Pacific North West goons: I'm travelling to Portland and Seattle in a few days from Australia, and need to buy a bunch of 40K stuff because, well, cheap. Are there any good independent stockists in Oregon that you can recommend for me to buy from? Cheers

Lootas put out enough weight offire, at long enough range, and with good enough weapons that they can put the hurt on flyers.

Just got out of a casual 1500 tournament, went 3-0 with Primaris: Captain, Lieutenant, Librarian, Apothecary, Ancient, two units of Intercessors, unit of Hellblasters and a Repulsor. loving Hellblasters are worth their weight in /gold/.

If it's T6 or less that's about 3 1/3 armor saves, a T7 stormhawk or stormraven is 2 1/2 armor saves. And it's only AP-1.

A green tide flying up on rocket packs and mass careening into a ship until they bring it down with wild swings is the Orkiest thing I can imagine.

panascope posted:Guardian Games is basically the go-to in Portland. Guardian Games will likely have what he's looking for in stock. They keep a huge amount of models on shelf. If you know exactly what you want and have a week's notice you can contact some of the smaller shops and have them order the models for you. Some places will offer up to 20-25% off of retail in those cases. Mythic Realms in Vancouver and Red Castle Games in Portland come to mind. koreban fucked around with this message at 03:30 on Aug 13, 2017 |

Do the Strategems that reference Vindicators, Predators, Whirlwinds, etc, work on all variants of that unit? Like, can you use Linebreaker with 3 Vindicator Laser Destroyers, or Datalink Telemetry with a Whirlwind Scorpius?

jadarx posted:I'm not really refusing to use flyers. I just don't think they fit the scale of the game and would prefer not to run them. But that ship has long since sailed it seems. Could you run a contemptor mortis or deredeo? Those do well against fliers if you can take them in 40k. There's also the hellblade.

I think it runs off the keyword, so if they have PREDATOR as a keyword or something then yes.

As exciting as a new Necromunda sounds, I figure it'll just be another boxed set, done-in-one game. I'm skeptical that GW will put out figures for all the gangs, but I guess anything can happen in this crazy new world

I bet it will be like Bloodbowl. They'll make the base game and maybe an extra gang or two. Then leave the rest up to Forge World.

Also explains that Rumour Mill, Escher lady with the sword's holding that laspistol. Dittoing the hope it's compatible with Shadow War for some hilarious matchups.
