Jyrki,
That makes sense for the Razorback about the ability
to transport one troop stand. The price is cheap when
you consider it next to a Bonebreaka (1 shot -2 TSM
75cm)or a Bonecruncha (2 shots -1 TSM 50cm). It has
equal armor and can carry troops and shoots further in
the case of the bonecruncha and fires twice compared
to the bonebreaka. Those Ork vehicles are 150 pts for
3. The only drawback is it can't divide its fire. At
150 points its cheap or the Ork tanks are too
expensive.
I hope the bikes are a typo but it makes more sense to
make the SM bikes 125 and the IG bikes 100 points
rather than raise the price.
I think the Landraiders are fairly priced and maybe
the predator too cheap. Never did like the predator
anyway. Nyaah it an old git piece of crap. You don't
want to be using them now, do you?
