Chrome Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 I would change this: Armor section Rhino Butcher Tiger Sabretooth Puma Puma Support section Mastadon Conqueror Conqueror Ogre Oem Puma Puma To: armor Rhino Ogre Butcher Tiger Sabertooth recon Puma x4 specialist Mastodon Conq x2 Depending on the costs I'd consider dumping the Conqs and buying another Mastodon, but then that's my favorite model. If you keep the Conqs, check to see how much a Chain Fire Pod costs (Upgrades) and put one on the Mastodon if you can. Use the Pumas as a flanking force. Double-move then down whichever side of the table provides the most cover so that your opponent can't shoot them up, then rush a group of models that are bunched up enough that their Flamers can overlap multiple targets. This strategy can wreck havok on a group of models grouped around an ECM model since the Flamer's AOE attack ignores the Jamming bonus.

Teutonic Terror Posted July 12, 2011 Share Posted July 12, 2011 To: armor Rhino Assassin Butcher Tiger Sabertooth recon Puma x5 specialist Mastodon long rifle Mastodon long rifle smoke strike x4 Ok I edited the list once more, dropped the Conqs..added 2 Mastodon LR's, dropped the Ogre, added an Assassin, had enough for another Puma and 46 points left over..I dropped the Ogre and added the Assassin so the CAVS all had close to similar movement, Ogre was too slow.

Chrome Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 Personally I love Pumas, so you can't go wrong with them IMO. Keep in mind that they're best used as fast attack models and you'll be fine. Just remember that they're fragile, so use them aggressively to inflict some damage before they get chewed up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirikus Posted November 19, 2014 Share Posted November 19, 2014 (edited) I'm bringing Sirk's Strikers back from retirement thanks to the kickstarter, even painted up some of the metal figs I've had kicking around for 9 years or so... Even have some pix still kicking around the boards here http://forum.reapermini.com/index.php?/topic/15657-sirks-strikers/?hl=%2Bsirk+%2Bstrikers Edited November 19, 2014 by sirikus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mastergunz Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Reading through 'War for Sale' right now and think i'll be making a 'Blades' force. Love the Logo. I know the 'Furies' are written as being destroyed but since CAV:SO is basically rebooting the universe im hoping they come back as a living faction. So, if we are claiming mercs put me down for 'The Blade' and 'Furies'. -Gunz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsmiles Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 So, with Independents, you can basically "create your own" when it comes to a force, as long as you use "open market"-type CAVs/vehicles? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not an authority on this, but I would say mostly open market. There are references to the major factions "dumping" CAVs at the end of various wars.
