Ahhh okay. Seeing what you guys said, then I got:

Company Command Squad - 194 points
-Boltgun for Company Commander
-Astropath
-Master of Ordinance
-Officer of the Fleet
-Plasma Guns for two Veterans
-Medi-pack for one Veteran
-Regimental Standard for fourth Veteran
-All Veterans have Carapace Armor

2 Commissars - 26 x 2 = 52 points
-Boltgun

Primaris Psyker - 75 points
Psyker Master Level 2

1 Ministorum Priest - 25 points
-Autogun

---Troops---

Infantry Platoon

Platoon Command Squad - 71 points
-Boltgun for Commander
-Flamer
-Heavy Flamer
-Medi-pack
-Platoon Standard

3x Infantry Squads - 56 x3 = 168 points
-Boltgun for Sergeant
-Flamers for two squads
-Grenade launcher for one squad

3x Heavy Weapon Squads - 75 + 105 + 120 = 300 points
-First squad has Autocannon
-Second squad has Lascannon
-Third squad has Missile launcher with Flakk Missiles upgrade

Special Weapons Squad - 60 points
-All three possible weapon upgrades are meltaguns

Vets

2x Veteran Squads - 120 x 2 = 240 points
-Plasma guns
-Carapace armor

---Elites---

Militarum Tempestus Platoon

3x 4 Militarum Tempestus Scions with Tempestor - 100 x 3 = 300 points
-Plasma guns for two Scions per unit

Comes out to 1485 points.

Still wondering if I should just have almost 7 Chimeras, or 2 Leman Russ' + Enginseer with a Servitor + 1 Chimera to go along with this making it a 2000 point army.

>Again, I'm just wondering where you're going to put them.
1 Commissar for Infantry Platoon
1 Commissar for the first Veteran Squad
1 Priest for the second Veteran Squad
1 Psyker for the Militarum Tempestus Platoon

>>43627857
Scions? Oh right, those are what they're calling Stormtroopers these days.

Also... Did they remove the opportunity for Grenadier vets with Carapace armor?

>>43627883
Is that a thing that we can make now?
>>
>>43627892
You mean the guy who got chased away by the slavshitposter?
>>
>>43627926
Nope. Vets can still upgrade to Grenadiers or the other ones.
>>
>>43627926
Make them by combining stormtroopers and D-99.
>>
>>43627817
You're going to want at least one chimera for your special weapon squad. other than that don't plan so far ahead and feel like you need to buy all these scions and stuff.
Don't forget your command squad can't move and call down a basilisk shot (without gaining relentless from warlord traits/psyker fuckery) if you want to get in with the plasma guns.

Once you get your first models you should play test it to get a feel for what you want/need.
>>
>>43627933
Cool. Why would I go for Demo vets instead, if focusing on a small, elite army?

>>43627951
Aren't Elysians FW-exclusive models?
>>
>>43627929
Carnac was the one being subjected to the "proofs?" Chicken. The guy just gave up. Carnac won't, cause he's too autistic.

Eventually enough people on /tg/ will be willing to demand him gone and Hiro might do it. Who knows.

>>43627822
Temp Scions. Those dudes from Anphilion Project (dunno how that works as they all died...). Those Elite DKoK guys? Those Elite Elysians from Taros Campaign? There is also that other IA book with the Raven Guard, had elite Elysians too. Marbo.
>>
>>43627977
There's nothing stopping you from using their rules with other miniatures.
>>
>>43627977
I didn't suggest demo vets, but maybe it's cause demo charges are powerful and can fuck stuff up? I'm not sure.
>>
>>43627990
No, you mistaking the Chicken little guy with the /pol/ chicken guy.
>>
>>43627991
Oh, right. Of course For some reason I assumed >>43627951 was talking about kitbashing them.

Anyone got a D-99 PDF or something hanging around?

Not gonna lie, I'm really tempted to model a bunch of special characters off of Valkyria Chronicles for shits and giggles. Also because RPG Lances sound like an Imperial thing to do, honestly.
>>
Help me /tg/ I want to make a semi-competitive list built mainly on vanilla Ogryn's.

I don't mind if everything else has to be horrendous cheese, including FW stuff. I just want it to be viable whilst having my main force be Ogre.
>>
I know this is mostly unrelated to 40k discussion and I apologise in advance, but is the GW online store prone to fucking things up?

I preordered Calth last week and received an email yesterday saying my order was on its way. I also however just got my credit card statement and the charge from GW had been reversed.
>>
>>43627951
Okay. As an Imperial Guard player who's been moonlighting as a Dark Eldar player recently, the idea of D-99 is fucking EPIC.

Again, does anyone have a rules PDF for them? Or know where I can find said rules?
>>
>>43628110
Kind of, if they properly fuck up you can take advantage of it pretty easily though.

I had one of my orders deliver my local GW even though I paid for postage to my house for some reason.

It didn't arrive for over a week so I contacted support and they sent me another one and then I just picked up the one from the shop so I got 2 for free.

Just contact customer services and complain and as long as you bought it from their website they'll probably send you one ASAP.
>>
>>43628108
Not possible.
>>
>>43628152
in the OP, Imperial armour 4 2nd edition
>>
>>43628200
To clarify, it looks like they did send it but they also gave me a full refund.

I guess i'll wait it out and see if it actually arrives then go from there.
>>
>>43628108
Must it be Ogryns or are Bullgryn's fair game too? Also when you say main force, do you mean main force as in Primary Detachment must have Ogryns or are you saying you just want more Ogryns than everything else in your list? Finally, just how competitive we talking about here? If this is just for use at the local meta, could you give us a rundown of your local meta?
>>
>>43628237
Really? Not even with Servin Loth & other FW shinnanegans?
>>
>>43628108
Ogryns only? as in just the kind with the short range cannon? Does it matter if they are mixed?

Basically you want ogryns with brute shields and maul, deadly in melee vs anything that doesn't have a 2+ save because of how many high strength attacks.
Add a priest to each squad to keep them moving and give them re-rolls in melee
The rest of your force is veterans in chimeras with dual plasma guns.
You'll need some anti-tank, so a few vanquishner russes with a lascannon will do well, you can make them your HQ, in which case I suggest taking 2 teams of 2-3 tanks total.
You can also have a unit of ogryn with the shields that boost cover saves, then give your tanks camo netting and move up together using them as a shield.
Basically all the guard do is kill tanks and 2+ save things, while the ogryn beat on stuff with their weapons.

Would actually work very well overall, just not against top tier super meta WAAC faggots. You shouldn't play them anyway.

>>43628237
Don't listen to this fool

>>43628296
He never said, though if he really wanted to I think there is some ogryn renegades he could use in a chaos army.

>>43628321
It's possible, I never included invisa spam or anything in the above idea because it's really not worth it, you want the opponent to waste shots on the guys with brute shields.
>>
>>43628321
>>43628108
I should note that I just though about it and instead of doing as ogryns, you could run them as a psudo-terminator force if you just wanted to use the models. Dark angels or something, storm bolters, assault cannons and what have you. Would be cool.
>>
Any news on any 40k vidya games? DoW 3? The Battlefleet Gothic game? Why do I find myself sort of more hyped for the latter than DoW 3? Because maybe using gigantic cathedrals to fight space battles sounds more awesome?
>>
>>43628429
There's actually a 40K MMO in the works. Eternal Crusade, look it up. I don't read their emails so I have no clue how it's doing though.

>Super weapon that'll totally change the fate of the galaxy
Nothing unusual. Everybody get back to spraying daemon repellent, saying no to Word Bears, and bashing Nid skulls in.
>I'll never get a game that stars Impguard will I?
There a lot of things that can kill guardsmen easily, so the game would have to be featuring low to mid tier threats. I'm waiting for Commissar Stimulator/Simmulator. We already have Ork Simmulator/Stimulator if you picture yourself as Ork while playing Besiged.

That's pretty much what I had in mind. Depending on points level I thought it would be funny to get ally in a land raider crusader. Then I remember the bullgryns are very bulky so probably not the best of ideas. However, Double CAD for the Guard, five squads of bullgryns, flesh tearer detachment for 6 drop pods. Could be even funnier

>I'm not too sure it'll be a success. McNeill wrote the plot if I remember correctly so what happens is anyone's guess. Wait.
Not that guy, but I'm looking forward for eternal crusade: I don't care about the gameplay nor the story much though, the idea of running around as an ork smashing tyranids skulls and eldar asses with flashy weapons is enough of a win situation for me, not enough to preorder, but still.

It's not an MMO anymore. It's a massed shooter. Feels like a Space marine/Battlefield mix. Fairly fun, if I'm being honest.
All the chaos marines sound like Immortan Joe, so that's a definite plus.

Hey /tg/, posted in the last thread about making a warband badge for a renegade space marine chapter, theme: tzeentchian conspiracy theorist marines driven insane by the whispers of a daemon prince, who now terrorize the galaxy in the name of crazy numerology/sacred geometry bullshit only they understand.

I've narrowed it down to 4 designs, right now I'm heavily leaning toward B as it looks kinda like the US dollar pyramid which is often associated with conspiracies. Also keep in mind that 1) I'm making these decals myself on white decal paper so it has to be a simple shape I can cut like a triangle and 2) this decal with be on an orange pauldron (overall power armor scheme is blue/orange with silver highlights).

Which people don't get. It's to represent the last stand of the Deathwing, you know, the whole basis they were created.

>bit repetitive gameplay

As opposed to what game? Vermintide is repetitive too... CoD is repetitive... Dark Souls is repetitive. What game ISN'T?

Lack of news is a good point thou. It's shocking nothing has come out about it since the shitty quality recording.

>>43628851
There are other 40k games announced, but iOS. Like Freeblade, which is essentially 40k Mech combat.

DoW3 is probably going to be announced at E3 next year. They re-registered the domain name a few months ago, and recently released new maps for DoW1 and DoW2... and SEGA put out a Jew Priced DLC for DoW2 as well which was MORE GORE.

Yes, you keep all that stuff in reserve, use augur arrays on your ground vehicles, put them behind an aegis line and give it a comms relay. Turn 2 everything arrives and you light the sky on fire.
You can also take that FW guard flyier with the twin linked punisher cannon and stuff.

>>43628892
They are elite slot guys, you can have 3 units without needing an extra detachment. I don't really think you need more than 2 desu

With blood angels?
Alright, so you take blood angel dreads. HQ is libby dread, any other dreads as you see fit. They get pods as well.

With orgyn and dreads, you should be able to mop up pretty easily, especially if you took veterans and CCS with plasma/melta and such. Basically all drop pods, no marines (maybe some scouts, who knows, counts as veterans with carpace or something)

>>43628296
>>43628343
By Mostly Ogryn's I mean I want at least 2 squads of 6 Vanilla Ogryn's and possibly a Bullgryn squad. I'm in the process of converting Ogre kingdoms into Ogryn's in a not-shit way (resculpting the arms so they can carry their guns in both hands) and I'm in love with the models.

I'm not too concerned with making an Ogre Deathstar and buffing them to shit, I'd just like it if they could be the main ground-troops of my army and stomp any enemy infantry in the face.

>>43628296
Not neccesary primary detatchment, probably just 1 AM CAD and 3 squads of 6 Ogryn in a 1850 point list.

Definitely want it to be imperium as well because the Renegades and heretics Ogryn are pretty shit.

Ogryn are strong enough to carry them with one hand, only problem then is they might drop the gun as they shoot.

70 points total

You must be the shittiest player in the shittiest region to have someone fielding a guard blob army be a threat/asshat. Find a new hobby or kill yourself.

exactly, so if you want them to look like they'll actually use their guns you have to reposition the arms.

Okay, that leaves me with 1919 points. Will probs give a Vet Sarge a boltgun to make it an even 1920. What should I spend the last 80 points on? A Tempestus Scion Squad with a 10 point weapon?

I go against a small group, one person uses khorne daemonkin with a LoS and another who plays tau with two riptides but has zero markerlights so I have it pretty easy. Now I'm super hyped for the ia14.

>>43630092
As dumb as it sounds I read lore on 1d4chan for bulk, however there are more than enough 40k wikis out there and most all say different things so they can be good sources too. In the OP post you can also find the older Dark Angels codexs and they'll have lore that was left out in newer updates unfortunately as they need room for model pictures

They made a huge diorama with ultra's vs. daemon and made a book for it. I'd be surprised if they made a massive Tau vs Admech diorama just for shits.
>>
>>43630186
What diorama?
>>
>>43630092

Also if I understand the lore corret does no one but the Watchers of the Dark and the Chapter Master know that Lion is in the Rock?

The inner circle knows about Luther though right?

Are they really chasing Cypher just for the sword?

How well would it fit my Ravenwing Soul Drinker's fluff to give my friends KDK's gorepack's Juggerlord a sword on his back

Well out of troops only pink horrors and plaguebearers will do well vs blobguard.

Tzeentch phsycic powers all do pretty well.

GUO's can't be hurt my lasgun fire.

Skull cannons will probably come in handy if you have any.

With big expensive MC's you have to be careful as with 'Bring it Down!' and prescience even regular guardsmen can do shitloads of damage.

IIRC gives them monster hunter. I think you can combine it with 1st rank 2nd rank fire, so 20 guardsmen would be able to fire 60 Lasgun shots that reroll to wound on MC's.

Ofcourse GUO's don't give a shit about this anyway though as they can't be wounded.

FMC's won't care much for it either, as long as they are in the air.
>>
>>43630212
I'm not sure on how many know that the Lion is there, but it's not more than a handful and no one knows exactly where he is but the watchers.

Yeah the inner circle knows about the betrayal.

They're hunting down cypher because he's fallen and was really fucking important, everything else is secondary. Surely they do want the blade back though.

What even is the fluff you've came up with? I thought you were just running ravenwing under a different name and scheme. Other than that implying the lord is cypher is dumb.
>>
>>43630324
Ok I shall send a bloodthirster at it. Perfect plan.

They're not. They are literally the shittest option you could take vs Guard. They are T3 so they can be murdered by lasgun fire and you don't need AP3 if Guardsmen only have flakk armour.

They have both the ordinatus and the warlord there. I don't understand how they could lose. Hell, the Warlord on its own could probably solo everything there. The thing is fucking insane.

>>
>>43630947
Really? I guess since the internet didn't tell you the powers were good you can't think for yourself

When it comes to killing hordes of things, pyro is king.
First you get a heavy flamer that also lights things on fire. A primaris psyker with a heavy flamer isn't bad.
Second, fire shield makes all terrain around you dangerous to your enemies. Great for slowing down their charge and possibly causing wounds for free.
With luck, spontaneous combustion can kill a specfic attached 1 wound IC, otherwise it's just gonna add more damage which is good.
Sunburst used with 2-3+ units in range will destroy them with ease
Inferno turns the psyker into a whirlwind, which is great for the points
For hilarites sake, molten beam can be used to kill 5 dudes pretty easily and maybe insta deaths stuff.

Read the book already, telepathy, divination and biomancy aren't the only powers.

>>43631038
I don't really like the astropath, master of ordnance and officer of the fleet in there. It's not needed really. Also you don't need the standard, it's rules are meh.
All chimeras should never take hunter killers, as a rule. Don't pay for searchlights unless you have extra points
You mean plasma guns for 2-3 guys in the squad, right? If so, then that's fine.

Toss some melta guns on the scions with the points you free up, they will help a lot.

Otherwise it looks fine, I don't see your ogryns yet btw.

Titans are just for when the shop decides they're gonna have a "bring whatever the fuck you want" game, if you're putting a titan on the table points don't really matter. Giving them points values at that level is just a formality for the most part because games that large are such enormous clusterfucks that any facade of tactics or depth is thrown out the window and the entire event is literally just a crowd of assburgers yelling over each other and yelling dice.

At least this has been my experience with giant apocalypse games, I guess a game with just two guys bringing an assload of points may differ. Not saying it wasn't a fun deviation but apoc sorta stretches what you could call a "game".

Legal technically I think. Infantry needs no vehicle or cover since they have a Titan for that. Give titan firing support while Titan proceeds to wreck everything. Granted it's not the largest titan, but second largest is still pretty cool.
>>
>>43630654
>6 Tau'nar
Yeah they still aren't gonna make it with just that, the warlord alone have 6 void shields and a 5+ from reinforced structure, and with an arch magos and the rod relic he can potentially restore 6 hull points in that turn, while in the admech will shoot everything else to hell.
>>
>>43632345

Imperial Reaver Titan and Eldar Revenant Titan lists which feature just one Lord of War and some random extra crap are viable. This is why those titans are banned from most GTs.
>>
>>43632345
Well attempting to remember their profile of the top of my head they get like 8~ melee attacks with a str D weapon a turn.
8 attacks * 10 models * 4/6 chance to hit * 1/6 get a 6 result which is 6+d6 un-savable HPs which we will average to 6+3.5.
This comes out to about 84.44 HPs in un-savable wounds.

Meanwhile you have another

8 * 10 * 4/6 * 4/6 wounds that do d3 savable HPs which we will average to 2.
This comes out to about 71.11 savable wounds which if we assume he has some way to get a 4++ will be 35.5 HPs gone in a turn.

This means assuming the titan has a 4++ in melee a single BT will do about 11.99 HPs a turn and a titan has about 40~ HPs so if 4 BTs make it into melee in a single turn they kill the titan, or 2 BTs over 2 turns, or 1 BT over 4 turns which is really in the BTs favor.

You don't really need recovery gear, also the priest doesn't seem useful, you don't have any melee squads. Hell the commisar doesn't seem very useful either. I might suggest taking a lord commisar instead, or nothing.

Split the tempest guys into 2 squads of 5 with 2 melta guns each.

Also split the vendettas into 3 squads of 2, much better for saturation

Oddly you lack good anti-infantry shots, maybe swap 2 of the vendettas for valkyries?

Also you might like the siege drills that guard can take, while the aircraft arrives from the sky, from below more veterans with more drills and guns!

-The Warlord Titan is completely immune to the effects of Haywire attacks, dangerous terrain, and psychic attacks other than Witchfire powers, which must attempt to damage it normally.
-The Warlord Titan's Stomp attacks use the Large Blast (6") template.
-The Warlord Titan's carapace-mounted weapons may not target models closer than 24" from its hull, unless they are Flyers, Flying Monstrous Creatures or other Super-heavy vehicles or Gargantuan Monstrous Creatures.

Reinforced Structure

-The Warlord Titan has an invulnerable save of 5+ against any attacks that have breached its void shields.

World Burner

-The Warlord Titan may use any of its Blast marker weapons to target areas of the battlefield, rather than enemy units if it wishes, including buildings and ruins, etc.

The thing also has 8 weapons and this is shoothammer right now, so good luck having those things come in untouched against a Titan

It's funny because the destroyer missile is more efficient than the cannon but you could have just given sky-rays racks of destroyer missiles.

The only reason to have the pulse cannons on the ballistic suit instead of say, that nice hammerhead tank over there, is so you can stabilize yourself with those stupid anchors.

What did you guys expect after escalation made apoc 40k legal.
Pic related were kit bash units in the old apoc books now they are a kit GW sells.
Oh and 75% of all current formations are minor reworks of the old apoc formations, only with better bonuses, and you don't have to pay additional points for the formations.

I thought maybe it might have been worth taking the Priest and Commissar for the two vet squads but I guess they really aren't necessary since nobody in the army's tryna go for up close damage. I took the Searchlights and Recovery Gear cuz I had a few extra points left over.

>Split the tempest guys into 2 squads of 5 with 2 melta guns each.
Possibly affordable now that I am removing more points cuz of no priest and commissar I'll try it out

>Also split the vendettas into 3 squads of 2, much better for saturation
Good idea thanks.

>Oddly you lack good anti-infantry shots, maybe swap 2 of the vendettas for valkyries?
Nah I'll just give a couple of the Vendettas rockets instead of lascannons it's free and effective.

>Also you might like the siege drills that guard can take, while the aircraft arrives from the sky, from below more veterans with more drills and guns!

How do these work? Points and everything.

I like the Fallout franchise (well, haven't played 4 and I'm hearing bad things now actually) but that has to be the dumbest catchphrase ever. War is literally the process of violent change, and every military ever teaches soldiers that war is constantly changing and that you must adapt to an always evolving battlefield.

Screw Khorne. I've had enough of him anyway. Too much Khorne stuff these days. I'm honestly thinking that all of the genius names for Khornate stuff in AoS is Khorne's idea in-universe. There better be no Khorne in DoW 3. Give the others more spotlight.

Hey guys, getting my friend who used to play Orks back in 5e into 40k again.

We were looking through the models he has and short of a battle wagon and and assuming he can use his old trukks:

HQ:

Warboss - Bosspole, Eavy Armour, Power Klaw and Shoota - 69pts

TROOPS:

14 Shoota Boyz + Nob with Boss Pole, Power Klaw and Shoota + Trukk - 174

13 Shoota Boyz + Nob with Boss Pole, Power Klaw and Shoota + Trukk - 167

10 gretchin + Runtherd - 35

ELITES:

10x Burna Boyz

FAST ATTACK:

Deffkopta - 30

Deffkopta - 30

HEAVY SUPPORT:

Battlewagon - 110

15 Lootas - 210

TOTAL: 985

He is looking for a minimum investment to see if he really wants to play again and all he needs for the list above is the Battlewagon like I said.

The Warboss rides in a trukk with the boyz

The 10 burnaz will embark on the Battlewagon

He could split the Lootas and get one more and end up at 999.

How does this look for 1000 though.

I am the returning Dark Angel player with the KDK friend so he will be playing with Necrons, Tyranids, Space Wolves and Ultramarines.

...i'm not sure how i feel about firewarriors paying more homage to khorne then berserkers

>>43633071
khorne and nurgle are easy as fuck to make, tzeentch and slaanesh? kinda hard. hell tzeentch didn't get any end times kits and he doesn't have a unit in warriors of chaos. tzeentch did get to be in warhammer online ironic that khorne is easier then slaanesh.

>>43633253
honestly it's all the imperfections that make it enjoyable, like syfy original movies.
>>
>>43633017
The point is not that technology and technique changes, but the ideology and wants behind war remain the same. Even after everything is nuked to shit the survivors fight each other with sticks and stones for supplies and territory, just like before the nukes.
>>
>>43630525
Anon, I don't think you understand.
Those are titans. In fact I'm pretty sure the biggest one is an emperor class titan.

They give not one single fuck about your fluff. They do what they want, and nobody is going to stop them, not even GW writers. They're just that badass
>>
>>43633306
Pretty decent list there. He probably should split the lootas up as you said though.

Let me post the freakiest 40k artwork I've seen. It's well drawn, but I for one am glad that the Mechcanics has lost the chainsaw face STC. The quote down there is something I like though. To be human is to carry on the works of your ancestors, and to die knowing that your work will be past down to a new generation. The show must go on is probably one of the Imperium's core ideologies. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=t99KH0TR-J4

It is a fairly basic 1000 ork list.

Those Deffkoptas are completely useless they could each be two more lootas so you can go 10/10.

Burnawagons are a fun thing.

Those trukks will be easily popped and the boyz wont last long. If you absolutely want to run them in trukksI would give them heavy armor or whatever.

Could drop the Deffkoptas and gretchin for that.

He may want to pick up 10 Tank Bustas and change them out with the Burnas when appropriate.

Okay here is it redone assuming 6 voidshields and that I correct in that voidshields don't get the 5++.

Pre-void shield collapse
8 * 1/6 * 1/6 * 9.5 = 2.11
8 * 1/6 * 4/6 * 2 = 1.77
3.88 HPs per BT per melee

post voidshield collapse
8 * 1/6 * 1/6 * 9.5 = 2.11
8 * 1/6 * 4/6 * 2 * 4/6 = 1.18
3.29 HPs per BT per melee

With 35~ HPs and 6~ Voidshields you are looking at 12~ BT melee rounds to kill.

As for his titan weapons I know most (old) titan weapons had a minimum effective firing range that they couldn't shoot at models within so even if he doesn't get locked in melee he wouldn't be able to shoot most of them anyway.
>>
>>43633611
>shit advice: the post
>>
>>43633731
That would make it hella better, but 12' movement/ stomps might make it a bit too good imo
>>
>>43633723

Oh man how did we overlook that!

I must have been dyslexic with my 2s and 5s....


back to the drawing board.

>>43633611

I could see more lootas being good. Going to have a bunch of points since i have to lower the boy mobs to 12 and 11 which is going to be not good.

>>43633756

I could see what he means by there just being two.
>>
>>43633809
Stomps outside of a 6 are pretty bad, and 12" movement sounds like a needed buff on that thing.
>>
>>43633702
agreed, I think it would be damn near fixed if it had tracks instead of those legs
>>
>>43633823
If you're not taking any other FA units then deffkoptas are great for harassing. Cheap wee fuckers that annoy the back lines and take pops at back armour, eat overwatch and just generally cause a nuisance that with jink, T5 and two wounds the git can be difficult to put down without dedicating some actual firepower towards it. Two of them outflanking would be excellent.

You retard. Guard infantry with librarius conclave is stupidly powerful. Ever been shot by 150 rending guardsmen that ignore cover?
>>
>>43634474
Your right. With that much lasgun fire, any enemy model will probably die from skin cancer 15 years later.
>>
>>43634474
What gives them rending?
>>
>>43634541

Spess magic
>>
>>43634541

Misfortune, I think. Not really worth wasting Librarius charges buffing a FRFSRF blob other than Ignore Cover though. Plus it will be hard to damage tough Invisible targets.

If you're going to play the "stacking buffs on a deathstar" game, there's way more dangerous and strong shit than guardsmen that completely ignore all that fire. Even plain old Decurions can muscle through those shots.
