Space Marines Needed: Rhinos and Predators Not Necessary: Land Raiders and Dreadnoughts It is going to be really difficult to implement Land Raiders. They are mindbogglingly powerful and including them without breaking the lore is going to be hard. Dreadnoughts again are tricky whilst also suffering from a sheer unworkableness. Even if you could sort out who gets a dreadnought and when, a vehicle with weak rear armour that only moves as fast as an infantryman and relies on close quarter engagements is going die. Frequently. It is going to require constant assistance by infantry to ensure that it doesn't get outmaneuvered. I'd love to see the Land Raider implemented but it is a combination of troop transport, main battle tank and incredible armour that renders it borderline superheavy. I'd rather have a separate transport and main battle tank than combine them together.
Wraithguard are already in, man. They're our terminator unit - the super heavy troop that costs requisition to field, like the max in PS2. Confirmed by devs when the eldar newsletter came out. But dreadnoughts are still on the table, I think... devs haven't confirmed one way or the other.
1. Chaos 2. I really want to see the Defiler show up here. I've always loved the look of it because it just screams chaos. Its one of those options that really sets the CSM apart from their misguided counterparts. It even has a special variant for each Chaos God. I'd also like to see the Rhino as a basic troop transport. Maybe give us the option to switch out the parts to make it into a Vindicator for a bit more variety. 3. The Land Raider is a bit much for me. If you want to move troops take a Rhino. If you want damage grab a Predator. I also have to go with the Dreadnought here. I think the Defiler could fill the same role while making us less of a mirror-race of Space Marines and adding a fairly unique vehicle.
1. Sisters of Battle 2. The Exorsist is cool, if we could get an immolator decked out like the sistine chapel in honor of the Emperor it would be nice for troop transport heavily armored since in a game where everyone else is long range doubt the flamers would do much more than decoration 4. There arent many vehicles, ummmm, so yea there ya go. But since they can Req anything, id say that land raiders and chimeras are not really the style of the Sisters of Battle if they only get two vehicles to represent them, the unique ones which are just modified versions of existing vehicles would be nice, its just a diff skin so shouldnt be a big deal.
I had thought we might get Exarchs or something as superheavy troops, but wraithguards are fine i guess.
1.-Space Marines 2.- Rhinos & Bikes 3.- Land Raider, Dreadnought Those two vehicles would be hard to implement, while you have other vehicles that could do for players. Besides most of the "common" tanks are all Rhino chassis based (Razorback, Predator, Whirlwind, Hunter, Stalker and Vindicator), so they can just be bought as upgrades to the rhino (besides the regular Vehicle upgrades. Dreadnoughts could work as NPC to fight Tyranids paying requisition to deploy some as part of an NPC force with limitation to their number as they are not very common. Land Riders are a bit harder since you must consider the Power of the Machine Spirit amongst other balancing issue that might come up with trying to find similarly strong vehicles for other races.
