What is you DoW favorite and you 40K TT version favorite?
Mine has to be the SM Dreadnought simply because it waddles around laying down the smack on everything. Also the pic of it picking up the ork and ripping it a new one has to be the best thing i have seen in an RTS.
(Apart from the Force Commander running rings around and over the Bloodthirster... or maybe the Bloodthirster shaking the marines off it's axe.)
I like the Elar grav-tanks. They all seem very... sleak... majestic... smooth... I likes.
Thought I can't the rest of the Eldar range. Hence, why I never enjoyed collecting an Eldar army. I might give them another go though. The Scorpion super heavies are loverly and are swaying me back to the skinnies.
From what I've seen in the trailers, a couple of vehicles look groovy. The Defiler animation looks just amazing, and the Falcons look beautiful. Also, the Predator just looks scary coming over those hills...I guess until I get the full game it'll be hard to say which is my favourite. The Dreadnoughts, also, look good...but do they count as vehicles? :P
TT-wise, it probably comes down to the Monolith. Just 'cos its bigger 'n scarier than anything else out there - and has a nice set of rules to go with it, too
In DoW it's probably the Fire Prism Grav Tank.
TT it's the Landspeeder... Don't ask me why... Probably because flanking a formation of infantry and then killing the whole squad with a multi-melta rules
I see this thread getting locked because there are many others like it... Plus these moderators are extremely harsh... Whatever gets them through the day.
Mine is the Defiler. Just love it. Haven't got one yet, but I love it. Looks sooo good in Dawn of War...
Death to the False Emperor!
For Dow my favourite's gotta be the Defiler, I love the way the movement is animated.
As for TT, it's probably the Devilfish solely on the basis that my lil 'fishie has got me out of some seriously painful situations.

In DoW, Wraithlord or Defiler. The Defiler's animation is just incredibly good. In TT it's a tossup between the Scorpion superheavy and the Land Raider Crusader.

That elf mech, giant head, stick limbs... catches my attention basicly because of it's design. yeah, i'm a wh noob, but i like what i see, and i seen that thing, and i like.
the marines (??) seem to be too much of steam punk, and while that's interesting in itself, it doesn't get me excited. Elegance, design, smoothness, and a tad of realism get my vote.
btw what's it name?
*mildly disgusted with negative price discrimination*
I dont really have one but I really like the Land Speeder Typhoon, the Predator, the Falcon and the Hammerhead with its huge railgun
@Ra: Wraithlord!
My vote is the Fire Prism

As far as the tabletop goes, I think it has to be the Wave Serpent. The fact that you basically have to make your own is only a bonus in my book, since I am (was, anyway) a pretty keen converter. That, and it's one of the best vehicles in the game, able to drop a bunch of Aspect Warriors right where my opponent doesn't want them. The fact that it has twin-linked weapons is nice too, since sadly Guardians can't hit the side of a barn door.
In Dawn of War, from what I've seen so far, I think it has to be the Defiler. It's like a giant cockroach with guns and ADHD.
Hahahaha.
No wonder Defilers are so destructive, they have ADHD.
*Smash smash smash*
in dow the land raider
but in tt you cant beat the land raider crusaider its the meatiest hunk of beef out there and has the ability to transport a squad of termies mmmmmmmm beef
In TT definitely Furioso dreadnought, I mean come on who doesn't like the sight of a SM dread tearing enemy vehicle and infantry with dual powerfists. :bandit:
In DoW I'd have to say Landraider. I can't help it I'm a slave to the classics.
in the table top the Flesh tearers Death company Dreadnought, you just gotta love it, in DoW, hmm, id have to say the Land Raider, always a bonus to have something to move my Termies in
On the table top, a Warhound Titan. ( I don't own one, but they look really cool) In DOW I like the Predators, especially with the Heavy Bolter turrets.
i like the ork killa kans in DoW
in TTG i wuv my hammerhead with its big gun and deadly pie plate of doom
the eldar vampyre from epic is my favourite vehicle though, it just looks so so good and its dirtily powerful
on TT i say IG sentinels i know its armour is 10 all round but its just so cool.
on DoW id say the Eldar Avatar with his flameing face
#19
Dr Ransom: You do mean Autocannon turrets right? since Preds can't get Hvy Bolter turrets.
My fav in DoW would be the Falcon.
On TT: I'm divided between a Baneblade and a Shadowsword.
In Soviet Russia, forums moderate YOU!
they cant, funny, mine has heavy bolters...
I think Dr ransom meant side sponson mounted heavy bolters...
#22
TT, Imperial Shadowsword. DoW, probably Land Raider. As you can see, I like big tanks.
#23
The 'Elf Mech' is the Wraithlord. It's basically a construct that houses the soul of a dead Eldar hero (hence the Wraith part). And how exactly are the marines Steam Punk anyway?Originally Posted by Ammon Ra

Anyway my favourate in game has to be the Fire Prism. On the TT, it's too unreliable as it misses half the time, but here it looks great and actually hits stuff.
Anyway on the TT it's got to be the Wave Serpent. It's the second most sturdy transport in the game (after the Land Raider, and in some ways it's even more sturdy thanks to its speed) with excelent speed and firepower, whilst its energy shield and the 'Skimmers moving fast take only glancing hits' help it survive to deliver its cargo to somewhere that your opponent doesn't want you to be. Under the new rules the application of the WS has changed as you can't assault out of it though.

The Marines aren't too steampunk except for the Dreadnoughts,but the entire 40k universe is
I thought it was a bit close to the bone getting locked wise, but we have had just about every "whats or favorite XXXX" but not vehicles. Well none that i could find.
I supose the dreadnought is not really a vehicle as you cannot get in and out of one at will. Hmmmm i'll guess it will have to be the Whirlwind because they remind me of the russian katyusha rocket launching trucks, which in every game i have played with them in have been the most ridiculously destructive and spectacular weapons in the game. Lets hope the Whirlwind done not disappoint! :wowsers:
well id say a dreadnought is a vehicle, i mean it had a pilot/driver, crewmen, its just they cant get out, it dosnt matter that it walks rather than flies either (just incase someone mentions that)
In Dow : Defiler
In TT : The stormblade. No tanks can surpass this baby http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/Imperial...ormblade3l.jpg
Steampunk isn't the right word, I think. Some sort of "fantasy in the future."
DoW, I'd have to go with a Wraithlord.
On the tabletop, either a Phantom, or barring that, definitely the Ravager. That baby is death on air.
Steam Punk is definitely not the right word. :Slap:
I like the warbuggy....there is a shot of an ork practically flying off of the buggy as he is going over a hill. That should be fun in-game.
Screenshot is here--->
http://eurogamer.net/view_screenshot...relic00057.jpg
the Imperial and Chaos HellHound Titan for the TT. Just looks cool.
For the game... Dreadnaught also.
I'd have to say the Defiler for both, I just love'em!
Anything ordnance from the TT E.G Whirlwinds, basilisks and griffons. Also the Baneblade of the IG.
Dreadnoughts seem to look the coolest in DOW.
it's all about the Land Raider Typhus. I mean, a Land Raider with a Typhoon Missle Launcher... Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
_________________________________
The truth is rarely pure and never simple
In TT I would have to say the blood Angels Furiso Dreadnought. It was just the veihicle version of my army, slaughtering in clsoe range.
In DoW, I would have to say Landraider. Just for nostalgic purposes.
Hoverdynes pwn. All of them. In particular the prism tank.
In the TT i would have to say the Rhino the bread and butter of Space Marine maneuverability on the battlefield and in DoW i would have to say from what we know of them my favorite would have to be the Land Raider (added bonus if it is a crusader :bandit
In TT - in terms of funkiness, the Land Speeder Tempest, it just looks so cool. In terms of gameplay. the Monolith, that thing is obscene.
In TT it's the Land Raider Crusader. Transporting more Termies to the enemy. Hmmmm Carnage !!!
And in DoW it' the Land Speeder.Must be cool, hunting foot soldiers down from above.
EDIT: I forgot my all time favourite in TT: The THUNDERHAWK GUNSHIP !!
One day hoping to call one my own.....

Defiler, for all the resons mentioned, the model, the animation etc.
I discovered the other day its actually cheaper points-wise to take the normal Furiso Dread and slap on extra armour. Virtually the same effect, slightly cheaper, and you can stick with a normal BA army for all that extra armoured-goodness
I am forced to agree with both of these. Although the Prism Tank might tie with the Wraithlord.
[p.s: Heyo Teg m'boy.]
tough one for me, actually, but I'd say, only by a small margin, I reckon it is (in DoW, not TT) the defiler maybe - it's very kool, but only beats dreadnought, wraithlord, killa kans, warbuggies, wartrukks, whirlwinds, falcons, fire prisms, predators (Chaos and SMurfs), land raiders... OH WHAT THE HELL - THEY ARE ALL SO KOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

land speeder tempest, followed by marine jetbikes. There is no model, but they do exist.
#46
Hoverdynes? It seems you've changed your mind about Ground Control after all. Either that or the word Hoverdyne has the catch to it. Well still, Eldar Skimmers were the reason I started Eldar in the first place.Hoverdynes pwn. All of them. In particular the prism tank.
I might as well add that I've always liked the new Predators, which look much better than their older counterparts. They look like true proper tanks in my opinion.
Vijil, I take it that the Jetbikes that you're refering to are the ones that are in the Horus Heresy book. Never read it but I suppose the concept drawing must look good.
Zi almighty Falcon Grav Tank. A beautiful vehicle that is fast and has a nice cannon which packs a punch. Not as lethal as its cousin tank but i think it looks better to have a cannon than a crystal.
DoW: ork Killa Kan
TT: Orky Dreadnaught
My favorite model is my custom Ork Dreadnaught that I cobbled together from scraps of about 6 other (non-gw) model kits. It just screams "Orky".
TT - Falcon. Transport 6 Banshees as well as having awesome weapons. Sort of opposites but i like it.
DoW - gotta love a supressing Predator
The coolest tank I've ever seen is the new Scorpion Type II from Forge World.
