As far as the question from March 2013 ... maybe a havok launcher, but that would be it. I think the predator is a bad investment for Chaos in 6th as of this period in the meta.<br />TJ Atwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01304177224607153451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-87376394426130577612013-04-14T07:38:49.683-04:002013-04-14T07:38:49.683-04:00the post is from 2009...the post is from 2009...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-91024045130706391172013-03-19T01:57:43.672-04:002013-03-19T01:57:43.672-04:00where did 160 come from for the twin las, las spon...where did 160 come from for the twin las, las sponsors version? the base Pred is 75, replace autocannon with twin las +25, las sponsors +40 = 140... that being said, what are some ideas for vehicle equipment items for this build? maybe the havoc launcher would be useful as something to fire if you run out of las targets?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4101762574768178801.post-66307459556358649322012-07-07T23:50:04.196-04:002012-07-07T23:50:04.196-04:00I use defilers + land raiders instead.

The oblits mean you basically have two of a predator type on a given turn, and a decent chunk of armor in the backfield.<br /><br />Any way you cut it, though, you have to pick fire lanes well, as the blasted things are not that mobile AND if you have Rhinos, you can do a wonder for blocking your own fire lanes for sponsons.Raptor1313https://www.blogger.com/profile/16909802419382710809noreply@blogger.com
