Suezarians stronk Sub-Edition
In the last bread we saw the Warhammer Word exclusive, discussed if it looked more like Tartaros, an EC Anon needed help deciding what to get, murdering Eldar with Volkite is an undisputed goal all should strive for, Suezarians remain stronk, I got help making my KE, an Anon made the jump to 30k, FW released something new, and much more in the old thread >>47570876

Claimed by 9th legion. For Sanguinius!
>>47599481
2nd for XIX Predation Fleets
Is there a tutorial on how to make combi-plasmas with the B@C terminator combi-bolters? I know some people have done it but I'd like to know the whole process before fucking it all up.
Help.

>666
By your will, it shall be done.
>>47599666
What always gets me is what Would Sanguinius be like as a daemon primarch. I mean,Fulgrim was the embodiment of human perfection, and he mutated into a huge marilith. Would Sanguinius have gone completely vampire, or full-blown eldritch horror angel?
>>47599839
He would have been the perfect embodiment of Chaos, seeing as he was the perfect embodyment of Humanity.
So we will never know.

>>47599815
:^)
>>47599839
>I mean,Fulgrim was the embodiment of human perfection, and he mutated into a huge marilith
The body came to reflect the man's mind.
Sanguinius himself dreamt about what he would have been (Fear to tread): A literal blood angel, with skeleton wings.
So yeah, full-blown eldritch horror angel.
>>47599863
That was a good thread. And by good I mean absolutely evil.
>>implying such a fabulous cinnamon bun could ever turn
Of course he was. He loved his children beyond all reason, and he was willing to sacrifice himself in order to, as he wrongly though, save them. IfMeroshadn't sacrificed himself instead of him, we would have the True Red Angel, to kick the shit out of Angron, >>47599895
>>47599663
This also interests me.
>>47600001
>evil
If Hell is like the mass Satan convention then maybe Hell isn't so bad.
>literal blood angel
Papa Sang must not know what true terror is. Blood isn't scary, skeletons are.
>>47600038
Cut the other side of the combi-bolter so that only the part with the ejection port remains. Attach it to the other side and the add the plasmapistol. You'll need to make the plasma pisto a bit thinner on one side to align it completely with the bolter part. Fill any gaps and the ejection port with GS.
>>47600376
Also I forgot to mention that you need to attach the plasma pistol part upside down if you use this method.

Just out of interest, how upset are you yiffs/Vlka Fenryka players that Leman Russ' model wont include Geri and Freki?
Also, are they going to be called the Vlka Fenryka or Space Wolves in the HH?
Anyone actually use the campaign or scenario rules in the big black books before?
Now that my local HH meta is picking up it might be fun to try some out

B@C pistols on one side and the combi bolter on the other side, ~FIN~
>>47602004
Wait a minute...
Discounting the Techmarine and Vehicles, and including the BaC boxes, that's like:
>180 Legion Tacticals
>30 Cataphractii Terminators
>6 Contemptor Dreadnoughts
>6 Cataphractii Praetors
>6 Legion Chaplains
>1 6ft. tall poster of a Space Marine of a legion of your choice.
That's one huge army. I don't know how much I'd save on that, or even how much it is in American $, or what the shipping costs to California would be, but it's a lot.
But the poster would be cool to have.
I guess I could make two armies and introduce my friends to the game, or something?
Hmmm.... I know I want to start up a Word Bearers army, but I'm not sure what to make the 3 BaC boxes. Ultramarines?
>>47601842
Really though, dragging and dropping real tanks is going to make their stats terrible compared to the ceramite-slabbed nuclear powered tanks of 40k
>>47602198
Sweet Night Lords, anon!
>>47602235
On one hand, I could get a poster.
On the other hand, I'd end up buying a ton of models that I'd likely end up not using.
Truly, a grand dilemma, as I have a love of posters.
Who's the best space marine in 30k and why is it Sigismund?
>>47600001
>kick the shit out of Angron
>Implying
>>47602465
The best space marines in 30k are the nameless line troops, who don't have people trying to masturbate over how high their powerlevels are. The guys who have to deal with all the bullshit without fancy toys and plot armour.
>>47602945
This is why i refuse to run my Primarch of first captain
It feels so much better taking down a primarch with nameless soldiers than if you just threw some expensive meatgrinder of a named character at them
>>47602235
I think that's wrong. The description is misleading.
You would only be getting the 3 BaC boxes that are in the bundle. You aren't getting 3 extra BaC boxes.
I want to make a Terminator centered army, either with Pride of the Legion, or ways to take them as troops.
Which Legion is best for that?
>>47602995
I feel weird even taking named units, outside of special circumstances.
If you can't do something with basic marines, veterans and tanks, you aren't trying hard enough.
>>47603140
Nah mate. The three BaC boxes are extra. He gets everything he listed, which is why it's crazy.
Compare it to the Task Force bundles, which have the same semi-misleading description as well.
>>47602004
For that big of a purchase they could at least throw in upgrade sets and maybe a primarch/first captain
3rd party bit sellers and recasters throw in extra freebies even when I only get like $20 worth of stuff.
>>47603143
Sons of Horus, Salamanders, World Eaters, Death Guard.
>>47603178
I'm calling BS. Has someone ordered the bundle to confirm or has an email from support to clarify? Even googling turns up nothing about that offer.
To me, the bundle looks like another one-click that saves 1 pound 870 vs. 871. No way would FW be nice enough to throw in 285 pounds worth of stuff for free.
>>47603344
I used the Task Force bundles as an example, because they're about twice as much as BaC, and come with upgrades, as well as having the confusing description like the Devastation Force.
So I'm thinking all those vehicles and stuff is a bonus that says pretty much "Wow, someone actually ordered all this." Or something. I dunno.
>>47603417
Plus, there's also the fact that it says:
>Also included are three copies of the full Horus Heresy: Betrayal at Calth game, each including four double-sided boards, beautifully printed on thick card stock; a forty-eight page book, featuring an introduction to the battle on Calth and comprehensive rules and scenarios for playing the game; forty-two command and reference cards, used to introduce effects and events into the game; twelve dice and an array of markers used in-game.
Make note of the use of the words:
>Also included are three copies of the FULL Horus Heresy: Betrayal at Calth game...
Which leads me to believe that it indeed, does have everything the one anon said.
>>47603479
BaC game doesn't include the models.
>>47602235
>>47603178
>>47603417
>>47603479
You stupid idiots, the last paragraph refers to the board game parts of BaC, i.e. the cardboard, rulebook, dice etc.
The description very clearly says that you get 114 plastic models, aka. the models from 3 BaC boxes, and even lists them in detail.
The Task Force bundles are exactly the same, they list that you get 38 models (1 BaC) and a separate paragraph mentioning that you get the cardboard, rules etc. from the same BaC box.
They're stupid one-click bundles, nothing else. If you're retarded enough to buy the biggest one-click bundle, you get a free poster worth 5 bucks, woop de doo.
>>47603417
The task force bundles are also the one click bundles that save you 2 pounds. Nothing is free in those. The Devastation Force is no different. They included that paragraph at the bottom of the bundles to let the buyer know that Betrayal at Calth is a standalone game.
>>47603201
>Sons of Horus
Not really interested in them.
>Salamanders
They're cool, but again, not really interested in them.
>World Eaters
The Red Butchers could make for a cool Melee oriented list, which sounds pretty cool.
>Death Guard
Seems pretty cool, actually. And if I have my math right, their Elite Termis are only 122 points for 10 of them. Though, I'm a bit iffy on their color scheme.
The Iron Hands one seems pretty good as well.
>>47603618
>122 points for 10 of them
I think your math is not right at all
>>47603634
Probably. I'm tired.
>>47603523
Tried to tell him he read the description wrong but he was so sure of himself I had to look into it to see if I had it wrong as I didn't know if it was a new bundle.
>>47603523
It just doesn't make sense to me though. Why then, would the Devastation force throw in three BaC boxes?
And with the Task Forces, they're 225£, yes? Yet BaC is only 95£. Upgrades are only 30£. Therefore it should not be amywhere near those prices if it didn't come with twice the models.
>>47603634
Huh, yeah, I think I hit the addition onstead of multiplication button on the calculator, it's 410 for the ten of them. A bit on the pricy side.
>>47603728
There's 3 upgrade sets in them.
>>47603795
Huh.... You're right.
Well shoot, now I feel like a huge fool, my apologies!
>>47603143
IF Have the best termis. THSS with tartaros for that sweet 2+/3++ S8 AP2 that can sweeping advance.
DG have the second best with tartaros death shroud. They don't have the 3++ but have I3 AP2 at S5 or 6 I forget which. Plus you can take the DG HQ that knows the endurance psychic power.
EC phoenix are good, but more glass hammers. You have to charge to get AP2 but the initiative buff and recent tartaros buff are great.
>>47604153
Hmmm... Good to know.
Right now it's a toss-up between IH, DG, and WE.
Cool Gorgon Termis, Cool Scythe Termis, or Dual Chainaxe RAGE Termis is the real question now.
>>47604356
Death Guard
Theyve always seemed to me like the most fun to paint. Also the idea of termies spewing chemical death and cutting people down with scythes is cool as fuck
>>47604366
Yeah, true enough. Though my problem is that I'm not sold on their color scheme, whereas the Iron Hands have that cool grease/oil(?) looking color scheme, and the World Eaters have a nice White and Blue, with Red symbol.
Hmmm....

What buff?
>>47605683

>>47605814
I was sure Tartaros could always do that.
>>47605826
Tartaros used to just use the rules for regular Terminator armour.
>>47605826
They did, but had a 6++. Then changed to 'normal' termi rules. Now they're still 5++ but can sweep again.

>You will lose many men. Luckily, the Emperor has seen to it that we have plenty of those.
t. Pertuabo.
>>47605826
>>47605949
According to book 1 and the Legions Army list book Tartaros cannot sweep and are treated just like normal terrmie armour, it got faqed not to long ago to be able to sweep
>>47606361
I'm referring to the first tartaros rules, pre 30k expansion from one of the imperial armours iirc. Then they only had a 6++ but could sweep. Then I think an FAQ changed them to normal, and then 30k came about and they used normal. Now, years later, they can sweep again, but have a 5++ too.
>>47606411
Wow, that sounds pretty old. What IA was that?
>>47604153
Arguably you could bring 4++ Deathshroud provided you give them the appropiate shoulders (like the new cataphractii ones released a few weeks ago), since they're listed as wearing unspecified termi armour atm.
Won't be corrected until AoD 3E
>>47602004
Oh I could get started strong, but Papa Sang, that's too much.
>tfw the small Iron Warriors etched brass breaks apart really easily thanks to the gaps in the mouth
>tfw my contemptor has one stuck on his crotch
Anyone know if the smallest etched brass parts for other legions are as weak? Specifically, the Imperial Fists?
>>47606841
>Changing legion because modelling the other one is too hard
Shameful display.
>>47606985
No, anon. He wants to know if anyone else was shat on, or if it was only IW. Again.
Going to re-ask, should I expect anyone to get all hot and bothered at me for mixing 30mm and 32mm bases within the same unit?
What special weapons are worth taking on a breacher team? I feel volkite (2-4 guns won't generate that many bonus hits) and lascutters aren't worth it, but not sure between the other three.
Kind of leaning towards meltaguns because as well as anti-tank, they have the bonuses of being able to hurt primarchs and instant death special 2W terminators if those targets come in close enough. Although being death guard, shredding flamers could be fun.
>>47607233
Bonus rules question which I'll ask separately because it's probably cheaty bullshit: can you reroll a save from a gets hot template weapon if you're wearing hardened armour? Like I say, I suspect not, but I'll ask anyway.
>>47607242
On further reading, gets hot just says the model suffers a wound, not that the weapon causes a wound. So if it's not the flamer causing the wound, don't think this idea works.
>>47607233
Dg are partial to bolters, flamers and meltaguns, it's fluffy of them as much as toxic weaponry, or at least that's what HH1 claims.
>>47607233
DG breachers with flamers in a reaping list can be an absolute nightmare to charge
>5d3 auto-hits against an opponent at -1T who loses charge bonuses
yes
>>47607005
Basically this.
>>47606985
No, I have two legions, an OPFOR and a BLUFOR.
I just want to know if the IF small brass is more usable.
>>47607579
A what-for?
>>47600755
AV 14/12/10
Main Gun, Coaxial Heavy Stubber (probably multilaser for 30k since the Imperial Army seems obsessed with them), Option for a pintle heavy stubber
Main gun is str 9, AP 2, 72" range
Didn't want to make its main gun identical to the vanquisher but Str 8 seemed too weak.
>>47605456
If they had cataphractii armour I would totally buy them but indomitus is just pointless.
>>47605949
Honestly the rules should be
Tartaros: 6++ improves to 5++ in CC
Cataphractii: Stays the same
Indomitus: Stays the same
Sweeping advance isn't worth making your invul save almost worthless but if it was 6++ and 5++ in assault you could survive assault as well as indomitus and sweep the survivors but would get shot to pieces when not in CC.
>>47607941
>just pointless
Indomitus is the best looking variant, which is the only thing that matters.
>>47607968
I like Cataphracti, has more of a clunky space knight/soldier vibe like the older Marks do.
>>47607968
I've always preferred cataphractii or tartaros depending on the legion or chapter. One of the more heavy handed ones like the Iron Warriors and Sons of Horus seem more fit in cataphractii,the more finesse or pretty legions and chapters seem more fit in tartaros like the Emperor's Children and Blood Angels.
>>47607685
For fun.
I like painting, modelling, and playing both legions (helps they have a rivalry), if I have friends over who don't have 30k armies, they can play one of the two, and if my friends who do play are over, then that's more varied, multifactional play.
It's not any more complicated than that.
>>47608043
Cataphractii works for everyone because it looks like an old prototype model and it has enough trim to look ornate.
Indomitus works for everyone because it's an in-between pattern, aesthetically, at least.
>>47605456
Now my eternal question on these is: what colour are they? Green?
Why the fuck are they green?
>>47608311
It's more of an oily color. I oike it honestly, looks nice.

Black with a grey tint and oily shit on it.

>>47608097
>>47608867
>OPFOR and BLUFOR are military terms and basically means friendlies (BLUFOR) and hostiles (OPFOR)
Gotcha, thanks. Or cheers, as you like to say. I tend to forget how many 40k/30kfags hail from the military.
>>47609861
I'm not actually military (for now, at least), I just think OPFOR/BLUFOR is a good terminology, and have an appreciation for military stuff, something rather common among wargamers, though I believe the OPFOR/BLUFOR terminology comes from Cold War times rather than WW2, the most common modelling time period.
And I didn't know "cheers" was a military thing.
From my understanding, it's a Briticism.
>>47609661
>Fluffy.
Well, that's good at least.
>Functional, but low model count, and insufficient ranged by themselves.
Well, I like the low model count, but the insufficient range might be a problem.
Really, I'm indecided about the legion I want to do.
Either Word Bearers or Death Guard. I like both their color schemes, and they both seem pretty cool.
>>47609889
Yeah, I meant "cheers" as the briticism for thanks. It'd be hillarious to hear it in a military radio, though
>Tactical Cheers, roger.
>I'm not actually military (for now, at least)
What are you going to get enlisted into, anon?
>>47609917
Also some other questions:
Is footslogging viable with either legion?
How good are the Mhara Gal dreads? I love their model but I want to know if it's worth it to take them.
How would one paint either legion? I know that there's a video on GW's channel for Word Bearers, though it's not as complete as I'd like it to be.
>>47609661
>>47609917
>>47610005
The Death Guard utterly rocks in Zones Mortalis scenarios (if you play that) with their billion termies, enhanced templates, psyker characters (oh the irony) and their immunity to fear, similar to the Sallies but different in a very good way.
As for the concept of footslogging, the only things that would want to do so are the Tyrants, Myrmidons (Destructors) and the UM's tyrant copies, given how they're relentless, highly resilient squad with tons of heavy weapons.
No other squad would gain anything from being exposed to artillery while totting regular infantry weapons anyway.
But yeah, it's fluffy to get your dudes killed, I guess.
Srsly, the DG being resilient is a myth, those are the IH. The DG are just dudes that took their vaccinations.
>>47609931
I don't really know. It's not certain that I'll join in the long run.
I have to complete university first, and after that I could potentially be an officer, particularly if my postgrad is in military history/theory, as it might be, though that might open up "consultant" jobs.
Else, if I have the time between completing my education and getting a job, I might be a reservist for as long as it doesn't distract me from my chosen career.
Always in motion, the future is.
>>47610005
DG are one of the legions better suited for footslogging, though as the other anon said, it might just be purely fluffy and not "crunchy".
Still, the DG is on the same tier as the Iron Warriors (and maybe) the Imperial Fists when it comes to footslogging. IIRC there's a Rite of War for traitors in Book 6 that gives all DG a cover save out in the open, so consider that perhaps.
As for Word Bearers, I have no idea, as I never considered them for myself (too much heresy desu).
As for the paint schemes, I have often wondered about the Death Guard. I imagine any bone colour would work well as a base, and they would nearly demand a lot of heavy weathering, which I have less experience with, though which GW makes some interesting "technical paints" for, including Typhus Corrosion.
Army Painter do a color primer in bone color, I believe, so you could get them done uniformly and quickly.
With regards to the WB, the shade of red is personal preference, though it is universally recognised as on the darker half of the spectrum compared to the Blood Angels. It can go past crimson up to maroon even.
I only painted a few CSM as word bearers, and I used Khorne Red for them, and it pleased me, though that was early in my career and a more deliberate scheme might be found online.
A guy whose paint schemes I've found simple and visually appealing is the Apathetic Fish, he's on Youtube. Good luck.
>>47610075
Eh, I asked about footslogging because I simply don't feel like buying vehicles. An infantry based list just sounds like something I'd want to do. Eh.
I still can't decide though.
What psy power schools can we use in 30k. I know the ones in the books, but can we use the new 4 from the new book?... Angels of death thingy.

Hmmm... Which legions were rivals?
I know Imperial Fists-Iron Warriors, Ultramarines-Word Bearers, Iron Hands-Emperor's Children, but I'm not sure about the rest.
I feel like getting two BaC boxes and either making two rival legions for a bit of a fluffy thing to introduce beginner's with, or just making a nicely sized starter army for myself.
>>47610529
So how does the movement work for it? If I throw sigismund and bros in the flying anus and it drops down turn one, how far can it fly, shit out sigs, and have them charge? I'm kinda new flyers.
>>47610605
The dreadclaw is a flyer with deep strike
You can either fly it on like any other flyer, but on turn 1 thanks to DPA
or
Deep strike it. Rules for deep striking flyers are in the red book
>>47610487
Progress so far.
What superheavy should I get for my EC?
>Lancer
>Atrapos
>Glaive
The atrapos is such a good model, but I feel the rules may be a bit too strong
>>47610738
Lancer.
Why would you pick anything else?
>>47610221
Hopefully not.
>>47610566
AL-UM, RG-WS, RG-SoH.
>>47610566
The Dangles and the Space Furries were friendly rivals, though the Space Wolves once faced off (pre-heresy) against the World Eaters, and basically had to call off their "we'll kill you all because the Emperor asked it" because the WEs were too eager for the fight.
Then there is the Thousand Sons fiasco, of course.
The only people recorded to have gotten under Alpharius' skin were the Ultramarines, who felt similarly about the Hydra, so that's another rivalry to consider there.
And this might be stretching it, but there was definitely a hatred on the part of Mortarion against the White Scars because of their advocacy of psykers, though whether the hatred was returned enough to be a "rivalry" (the Nikean council was pretty adversarial, IIRC) is something I don't know.
TLDR: Almost everyone has a pre-Heresy reason to hate everyone on the other side of the Heresy, everyone hates Space Wolves, and Magnus did nothing wrong.
>>47610487
>>47610695
Yikes, that's a decent challenge indeed.
I sincerely wish you the best of luck, because it's as if I can feel your exasperation and trepidation coming through in your posts.
It'll all be worth it in the end if you are fastidious and patient.
I've no experience with the specific model, but when it comes to posing, one thing I've heard (and had borne out by some limited experience) is that setting up the legs first (letting the glue dry and all) is the foundation (literally) on which the active pose of the model is set.
Warhammer TV has a video series about the plastic knight kit, watching that might be a good refresher about posing.
Good luck once again.

Jesus christ. Back to the drawing board, methinks.
>>47611039
Thanks. Right now I'm just putting together the various blocks, though all the plates are staying off so I can paint the skeleton by itself.
The legs are next and unlike the plastic knights the entire thing is modular. There's basically five chunks that need to be posed and it's too heavy for the blu tack I use.
>>47611121

I see no problem here.

>>47611526
I suppose we have novels and the like to answer that.
I'm no expert on the SA fluff, but if they're planet-based regiments and not migratory fleet-based regiments like some could have been during the great crusade, it's likely they'd return to being their planet's "expeditionary force", like Catachan, Krieg, Cadia, and the like, and so be just another part of the Astra Militarum.

Cerastus knights aren't that bad. The hardest part was figuring out what piece went where. After that, it was actually easier than a normal knight because there are fewer pieces, and since they're posable you can fiddle with them MUCH easier.

Okay so if I'm reading the rules right: a Dreadclaw can arrive turn one via Drop Pod Assault (but can mishap because I don't know), comes in as a flyer in hover mode like a fast skimmer so the turn it arrives it can then flat out 18 inches, after decimating nearby Iron Warriors and making all my jink saves, in turn 2 I can move 6 inches, poop out Sigismund 6 inches, and then charge that motherfucker at something equally expensive points-wise?
>>47613383
yes
i intend on doing this with angron and 9 red butchers in a kharybdis eventually, whenever i get around to buying the stupid thing.
>>47613425
One of the guys at my gamestore got a Kharybdis a few months ago. It is so fucking huge I couldn't believe it. I'll settle for a bootleg Dreadclaw for now.
>>47613466
yeah. ive heard they are both a pain in the ass to get to fit right..
also the prices are insane, even from china they are overcosted.
you could always convert a dreadclaw from regular pods though
>>47613528
that's exactly what I'm doing, some other anon inspired me yesterday and I'll be making my own on Monday. pretty excited.
Should I buy one or two BaC boxes?
How useful are Mhara Gal?
If I buy two boxes, should I make them both Word Bearers, or one as an other legion?
If I buy one box, what else should I get?
>>47611945
I don't know, I kind of want to kill myself right now. With an extra pair of hand it would have taken me five minute instead of over an hour.
The one time I built a FW contemptor I thought it was very nice but fiddly as hell, this time the same but many times crazier.
>>47610605
When hovering, flyers behave the same way as fast skimmers. Still, as with any other transport, the units can only disembark if the vehicle has moved at combat speed or less.
But you can flat out in the previous shooting phase as a fast skimmer, so it doesnt really matter,
>>47610643
On 30k all flyers can deepstrike without needing the rule itself, but zooming flyers are subject to the same restictions that all other units follow. As in "scattered into a unit? Ded".
>>47600001
I REALLY love that picture.
The Seraphim type wings (not hunched basically) and the helmet give him SO MUCH PRESENCE.
It's not even rocket science, a fully concealing helmet and wings as tall as him obviously make him look a lot cooler.
I really want all primarchs to wear helmets. Even with a fairly standard Beakie helmet Corax's model looks bloody awesome.

Any good guides to magnetizing the plastic Cataphractii? I was thinking about gluing the two shoulder components together then boring into the lower one to magnetize it, which should work fine but I'd like to see if there's any step-by-step guides covering this. Tried doing an online search but didn't come up with anything worthwhile, there's got to be something out there right?
>>47613984
you cant really magnetize them because of the shoulder pads. youd have to buy extra shoulder pads or something
>>47613861
>Vulkan, Lorgar, Alpharius, Leman, and Fulgrim's.
Vulkan's is the one we see on the ground in the cover of a novel?
Which one's Lorgar's? Never heard of it.
Alpharius it's his official portrait that has it so I know what he looks like.
Leman is the eternal wolf head thingy.
But Fulgrim's? Where can I see it?
>>47614027
Yeah I know, but people claim it's been done and I was intending to stick magnets in the shoulder pads, so it goes torso > arm > shoulder.
I might just be bullshitting though because I've been too busy with cannon fodder to get these big dudes done. I probably won't swap it around much anyway but nice to have the option to be a min-maxing faggot.
Does Omegon has any rules, and if not, are any planned at any time?
I'm thinking of starting a loyalist AL army following Omegon, fairly small but pimped out veterans.
On that note, does that that very general "fluff" sound okay to you guys? Too snowflakey?
>>47614198
I think it sounds fine to me.
If you want, you could just field Alpharius and claim to be loyalists if your friends/FLGS is okay with it.
>>47614198
He's Alpharius' twin, so much that not even Horus could tell them apart. It's safe to assume he'd have the same rulesThis account is a lie

Sounds fine. Unless your characters are mentioned as defeating named characters in ways they shouldn't or being integral to the heresy it is probably fine. You can have your super special chapter master who did this and that, but claiming he defeated Sigismund in a duel, outwitted Alpharius, or introduced Erebus to chaos is generally too far.
>>47614450
>outwitted Alpharius
Obviously it's because he himself was Alpharius!
>>47613890
If each blast takes 30 seconds to resolve completely, and nothing else is done in the game at all, it should take about 600 hours to play this out in a full game.
>>47614450
What about defeating Lucius?
I think NOT defeating him would be the issue
>>47614450
Naaah, I liked the idea of fairly no names goibg into small but decisive operations without being in the light.

>>47610489
No.
It would be justice
>>47610489
How would it make it useless? You only have a 1 in 3 chance of penetrating with each shot.
>>47615150
You roll two die per hit though. How is that only 1/3 chance. It's Ordnance after all.
>>47615399
Ah yeah, forgot about ordnance. Regardless it is still far from a guaranteed kill. Then again maybe it is my own one shot kill obsession. When I intend to deal with a specific threat I consider my capabilities insufficient unless I have a solid chance of killing it in a single turn of shooting or assaulting. May end up with wasted points but destroying a spartan turn 1 is great, and so is annihilating an entire deathstar the turn after that.
>>47615549
Venators don't have to kill, they have a special rule which forces snap shots from anything it penetrates
It, and to a lesser extent the Cerberus (due to random number of shots not making it worth 400 pts) are a giant fuck you to anyone bringing big nasty shooty LoW choises
>>47615682
This.
Snap firing instead of filling your battle line with pie plates, while costing a fuck ton of points, is as good as destroyed. Also let's you save your own firepower for his other shit
>>47615549
good luck destroying a fellblade in 1 turn. they have 12 hullpoints
>>47613626
I'd just get one box per legion (so, buy two and don't paint the other one yet). Use the next BaC-style box to fill out your army; other than the extra Cataphracti, it'd be a little dull to have a dual-BaC army. Lots of points without all the interesting units that HH has to offer.
>>47614925
He is though.
>>47615799
Ah, alright then! Sounds good to me. Do you know when they'll have such a box?
Also, reading up on the Mhara Gal rules, they seem really, really, really bad. And that makes me sad, considering I was thinking of maybe doing a Mhara Gal and Gal Vorbak heavy list later on.

>When I intend to deal with a specific threat I consider my capabilities insufficient unless I have a solid chance of killing it in a single turn of shooting or assaulting
I feel you. Seldom is anything sufficient. I'm doing a list of the good stuff.
Myrmidon Secutors with dual Graviton guns deepstriking in an Arvus Lighter, man.
Only the Warlord Titan is resistant to Haywire. Everything else dies to it, and a single Arvus can mean up to 12 haywire hits, but here's the thing:
The regular Flare Shielded Armoured Ceramite Spartan with a Dozer blade, costing 345 pts, dies to the base graviton Secutor squad in an Arvus, costing 295 pts.
Best of all? They'll survive interception because they're 2W T5 3+/5++, and they'll always be within range because they can disembark 6" and then shoot at 18", meaning you could place them 12" away from the target, hillariously scatter the full 12" to the other way and that Spartan is still ded, >>47615778
Oh, and the termies it was transporting? Probably a Cataphractii deathstar that can't run and now has to wade through dangerous and difficult terrain, so they won't catch you.
>>47616078
September, but it's only a rumor.
The Mhara Gal are overcosted, but they're not THAT bad.
>>47617856
Eh, I was exaggerating a bit there, but it's rule that harms Daemons, Psykers, and Blessed units really makes it not worth it in my eyes, as Gal Vorbak, Anakatis Kul Blade Slaves, other Daemons, and anyone using Burning Lore, etc. is just really bad.
And it's overcosted like you mentioned.
Which is a shame, as I love the model.

>>47621493
I would say Slaanesh. Loyalist EC are an interesting concept though. Politics wise I imagine they would be kind of a mix of the Dark Angels and Ultramarines. The adherence to doctrine and organization of the Ultramarines but still remaining largely united as a legion like the Dark Angels. I could easily see loyalist EC leading a crusade of dozens of successor chapters to crush the Tau empire and exterminate the humans who abandoned the Imperium to serve lesser beings.

Tons of T 5 wounds with 4++ saves.
>>47621789
Fulmentarus exist.
>>47621837
But with only half the range and inferior weapons.
I suppose they are good for moving up the field, but is that really what Deredeos are for, unless you give them the plasma?
It would be a hell of a tarpit, though.
Also, the biggest problem is that the increase in save only applies to shooting attacks, so they'd only have a 5++ save against shooting and melee. Still, it's to the standard of Terminators, and they have a ton of T5 wounds indeed, and are cheaper and occupy the troop slots.
If one wanted to go all-out, Phalanx Warders with plasma guns and a few axes buried within the unit would approach the 600pt cost of the Tyrants, though Breachers are indeed maxed out around 400 points.
>>47621871
Far more expensive, though, and no option for chainfists, not even coming with power fists as standard.
>>47616415
