I'll have to build myself some Hydra turrets, I guess, although I understand they've been nerfed now.<br /><br />Thanks for the recommendation on bartertown. I'll check into it.Sixgun45LChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01978479021149768911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7580524109237803146.post-78886137012860909692012-07-28T13:53:15.035-07:002012-07-28T13:53:15.035-07:00I don't get this comment system so I do not kn...I don't get this comment system so I do not know if you'll get a notification. <br /><br />To combat aircraft you pretty much need aircraft. Any army can now buy fortifications which can include the flak quad gun and the Icarus lascannon. Other than that you need aircraft to kill aircraft. It is a little silly. I am sure that as 6th goes on, we'll see both more aircraft and anti-aircraft units.<br /><br />There is some shady reasoning that all Space Marine missile launchers now have skyfire based on nothing substantial. I dont't fly like that (pun intended).<br /><br />Really the way you want to deal with aircraft is to get a Valkyrie or Vendetta. They are a steal for the points cost and are going to dominate the skies. Fill them full of Vets and make them your special forces. <br /><br />As for the Necrons you are looking to get rid of, Bartertown is the place. You can sell them or (better yet) trade them for something you do want. You could get more Orks or IG. Maybe some aircraft. <br /><br />http://www.bartertown.com/trading/viewforum.php?f=8&sid=acc23c35e8d6a79e828a95b1c60902a9Vurumaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03100357065577809555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7580524109237803146.post-48404371212574418312012-07-28T07:31:53.512-07:002012-07-28T07:31:53.512-07:00Huh. Bummer. I'd much rather play an army that...Huh. Bummer. I'd much rather play an army that is in some way fluffy, even if it loses most of the time. I'd heard that aviation was king now but I haven't played against any and don't intend to buy any. If I have to, I'll buy some anti-air. I hear missile launchers are good but again, no experience and I still don't have the damned rule book.<br /><br />I'll let him know about his Necrons. Do you know anybody who might be interested at all or should I hit up CraigsList or something? I've never sold an army before.Sixgun45LChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01978479021149768911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7580524109237803146.post-66455693957516401382012-07-27T13:14:35.363-07:002012-07-27T13:14:35.363-07:00He had some Griffin or Medusa mortars. I can't...He had some Griffin or Medusa mortars. I can't remember what they are called but they crippled the Monolith and were erasing a unit each turn. They are paper tigers because when I shot them, they blew up good. <br /><br />Those Valkyres/Vendettas are not AirCav. They are AirI-Win-The-Game. Unless you get rear armor, they are damn hard to kill. Even Las Cannons only pen them on 4+ and you only hit on 6's. The Hydra flak tank hits easy but can only glance it on 6's. It seems like they are invunerable but can rain down Las Cannons on you with impunity. <br /><br />After thinking on his list a bit, it was not built with any fluff in mind. He did have 4 Troops but they were bare bones and just there for grabbing objectives. the real hammer of his army were Eldrad joined to the Harlequins and the Avatar. Why would Eldrad be hanging out with Harlequins? His allies were nto taken for any fluffy reasons but to fill tatical gaps in his army. <br /><br />As for your son's Necrons, I would love to buy them but there is an Embargo on. I'm trying to save money to move and paying off bills.Vurumaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03100357065577809555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7580524109237803146.post-74593497119779088012012-07-27T08:56:47.594-07:002012-07-27T08:56:47.594-07:00What up, brutha?!

Did he have any other IG stuff or basically just some air cav?<br /><br />Also, my kid thinks he wants to sell his Necrons. Are you interested at all? I know he has two monoliths and a grip of warriors but I'm not sure what else.Sixgun45LChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01978479021149768911noreply@blogger.com
