Arven posted:How cheap could scouts reasonably get, though? Lost patrol didn't drive the prices of scouts or genestealers down at all. Anybody who was buying Lost Patrol was doing so for the game, not for the components. With this, I can see a lot of people buying the game for the terrain and the rules and ditching the models.

I've got a metal vostroyan squad, so I'm going to direct order the sniper blister and that's 1000 points. Guard can have up to 3 heavies in their 10 man squad.

It's surprising that it's taken this long because this is the perfect way to get me to buy stuff. So many awesome little projects in mind that would be too expensive or too much work on an army wide level.

Grots I think, 3pts a piece. Only thing that comes close to that is 30k's Tech Thralls, also 3pts each.

A regular Militia model is 2.5 points.

I only know because I am currently in the process of painting 250guys to make up 500pts of my cult army. The idea of that many bodies for that few points is pretty intoxicating but it it a lot of loving painting, even when just base coating everything.

MWG has a couple Shadow War games posted. Run time is ~30 minutes, which even after all the stuff they cut bodes pretty well for how quick this will be to play.

I've spent today down at my FLGS scoping out the Shadow War rules. I am really excited about this release and have been pricing out a scout squad. 1000 gets you 6 whole models. A basic scout starts at 100 points without weapons and the sergeant is 200. I know it's Necromunda and I don't care. I love Necromunda. I am so down for this.

They also have Ld 5 (but get the runtherd), while the renegade militia have D6+4 (rolled for every unit). The militia get lasguns though, which I guess are slightly better than the grot guns?

I'm slightly salty about using Cadian rules to proxy my Armageddon Steel Legion on Armageddon, but this is just the new plastic normal. gently caress I'm excited about this game.

Safety Factor posted:Guardsmen don't have access to heavy weapons, but their specialists can take a wide range of poo poo. Sniper rifle (40), flamer (40), demo charge (50), plasma gun (80), meltagun (95), heavy flamer (100), or a grenade launcher (85 with frag, 100 with krak, 125 with both). Lame. I wanted to take a heavy bolter from the scout sprue I have. Thank you, though!

 The muscle table owns, by the way. Guys can headbutt fools and toss idiots off of ledges. I really want to make a Catachan kill team now.  . Weirdly, space marines have very limited access to muscle. Only Salamanders troopers and leaders and Space Wolf leaders can get it.

I am glad Shadow War is out. Now I have a use for that Chaos side of Dark Vengeance I was never going to use. Built a 1000 point force earlier today. 3 CSM, 6 cultists. 990 points. Excited to try it out!

Does Cadia getting blown up mean big changes coming for the Imperial Guard range? I mean a lot of the plastic sets have Cadian in their name.

Unlikely. Cadian pattern is the standard ubiquitous gear for the Imperial Guard.

Those sets say Cadians but basically it means "vanilla guard" as opposed to special kits like catachans. Maybe that'll change the boxes so they just say "Astra Militarum" but the kits probably won't change. And Cadians are still around because reasons, so even if Cadia is gone... eh.
