Anti-Bike (Ravenwing) Suggestions

[hellbringer]

I've been having problems with bikes recently most of all my buddy's Raven w/ Chaplain on bike attached. Does anybody have an suggestions for anti-bike tactics?

first of all, what army do you play? some armies will have to tackle this differently than others.

missile launchers are good. insta-kill a marine on a bike, because there Toughness counts as 4 for the purposes of instant death. A devastator squad with missile launchers are pretty accurate and could do ok. Vindicators could do ok for space marines or chaos space marines, but then again they're good against lots of things.

i would say more, but it's really gonna depend on your army. and would you prefer Shooting solutions or CC? :confused:

Hydras, Leman Russ', and just pour as much firepower into them as possible. They really aren't all that scary. Essentially they're t5 faster marines. Just do what you would against marines.

Power weapons? Idk what army are you playing with? I'm guessing outflanking bikes is probably the issue but one squad of ravenwing bikes should not be a problem if he's just running them down the board.

Bikes aren't that great in assault, so dedicated assault troops work well, plus you don't have to worry about popping their transport first. You just have to catch them.

Shooty armies can also put the hurt on bikes via weight of fire.
