I think I could have saved them if I put them in cover, but they were out of line of sight as I had a real fear of my opponent seizing (he got +1 to seize plus a re-roll from Corteaz). <br />Overall, they performed well, but I'm not sure they made a huge difference overall. A drop pod sternguard unit (what I replaced them with) may have been more effective considering my opponents. I took them to try and eliminated vehicles and superheavies, but ended up not facing a lot of vehicles and no superheavies at all. I like the models and the unit, but the small range is troublesome (though with the new marine codex likely to get FA drop pod, they could be even better now!).Mike (Didcot Wargames Club)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04136576868354842829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2668255476316917252.post-25828751650172788932015-06-08T16:19:43.521+01:002015-06-08T16:19:43.521+01:00These guys look great, did they perform well on Sa...These guys look great, did they perform well on Saturday?<br /><br />I personally prefer the lascannon and missile launcher loadout for them myself, a lot of people expect centurions to be toting grav so when they sit in a ruin at the back of the board with range to almost everything they're not quite sure what to do about them. <br /><br />Of course I do take imperial fists chapter tactics with my marine list though, so the tank hunter re-rolls are extremely helpful!Triple Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18002702481127525157noreply@blogger.com
