Ravager Titan

At the moment the Ravager is a rarely taken unit - certainly a lot less popular than the Reaver. At the moment the proposal is to reduce it to 625pts. IMO this does very little to help the unit become a viable choice as the list will still need to be tailored around the battle titan and it sinply isn't hard hitting enough with its current weaponry.

Mt proposal is that D3 is added to its TK weapon (in place of the points drop). With that added I would consider taking it as, with the combination of AT/MW weaponry, you now have a Warhound killer - which makes it a viable choice.

Personally, having used a Ravager quite extensively I think it's ok-ish as it stands.
Neither change massively changes it (either 25 more points to spend elsewhere or better shooting).

I'd favour the TK(D3) over the points drop, as this gives it a niche that isn't filled elsewhere in the list (warhound killer, as you say).

I'd prefer testing the TK(d3) over the points drop  :agree: .

That does sound like a good option to me; definitely worth a try.

Full agree. Drop points after some playtesting, if it gets taken someone might get creative and find uses for the added support capabilities.

With the previous stats it was worthless though...

D3 makes sense to me, poor thing.

The Death Storm is already a sawn-off/short-ranged Gatling Blaster. So it makes sence that the Doom Burner is a sawn-off/short ranged Volcano Cannon :D

Yup, sounds good and makes it seem more like a corrupted imperial weapon.
