Thinking about changing my suits to death rains for more points for seeker storm.<br /><br />If I get rid of the markerlight on the stealth team, change the 2 crisis units to Death rains, I can add 7 more seeker missiles. <br /><br />Then I would be at 12 markerlights but 13 seeker missiles. Which is good for 2 alpha strikes. I would want to use the missiles as early as possible, hopefully i get enough ML hits to use them all up in 2 turns.<br /><br />I will post a practice game on Friday to see how this turns out.Kroxitauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05758855360104254725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7857076307834812324.post-31328803722751631062010-04-06T08:20:44.978-05:002010-04-06T08:20:44.978-05:00OK, so it sounds like you already have a lot of ma...OK, so it sounds like you already have a lot of markerlights in the list which makes the Skyray a lot better. On the first turn, you want to mark up a unit of marines and blow it to smitherines with all 6 seeker missiles. Then your skyray will move about marking targets for the rest of your army and will largely be ignored due it lack of missiles. <br /><br />On the other hand, if you already have 13 markerlights in your list do you really need the skyray? <br /><br />My personal rules is to make sure I have at least 1 railgun per 500 points. So at 1750 I run with 4 railguns. 3 XV88s and 1 railhead. I only run with about 6 pathfinders so having the skyray is a big deal.Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11680110160882762433noreply@blogger.com
