Deathstrikes are a cheap lucky wheel. 200 point is not that hurting, even at 3000 points. This is the case, where you fail
Let me clarify.

Done that, with the Supreme Commanders re-roll and also on a separate occasion when the re-roll had been used by my Vultures to strip the shields as the first activation. (Warlord I believe then regrouped and raised all its shields back up.)

You can only roll double 1 so many times right, wrong that 1 in 36 comes around far too often for my liking.

Take for example shooting at a IG Super Heavy Tank formation, double 1 again to only wound a Shadowsword twice. And I couldn't roll a critical either.
Whilst I continue to take Deathstrikes and shoot at War Engines my preferred option nowerdays to shoot at Terminators or Land Raiders much more satisfying.
On the plus side I did take them along to a tournament and played against a guy with a Phantom titan. Due to the tournament set up I played him once and then once again in the final round. In both games my Deathstrikes killed off the Phantom before it could do anything
