OMG sriracha pudding! posted:The Skorne community is kinda like the WMH version of Iron Warriors players; I think the lack of hazard stripes is what pushes Skorne people over the edge from 'funny salty' to 'funny but actually sad salty'. In the single year I played 40k my iron warriors army was invalidated by rules twice. If that's a trend I think they have the right to be salty.

It's also because they used to have the most OP loving bullshit list imaginable and then the entire chaos faction got tanked. e: so it's a combination of legitimate salt and 'whaaaa I wanna be OP again' salt

It was during the year where chaos got two codexes because it was bad (I had old sculpt plague marines) so it was probably before they were over powered

rkajdi posted:The screening infantry still got free strikes in that scenario, at least in MKII. So the Angelius was often sort of hosed, since they aren't all that durable. I do remember hearing the bad old days of MKI had flying ignoring free strikes was rather awful. I forget why, but I could never manage to get enough hurt on them with my TFGs, which were the only screening infantry I had at the time. Iirc they're 14/18 with Tenacity, which is a huge pain in the rear end to kill, even with free strikes. Alpha Phoenix posted:Fake edit: For real Kreoss3 is amazing fun to play. Power Up helped him hugely - I don't have to choose between supporting my robots/army effectively and fueling them properly anymore! And even for as much as I really, really loved Warpath, Assail is incredible and a ton of fun. Magres fucked around with this message at 19:45 on Jan 11, 2017 |

Prediction for venator tier Every 25 points of venators gets a free CA, solo, or weapon crew Venator slingers get ambush

It's gonna be every 9 points of beast handlers gets a free venator solo, and all venator models gain unyielding

That's probably a dumb question, but how do you deal with being outranged/alpha'ed? Especially outranged by units that can shoot farther that you can charge/run? It seems that most of my games results in getting jammed or zoned out.

It seems that most of my games results in getting jammed or zoned out. This is an incredibly generic question that's hard to answer, but generally you either overwhelm them with threats or bring your own guns or threat your own alpha. Or play super hard to the scenario. Do you have some specific examples? It also depends on the faction, because an Arcane Shield'd Centurion has considerably less reason to worry about getting Alpha'd than plenty of other things.

Well, that tend be a thing I do whatever I play. I guess I might be too hung up on having guys dying, though, and as a result I dislike walking into harm's way even if I could possibly overwhelm my opponent on the next turn.

What models are you using Typically you'll just have to offer something up to just eat it to get them to come to you. gunlines it might be worth it to just run into melee to tie them up

Yeah in general if you know you're out-threatted you either need to throw something disposable out front to bait out their alpha and then counterpunch or punish them on scenario for staying out of your threat. On some scenarios that's easier than others obviously. Run to jam so you can advance other stuff into striking range isn't the worst idea either. When I was first starting out I got super stressed out about infantry dying but basically you're gonna lose dudes virtually every game. The main thing is to make sure that the guys who are dying are still serving a purpose that lets you kill more of the other guy's dudes in return.

Jimmy Hats posted:Empower on greyboi is cool and good tho I sure hope it's empower. It sorta sounds like they grant magical weapons to warjacks "These Greylords apply their knowledge of magic and mechanika to imbue the weapons of warjacks with the power needed to cut down unnatural foes who are more than flesh and steel." I know that when it was taken off of the Koldun Lord there was talk that Khador would get it again so I'm optimistic.
