The Predator Destructor. Or, as some like to call it, the Predator Millstone. ;)

Should it's FF be improved in the hopes of making it competitive?

I think FF3+ should be done, though I'm not convinced it's enough on it's own.

In my own marine list I'm writing up I will be costing the formation variably; if you have 0-2 Annihilators in the Predator formation it cost 250pts, if you have 3-4 it costs 275pts. That makes Destructors decent I feel and perhaps might even lead to some taking mixed formations of the two.

I'm in favour of FF3+ Pred D's, purely because we've tested them with FF4+ lots and still not found them as useful as Pred A's.

this sounds like a perfect fix IMO. I can't wait to see your list GlynG. ;D

59% in favour of FF3+, rising to 70% if including those who want to test FF3+...

Now 71% who want either immediate adoption of FF3+, or want to test it.

Which way does the Count think we should go?

He is, after all, the expert on all things numeric.

voted for FF 3+, as it really needs something and seems in keeping with the unit. Was 2 x FF4+ considered as well?

2x FF 4+ is way OTT. It is 150% as effective as FF3+, and really only considered for FF oriented infantry like Dire Avengers.

FF3+ is the next, cautious step, after the FF4+ that's been playtested for the past year.

And it has 76% support.

It's pred D here, not Pred A, unless there's something I don't understand.
