>Forget the power of kitbashing and airbrushing, for so much has been forgotten, never to be re-learned. Forget the promise of progress and tactica, for in the grim dark future there is only Lust. There is no peace among the threads, only an eternity of depravity, kinks, and the fetishes of thirsting anons.

Building a Glaive at the moment but problem is my Night Lords are all tooled up for orbital/drop assaults with fliers and fast shit so it won't fit in the army at all.

Almost every loyalist legion wouldnt look too weird with a glaive except maybe RG and WS. On traitors SoH, EC, WB would be right, maybe IW and DG as well, but those two would be more likely to use a typhon or baneblade.

I'm still not sure if I should add graviton gun-multi melta landspeeders (because they look cool) and graviton cannon rapiers (because they look cool) to my Alpha Legion.

Downing all the spammed vehicles is a struggle but so far it appears that what I already have for anti-vehicle can (just about) manage it, so I'm worried it would be overkill in that department.

It's a bad feel. I have a pretty decent understanding of list making, but actually play testing my lists would help me find any glaring flaws they may have.

Dark Compliance Army, Word Bearers – 3000 Points

Provenances: Feral Warriors, Tainted Flesh – 70 Points

HQ: Legion Praetor, Master-Crafted Paragon Blade – 140 Points
Legion Chaplain – 85 Points
Force Commander, Power Armour – 60 Points
Elites: Gal Vorbak, 10X Brethren, 3X Power Mauls, Artificer Armour – 390 Points
Legion Contemptor Mortis, 2X Kheres – 180 Points
Legion Veteran Squad, 10X Vets, 2X Heavy Bolters – 200 Points
Legion Terminators, 5X Cataphractii, 5X Power Axes, Reaper Autocannon – 215 Points

Troops: Levy Squad, 50X Auxiliaries – 90 Points
Levy Squad, 50X Auxiliaries – 90 Points
Legion Tactical Squad, 10X Marines, Rhino – 160 Points
Militia Infantry Squad, 20X Auxiliaries – 50 Points
Militia Infantry Squad, 20X Auxiliaries – 50 Points

Fast Attack: Auxilia Thunderbolt – 200 Points
Auxilia Thunderbolt – 200 Points
Legion Seeker Squad, 5X Seekers, 5X Combi-Bolters – 205 Points

Heavy Support: Mutant Spawn, 5X Spawn – 135 Points
Legion Medusa, 2X Medusae – 310 Points
Auxilia Rapier Battery, 3X Rapiers, 3X LDA – 150 Points


This is my current list. I'm still putting the army together. The cultists are all quite literally meatshields that'll pack a small punch. Still, goal is to get them between myself and the enemy. It's not a perfect list, but it's fluffy. Still, glaring flaws can be fixed if tested.

>>49282338
They could have done that distinction with Rhinos and Land Raiders, but I know, this ain't ya pappy's HH, this is New and Improved HH(tm), now with Lime*. People are so used to the 40k aesthetics that playing 30k Army that has Marine vehicles will feel weird and frightening, and we can't confuse the customers or they won't buy stuff.

I am trying to figure out what vehicles and dreads to buy for my DG army. At the bottom will be a list of models if that helps in decided if certain units are good for me to get.

Are spartans still worth it with thier points increase or is something else now a better option?

Are the LR Achilles or LR alpha Achilles good?

Which is better lightning or xiphon?

What is the best unit to back in an explorator proteus? I was thinking a heavy flamer squad maybe.

Is a dread heavy list worthwhile with DG? It is fluffy but I am not sure it will be any good.

How good is the derdeo and what are its best weapons options?

New to 30k and just trying to figure stuff out. Here is a list of models I have so far. LMK what you think I need for support/transport ect.

mortarion
10 grave warden
10 deathshroud
10x lascannon marines
Leviathan Dreadnought (phosphex discharger, heavy flamers 1 drill 1 claw)
9x Space Marine Rapier Quad Mortar
Space Marine Apothecary Set
10x Cataphracti Terminators Came with calych sets, lan to make them spam plasma
2x Calth box Praetor
2x calth box chaplain as artificer praetors
calth box contemptor 2 kheres
calth box contemptor 2 fist in built graviton gun
10x autocannon marines
10x heavy flamer marines
38x marines with boltor, pistol, cc weapon
4x sergeant
6 flamer
6 melta
6 plasma

Whether they're good or not they're tough as hell and you can give the Achilles' mortar Phospex, which is about as Death Guard as you can get

Though termies are bulky, so maybe use it as a chem flamer support/heavy squad waggon

Power armor and arms inside of it would crack/buckle and provide no resistance whatsoever. Corax once palmed a grenade, punched the hand into an Iron Warrior's chest, and just let it go off. The chest is the thickest part of the power armor.

Granted, then he had to shake his hand a bit because his fingers were numb, but still. Shit is ridiculous.

Curze once backhanded corswain and pulped half his face and an arm.

The Lion punched Nemiel's head off.

There are a lot of Canon instances of weaponless Primarchs just flat-out ignoring power armor when they hit it.

The Praetor would do better with a plasma gun, and the Terminator squad doesn't know what it wants to do. And the things you'd want Hardened Armour for are AP3 anyway, and it's not like your HS squad should be in the open.

Maybe with the saved points you could equip the Praetor better, like giving him Digital weapons.

Most of the loyalist primarchs can't die, they are building up to an end times equivalent where the Emperor is ressurected in some manner, the loyalist primarchs presumed dead/are dead turn out to be fully fledged warped entities that someone reform In the corporeal realm.

So quick question. I am interested in starting White Scars. I was thinking of running a Chogorian Brotherhood list but I wanted to know if Jump Infantry count as infantry (would they get hit and run but have to start off the board or are jump infantry not actually infantry for the purpose of Rites of War?) I ask because Raven Guards Legion rules act as though they are separate so I am basically just looking for confirmation I am not missing something.
>>
>>49286878

You've only got two options. Loyalty, or Heresy.
>>
>>49286909
In my opinion Jump Infantery =/= Infantery where ROW restrictions are concerned, but there are certain people who are firm believers that that isn't the case because "A Jump unit follows all the rules of its main Unit type" etc.

A Chicken Sandwich is exactly the same as a Sandwich to those people I guess.
>>
>>49287061
The more I think about the Rite the more I think that it doesn't fit the style of army I want to run. I wouldn't really benefit from it much since it wants to force you to go bike heavy and I would prefer a list with more substance. Bikes seem built for MSU tactics in 30k and I would prefer Marine horde.
>>
>>49287061
>A Chicken Sandwich is exactly the same as a Sandwich to those people I guess.
So, a chicken sandwich is actually a pie? It's nothing but a more portable form of chicken that follows the rules of a sandwich, for all I'm concerned.
>>
>>49286878
I learned most of my Latin phrases from New Vegas. So I do happen to know what it means. It also makes me wonder if it could be done today.
>>
>>49287203
The thing is that it also follows the rules of chicken, which means it is not exactly the same as a sandwich, as chicken adds a number of limitations to the sandwich rules.
>>
>>49287433
>as chicken adds a number of limitations to the sandwich rules.
Don't you mean a Sandwich adds a number of freedoms to chicken rules?
Turning things into sandwiches literally increases their portability with almost no drawbacks. You can even add salad to them and eat on the move; a step above regular chicken + salad.
>>
>>49280487
What game is this and is it any good?
>>
>>49287403
pedicabo ego vos et irrumabo

>>49287506
I'd say Sandwich adds certain modifiers to chicken, with some very good advantages and few drawbacks.

So I asked about assault marines last thread, but I figure I'll ask again. How are they in 30k? I heard they used to be overcosted, but that they got a points reduction?

And what are the best way to use them? in squads of 10 or a 20man with an apothecary? My legion's alpha legion, if that matters.

I figured I'd ask to see if they were garbage or not, since I wanted to know if I should just make 10 for display purposes or 20 for fielding in game, since I'm using calth mk4s as a base.
>>
>>49287061

Its a sub set Anon. All chicken sandwiches are sandwiches but not all sandwiches are chicken sandwiches, just as all Jump Infantry are Infantry but not all Infantry are Jump Infantry.
>>
>>49287807
They are good enough as far as basic troops go, both Drop Assault Vanguard and Angel's wrath make them a nice core to your army. If you're legion isnt boosting their close combat capabilities then its good to add power weapons and the numbers depend on if you're deep striking them or not, not much to say as they are a fairly straightforward unit and it would really depend on the rest of your army.

>>49288528

I have a mainly CC based army- Ashen Circle, Gal Vorbak, Lorgar and a Spartan, two dakka mortis dreads, a heavy flamer squad, lots of tacs, and some chaplains. Should I try to rush him as soon as he lands?
>>
>>49288543

>>
>>49288565
In that case, paint some hazard stripes that are slightly disaligned.

If anybody is capable of having an OCD breakdown, it must be Rowboat Girlyman
>>
>>49288554
if you think you have the edge in cc, bum-rush his stuff asap. If you can rip apart his shooty units quick, do so. Chances are he will be coming to you, and the battle will be in your deployment zone. Drop pod armies have a tendency to rely on anything that can move+shoot so they can get thier first turn alpha strike advantage. The other solid knowledge is that only half his army can be on the board turn one, so make sure to kick as much of it off the board as you can as soon as it lands. Perhaps, if you were to put a tantalizing, high- value unit seemingly in the open while the rest of your troops wait to smash whatever lands to kill it.
>>
>>49288628

With the termites you need them to be dedicated to one idea. Either give them all vigil shields, which works great on the table and thunder gamers/power fist. Or give them comvi bolters for the +1bs bonus.

Breachers, while fluffy, only work well if you build your list around them or you're playing ZM. Either way they will shine if you drop points into them, they are to expensive to only have a minimal squad, replace them with vets if that's the case.

Skaven Boneripper's warpfire braziers. I just took the half that has the vapors pouring out of them and put them on biker bases. Each base is about 3" long, so two bases will make the 6" of tanglewire per 5pts. Plan on making total of 4 sets (8 bases) to equip my Wall of Martyrs Defence Line (clean 100pts.) Gives some protection from advancing enemies and since I'm running The Reaping, I can walk through that stuff without a problem.

Why Scorpius, if you want deleting blasts then a vindicator its only 5 points more for large blast ap 2 to delete deathstars. or swap the 2 for a single havoc squad with missile launchers

Are you using cortuses to get cheap contemptors or do you overcharge their engines to get the bonuses to help in CC. if so drop it to one, give it a drop pod, take chainfist and CCW, 2 gravitons if you can find the cost, and every tank you want to, will die

Some Primach armour was little more than Artificer armour with an Iron Halo and some extra stuff on it.
Alpharius' Pythian Scales is Artificer amour immune to Poison and Fleshbane.

Hell, Mortarion's Barbaran Plate is run of the mill Artificer + Iron Halo, even though it has a complete weed laboratory protuding from the back. It even melts on top of him once (not like he gives a fuck, though).

Both the SoH (Cataphractii Primus), IF (Eternal Warrior mantle), UM (FnP Artificer) and Salamanders (Eternal Warrior mantle) have better armours than Primarch Mortarion himself.

>>49291511
FW should standarize it and make the Master of Armour a Consul with MotL, one who would give the tank the Legiones Astartes rule, or at least one equivalent depending on their legion, kinda like Praevians.

Example:

>EC
The Tank becomes Fast, and gains Scout. If it was already Fast, it gains +2" to it movement.

>IW
All of the Tank's armaments gain Wrecker, and rerolls all blast templates.

And such.

This model is WS4. When tank shocking, the model also makes 2d6+3 s5 AP4 attacks if appropriately modeled with enough spiky bits. This model has the Talent for Murder rule, counting as ten models for regular tanks and 15 for superheavies. Superheavies make their attacks at s7 AP3 instead

It's a guitar? Stupid google.
I meant, you can see Iron Halos on Guilliman, Angron, Vulkan and Ferrus (both of the latter supercharged to 3++). And some others could be getting their invuln from other sources, like Kurze from those metal vanes on his back, the ones wearing terminator armour from their Cataphractii pauldrons (this is canon) and Lorgar from an early hidden Rosarius-like generator.

Mortarion has a bathtub on his back, maybe there's where he stores his Dark Sunburst guitar?

>>49292735
If anyone, blood angels should really get fast tanks given that they already had the baal predator STC by this point (was said that they found it during the great crusade). But, if EC have nabbed that, then looks like it's time for deep striking land raiders. Again.
>>
>>49293052
I'd say fast and assault for BA

Alpha tanks should gain Mutable Tactics, just like that. Maybe replace Counter Attack for Interceptor.
There's so much more to the Alpha Legion than Infiltration.
>>49293037

Now you're just being nasty.
Why not give the Superheavy a rule like the Typhon's Ramming? +1 to it's superheavy ramming, akin to their "Bulky things gain Furious Charge" thingy.

>World Eaters
Up to 10 models may embark on the tank as if it had the Open-Topped rule, this is in addition to any transport capacity the tank may already have. The tank gains a 6+ invulnerable save while 1-5 models are embarked this way, increasing to 4+ if 6-10 models are embarked. However, for each successful save D3 riding models are removed as casualties. Bulky or very bulky models may not be transported in this way.

Chem ammo should still be a choice, lest it hurts itself on ones.
Can we add "Ignores Vehicle Damage on a 4+, Explosion results instead do D6 Hull points of damage. The Tank may only Flat out half the distance"

And Salamander tanks can't flat out: They're using their gas reserves to fuel those flamers!
Also, Melta and flame weapons must reroll succesful Glancing and Penetrating hits, including Melta bombs.

>>49293205
Oh. Ok, maybe they'd indeed do such a thing.
>>
>>49293126
they did something similar to that in betrayer with at least titans.
and you should be able to transport either 2 units, or 1 big one if it already has transport capacity,
although i'd prefer size to vary upon chasis, rhino's had an external capacity of , letting you take those 15 man squads up

Probably going to run him as a Mortis with dual-Kheres or as a Cortus with dual DCCW. I don't have any fliers, so a Mortis would be nice. I fully magnetized his arms at the shoulder and elbow joints so I'll be able to swap with Forge World arms later too.
>>
>>49294155
Are Mortis Contemptors good enough as AA?
Also, can Deredeos intercept ground units? I was thinking about Plasma Carronade Doritos.
>>
>>49294178
Interceptor is not restricted to aircraft, however due it also getting Skyfire from the Helical Targeting Array it can only fire snap shots against ground targets.

If it's not using the targeting array, it won't have Interceptor or Skyfire, so it can't do a ground intercept then.
>>
>>49294224
That was precisely my concern: I wanted to use the Plasma Carronade Blast profile to intercept Deepstriking troops, Riptide style.

I guess the better way to safeguard those artillery batteries is, what, bubblewrapping?
>>
>>49294178
I've only played Zone Mortalis with my Fists (because I'm a super motherfucking slow painter) so I honestly don't know. I would imagine that a savvy opponent would do his best to explode it if it was the only AA in an army though? At least they have some decent armour up front and that invul save.
>>
>>49294238
Units with an Augury Scanner added on to it can do what you want.

Augury Scanners grant Interceptor against units that land within 18" of the model equipped with it.

For instance Legion Heavy Support Squads can take these for 5 points on their sergeants.

And Techmarines (and by extension Forge Lords) may also take them for 5 points, and you can attach those to quite a few things.

I think dual LasHavocs could do the deed. Before I consider other options, do Deredeo shields stack on top of each other? As in, a Havoc unit sandwiched between two Deredeos gaining a 5++.
And then you add the Voidshield...
>>
>>49294452
page 79 of the Legion Red Book: "and its benefits do not stack with the effects of other atomantic pavaises, or other special rules, psychic powers or items of wargear which boost an existing invulnerable save."

So no, 2 pavaises do not stack with each other, or anything else, other than an existing basic invulnerable save.
>>
>>49294515
So, people talking about 3++ daemons via pavaise and cursed earth are full of shit.
>>
>>49294591
nope, but 3++ Cataphractii would work, and I suppose Daemons of Tzeentch (as they have a 4++ by default) can do it as well.
>>
>>49294620

Daemons of Tzeentch have reroll saves of 1

I guess the only thing that concerns me is your command squad may activate "a talent for murder" by being outnumbered. Just because they could find themselves in a bit of a mirror match, and that might give the night lords the edge.

Oh, and unless I've missed it (entirely possible) there's no anti-air, but maybe you know the dude doesn't own a flier/your club doesn't do fliers.

You'd better give us a battle report on this match.

Well, Christopher Lee did play Dracula.
>>
>>49297759

He played everything. I don't think there is a role that he did not try at least once. Fuck, he played Fu Manchu (That MST3K Episode is a personal favourite)

I wish he had lived to do a voice in a HH Animated movie. His baritone would have been fucking great as the narrator. Imagine him saying 'It is a time of legend. Mighty heroes battle for the right to rule the galaxy. The vast armies of the Emperor of Earth have conquered the galaxy in a Great Crusade – the myriad alien races have been smashed by the Emperor’s elite warriors and wiped from the face of history. The dawn of a new age of supremacy for humanity beckons...'

One of the apothecaries joins that Command squad, so that already helps a lot. Plus the squad won't be outnumbered once my Praetor's done his thing ^^
Going to face a single flier at most. People generally don't like units that must start in reserves over here, as we all have been screwed by bad reserve rolls once too often.

An HH animated movie voiced by every cool old guy in showbiz would be fucking great.

Well 40k legends is advertised on Dave

>so Jeremy what have you got for us today
Well it's an Eldar jetbike that goes from 0-60 in 0.008 seconds

>>49297925

So will half that cast in the next few years. I'd still kill to see a few of then do VA work for a Primarchs film.
>>
>>49297925
I wasn't sure whether to go with "would be" or "would have been," given that some of the actors I listed were still alive.
>>
>>49297925
>even in death I still voice
Who knows maybe he did, and this heresy movie has been in production even before total war:Warhammer was
>>
>>49297939

So Clarkson needs to put on a bad mongolian accent and be the Khan?
>>
>>49297925
Drac ain't dead. He's just waiting for the time to rise out of his coffin to shed the blood of 4000 Saxon men once again. I'd imagine he would want it to be like a gladiator style match.

>The Khan
No, he's the tame racing Primarch.
>>
>>49297991

Some say he races around Terra nine times before Breakfast, every day. And that he challenged Angron to an arm-wrestling match, and won. All we know is, he's called the Khan.
>>
>>49297603
and maybe he washes the resin after he assembled and painted it. It is much easier anyways: just wash where the paint comes off.

>Legion in good tier
It was ok at best.
> Praetorian of Dorn in good tier
Until the last couple of chapters i would agree

>>49298523

Butthurt Alpha Legion Fag detected. Praetorian was god-tier throughout. I'm glad Alpha Meme is dead and buried.
