Lamenters. I've got a bunch of old stuff and realized I can roll it all into a Death Company - but I'm going to need more Chaplains, Primaris Chaplains, and Jump Pack Chaplains.

That's a good bit! The mauls I found are basically that textured trophy-looking pillar handle, so some of these look like it'll get me the rest of the way there. Before I get too far in, there's no "expanded rule of 3" I'm missing is there? It feels like I'm getting away with bullshit to use 3 jump pack Chaplains and then 3 Primaris Chaplains.

Green Stuff World has a confirmed history of being dicks and it's extremely likely that they're also nazi dicks. Even with an over-generous benefit of the doubt, they're not anyone you'd want to recommend in an OP.

Got another game in! We're just playing stupid lists right now to learn the game. my army was: 2 Cerastus Knight Lancers 3 Warglaives Eversor assassin And my opponent fielded: Tank commander Shadowsword 3 basilisks 3 more leman Russes It was awesome. I got tabled. It turns out you do actually need something to do in the shooting phase, and I never pulled off a triple tank shock turn. But it was pretty close on points and the eversor almost punched a basilisk to death. And after one lancer died, everything on the board was painted.

Kitchner posted:it means you have to learn 36 stratagems to understand how a "Tyranid" opponent may play. That's 100% not what that means, it means you're going to be asking your friend what strats he's got for two or three turns. It's also entirely possible there's four core army strategems and two detachment-specific add-ons.

Kitchner posted:Daft argument really, no offence. If you played against my Grey Knights or CSM with then 30+ stratagems in the book you'd have never really needed to learn more than about 8 maximum. Unless your friend completely wrote radically different lists each game in which case they can do the same now and you need to learn 36. You're essentially saying that you need to memorize like 2 million MtG cards because your opponent is using Red. The strategems aren't hidden. You can ask to see which six your opponent has before the game. You can look them up on third party sites and print a cheat sheet if you don't want to ask. It's still very better than it was.

DAD LOST MY IPOD posted:What I mean is that half of the codices will not be published by summer 2024. I base this on two decades of playing GW games and being familiar with their pace of release. I also believe that armies with codices will be at a significant advantage relative to those without because: My friend speculated that the index armies will keep the free upgrades, while codex armies will have to pay for their poo poo again. Which seems pretty likely IMO.

There was one release a while back that was also a print-on-demand type thing. They basically gave a two week window where anyone who wanted the thing would get it. (I think it was the cursed city reprint?) So they know it's a problem and they have a solution that works for the customers, but for some (presumably internal) reason they've only ever done it once.

There was, arguably, a time when "killing women because they're useless non-entities with lootable purity" was a palatable concept for horror. But that was before the incel movement targeted Warhammer-aged boys and men with uncannily similar messaging. And Elliot Rogers.
