Kraken Thornbacks are hilarious because every round they can disengage from combat and get another D3 Mortal Wounds from another charge

And I should've said, the Start Collecting box (Trygon, Broodlord, 8 Genestealers) and a box of Genestealers and a box of Gargoyles were "Hanukkah gifts" from my friends (aka bribes to get me to play with them).

I'm having a bit of trouble manipulating it since I am awful with Excel, or simply because my work computer is hating on me. Should it be as simple as substituting values in place of the current ones for any weapon/unit variants we are curious about, because I can't seem to get anywhere. I am trying to get an idea of what is the most points efficient anti-vehicle setup for Marines.

Fair enough. I'm sure some people have enough cards to get that much but it seemed like a lot. Your post reminds me to I need to pick up another Carnifex so I can make Old One Eye and fix the MST on my other Screamer-Killer my son broke by throwing it.

Lascannons just come out as to expensive or to delicate on almost anything I take, or are to easily tied up in the case of vehicles. You're right on all counts, but stuff like a lascannon mortis contemptor being 16 more points than a las predator is exactly the sort of thing that makes me avoid forge world stuff on account of it being flagrant bullshit a lot of the time. But then I'm not playing in a tournament setting or mindset so I can get away with that.

Is Shrike worth taking in a Shoot Raven Guard list with no assault? He would just be a reroll banner, an I better off with a Captain as Warlord?

In the same way at some point the values I input into the spreadsheet stop calculating at a certain point requiring me to refresh.

I think you have enough points to add at least one Heavy Stubber to a Repulsor. If you're already going full anti-vehicle on one I would drop the Icarus for another frag launcher and use the points for heavy stubbers on both. If you haven't already purchased the Aggressors go with the bolter variant; the amount of firepower they put out is only slightly worse less efficient than the flamers but has the advantage of a longer range. I'd also suggest finding the points to give your Intercessors grenade launchers and possibly your Sergeants power swords.

Bombogenesis posted:I knew it was the old sculpts, didn't know if they were actually smaller though. Still not an awful way to start up Orkz by the looks of it? The ork models are the same size. Battle for Vedros boxes are leftover models from the 5th edition starter that they packaged up and discounted for sale at Big Box stores(Walmart/Hobby Lobby) . The boxes are a fantastic way to start an ork army, Orks haven't really gotten a line replenishment since 5th so everything you buy will match up fine from other boxes.

FW contemptor is ~$50 vs $60 for the plastic. Shipping aside, if you're buying arms for both, the FW model is cheaper and looks so much better. mango sentinel fucked around with this message at 01:14 on Jan 12, 2018 |

And shipping, from Russia, is 8 bucks vs. 10 on GW site. And the quality is infinitely better than finecast. I have a bunch of their stuff and have been very happy with it. Shipping can take a bit, my last order took a month.

Probably should try and sneak in a lieutenant somewhere, with all those guns you're going to want at least some bad luck protection on wound rolls. Immediate reaction would be take one instead of the ancient.

I got some more Death Guard painting done, like a fly  The DI Noxious Blighbringer  A faceswapped sorcerer   I swapped the primaris from DI with a friend for more Death Guard, so I had a spare Blighbringer to make a ghetto Foul Blightspawn    And a character groupshot, including my ~10 year old tiny chaos lord  But what's this? Zoom.  Enhance.    I wanted to remake him as close as possible at the new scale   As a break from green, I did this dude as a Prime too. The codex was inspiring, my first army is good
