Speaking of Death Shroud, I really can't stand the whole farming scythe thing they have going and was thinking of turning them into war scythes. Is this dumb Y/N?

Sulecrist posted:My only thought is that when you're spending 64 points on additional hand weapons, not being allowed to run sort of sucks. Also, I think artificer armor would be a better buy for your Apothecaries than power swords. Yeah, I'm kinda 50/50 on the extra weapons. I decided to take them at first because quantity has a quality all of its own, and swamping elite units with bodies and dice (with rad grenades) is a very DG thing to do. The Apothecaries have both AA and power weapons which should complement the AA + power fist sergeants. But then again if I never make it into assault its all a waste of points.

Reaping Veterans and Heavy Support squads are non-compulsory so I need the two Tacticals The voxes are there to help make the thudd guns and the Medusa a bit more accurate. The Master of Signal was going to ride with the Heavy squad and his Cognis-Signum already gives him an Augury. Dropping the extra CCWs lets me bump the missile launchers up to lascannons. Hmmm. e: I just realised with the FAQ changes attaching a Cataphracti-armoured character to Death Shroud don't stop them from being able to overwatch any more.

All you need to know for it is Horus' corruption is linked to the secret warrior lodges that are active in some Legions, that the Alpha Legion has two Primarchs that may be split on the whole rebellion thing and the Wolves have been badly mauled purging Prospero.

Also it's worth knowing that literally everything is the fault of Kor Phaeron and Erebus of the Word Bearers and over the last 50 years they've used their Chaplains to spread the rot to other Legions. The First Heretic is an awesome book that sets things up for the whole Heresy. e: despite being the 14th novel published ee: quote:...as of February 2015 consists of thirty-four novels, twenty-two novellas, thirty-six audio dramas, and a large number of short stories written by over nineteen different authors. There are many more books in the series already being prepared for publication in 2016 and beyond.

Just glue that poo poo closed and say you can draw LOS through it while conferring a 5+ cover save. Drop pods of any stripe just aren't worth the hassle.

Also you can only hit with one grenade/meltabomb per squad per phase now, so so long meltabombing Spartans to death.

krursk posted:Edit: Melta-bombs don't really count as grenades though right? You can't throw them like grenades. BULBASAUR posted:Melta bombs are bombs and not grenades, and are not thrown, so you can basically ignore this. They're grenades dudes. Just a lot of people (myself and my group included) thought that throwing a grenade referred to using them in the shooting phase and everyone with a grenade could use a single one in assault. With the clarification Tankbustas are crippled and there's really no point to buying grenades for a whole squad unless they're assault or defensive

If they'd just used the word "used" instead of "thrown" in that bold bit none of this would have ever come up and we'd have worked through how stupid it was years ago.

BULBASAUR posted:They refer to the line saying 'Only one grenade (of any type) can be thrown by a unit per phase’. Melta bombs are not thrown Melta bombs aren't thrown in the shooting phase, but are thrown in the assault phase. This is GW using "thrown" like "shoot" or "strike" to describe something being used and using typical language that communicates something other than what they're trying to convey. They then go on to use "throw" when describing shooting attacks made with other grenades but then say "use" when describing them in the assault phase which further muddies the waters. But its all moot now with the clarification: quote:Q: Using grenades in the Assault phase. Can every model replace their close combat attacks with a single grenade attack or just one model in the unit? Like in the Shooting phase e.g. a unit of 5 Tau Pathfinders charge a Knight. Do 5 Pathfinders make close combat haywire grenade attacks? e: To be clear I was with your reading Bulba, because it didn't make much sense for only one model to be able to use a grenade in the context of paying per model for the upgrade. This is stupid as hell and makes me really concerned if all these books have been written with a 5ppm upgrade on the assumption that only one of them can use them in a phase.

They seem to be more of a liability now because even though you only get one swing everyone in the squad has a chance to hurt the front armour of that Leviathan so you can't use Our Weapons Are Useless to disengage.

How good are Rapier Vindicators? I'm debating swapping a caliver support squad for one because I think phosphex and rad grenade Death Guard can handle infantry well enough and I could really use some (relatively) mobile anti tank. e: List I'm building towards: quote:+++ Death Guard 2500 (2497pts) +++ adamantium|wang fucked around with this message at 01:33 on Jun 4, 2016 |

Did a couple of very quick test marines and I'm really pleased at how this came out: Very quick to do and would probably look better on Mk II and III armour with all of their raised edges. I'm going to do the bases with a cool grey scheme like Terminator's Future War parts. The dust on their greaves will come from walking through the ashes of the worlds they've burned. Trying to find the balance between too much weathering and not enough but I think I've lucked onto it.

So I just got a BaC Tactical squad off eBay to make a small support squad with and goddamn am I sorely tempted to ditch a Mk III Death Guard army and do a Mk IV Blood Angels one instead.

I really don't understand what they've been trying to do with DDPs and why they seem so determined to write themselves in knots over it. Either flat out state that units in a DDP can, unlike everything else in the game, assault out of reserves or just give the disembarking Dreadnought Shrouded on the turn it lands and be done with it.
