Got my first/first league game.

My orks vs. Dark elves

How bad was it?

Well, it was his fist game in the league and three of his players leveled up.

*nods* I sympathize. Got a screenshot of my first league game below. Note the lack of players knocked out. They all just wanted to skip straight into Serious Injury/Dead.

Holy poo poo there's a lot of plastic in the SW:A box. I've been gluing terrain together for a few hours, not even a third done here.

Weird question: Are there full rules for Regicide somewhere online? Like, is this a game that can be played?

It certainly is much easier on you w/r/t bitz mathing! Don't sweat the optimization.

E: squat links or it didn't happen.

Also noticed that the plastic sisters clock is set at 6 minutes to midnight...

Read the comments on the video, half of them are either people asking GW if that means anything or GW trolling the askers.

Can anyone recommend any sites/stores to get terrain similar to the Necromunda Bulkhead set? Like same style/industrial doors and shutters/etc. Cheaper the better, gonna need a lot of these :P . Thanks!

Behold, the Awuu Pattern Bolt Pistol:

FW has said, repeatedly, that this poo poo was intentional. It's limited to a Space Wolf upgrade set so it won't impact most people, but it's still dumb as hell. Space Wolf fans are extremely vocal and their releases have not gone the way they'd like.

Laser sight for head-canon?

Anycubic Photon, got it with one of the recent Ebay coupons

I'm seeing a lot of posts about the Anycubic Photon lately. Is that one basically the "Yes, this one does what miniature gamers have dreamed about forever" printer? Or is the tech not there yet/is there a better one?

On a similar subject, what's the general rules on printing stuff like Battlefleet Gothic ships, where GW straight doesn't make the minis anymore? I am aware selling would still be a no-go, but personal use and all that?

Can confirm: Anycubic Photons are badass.

Played Killteam for the first time today. It was... an experience.

...So are Orks bad, or am I just bad? It felt like there was nothing I could do against even marginal armor saves, like everything I was throwing just bounced and was completely ineffective? Granted, maybe Thousand Sons and Primaris Marines are better at the whole armor saves/survivability than most, but holy poo poo I killed one model over two games and lost like 25 Boys during that same chunk of time.

I did pretty well in a local stores KT league with Orks, playing against mostly different flavoured Marines

With Orks in KT you need volume of shots to do in most Marine Equivalents a bunch of shoota boyz put a bunch of shots out while your opponents try to close in, and they're still pretty rough in close combat.

-Take a Kommando nob and give him the Powerklaw, make him a Combat Specialist, 4 attacks 4+ str10 Ap-3(?) D3 to guarantee getting to an injury roll. Biggest Marine Killer on my team

-Taking a Nob with Kombi/Skortcha and hitting him with Dakka Dakka so he gets 4 rounds of shooting is awesome 2x2 shoota + 2xD6 Skortcha should do something. Don't forget your dudes have assault weapons so you can run all over the place and are probably always hitting on 6s, so don't worry about negatives to hit. Second biggest Marine Killer on my team.

-Take Big shootas to draw fire, they're barely better then shoota boys but people are afraid of big weapons.

-A burna boy is Ok in Melee, and OK in shooting, you probably don't need more than one, but a fanatic burna boy is good fun. +1 attack +1 str on charge with an ap-2 boy is a good time.

-Don't make your Nob or Big shootas specialists, so that their kills make your boyz level up.

-Take 1 loota and a Spanner, make the spanner your comms dude, to give your loota +1 to attack, and you've got a bit of a heavy weapons battery.

-Gnasher squig is 2 command point 50% for a mortal wound, it's swell against heavily armoured one wound dudes.

-Make your leader a grot and hide them in the backfield. I've only lost my grot leader once.

-Tie people up with Boyz then charge in with their buddies, don't forget about piling in and consolidating around guys to prevent them from running away.

-If not Dakka Dakking save command points for injury rerolls particularly against Armoured dudes.

Thank you

! I shall Green Tide my foes well with this information :P .
