Corsairs are my 6th Ed army. They're starting off as allies to my Craftworld Host but by the time I'm finished will be their own fully operational detachment. Have loads of questions as my army's still in the planning stages but I'll hold fire on those till I've read all the discussions here. The main factors I'm presently considering is Warwalkers and Jump capability vs Falcons and how many Warwalkers should I deploy in suport of each infantry unit?
Things I noticed on the 40kO tourny.
- Jetpacking troops in 10 man squads are not worth it IMHO.
With the reduced cover and their paper armour they die way to fast.
An idea popped into my head to use 5 man squads with fusion gun and shuriken cannon and DS them as a suicide AT squad at the rear of a vehicle.
This will only cost 70 points, or 60 if you leave the cannon out.
- Falcons are reasonable in surviving as long as you move them.
Leave Holo-fields and Spirit Stones off as they only cost points and do nothing as most of my Falcon deaths were due to glancing hits.
Scatter Laser was nice to have on it, except vs Crons...AV13 spam is what they do best -.-
- Warwalkers...no idea have yet to use them.
