==How to counter== For non-Blood Angels players it's worth discussing how to counter Old Slammy. The only way to effectively counter him is to run away or surrender, thus saving yourself the beating you deserve for facing the Sons of the IX Legion, you stinking heretic! In all seriousness his weakness is the same as nearly every killy character in 8th. Hordes. Even with the maximum attacks that's still only 9 guys you're exploding, tops. But even then, he has Fly. He only fights hordes if he WANTS to. If you're worried about the slammy boi killing your knights, land raiders characters ect, splash in some wolves with a rune priest and some heavy weapons. Give the rune priest the armor of russ and let him babysit your big toys and keep some heavies or a shooty tank nearby. When the slammer comes down from deepstrike use the runepriest to intercept him and keen senses to git rid of all minuses for intercepting and toting those big guns around. Blast him on his own turn at full BS with 5 laz cannons, heavy bolters or plasma cannons even after advancing those bastards. If that sounds too pricey the librarian himself is usually enough. Hang out near your priority target, armor of russ in hand then heroically intervene 6" when he charges. Then watch his jaw hit the floor when you tell him your armor makes him fight last (unless ol' Slammy has Speed of Sanguinius, then it's a slapfest to see who charges first) in the phase. He'll still get a swing in when he dies, but 1 swing is better than 2. Be forewarned, anyone smart enough to use their eyes will know what's going on and adjust. And may square up ignore the Rune Priest, as nothing prohibits him from making a charge into the knight you're guard-dogging. Using terrain will make the ploy easier as long as you can keep his movement limited. Edit- alternately, post FAQ just spend a few points on your faction's trash screen unit. He can't <Fly> over it now. You'll still need to worry for the late game, but until then just keep up the dakka. Edit2- post the newest FAQ, Slamguinius (and all other flyers) are charging over screens again, just not terrain. This jam has no brakes!
