-----> For E40K I think the answer against the Soviet Rocket Corps would
be lots of troops with "save" - it's the all T-Hawk (can you hit a flyer
with
a deathstrike missile? I don't think so but somebody check the rules...)
and terminator army. He can't kill _everybody_...

(as an aside I'm curious - does he fire all 60 at once, or does he save
a few
, or half-n-half or what?)

(Oh and for SM/TL, I'd take chaos - bloodletters & horrors, anyone? A
Lord
of Change gets close enough and a big block of those launchers gets
tied up in HTH...SPAWN!...and you can still use T-hawks. There might
also finally be a use for those Tzeentch flyers...)

(Parting thought #3 - orks w/lots 'o mekboy dragstas in SM/TL might
work also, and nobz might be able to shoot the missile down...)
