This would be the defining factor in picking one over the other. Not sure if there is army specific ones for the blood angles and the Grey Knights or if there is common ground between the two of them. I know I am struggling to pick which one to use in my Grey Knight army.HOTpandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03480850003869609864noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1182276665777142466.post-22794989383904586162011-06-14T11:49:24.022-07:002011-06-14T11:49:24.022-07:00HOTpanda, you are absolutely right.

I do think that both of these vehicles are quite effective, and that the level of effectiveness really depends on the strategy being used by the controlling player. Thanks for your thoughts on that.RollTheDice22https://www.blogger.com/profile/00556961515206636445noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1182276665777142466.post-62370576396386453522011-06-13T23:28:33.310-07:002011-06-13T23:28:33.310-07:00One of the biggest pros to the StormRaven is that ...One of the biggest pros to the StormRaven is that it is immune to melta based weapons which are the most effective way at popping a Land Raider. This results in Lascannons being the number one platform for opening up the Stormraven. WIth the Lascannons comes great range thus a higher chance at getting destroyed before your vehicle is in position. Mean while the Landraider is shrugging off the majority of Lacannon shots at that same range. As the Landraider rolls in closer it increases it chances of getting wrecked as it enter melta weapon ranges.<br /><br />To me this is the biggest reason for weighing the two vehicles against each other. Essentially I think your odds of delivering your package to the enemy are the same. I might be wrong but like hell am I going to math hammer that one out. In the end you essentially are just picking both your opponents and your own poison.HOTpandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03480850003869609864noreply@blogger.com
