Looks like a fun time was had all around. Wish I could have been there. |

Just out I of interest - and I realize this wasn't your game so you weren't in control - how much are you including in your drop, and what is your goal with dropped units? In this case, it looks like only the devastators are being dropped so only one death wind. When I have dropped in the past, I ha... |

AW, JEEZ!!
After all this time, I've been doing it wrong! I though RG scouts got transports like everybody else so I could include them in drop pods.....AND THEY DON'T!
Now I'll definitely have to put them in aircraft to keep them mobile. |

All good thoughts.
I like the idea of playing a SM army that has nothing on the board during initial deployment, and have written up a list that includes 5 drop pods-worth of tacticals, devastators and scouts....but I don't know if maybe that's putting too much into the drop. |

Hello everyone! After reading a few posts from other members here and doing some pondering on my own, I've decided that I'm going to start drop podding a lot more often, esp. with my Raven Guard. I understand the rules for deploying via drop pods fine, but what are the tactics people follow when pos... |

OK then, can one of your direct me to an official description of "Self-Planetfall?"
I'm having difficulty finding an official explanation. |

Hey there, I will have to try a list like this. Over the weekend I played a tournament with my RG that is scout-heavy. Against a less-experienced player I was able to bog him down with lots of ZoC, but against armies that WANT me to get close to them, they were able to eat me up. Have you played man... |

EXPECT....to see me do an all-out air assault with RG on turn one......just not against you, Dave. It may not be the smart thing to do, but in my mind at least for one game, it will sure as hell be the fun thing to do! ......playing "Ride of the Valkyries" all during turn one. Dum-Dum-da-d... |

I'm sorry, but I do not interpret it that way. First of all, terminators do not come in units of two and it makes no sense to only be able to pick up a unit when it is down to 50%. Second, the listing for Thunderhawks quite clearly states that terminators take up two slots due to their bulk. The Sto... |

The Storm Eagle listing states it can transport four infantry without Jump Packs or Mounted. Does this mean they can transport Terminators? |

Incidentally, is there any way to change the link at the top of this thread to point to the most recent list? |

mod: moved dev post to actual dev thread. I've been away from this board for a number of months and didn't see any of the battle reports involving RG until tonight. I am highly impressed with Dave's record with RG. I have played a fair number of games with them, and my force organization tends to i... |

I would be unhappy if RG terminators lost their drop pod option. |

I am ABSOLUTELY CONVINCED I am playing this rule correctly, even though it means I think I am taking advantage of the way the rule is written: The rule on snipers (2.1.14) states the sniper unit rolls to hit seperately from other units and if it hits, the attacker may choose which enemy unit is hit.... |

Yes, RG vs Titans doesn't work too well in engagements....but if you are able to get units with MW into positions where they can crossfire Titans....that's works ok. |
