damn terminators

[Deleted]

Anyone have any good tactics on how to get rid of terminators, because the majority of the time I am playin a space marine army with 3 terminator squads. 1 assualt squad, n 2 normal ones. Thanks.

this may be a noobish answer, but plasma, plasma, and more plasma... they should also fall like ninepins to the demolisher cannon, rough riders could be effective in assault, and if all alse fails an officer and a commisar with power weapons/fists should be able to take a couple down.

peace out

I agree with abyss. Get as much plasma as you can. Theres not much you can do diffrently. Just keep shooting at them. Sometimes the lasgun DO kill terminators..

[sammy1979]

im a big fan of snipers myself lots and lots of snipers and distance lots of distance i often offer up something valuble for them to deep strike on. then sniper hot shots. and hopefully the dice gods give me something. but i do agree with Kyron last time my conscripts got charged but with there commisar and officer close by the held and eventually took the wolf guard down. so any guard can kill the hulking brutes just requires lots and lots of shots.

Well...as said before, all AP2 or AP 1 weapons...
I think you guys know about the Inquisitor combo, I explain:
you take a deamon hunter inquisitor, you add him 2 psykers (allows you free shots to every deep striking troops in 4D6") and take a Demolisher and....let's have fun!!!

well if u felt like wasting a couple of your guys and feel lucky, use my tactic( fer fun though, u'de get knocked outa competitions) send 5 squads of conscripts with flamers and g.launchers, fun but costly ;D

Demolisher with plasma cannons and a las cannon.

AT squads with lascannons so you can take out the termies from long range.

inq lord + demolisher combo works nicely..
plasmas for sure.. rapid fire ultimate death.. take them as vets and the serg with a plasma pistol.. 7/8 shots within 12 inchs depending if you move or not.. take the vet doctrine.. make this 3 times.. add deep strike from doctrine drop troops and all is well.. he wont take so many terminators once that happens..
conscripts with commissar power fist combo works nicely as well..
lascannons work but usually since they deep strike it wont be as effective.. plus the one shot will more than likely miss when needed..

numbers and invul save will kill them not one shot kills.. try to get as many actual shots at them and go from there.. take grenadiers and storm troops as troops in small 5 man squads with plasma to have to hold buildings that they will try to assault you with then open fire when they get close as well..

hope this helps mate..

I agree with above lots of plasma snipers and lascannons. also a demolisher would work nicely to.

Thanks for all the great tactics, I post up next time I battle and use as many ideas as I can.

[fatuous]

And of course, target 1 unit at a time. I find concentrated lasgun/pistol fire can work well. If they deepstrike, start putting down the templates.

[dethklok]

Well in the past i dont much remeber what i did with my guard. i think i just las volley and laugh as they die in their 5 ton armor. i know that with Eldar i use the Fire Prism and Harliquins [yeah 36 strength 4, weapon skill 5, initiative 7, rending attacks, with rerolls on hits thanks to psycic abilities] ;D.

Cheers Dethklok

HHHHmmmmmm! harliquins .what do you think of the new ones coming out

[Turtleboy(AWOL)]

a couple demo charges in your lines can occasionally do wonders too and are often overlooked though it takes alot of luck and insightful deployment to have a demo charge right where you need it when termies come in in your midst.

[dethklok]

I realy like the new Harlies but i would like it more if they had more optoins of models for the ones armed with Kisses. i might just buy new spirit seer and new Death Jester and buy the old Quins with Kisses.

Termie's are a noobs best friend....and a pro's nightmare per se

[Deleted]

I was playing deamon hunters and my grand master fired his storm bolter at the termies and actually killed one with the 2 shots

[Turtleboy(AWOL)]

where's your stash of purity seal bits!?

[Deleted]

these were plain shots belive it or not

[Deleted]

Best way to take out termies and funniest 50 Conscripts rapid firing into them, or assaulting them. Plasma works out great.

[Oztoon]

I fire my bassies at them first and have my missile launchers take care of the rest. And if all else fails plough into them with ten rough riders.

[Deleted]

assault them with wyches or incubi...oh...wait. this is IG.

urm.,...shoot them? wiht LOTS of plasma or pie plates.

[thefishki345]

lol

[Warmaster Stabwhiskers]

He deep striked into firing range of my demolisher...need i say more?

[Deleted]

The first second i looked at the demolisher cannon's stats, i accually felt a little sorry for my deathwing-playing friend. I'd advance it right withv my infantry to discourage/utterly destroy any deepstriking termies. BS4 plasma would work nicely too (veteran squads!).
