I have 5 Godhammer pattern Land Raiders that really need updating to useful configurations.
Because I have no motivation to convert or paint anything unless there is a tournament usable list involved I got to thinking about Blood Angels...
As Blood Angels can take Land Raiders as dedicated transports* I'm wondering if a Land Raider Spam army is viable at a competitive level. I tried it once with the Chaos Codex but as we all know the Chaos Codex is shit.
* There's a vague internet debate about whether you can or not based around the page numbers of the relative dedicated transports. But as the background for the chapter and the GW press release both say you can I'm going to presume the rules lawyers are all twats and ignore them completely.
I am considering the following as a core.
Librarian (100)
Assault Squad (100), Remove Jump Packs (-35 to dedicated transport) (100)
Land Raider Crusader (215), Multi-Melta (+10) (225)
Assault Squad (100), Remove Jump Packs (-35 to dedicated transport) (100)
Land Raider Crusader (215), Multi-Melta (+10) (225)
Assault Squad (100), Remove Jump Packs (-35 to dedicated transport) (100)
Land Raider Crusader (215), Multi-Melta (+10) (225)
Assault Squad (100), Remove Jump Packs (-35 to dedicated transport) (100)
Land Raider Redeemer (215), Multi-Melta (+10) (205)
Total - 1380 so far
Which at 1850 leaves me 470 points to spend on support elements.
As I never use Land Raiders (yes I know, why the fuck have I got 6 then?!?!?) I need the advice of people who actually do use them. So is the idea fundamentally flawed or can it be done?
