's a fair point.

It doesn't make any sense why GW made it so it's the only thing in the game that still has partials. <br /><br />House ruling that I can see making it a bit more viable, but it's still only S3 (-1SV?). <br /><br />Oh, did you find it hard to assemble? I have one of these in the box still, but have heard that the rotors are a real pain in the arse to assemble to the main frame.Kuffehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15362276686961154685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2355959932852753291.post-88038880257803864262012-12-30T11:12:01.392+00:002012-12-30T11:12:01.392+00:00Only in tournaments, which I have precisely no int...Only in tournaments, which I have precisely no interest in. Instead we use what I like to call the "common sense" approach and say that the most recent ruling on a mechanism applies. Otherwise some army books remain crippled for years.Jeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13109377258517790966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2355959932852753291.post-68095058323243452872012-12-30T00:54:18.551+00:002012-12-30T00:54:18.551+00:00Nice work!

I think the gyro and engineer could perhaps do with a bit more colour here and there, the gyro especially.<br /><br />I do wonder why you find the gyro so good. Most don't mainly due to the fact it no longer can mark block that well, and it's template is perhaps one of the few still with partials (army book states it has partials, and army book trumps rule book).<br />Kuffehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15362276686961154685noreply@blogger.com
