Im pretty sure storm eagles were made WE so they could transport primarchs. Which are DC warengines. So rule stating that only a warengine can transport another war engine. WRT Vanguard. I like as written ortron. WRT Stern guard I think should be - CC4+ FF 4+ (+1EA in FF) and 15cm AP/AT 5+ at 250 for 4. You could make them MW attacks but that may make people go crazy! |

Sternbuard and Vanguard will likely make it into the list one way or another, and Terminators will loose drop pods possibly becoming 0-1. A sig can only have 5 links in it. I'm really having a hard time seeing this as anything but carping. |

Then I suggest that when using a medium of communication where there's absolutely no way to convey tone (like this forum) that it's probably better to open with "Hey, here's some specific things that I think need addressing" and err on the side of explaining yourself too much, rather than writing a terse message with a vague indication of what you're referring to and a comment with no context. |

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

Any movement on the Vanguard/stern guard playtesting options? |

Nope, still sticking to the time frame I laid out. First four months are for playtests as-is so I can figure out who the playtester base is and then we go from there. |

Hi Dave, Thanks for your reply. Sorry but I'm not really interested in testing the list as is and will concentrate on other lists development for the time being - like the Horus Heresy Raven Guard list. Im still keen to get involved later on down the line though. Just one thing to open up to the floor though. I understand list-wise snd development-wise why the caestus assault rams are included in the raven list, but I don't think thematically the caestus fits. I can't find any fluff where ravens use it and the fluff on the notable users of the assault rams include all the "angry" legions/chapters. I would suggest that they are not that well suited and maybe a storm eagle or similar delivery craft would be more suitable. Cheers Jim |

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 involve many more scout units with sniper upgrade, and assault units rather than tacticals. Purely a choice of play style. I have had about a 50/50 record with them. My biggest concern with RG is the seeming necessity of an orbital bombardment and drop. I'm not always a fan of doing a drop attack, and besides if my opponent always knows I'm going to drop then he can plan accordingly. I prefer coming in via Thawks. Has anyone else had success with RG, without using OB and drop pods to attack? |

I haven't tried an air assault list with the 4 strong tacticals yet. That and straight infantry are something I'd like to test. |

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