I'm interested in playing this again, how has CSM held up from 6th? I've got around 3 tac squads, some obliterators, bikers, a Heldrake, and various other dudes. I've also got an Imperial Knight that is half painted, but I don't think they can ally.

Alright that sounds neat, I'll have to take a look at the IA13 book. Man 30k sounds sweet though. But I don't think anyone here plays it and it seems from you guys 30k vs 40k ends poorly?

I would love to get Curze and use him since he's one of my favorite Primarchs, and Night Lords are cool by themselves. Such a huge investment though.

AbusePuppy posted:It typically does, but usually for the 30K army. 30K struggles with a lot of important facets of the game- it's designed to have big hordes of infantry shooting and assaulting each other with some tanks and other units in the background. Consequently, a lot of the stuff that normally makes SM armies shine (ATSKNF, Drop Pods, Combat Squads, embedded special weapons, MSU units, high mobility via bikes/transports, etc) is just completely absent. All of these things leave the army vastly less flexible and efficient than a typical 40K army is, and even with the addition of various kooky special abilities and options it really doesn't make up the difference. A good 40K army will typically shred a 30K army into a fine red mist in relatively short order because the 30K army just lacks the right kinds of answers to a lot of stuff- it might have great guns or powerful units, but there are simply too many gaps in what it can do. God that just makes me want to 30k more as that's what I enjoy with this game. e: Oh man Mechanicus models look awesome. Drythe fucked around with this message at 21:56 on Jan 5, 2015 |

30k sounds super cool, Mechanicus sounds super cool, my girlfriend is going to hate me and it's all your guy's fault. e: Do I need both 30k books or just the relevant one? e2: What's a decent selection of units that I can start an army with? I want to know the price point I'll be looking at and how long I'll be saving. Drythe fucked around with this message at 18:48 on Jan 6, 2015 |

Awesome. I really like playing low model count armies too, they appeal to what Warhammer is about more to me (strong dudes smashing poo poo) I will find a book and read over the crap before I place a FW order.

I also bought a KR case for my CSM and it's pretty fuckin awesome. The backpack is a great way to carry like, everything you need.

Unless your opponent is the gooniest neckbeard ever (which I've had a few) no one is going to care. You do however need a copy of the latest rulebook and the Codex.

I guess my GW store is super chill since the manager wouldn't care, but I go to an independent store most of the time anyways.Posigniat posted:Thank you very much for the swift reply! One more quick question, due to the number of rules and special abilities, can I keep a visual marker of effects both positive and negative on the board, Warmachine style? If allowed do they frown on it if I do the same for my opponents pieces? I recently watched a YouTube battle report and the tiny group of Space Wolves had about eight special rules per unit and that's a lot of information for me to digest. Again, depends on if the guy you are playing is a spergy neckbeard. Nothing is stopping you from having markers or a notebook to track poo poo.

Help me goons, I added the Cybernetica Battlegroup to my cart and tomorrow is payday. Someone tell me to not do this. I don't have any kids to deprive of juice so I can't come up with any cons.

I once got a bloodthirster that had release agent mixed in. Can't even hold primer no matter what I do. Least now I got two models for the price of one.

I will if I can win the bid but seeing it ends while I would still be driving home from work that seems unlikely

So what's a good set up for Castellaxs? I want to field a few since they are awesome looking. Two Maulers, a Multi Melta, and a Darkfire to start with at 4 of them?
