I've been using conscripts for years and they were fun and fluffy as hell. I'd still use them if they were at least decent.

Yeah my bad. I stroked out when I realized my new codex was out of date before I took the plastic wrap off. I'm guessing that a speed bump of regular infantry squads will do just about as well as conscripts used to if they are spaced right now that LRs are good again.

Battle Report: LRs are very very good now.

Soviet Commubot posted:I've been gravitating more and more to regular Russes over any of the variants as I play more games with the codex. I like one Demolisher to hit those really hefty vehicles but the regular battle cannon is just a great all arounder. I just fielded a fully plasma'd out Pask, a battle cannon tank commander, 2 battle cannon LRs and a demolisher LR. The Cadian regimental buff along with the Cadian tank order is crazy good. It's ridiculous how much better the standard Russ is at cracking vehicles compared to 7th ed. Russes just feel good as hell on the table right now. Exactly how you would want a big fuckoff tank to play. I just hope they don't turn out to be too strong.

Schadenboner posted:Tauroxes Prime becoming stupidly good and Chimeras losing command vehicle (and not getting a points drop to match) means there isn't a lot of call for poor 'ol Chimera round these parts no more. Plus 8th ed's changes to vehicle damage made meltavets less good. Also, Chimeras cost more points now AND they lost the command vehicle ability. I'm still taking a couple but I doubt it's optimal.

It's worth noting that Chimeras do have a higher transport capacity which allows you to transport vets and an officer or two special weapons squads.

Even with an IG tank army you are gonna want to have at least 40 infantrymen to screen the tanks. I'd go with Tau or Grey Knights if I was you.

Badablack posted:Tyranids have plenty of tools to handle knights. Lots of mortal wounds, lots of hit penalty debuffs, scads of cheap dudes. They’re still a bear to fight en masse. I’m excited to hear how this goes. I’m starting to pick up GSC to field as ambush troops alongside my guard. As I was typing that out I realized that a counts-as GSC catachan force could be really cool.

I don’t suppose GW has faq’d the fact that buying a demo charge for an acolyte hybrid takes away their rending claws and cultist knife?

BattleScribe is working as written in the index, but I suspect it wasn’t GW’s intended result. We’ll find out soon I guess. Where can i find rumors about the new codex?

I am building a GSC army/killteam and I think it would be cool if the genestealers looked more human than usual. Does anyone know of an example of genestealers painted with a sort of "fleshy" tone?

Revelation 2-13 posted:Those new GSC goodies look great. I really hope those bikes are not priced/pointed as beast of nurgle. Yeah, I really want to field some, but they just look like the sort of thing that is going to be crazy expensive. Im guessing three bikes for forty bucks or something outrageous like that.

For me, the allure of the GSC is more about the drama of a proletarian revolution being carried out on an imperial world. It sucks that their defeat (or liquidation) is inevitable, but it’s still a fun idea. I imagine, though I don’t know for sure, that Hive Fleets spit genestealers out all over the place. There are probably countless worlds with active genestealer cults that aren’t in the imminent path of a fleet. E: besides, it’s not like they are any more hosed than the Tau are in the long run.

Quick GSC rules question that I haven't seen answered elsewhere: Does the Patriarch's "Living Idol" make models from an allied detachment of Brood Brothers autopass moral tests?

The new ATV looks like the old Ork truck, but not in a good way.
