Zond Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I love Thunderbirds so Astartes having a Mole is incredibly fun. I'm definitely buying one for fun but does anyone think it could have some competitive uses with anything in the codex? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARK0SIAN Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I think veterans with storm bolters jumping out will be fun, will be a lot of fire as it’ll be in rapid fire range. If you give them a decent mix of cc weapons they can then charge whatever else is around :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 Honestly, the drill is already good on its own for the points. 1d3 Melta shots plus two Stormbolter/Heavy Flamer/Twin Volkite Charger plus 6 S14 AP-4 D3 attacks at WS4+ that do a bunch of additional mortal wounds to big models and it can deep strike for just above 130 points? And it's also fairly durable with T8 W10 Sv3+? Sign me up lol Anything you put into it is just a bonus. Kinda like the Stormraven. Veterans with Stormbolter for super chaff clearing sounds like the best use since they're cheap-ish and do good work tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cognative Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 It's cheaper than a dreadnought and better in so many ways, that I can't imagine not using it. Even just as a replacement for Ironclad Dreadnoughts. Having a stormbolter vet Squad popping out to deal with the chaff that would normally bog down something like this in melee is icing on the cake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Race Bannon Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 As a super-fan of Thunderbirds myself, thank you for asking :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justicarius6 Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 Yeah, compare that drill to the useless lump of a drop pod. If they weren't expensive forgeworld tosh I'd have 3 already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
