The Bee posted:So I can't bring them in a Death Guard detachment, but they're fine if summoned after the fact or taken as their own supplement? That seems fair to me, especially with Patrol at the least being easy to get. I think that is how it works, because you can bring any chaos stuff in other detachments. There is no limit unless it is limited by a special chapter or rules thing. Like the chapter rules for the space marines or the Admec And the detachments don't effect each other for limits, so yeah I am pretty sure it works

With the smallest detachment being 1 HQ/1 troop it isn't like it is hard to make multiple detachment armies work. I mean with daemons you want a herald/Greater daemon usually anyway

Genghis Cohen posted:Played and lost hard this evening - I decided to tone it down and take a zany list, because I thought my friends were growing sick of slogging against my Imperial Guard army. So I took some zany inquisition stuff and one of each assassin type in a 1k game. This unfortunately coincided with my opponent deciding his Tyranid lists weren't working, so he arrived with 90 termagants and 2 Tervigons! Something of a mismatch. Nothing I could really do to his army, so I just got slowly swarmed to death. Tabled in turn 6. Obviously not their ideal targets, but even so I was struck by how pointless Inquisitors are now. The assassins and ministorum close combat squads (Crusaders and Death Cult Assassins) that I took, I can see where they would be useful. The Inquisitors are just overpriced Psykers, they have no real benefit over a Primaris Psyker and their buffs to other models are negligible. I like Greyfax, but I can't see the use of a normal inquisitor.

Mine have done work, they shoot 2d6 autohitting attacks that re-roll 1's to wound and start at S:6 with -1 rend. They get locked in combat, they fly away and shoot again.

Whatever the cheapest beer is, since I spend too much money on this game. This right here is the best opinion Although I have to say the chaos book is looking excited, they got me excited with Traitor legions in 7th and now they are gonna hook me again. I like the idea that I can run several smaller detachments if I wanted to and have a bunch of chaos legions teamed up together

Secondly, if you’re a Thousand Sons player, you may have noticed that the Dark Hereticus discipline in the new codex is larger than the one in the Index. Don’t worry – the discipline isn’t being replaced and you won’t need to get Codex: Chaos Space Marines to keep using it. Similarly, if you have Codex: Chaos Space Marines, you’re welcome to use the expanded Dark Hereticus powers with your Thousand Sons Psykers. If you’re a Daemons player, this change also applies to Be’lakor. All they are saying is if you want to spend the money one the new book/cards you can use it, but if you don't want to you can just use the old ones

The best thing for sisters is pretty well Dominions, Retributors and Seraphim(And Celestine). I use flamers on Seraphim, but that is mostly because I don't want to convert Melta pistols. Celestine hits like a goddamn truck too. This is the best that Sisters have been since like 5th edition. I am a filthy mixer though, so I have Tempestus to drop in behind my enemy to help with tanks hidden somewhere. I wish I had repressors to use, but Immolaters are quite good

So I've been playing quite a few games with my sisters of battle, and I was wondering if anyone here has used Ogryns at all? I am trying to figure out if I should do a unit of 3 Bullgryns in a vehicle + a priest, or if I should footslog a unit of 6 up with a priest.

Yeast posted:I use 3 + a priest in a Chimera as a plug for my lines when playing guard. Pretty good. I'm waiting for the Guard Codex before getting anymore, the armament at the moment I predict is a typo that gets fixed. (The ability to mix and match between their combat weapons/shields). Yeah I was thinking of using a Taurox, mostly because I got one in the get started box and I don't feel like having my storm troopers ride in one when they can deep strike wherever the gently caress they want

JoshTheStampede posted:This was my Carcharadons vs his Sisters plus Roboute. He scouts his repressors full of meltas up, I pop one with a charging dread and wipe a couple 5-woman sisters squads and most of a Crusader squad. He takes long-distance miltimelta shots at my centurions, whiffs, vaporizes my dreadnought with the meltas, wipes a squad of scouts, Celestine charges my terminators and whiffs, and he quits at the bottom of 1 saying he can't possibly win so why bother. Sisters are very good right now, I've only lost 1 game with them out of 10. And I don't even have the crazy OP repressors Celestine is a loving beast, but I likely wouldn't put her into terms.

I'm curious what we'll see model wise though - the DG well is dry, surely something new has to happen (please not more Primaris). It seems pretty likely there will be a bunch of new nurgle daemons in January with the codex drop since they have been teasing the goddamn AOS nurgle book for like 4 months now

The drop on storm bolters was in the FAQ's that hit right after the Indexes dropped. It was a mistake that they had 4 points listed there. And yeah, I have like 15 of the drat model. Storm bolters on SOB's are great, and will be even better if I can spend command points to shoot for free if a character dies

Schadenboner posted:Whatever happened to Bumfights? I feel like it could really stand to make a resurgence in the modern media landscape. The videos have been banned in several countries, including the United Kingdom, Canada,[4] and New Zealand. The internet auction site eBay routinely cancels listings which contain copies of the video, citing their policy which prohibits the sale of materials which promote or glorify violence.[5] In the state of California, both felony and misdemeanor charges were filed against the producers, as well as civil lawsuits; in 2005,[6] the producers were sentenced to six months in prison for having failed to complete the community service to which they had previously been sentenced. The filmmakers maintain that the production of the video was a mutually beneficial arrangement and that the homeless people depicted freely chose to participate. They went to prison and agreed to not make anymore. They were facing a lot of legal troubles, also those bums have millions of dollars each now since they were forced to pay them out

I have one question for the chaos space marines and Deathguard army construction. If I take plague bearers (Or any of the daemons that are in the deathguard book) does that break the legion rules? I mean I have just been playing it that the daemons don't get them but I get to keep my deathguard with their tactics, but I want to make sure that is right. They are in the drat book after all. Been mostly playing sisters since this edition came out, and holy poo poo is martyrdom good!
