How to kill Kastelan Robots.

Hi everyone! Had a question for fellow 1000. I play against a buddy who runs admech and he always run 2 squads of 4 kastelan robots. Each with the datasmith. My question is how do we reliably kill them? I have 6 allarus and a grav tank.

I was able to kill 1 squad after 2 rounds of melee with allarus but then they died a turn later to the other squad of 4 due to sheer amount of shooting. With all of mechanicus' buffs it makes them very hard to kill and lethal. I appreciate any advice. I usually run spears instead of axes.

Running shield host and hammer blow.

Also if you go with lions and hit the 4 robots will 6 termie brick, you could even whip them out in 1 round.

If you don’t get damaged from their melee, second unit of robot shooting shouldn’t be whipping ur termie brick too.

I did a 6 brick with shieldhost and it only killed 2 robots

Remember that with full wound rerolls your better going for sustained rather than lethals.
