About to go to sleep. to add on your ideas, I was thinking on adding large keys on the accordion, said keys being the symbols of the skills such as taunt, Stasis Bomb, Nova canon.

I won't be able to do everything, and it will take time, but I'll try to move on on requests. Give ideas if you wish here, there might be other drawfags lurking by.

Are there pictures of all the Battleships with various favors?

I want to get a Slaneesh battleship favor on the despoiler but I'm afraid it will look fucking gay like all the Slaanesh ships do.

So are Eldar players just plain stupid? I just had a game where the guy kept trying to boost into the middle of my Ork and Imperial fleets to do something (I guess trying to 180 turn on my back and line up for that stupid line attack.). Worst thing is that they do this in groups going for the bulk of my army.

Please tell me that at least a few Eldar players aren't this stupid. Restore my faith in the Eldar.

Eldar seems like that race that attracts 2 kind of people the 2 FAST 4 U edgy fedora lords who master them, or retards who played Imperials for so long they use eldar ships like them.

Honestly if you are going to fight against or with eldar you might as well just exit out and retry in pvsp unless your ally or enemy is using an Eldar battleship

So how do I beat voidstalkers without relying on gas clouds as IN?

Because the designers thought it would be a good idea for eldar to break literally every game mechanic. Their weakness was they were basically an escorts fleet, but armada went lolno and gave them an amazing battleship.

Tfw they literally have A Big Red Button But Better

>>46929264
It's fairly difficult to use MWJ offensively now, due to the nerf. I guess I could try torps, but it seems way too easy for Eldar to dodge them.

>>46929279
>knock off 2 health bars
Damn what do ya know, Nova cannons do the damage the tool tip says! Just be Glad eldar doesn't get an auto 2+ dodge on that too. Holofields are way shutter than they are on the TT.

>>46929296
While I find the Lunar a good all-arounder, I think the Tyrant is the better one for smacking other cruisers. Lunar is better as secondary support cruiser that can jump into any situation to help.

I know playing as Eldar can be fun making people assblastaed at your OP pulsars but playing as chaos is really more sweet seeing how you can be a dick towards allies and it can be called role playing.

>>46930096
You will want both desu. the stationary ones are good at denying gas clouds but force you into 10k range.while to probe is generally good scouting tool

>>46930096
It's really hard to say. If you are fighting other chaos the launcher probe is better.

But it might be better with the stationary sensor unless you are using a battleship(which you can't afford to get close)

Using the stationary you are fast anyway so you can fly away if danger got to close, besides if they pull a dick move like staying inside the clouds all day you will only get a brief moment where you can see them)not enough time to kite them)

Also the stationary is create for pegging eldar ships with so they can never hide.

>>46930118
Wacky antics are probably the best thing about multiplayer.

>>46930169
That and Eldar players that are just horrid. I destroyed an entire 3 ship fleet without even losing an escort.

I had 4 escorts that day. I love my cheap-ass LC.

>>46930199
I normally pack a nova cannon while eldar around. A lucky scatter on the nova cannon and eldar escorts cease to exist.

They probably just ban random people.

Anyone else feel the battlecruisers are under priced across the board.

Moreover what do you all think about the unit pricing overall

I mean in a 600 point game some one can take 2 cruisers and 2 battlecruisers plus escorts. I only just got my second cruiser and was fighting this guy, there was no way i was going to get anywhere near the transports

>>46930438

Had a try with Eldar the other day. Forced an Ork to disengage and tabled a fellow Eldar. No losses in either game, not even an escort. Seriously some of these players and their crude grasp of void combat strategy.

That said I don't think fresh Ork players have any real options for dealing with Eldar pulsar spam. The other Eldar player took a Shadow and a Solaris but my Solaris and Aconites dismantled his ship his Solaris and finished off the Shadow.

No. The game was pretty much DOA and doesn't have nearly enough players. The community is slowly dying. I doubt Focus is going to pay for new servers.

Servers don't die from there being less people on them. If anything it's probably doing better than they expected and they don't have the server to handle everyone.

>After nova nerf is the dominator complete shit now?

I mean, you can still get some blast damage off if they're close enough and it can one shot most escorts.

Other than that, I've already replaced a few of my ships with ships that have ordnance bays or torps. Only reason I kept my mars class is because it already has ord bays. Same thing with any Goff ships for my orks, they have stealthy moves now.

Has the game gotten really buggy since the patch for anyone else?

>campaign mission against orks
>one sword gets cut off from the rest of the group
>two ork cruisers decide to ram it from opposite directions
>sword gets destroyed and then the orks hit each other
Honestly, I think the ai for orks is perfect.

In the campaign, I saved Lukitar Station from the Blackstone Fortress, but the system is still considered "Destroyed" on my campaign map. What gives?

I just played a hilarious skirmish with the AI. It was Assassination, I was Imps and the AI was Eldar. In the bottom right corner of my deployment zone was a big barrier object, a bunch of crystal asteroids. I parked my flagship in the corner, put my battleship and other cruiser blocking one approach, and spent the entire battle watching the Eldar just ramming into the object or my warships, unable to mass pulsar fire or maneuver around to flank my fleet. It was great.

>>46934157
This, the new patch definitely made everything worse, as far as bugs and fatal errors.

THANK YOU BASED FOCUS

yea the cinematics are fantastic. It's one of the rare few games where I don't just mash escape when one comes on.

>Nova Cannon can't even take out enemy escorts within its area of effect if they're not exactly on the middle
I feel like the Nova Cannon is underpowered now. Especially how it scatters basically every time you use it; even if the enemy is tightly grouped it's so easy for it to miss.

What is a Dethdeala worth? Just wondering because I was offered one in a trade, and I just wanted to dip my foot in the water by getting a small BFG force since it sounds cool.

>>46934157
I cannot use Stasis Bombs from the orbital weapons platforms during Planetary Assault missions anymore.

Does failing the elf prince vs orcs mission have any big long term effects?

I'm tired of trying to save prince charming from being a retard and get taunted by filthy primitives for "losing" when I could easily destroy that one ork ship trying to warp out just 2 secs later than the fucking elves.

>>46935359
Haven't gotten that far, but the ally AI is so dumb. Like during Breakthrough missions, it goes straight for the defense platforms and gets raped by the AI.

>>46935369
I'm perfectly okay if they die as long as it doesn't automatically end the mission in defeat.

>"We must exploit our range advantage against these barbarians."

Having to baby sit pansy elves trying to ram is worse than following inquisitor through the asteroid field.

Just to be clear, I manage to keep him alive, he just warped out both times. The conversation after the mission went like

"Welp fuck these orks amirite? We're still counting on you to fight Failbaddon later, k?"

I just got hit by 3 direct nova cannon hits and basically auto-lost with no counterplay.

So this is how pulsars feel huh?

Are orks in the game yet?

>>46936481
...yes? The four starting factions are Imperial Navy, Orks, Eldar, and Chaos.

Space Marines are coming soon, and another unknown faction (probably Necrons, Tyranids or Tau) later this year. Personally I'm holding out for Necrons (who were actually in that area of space), with Tyranids and Tau getting a dedicated expansion dealing with the eastern fringe and the Tau second or third sphere expansion.

>>46936211

From what I've read, their only winning strategy is kiting with carriers

Is there really nothing else possible?

How do I counter it then? It does not even show as a blib on the board with the favour. I only see the pulsars when it unloads into my backside

>>46937604
If you play chaos here is how I counter them. Carnage cruisers, slanesh favor, warp jump and taunt. Take increased sight range favor(makes your warp jump longer and makes it easier to see the buggers) and armor piercing macros, then for the rest of the upgrades take tanky ones. The basic idea is you bait em in cuz hur durr chaos are carriers they can catch me, when you see em get close or the pulsar warming up, warp on top of them. Throw a slanesh favor on the battleship and chain taunt it, ramming it and tearing it up with the macros. If it somehow doesnt die through your taunts, just keep chain slaneshing it so it cant boost away or anything.

are gothics good?

>>46938317
They're good for different jobs. If you have a Nova heavy fleet (Mars and Dominators), then the prow lance helps make up for your lack of Gothic and Lunar lances. While in a torp focussed one, the mk2 adds additional weight to the barrages.

Reminder that if you sided with Eldar you are a traitor.

>>46938478

The Tyrant is still good for facefucking even once you get an Overlord. It helps to have a backup facefucker as IN.

Gothics are bretty gud because of their lance batteries, and the ship class has torps to back that shit up. It's more of a fire support unit in practice.

>>46938499
Reminder that if you didn't side with the Eldar, you are a bloody retard, whose actions caused the imperium to lose additional resources in conflicts that could have been avoided.

Anyone else realised how useless a lot of the crew upgrades are?

The Commissar and Master Gunner upgrades are fine as they are. The Navigator upgrade is fine but only really worth putting more than one point into if you're making a dedicated assassination/data recovery ship.

Now we get to the utterly useless ones: You put three points into Tech Priest and you get a grand total of 40.5 hull points over 45 seconds - utterly useless on anything bigger than a light cruiser and not even that useful on them too. And then the servitor upgrade, after three points it reduces cool down time by 12%, over 120 seconds that's about 15 seconds saved - pointless.

The tech priest upgrade should be increased or scale with the max hp of the ship it's on, and the servitor upgrade should be doubled.

>>46938888
but servitors are easily the best upgrade you could use, because its reducing the cooldown of literally everything you have.

>>46938888
I think they should make Troop Rating's count for offensive boarding actions, otherwise it's just not that enticing when you could get Servitors or Gunner/Commissar.

>>46938966
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=664335375
>Yep, that’s right. The TV of the attacking ship has NOTHING to do with the boarding operation. Only the defending ship can influence the chance to fail the boarding (and so the chance to succeed for the attacker) by raising its TV. The basic TV in the game is 60 for human (Imperium or Chaos) ships, 70 for the orks and 50 for the eldar. This means 60/70/50 % chance to fail the boarding and 40/30/50 % chance for the attacker to succeed.

>>46939073
This is misleading as there are many ways you can acquire more boarding actions and vastly improve your odds of getting at least one successful one.

>>46938966
Troop Value is the defending boarding stat.
Number of Assault Actions is the attackers boarding stat.

By default the TV of ships are 70 for Orks, 60 for Humans, and 50 for Eldar. This is the percentage chance each boarding action will fail.

By default, the number of actions is 1 for Lightning Strikes, 2 for Boarding Actions, or the number of Assault Boat squadrons that get through.

>>46939131
>the number of Assault Boat squadrons that get through
Not quite correct, since assault boats, and thus the assault actions they would initiate, can be destroyed before the rest of the squadron.

Hell, that'd be a funny, if harsh game mode: Let it appear like a convoy attack for one side, but he other player knows it's actually assassination or cruiser clash and gets a bunch of fireships in return for a points handicap. They appear as transports to the first player and he's only informed about the true game mode once the first fire ship gets detonated.

Will space marines be their own faction?

That does sound pretty fun. And I could've sworn that there were rules for Q-ships in the old BFG book as well, those would make a good addition.

>>46937222

Technically they have 2 options for the TT.

Black Ships, which were terrifying bastards in exchange for being worth a lot more points if you lose them.

Ordo Hereticus Ships, which could board as well as Space Marines.

Still not going to be a full faction. Instead, they'd likely be an upgrade for ships to make them space marine good at boarding.

>>46939346

Mind you, I'd love to see an option for an 'Ecclessiarchy Crusade Ship' or something. Ship upgrade that gives super morale to that ship and much better boarding as it's been blessed by the Eclessiarchy as the spearhead of a crusade.

>2 for Boarding actions

Not exactly. It depends on ship class. 2 for light crusiers, 3 for cruisers and battlecruisers, 4 for battleships. Orks get an innate +1 to all of these.

That captain made himself a legend in Battlefleet Gothic history.

Are people cheating in this game? I just added up the points value of my opponent's fleet in my last game and he had 344 points in a 300 point game.

>>46939605
By how i understand it, the game sometimes gives the other player more points if his track record is horrendous up to that point.

>>46939605
If you're higher level, they get extra points to compensate. But also yes, there are cheaters around.

>>46939618
What makes you think there are cheaters around?

>>46937721
Similar happened to me, got caught bouncing around inside an Ork ship with one of my imperial vessels until it blew up.

If you ally with them you gotta do few missions with them (they are like retarded lemmings btw).
If you don't, you get to purge xenos.

>>46939884
With the amount of attacks/turn you receive though, is it not better to ally with them so they (eventually) fuck off? In fact it's probably best to focus on Chaos and Orks early game wherever possible so the Eldar essentially babysit worlds until they are allied. unless there is some benefit to killing Eldar other than just for the sake of doing so?

And after a very short and exciting ramming action he just capitulated.
Can you even buy 40 escorts points-wise?

>>46939710
Pick whatever choice suits you, joining them gets you an extra deployment at the benefit of having an expert void combat.

I wished the traitor captain was harder to predict but the description they give of him before the decision was written in the HEY LOOK GUYS I AM WORSHIPING CHAOS 101 style

I thoroughly enjoyed the CG of the eldar prince's death, it is my favorite so I can never join the filthy xenos

>>46939992
Of course not. That's over 1000 points worth.

>>46935097
Fuck that, SoB cameos too?

>>46940015
Welp, I guess I should count myself very lucky.

>>46939964
If you lose all your ships you can only use boats?

So I have two questions.
1.) What is the full compliment of weaponry a Retribution can mount?
2.) What is the full compliment for a Luna?

>>46940262
In the vidya, or TT?

In Armada, a Retribution come stock with 3 pairs of heavy plasma macro batteries, 3 heavy lance turrets, and 8 torpedo tubes. All of the weapons have various upgrades (along with a power-ram), and it has space for 4 different skills.

>>46929244
My Lunar is named Ol' Reliable for a reason - it has always pulled its weight. Put on a nice mixture of offensive and defensive upgrades, and it'll carry that weight quite nicely.

Pretty small weapon load though.

Almost underpowered, I'd say.

>>46939418
Indeed there are.

>>46940831
Yeah that is because they are going to teleport on to your ship and remove it.

>>46940920
Heh, imagine closing on some transport that you've managed to split off from the rest of the fleet, you're miles away from the safe zone and all of a sudden it sprouts macros and a lance and blows your engines off.

>>46940831
well bombardment cannons are amazing for dealing crits so it's less bad than it looks. plus in the TT space marines got absurd leadership bonuses so idk how that will translate

>>46940920
Btw there's a typo in the stats.
It's supposed to have TWO shields as the text implies.

>>46941009
It's just the one cannon though, and chances are that it's mounted on the prow.

Aw shit, it's going to be like pulsars all over again.

>>46941071
Nah, the bombardment cannons were all Left/Front/Right on the tabletop, so they should have good coverage in the game.

>>46941157
Hm, might be set up like the Dauntless' lance, mounted on a pivot so that it can traverse.

>>46941197
If the devs maintain the accuracy that they have so far, it should have the same traverse as the Lance turrets on ships like Battlecruisers and Battleships, so damn near 270 degrees.

Space Marines are going to be quite the thorny prospect when they're released - tough armor all around, crazy boarding, Thunderhawks for additional hit and runs, and they're all set up for broadsiding with Bombardment Turrets and macro batteries. I'm assuming their points cost will be commensurate to their abilities, leading to their being outnumbered on a regular basis.

>>46941274
Would make sense, after all they're an elite force and the only time when a Space Marine can outnumber their enemies is on a Crusade.

Is there something I'm doing wrong in the campaign?

Everytime I end a turn like 3 new worlds fall even though I never lost a battle.

Is there a way to attack more per turn or something?

>>46941413
No, that's how it works. You never get enough deployments to defend all the locations every turn, though you come close later on, after you remove squig and deal with the elves.

>>46941413
You can reroll the number of mission you get by save scumming.
And you can reach a maximum of 4 deployment if you ally with the Eldar.

>>46941413
Welcome to the grim darkness of the far future. Your most realistic goal is preserving some semblance of what the Gothic Sector was before the war.

Worlds with multiple bonuses are things you want to reclaim first, if possible.
