CHAOS IS STRONG

Maybe at 9000 units
There's a lot of fun to be had in the game, but there are a few annoyances too.

>>336002028
Datz a noice ship youz got there, shame if some git hit da Red Button.
>>336002202
Yeah, planetary assault can be a bitch - its more luck than tactics to win at it.

Remember citizens - there is only one answer to chaos!

Pffft - threadly reminder that Eldar equipped their ships with tin foil armour.
>>336003138
>needing armor when you can just dodge
Armor's only for Imperialfags who can't into maneuvering.

Tell that to my Nova Cannon!
What's the best way to stop enemy ships warping out? I try targeting engines but often it does nothing.

I swear I get a hard on every-time I hear that charge up just as a eldar zooms past into my front arc at range

Don't autoset your lightning strike and just use it for warping ships.
If that doesn't work - Ramming tends to destroy them before they can jump
>Boarding is RNG
>biggest part of the game
What a mistake getting this game
As much as I really find the gameplay boring
This game got the fucking aesthetic perfect. The sound effects, the visuals, the voice overs and the fucking cutscenes are all so on-point.
>Battlefleet Gothic: Armada released one week ago, and its success was beyond our most optimistic expectations.
>Many of you voted to let us know which faction you would like to see in Battlefleet Gothic: Armada in the future. The Tau fleet received the largest number of votes. We’re therefore happy to announce that The Tau Fleet will be the second faction DLC offered to all Early Adopters (players who pre-ordered or purchased the game in an official retailer up to 2 months after release).
>Tyranids came second in the poll, and believe us, they won’t be left behind.
I know nothing about Tau spaceships, are they mecha ships like in my chinese cartoons?
Also how do Tyranid ships work, do they even have guns or spit acid or something?
>>336004618
they cant melee for starters
so no lightning strikes
>>336004316
>boarding
>biggest part of the game
The only mistake here is you thinking you're an intelligent being.
>>336003727
Generators. When destroyed the warping out time is drastically increased. The only way to actually stop it though is with a successful lighting strike or boarding assault or to simply destroy them.
>>336004803
>melee favor light cruiser
>lightning strike to generators
>ship with micro warp
>bridge gets fucked up
>eldar
>any subsystem
consecutive successful boardings can fuck up the game from start and its is luck based
>>336004618
Tyranid ships are living organisms, their guns will fire acids, poisons, and tyranids at the enemy
Will the other races get campaigns?
Imperial is cool and all but eldar look like fun

Ramming shit to death in this game is so satisfying.
>>336001932
HAHAHA how is that faggoty looking ship supposed to even ever land? Good luck shooting me when you're dead from trying to even come into my atmosphere! HAHAHAHA!
Is this game RTS or RTT? Looks pretty cool, but if there isn't resource collection then I don't think it's my cup of tea.
>>336006017
Do you not understand what Orbital Bombardment is anon?
>>336006017
Landing is for people without planet-destroying exterminatus cannons
>>336006080
There's no resource collection, but the campaign has plenty of macro level management between missions. It's a little like xcom?
How come the Commissar doesn't have a lot more lines, he's GOAT.
>>336006017
>faggoty looking ship
>Not having a MOITHERFUCKING CATHEDRAL on your ship
It's like you want to be heretical, anon
>>336004618
>Also how do Tyranid ships work
They eat your fucking face even in space.
>>336005551
>All the missiles.
I'm hyped.
Does the Taunt skill break warp sequences? I'm sick of these Chaos faggots stealing my data and warping out before I can even turn around.
>>336006431
I believe so.
guys I feel like the imperial navi is really fucking shitty (or I am really fucking shitty, I can believe this).
chaos outranges me
orks outarmors me and rams and boards better
eldars outdps and outmaneuvers me
am i doing it wrong?
>>336006908
>chaos outranges me
Keep close together and use boarding actions (not LS) to knock out engines while focusing on one at a time - Slow heretic = dead heretic.
>orks outarmors me and rams and boards better
Still working on how to beat orks
>eldars outdps and outmaneuvers me
Escorts - lots and lots of swords, also run into gas clouds - they need get close to you to fight then.
If all else fails - there is the nova cannon.
Also don't forget to auto set your skills at the start of the match
>>336005551
Hells yeah
>>336006908
are you talking about the campaign or multiplayer?
I'm playing the campaign and I've yet to meet a situation I couldn't solve by hitting Brace for Impact, going to ramming speed, making a hole in them with torpedos and then filling said hole with my ship's prow.
>fighting nemesis in cruiser clash
>down to 2 light cruisers vs nemesis
>ten minutes of trading shield restoration skills later, finally come out on top
Jesus
Why is it so hard to break nemesis ships' generators? Any tips? I had gens prioritized and still broke all his weapons first

sum the first mission with eldar as ally
>>336006017
>supposed to even ever land?
They're not.
However they do have fighter craft, bomber, transport, telepotarium, heavy ordnance and Exterminatus munitions.
>>336011530
>early on, try a mission alongside the spess mahreens
>they field a single cruiser
>they drive their cruiser straight through a massive asteroid field before even approaching the enemy
>explodes
why
>>336006431
You can use it to prevent the warp out skill to be used but it has no effect if the ship is already preparing to warp.

Breakthrough is REALLY hard with an ally because the enemt usually outnumber you and the AI is retarded.
Use 2 light cruiser and escort and focus the 4 targets. Stasis bomb and mechanicus favor are recommended. Ignore everyone.
>the next fleet only has Battle Barges and Strike Cruisers
>the other fleet are meme railgun and missile ships
wowitsfuckingnothing.jpg
I found the campain to bea really enjoyable and it catches the 40k feel.
The multiplayer on the other hand is boring. Spending 20 minutes chasing Chaos as Ork and recieve 56 renown when the battle is over.

Is BFG worth the $40 price tag? I'm seeing a lot of threads about it, but that's not really the best measure of how good a game is.

Exactly. Macross Missile Massacre personified.

>Is BFG worth the $40 price tag? I'm seeing a lot of threads about it, but that's not really the best measure of how good a game is.
Worth the $40? I can't really say, I found it good, but there are some bugs - I'd wait until they patch it before buying
Is there anything more satisfying than ramming Eldar?
>>336016850
Yes. Ramming the next Eldar ship.
I wish the Commissar would have narrated the entire campaign.
>>336017467
The voices and dialogues in this game are so spot on. The Gunner and Servitors have such an awesome and clean voice even with filters.
>play as eldar
