krursk posted:I appreciate your suggestions and I wish I could hold off but failing to make a game by the monthly deadline or forfeiting is a loss with extra penalties. Vehicle bunkering is a good tactic in general, unfortunately battlewagons are too expensive to be effective(I used them like that in 5th edition when decently pointed). I really don't think a new Ork-Dex will give me more options to deal with the DC bombs unless KFFs are buffed to give a universal invulnerable save (or boys get a boost to melee survivability in general) and/or point reduced boys. Play bait and switch, maybe. Run an all vehicle army next game, just load up on everything with wheels and stompy legs. Then in the next game, after they've wasted a ton of points on Melta, Lascannons, and Missile Launchers, revert to your swarm army. Hopefully that'll get you through September and into "Orktober" and see if your Codex changes the equation. You should also see if you can get them to let you play the previewed Dakka rule early:

Just picked up some more storm bolters for my DW. I went with Shapeways for the first time. The eBay market for storm bolters is a bit out of control, I'm glad I picked up a handful a few months ago for relatively cheap. Watch the Chapter Approved increase their points cost.

Anyone willing to critique this list for a 1000pt game in my escalation league? Battalion Detachment +5CP (Imperium - Space Wolves) [51 PL, 1000pts] HQ [19 PL, 390pts] Bjorn the Fell-handed [12 PL, 247pts] Selections: Heavy flamer [17pts], Twin lascannon [50pts] Wolf Lord on Thunderwolf [7 PL, 143pts] Selections: Frost axe [10pts], Saga of the Hunter, Storm shield [15pts], Warlord Black Death Selections: Relic of The Fang Troops [15 PL, 271pts] Intercessor Squad [5 PL, 91pts] Selections: Auxiliary Grenade Launcher [1pts], Bolt rifles, 4x Intercessor [72pts] Intercessor Pack Leader [18pts] Selections: Chainsword Intercessor Squad [5 PL, 90pts] Selections: Bolt rifles, 4x Intercessor [72pts] Intercessor Pack Leader [18pts] Selections: Chainsword Intercessor Squad [5 PL, 90pts] Selections: Bolt rifles, 4x Intercessor [72pts] Intercessor Pack Leader [18pts] Selections: Chainsword Elites [9 PL, 170pts] Murderfang [9 PL, 170pts] Fast Attack [3 PL, 55pts] Cyberwolves [1 PL, 15pts] Selections: Cyberwolf [1 PL, 15pts] Fenrisian Wolves [2 PL, 40pts] Selections: 5x Fenrisian Wolf [40pts] Dedicated Transport [5 PL, 114pts] Razorback [5 PL, 114pts] Selections: Twin assault cannon [44pts] Created with BattleScribe General idea is to run the Wolf lord, Murderfang, and razorback straight at the other guy with wolves to soak up a few shots, while Bjorn and the intercessors march up behind/take objectives. It's a beginner league with no Supreme command or superheavy detachments so I won't have to worry about knights or primarchs obliterating me. Not sure if I should stay with Murderfang or maybe replace him with some hellblasters to hang back with Bjorn?

After eBay coupons, swaps, and squeezing as much blood as possible from this stone, for $200 my genestealer cult got: 30 neophyte hybrids 20 acolyte hybrids 2 Iconwards 1 Patriarch 1 Sloth-looking Abominant 5 Aberrants 24 genestealers 1 Goliath truck The question now is do I excitedly put all this stuff together, leave it in a box until the codex comes out and I see what’s not trash, or just assemble and paint some stuff to kill team it up until the codex arrives.

Leave the Acolytes, Neophytes, and truck until you know what’s solid/cool in the new book. 33 models should be enough to keep you busy for a while.

You have a great unique color scheme and you're making all the anime robot armor look great. Cool conversion on this Piranha as well. I'm currently making an effort to finish some Tau (19 days until a game I've signed up for), I'll try and get some decent pictures to share... So you can see how much worse anime robot painting can get

Some belated army August stuff because apparently I'm a retard and forgot I already had these shots and didn't need to dig stuff out of boxes to take pics. I already posted some of the Orks and my Chaos Ork stuff before, so it's the Marines: Hellbats, I created them right at the end of RT but didn't really settle on proper colours etc. til 3rd ed. I have a few other really shittily & inconsistently painted units and characters but they never got any game time.  Old Timey Salamanders. Largely RT Era stuff with a dash of 2nd ed. A labour of love, I had the idea ages ago but only really got into painting them in the past few years (and started cursing younger me for taking not a lot of care with my old rear end minis!).  Not strictly an Army but I have a handful of RT era Imperial Agents to accompany them, possibly to turn into an actual =I= retinue at some point if I add some more figures to them and the non-index rules ever materialise.  Ditto these Grey Knights. May add a HQ at some point for a Patrol or something.

I'm currently seeking some help on a list I'm trying to make for a doubles match. I play Ultramarines and I'm playing with a partner that's looking to play either Space Wolves or Dark Angels. Normally making a 1000 point Ultramarine list isn't too difficult for me, but my partner wants me to bring Roboute. Since he would take up most of my points, is it still possible to bring a competitive list at 1000pts with Roboute?

I feel like the problem there is that you're putting 400pts into Guilliman then he's only 'buffing' 600pts. Which is like 3x5 man Hellblasters and an 105pt HQ which gives you garbage for CPs or you could have him run a battalion of Intercessors and then 1 juicy extra thing (Aggressors, Hellblasters or a Predator?). I guess focus on what your friend isn't bringing out of those 2 options, but you'll still probably get your asses kicked by a team bringing double 1000pt Knight armies.
