Yeah. You wouldn't want to have a malfunction during fire on one of those puppies.
I guess that's what prisoners are for;
Comissar w/Voxcaster: "DISARM!"
Prisoner: [Touches the rocket] *BOOOOOM*
Comissar w/Voxcaster: "By the Emperor! When I find You, I will shoot You for treason!" |

| The way GW rules are lately i am sure you can deep strike with the freakin missile launching platform and it will cause ANY model within 6 inches to take a leadership test and if failed it is an automatic win for the opposing team. LOL |

| I've got to get those big rockets - they are too cool (Manticore and Deathstrike Missile Launcher). They might even make me think about IG before the Blood Angels (though I can't afford either at the minute!).

| Hah. I agree! The looks of those launchers (-the rockets, more exactly) are pretty cool, but imo, GW is going a bit overboard. -For the last years too... When I came out of hibernation, and surfed GW to find news about new models, I noticed amongst other things that The Blood Angels Retinue have all wings? WINGS?!Once upon the time the Sergeants was turned into Veterans, then all were veterans all of the sudden, then the veteran squads were turned into bad ass veteran squads, then we got vanguards. What next? Bad-ass-veteran vanguards? Oh, oh. Of course the same with the scouts. All of the sudden is the sergeant running around in a power armour. It is getting difficult to keep up.  I find it puzzling that they make models of rockets so big that the template dwarfs in comparison. If the IG paint them red too, they won't have to worry about any Orks any more. They will flee in panic!  |

| Ohhh... and the Blood Angel LANDRAIDERS deepstriking from the sky? Don't get me started. I officially retired from 40k. I play only with my closest friends, to get a laugh once in a blue moon. Death Squads for me... maybe I start with Battletech or Warmachine... but no 40k for me. _________________ . The Mordheimer - Death Squads' Chief Editor & Ninja Designer.

| yes edward... read the Blood Angels Codex! Is stupid, illogical, abusive, against the fluff and... moronic. _________________ . The Mordheimer - Death Squads' Chief Editor & Ninja Designer.

| I think the principal of the blood angel deep strike land raider is, that there is a spaceship (huge cant remember name) above the planet and the land raider is made of special material that allows it to go through space and not go up in flames (like a drop pod), but yet i feel GW are trying to do to much at the moment and need to let gamers find the faults and for them to just act upon them.

| You're thinking of the Thunderhawk Transporter, which is an Apocalypse unit (a hugely abusive power gamers game - as cool as some of the models are). I love elements of the Blood Angel codex (mostly fluff and the models) - but deepstriking landraiders without having to pay the cost for the transporter is just silly (which for a normal 40k game is of course prohibitive - as it should be!). The new forgeworld land raider kit (the Achilles) is just too cool though! Laney  |
