Certainly the two FW Reavers need to be tested first, since they have figs already.


I worked out points for those this morning incidentally while putting together my Death Korps list.

570 for the triple-Rocket Reaver.

655 for the Gatling/Volcano/Rocket Reaver.

and:

260 points for the Inferno/Turbolaser Warhound (Wolf Class).

I think the "triple-Rocket Reaver" should have the Fire control Head (possibly as an upgrade) to make it more interesting...but maybe that would make it less interesting, and too tempting!

Sure, as an upgrade it'd be 200 points according to my chart. :)

I am a marine player, it is very apealing to me. I have the FW model and I will give it a go at 770 and the see results. As far as the other FW Reaver goes, I have been using it all year with the Vulcano on it and it is fine at the points cost,  not to powerfull at all.

That's not surprising to me, as the cost of the weapons & hull came out within 5 points of a Standard Configuration Reaver. :)

We think it is, a tubolaser has two barrels not one, so we made it a vulcano cannon as it looks more like it than a tbl.

I believe FW call it a volcano cannon on their website.  So I assume it is an error in the book

It's an error in the book... the FW website calls it a Volcano cannon, and that's what it looks like to me.

I?ve picked through the various Titan Configurations suggested so far (along with a few of my own ideas), and chosen a collection I would actually like to use sometime. ?I arrived at a points cost mostly by thinking about what its worth to me (and I expect those costs to just be a starting point). ?There are more than just 5 types for each class, so I expect some discussion will be nessessary to eliminate the less desirable configs. ?
I don?t want to step on anyone?s toes here?these are just a pool of the better configurations IMHO, and is not meant to be complete or final (so make suggestions as to how to improve the list).
