I really wanted to make Vendattas work since I own three. Drop those melta vets out with the commander and crush another tank. I like flying near a target, dropping my officer, and giving the vendetta a 3+ hit. Or fill it with beefy bullgryns for nasty charges the turn they jump out since it grav shoots, and then moves towards the target and gets a nice short charge. I am getting great success with a vendetta (holds 12bodies now) transporting a company commander, 2 melta command squads and an officer of the fleet.

In that comparison I think the Annihilator comes out very well, the extra range making a big difference, and the loss of one point of strength not much of an issue. You're right that the comparison with the demolisher is more appropriate. You basically trade the lascannons' range for the Demolisher's ability to switch to D3 shots when targeting big units.īattle cannons are indeed great general purpose weapons, I really really like them. They basically do the same number of hits, and the demolisher's strength 10 isn't very significant over S9. The annihilator costs the same as the demolisher cannon, which is probably a better comparison. They manage to be a decent option for a Leman Russ's turret weapon. I like battlecannons, not because they are especially great, but because they are what the fluff says they should be - cheap, and reasonably effective against any target. They are also quite a bit more expensive. They are more specialised than battlecannons, and are therefore better at their job.
