I've been getting spergy over the new bj mini because that's the quickest way to get dirt in that hmg barrel and have a misfire. loving Spaniards using fantasy poses on my sci fi anime miniature game. At least the new Nexus has a cool standard pose. Also speaking of Haris i was disappointed the Overdron couldn't link with Unidrons. When we learned it had a HMC i guess it is fair

Idk, I see a lot of spec-ops lists which turn the guy into either a specialist or a CoC piece, especially on the official forums. Maybe it's just what the "meta" is but it really does seem to me that making a 'utility' spec-ops is much more useful and effective most of the time than turning them into a mean lean fighting machine.

I think I've seen CoC on a SpecOps like twice ever, and that mode used to be quite popular around here.

One of my friends noticed that in the web Army builder, vanilla YJ has a Haris profile listed under Zhanying. We're both pretty certain that as described in the TeamPro listing and in generic army rules for Fireteam, that Duo is the only real option, so we were wondering if this was an Army fuckup (my personal opinion) or if vanilla YJ got a super special Haris.

There are fireteam profiles listed all over the place that you can select, but the fireteam portion of the profile doesn't do anything in vanilla.

Well, for example, Sekban have a Haris profile in QK that nevertheless doesn't display when you select vanilla Haqq. Hence why my friend initially assumed it was a special case and why we wanted to double check to make sure even though we both agreed it seemed weird after I brought up the TeamPro wording.

The whole conversation in which I learned that the Zhanying Haris (erroneously as Pierzak confirmed) was included as a vanilla option, was about setting up an Asawira or Sekban duo for a vanilla Haqq list I'm considering.

Local tourney runner seemed pretty despising of it, so I don't? It seems like a link team with a lot of specialists would be the quick way, though the team would rapidly lose effectiveness since you'd be dropping the specialists. Just all the mines and forward deployed peeps on the enemy models to deny them.

Have two "fetchers" run for one or two targets and spend the rest of my orders stopping my opponent doing the same to me. Trying to secure several targets is far too order intensive imo. That said, I've only played it once and I forced it upon my players in our tournament/campaign because it fit the story I made

Yeah, the Warsenal one is a very nice building in itself so I don't mind. Trying to motivate myself to finish a few more models this evening. Soon as I do them it's on to the Pain Train (5 Mobile Brigada). It's really time I tried out some new list ideas, my Corregidor are in a rut.

An excellent looking table man! I love seeing peoples' custom terrain, definitely a lot of advantages to having a personally unique set-up with so much straight-as-per-instructions MDF stuff around. Also, your sort of designs avoid the so-called 'castle effect'. After hearing of this, I can't stop seeing it. It's how the little individual buildings with low walls all around the roofs create little fortresses - models can lie prone, or fall unconscious, and be essentially untouchable without a great expenditure of orders and/or speculative fire. It really strikes me how many games come down to this sort of thing.

Yeah, we try really hard to avoid having too many buildings with perimeter walls around the rooftops. They do make a useful reward for choosing deployment advantage at times.

Genghis Cohen posted:Yeah, the Warsenal one is a very nice building in itself so I don't mind. Good luck with it. Whenever I put together a 5 MB list, I feel like I either end up lacking orders and with a really obvious Alguacile LT, or I don't have enough variety in the MB loadouts because I had to economize. This is also highly anecdotal, but I feel like whenever I run 5 MB, I either get crushed or do the crushing, and there's never any middle ground between those two points. What I want to do with it sometime is run a bunch of repeaters, prolly from Transductors and Alguacile FOs, plus the Bandit KHD to keep the hackers off. Never been able to find the points for the requisite engineer + drone + bandit support group, sadly.
