Corrode posted:It's the difference between two players agreeing on restrictions as a mutual thing, and one player deciding unilaterally that there's extra rules which aren't stated and you're a bad person for not following. I don't think anybody seriously said that. Personally I just think it seems a bit silly that every small skirmish involves the top leadership from whatever side. It's even worse when people play marine vs marine. I know it makes me a grog and not necessarily means the players a bad people.

Hummingbird James posted:Don't forget that there's a near-perpetual motion engine inside it, that they don't have the instruction manual for because the guy who invented it didn't share how it worked before he died. So, since they're too scared to turn it off in case it doesn't turn back on again, they store Dragoons and Ironstriders either in huge circular barracks, where the walkers are constantly turning and the riders have to be lowered on with a huge crane, or on huge treadmills to (very inefficiently) transfer that energy into other machinery. I always pictured them on giant ellipticals. This is one of the only units I don't have yet. I'll start picking some up once I'm done getting my Fulgurite Electro-Priest squad up to 20.

Played against some tau suits+drones+2 hammerheads list on Friday with 80 brims, 4 demon princes, Bel'kor, 4 heralds, changling and I had so many points to spare I tossed in 9 screamers. Smite spam is still an amazing thing and with enough brims (with points to allow some spitting off the single blues) really protected all my characters. I can see wanting some shooting and don't own enough exalted flamers so I started to look at....goose willis posted:What is the general consensus on Renegades & Heretics in 8th edition? I was checking them out yesterday. Probably pretty solid to use in Chaos soup. The Malefic Lord is a cheaper Primaris Pskyer with a 4++ so that makes them the best smite platform in the game. I'm probably going to run like 7 of them with like 100 brimstones and changingling instead of demon princes. I'm digging for a cheap reroll platform in chaos like Hakkar but I'm not seeing one so I'll probably not really use the rest of the artillery line but I can take chaos marine quad launchers or autocannon havocs so maybe that will be a thing. Brimstone horors+Malefic Lords is so crazy I can't not play it. adamantium|wang posted:To us 40K is a platoon to company level game and we don't often have anyone more senior than a captain leading things.

I had my first game of warhammer in 5 years yesterday and had a blast. Fun playgroup, and shout out to Dubuque s warhammer group. Also, totally square basing my conscripts so they can march in orderly ranks into the guns of the enemy. Thanks to whoever gave me the suggestion.

Also, Chaos Marines don't have quad launchers (yet loyalists do of course, though they at least had to have it FAQ'd in) so you'd have to use the Guard ones. Maybe you were thinking of the quad heavy bolters?

Speaking of FW rules, apparently they forgot about their Raven Guard assault marine model as Korvydae has no rules. You can still buy the model though. Whoops. I picked up that Primaris Librarian yesterday after my game. The model is really loving awesome. As for my game, I lost in turn 7 when the relic holding squad was slaughtered by Bobby G's heavy bolter. Fun game though. Made the dumb mistake of wasting my vulture on Guiliman to no effect, but it took my opponents entire first round of shooting to remove it, so it died a hero.

What are the odds a Primaris Space Marine army would ever use 2 Chaplains? I am stuck in analysis paralysis between copying Zuuls and buying the actual one. (Its the same price between the two.) Friendly PSA: Dont be a fool like your friend dexefiend and buy 100+ models in a short time frame! I feel like i will never be done cleaning these models. It doesn't help that I am pretty anal when it comes to mold lines. I think I have 91 models ready for drilling bolters and attaching my shapeways shoulderpads.

(Its the same price between the two.) 1) I feel like Captains do a better job of providing a hit buff since it will work for ranged as well so generally give more to your army for the points. You might want one Chaplain to escort a heavy hitting unit in combat so you don't risk your captain. or 2) Go nuts. Have two skull-chaps with pimp canes having a swag off.

The whole character discussion is silly. For instance, I didn't have Ghazgkhull Thraka leading some Deffskulls--it was Boss Nekkstompa rolling with his Lefftenuntz the Git Grindaz in their Kustom Battlewagon. I don't have Nightbringer, I have He That Ends All. Play how you want. Edit: PSA I still have shitloads of Marines and Dark Angels, to include vehicles, and especially Deathwing Terminators for sale.

I really like Reaper Aged + Polished bone since they are a much more bleached look than GW Ushabti/Screaming. I get frustrated occasionally at how wet/loose they are in comparison to Citadel thiccness but Polished Bone especially gives that clean white bone.

Huh. Just realized that the generic stratagems in the marine codex look like they can be used by all loyalist marines. I'm guessing this is going to be a thing in the future where there's going to be some minor overlap?

Dreadnoughts have lost access to twin heavy flamers, twin heavy bolters and twin autocannon. Looks like most characters have lost bike access too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6DqjcNd9mOY
