Title: Zhadsnark verses Biker Boss
Post by: adamscurr on July 9, 2017, 08:45:23 AM
So I'm working on my list when the idea of Shadsnark instead of a biker boss came up... There are pros and cons to each and I wanted your thoughts on them...

Biker Boss
So I'm picturing a biker boss with a kustom shoota and a pk... Obviously he is a beast in close combat and with the dakka gunz and KS, he can pump out some serious firepower on top of his warboss abilities to inspire the boyz to greater mayhem!

Zhadsnark
So this guy looses some dakka, not actually, but his dakka gunz get swapped for big shootas... Couldn't resist, sorry! :) Anyhow, he does not have the option for a kustom shoota so he does loose some dakka, trading it in for a much larger range with the BS.

He does have Da pain klaw, which seems far superior to the standard PK. It still doubles the strength, but has the added benefit of not having to hit with -1 and has a lower ap. In addition, it has the possibility to cause mortal wounds. He also has the same army effects as the WB.

Best, he comes in at 5 points less than the above mentioned warboss... In my opinion, he is the better choice... Am I missing anything...

You must have the ork addendum to FW rules. I don't have that book (yet) so I would be unable to comment.

Since I have not really played "points" yet, only power levels, is the power level the same?

Other than that it is a kool model, so use it and make sure to paint his vest red  ;D

I didn't even look at the power level... Everyone at my store uses points so I never bother...

I know pointwise he was cheaper than my biker boss and seemed to have more cool stuff... :) PL wise he seems to be more expensive... Go figure... :)
