I think I'm happy with this list

Rite of War: Hammer of Olympia
--HQ--
Golg - 175

--Elites--
Legion Contemptor Dreadnought Talon - 175
Upgrades: Multi-Melta

--Troops--
Legion Terminator Squad - 205
Upgrades: Power Fists x4, Heavy Flamer

Legion Tactical Squad - 160
Upgrades: Artificer Armour

Legion Tactical Squad - 160
Upgrades: Artificer Armour

--Heavy Support--
Tyrant Siege Terminators - 295

Iron Havocs - 185

Iron Havocs - 210
Upgrades: Missile Launchers x5

--Lord of War--
Knight Crusader 430
Upgrades: Rapid Fire Battle Cannon

What do you guys think?
>>
tac squads are 125pts, so artificer makes them 135pts. also make your contemptor a cortus, its cheaper and better value for what you get.
>>
>>49856692
You aren't using the Hammer of Olympia, since you aren't using Extra armoured Rhinos or 4 Heavy support choices. Furthermore, Golg isn't a Warsmith in the rules, so he can't use it on his own. In fact, since he and a Warsmith would be bringing two compulsory warlords, the only way he can use it is by bringing a Siege Breaker.
>>
>>49856651
I'd really like super jet bike raven wing units but honestly if dangels got 4 more rites with as many boosts as the current two I'd be in heaven.

Is the Prospero boxed game going to be accompanied by a MkIII plastic release like Calth did for MkIV?
How are the boxed games, play-wise? Are they decent on their own, or are they pretty much only good for harvesting the models?
>>
>>49857267
I imagine they will be eventually.
Remember it took a few months for the separate MkIV boxes to be released.
>>
>>49857267
Nobidy knows how this boxes game plays, since it's a different game from Calth. As for the standalone MK III, sure eventually. Pretty sure it was several months after Calth before the kits were released as standaloneboxes.
>>
Has anyone emailed FW yet and asked if there will be Breacher upgrade kits for BoP or would it be haram to ask before pre-orders are up?
>>
>>49857314
Probably better to wait till after preorder, just to keep up the official announcement pretense of x not existing till they say so themselves
>>
>>49857212

>>49856692
Don't expand upon calth, use calth to expand your forces
No point in taking Golg as you have a free elites slot, and if they're footslogging they'll get nowhere, also you need a warsmith praetor to use this RoW
Likewise, contemptor needs drop pod or other transport to not die, if you're going for melta then a cortus is better as you can run into that melta range one turn earlier, also take 50:50 melta:las in lists so you can counter armoured ceramite
If you're playing HoO it's either mass tank, mechanised tacs, or mass tacs, your list is none of these.
Whilst sharpnel bolts are fluffy, even against guard they fail, so take autocannons as they're free
Can't think of anything else for the moment
>>
>>49857267
The kits will eventually be sold seperately but it took awhile for them to come out, probably due to Rowntree's pressure, you can look at the blog to see how long it took specifically.
Haven't opened the rule book for calth, but silver tower was a decent board game

>>49857434
Would you put down 30 small blast templates each time you wanted to shoot?
>>
>>49857408
They should gain Ignores Cover and Shell shock. Maybe instead of Heavy 3 give them a blast template attack like >>49857434 says.
>>
I'm pretty safe having a walk on deredeo right
>>
>>49857457
Grave Wardens, Tyrant Siege Terminators and Seekers all got small blast weapons and can drop up to 20 small blasts per shooting phase.
>>
>>49857408
>>49857434
What about:

Olympia Pattern Shrapnel Bolt Cannon: S5 AP5 Barrage Small Blast Shell Shock Heavy 4

Can replace Heavy Bolters, Quad Heavy Bolters, and Twin-linked Heavy Bolters for free. May hit flying units if the unit has skyfire, irregardless of the rules stated in the Warhammer 40,000 rulebook?

This way they're worth taking and have pinning that makes everything majority Ld8 and 7.

Good or bad? Too OP or just right?

No, because that's op, and also domitar ferrum already have 'olympia pattern bolt cannons', and they pin already, so no need to put 'shrapnel' in there. Just do what I said in >>49857683
>>49857434 and then we get a unique that's a replacement, but not OP, considering we already have 3 uniques and 4 characters, and 2 useful RoW, and can take 2 vanilla ones technically in the same list.

>>
>>49857941
>>take units with furious charge and give them counter charge
Furious Charge doesn't activate on Counter Attack, and neither do Hatred, Venom Spheres, Hammer of Wrath, Rage nor other assault-related rules, as technically the unit counter attacking isn't doing the assault.
>>
>>49857974

That's mildly disappointing

I swear to god if people want to play White Scars and try to loophole their way out of the paintjob the same way people do with Imperial Fists I'll go ballistic

Those mongolian bastards pride themselves on their sexy white red and gold armour, if I see anyone saying "oh they only just got their armour they didn't have time to paint it" or "it was an alternate colour scheme that appeared on one miniature of a 1998 white dwarf" I'll come round to your house and eat your fucking minatures
>>
>>49858096
You'd need a way to lower enemy reserves other than Proteus + Coils + Skorr + Divide to Conquer WT. Then his reserves would need a 7+ to arrive, showing up until turn four.
Even without that, Orbital assault lists would weep, as they'd be stranded. And then you get better positioning through Infiltrate/Scout/Move through cover. It can be nasty

Well, if you're defintely going with Autek Mor's force, you could just keep your right pauldron (and maybe arm) red, and do grey faceplates/left arms. I mean, you could even mix it up between models, and cannobalize dofferent armour marks to spread around between models in a unit. Just keep the majority of the model black and you're good.

You could take Skorr and run Pride of the Legion to run a 'So many choices !' army.
Or the Coils + Skorr + proteus for the 6+ reserve rolls, or Alpharius instead of Skorr so that half of your opponent's reserves are actually yours.
Or take Dynat and two Saboteurs, people tend to rage when their 400 point spartan just blew up because some dick just strolled onto the table somewere.
Personally I have Meltabombs and a Powerdagger on every sergant. People who deep strike walkers despair at the fact that there is nothing they can charge that is incapable of blowing up their precious. The powerdagger is hilarious when you roll that Rending hit in a challenge against a sergant with powerfist and artificer.

Options enough :D

Love it, they're so flavorful
>>
>>49859224
I hope you are joking.
Without another specialist weapon they get 3 S3 AP3 rending attacks at initiative if they (counter) assault.

>>
>>49859368
I only run powerfist + dagger on units that actually want to end up in CC.

My Master of Signal once got 3 jetbike kills with his dagger, before the rest of the jetbikes failed the Ld test and were caught in the sweeping advance. That'll teach 'em to charge my unit of plasma's with MoS attached !

One other time a tactical squad sergant was the only one left after a squad of flamers shot at them. Flamers charged, my Sergant got 2 rending hits with his dagger, passes all his armour saves, wins combat, and wipes out the flamer squad in the sweeping advance.

This is why powerdaggers are amazing xD

My only issue is that the WS scheme doesn't really work with traditional color theory, especially if you use ivory as their base color as the novels suggest. I guess it does work if you use a cool (bluish) white - more of a very light gray. No such thing as pure white once you've started fighting.

World Eaters are basically the same but you don't see many complaints about painting them.

One of the mufflers from the back are missing, so I'm making two new ones out of a land raider redeemer's flamestorm cannons. I have to sculpt new wiring for the quad lascannons, add a bunch of extra plating and tracks to replace/cover up damage, and generally deck the thing out in customization to get it looking halfway passable.

So much fun.

so does this confirm no regular tacs in BoP, only vets?
>>
>>49861817
>no regular tacs

The fuck does this even mean? You do realize a tac is just a guy with a bolter, right? The box, just like the previous one, has options similar to the 40k tacticals which gives you the option to build them as whatever the fuck you want, tacs or vets or tac support or whatever the fuck, even destroyers!

Jesus christ man, think a bit.
>>
>>49861817
Are you thick?

>>49861817
They're just powere armored marines that can be built as whatever you want they are only called vets because the sprue comes with special weapons.

>>49861875
This will be literally the first box with minis I've ever bought. but I knew marines had a special box labeled Vets so I thought they'd be different units
>>
>>49860889
His/her/its BFG ships are pretty good. Not always perfect, but the originals weren't either.

>>49861817
The only difference is that vets get free combat blades (most people attach them to the backback) and have more weapon options. Build them with bolters and leave out the blade for a normal tactical marine. Or buy special weapon sets from FW and make them support or heavy support squads. (The set might actually come with some of those, not sure.) Oh, and people who buy legion-specific upgrade torsos and helmets usually use more of those parts on veterans - but it's purely a visual thing, no effect in-game.
>>
>>49861948
Still just a guy in power armour with a bolter, use your head sometimes.
>>
>>49861948
Rule number one about marines : the only difference you have are marines and terminators. What the marines are depends on how you paint them and/or what weapons they have in the unit. Or if there is a jump pack strapped to them.
>>
>>49861948
space marines are the same outside of the weapons they equip and what they're called in the context of the game. a space marine with a bolter can be a normal tactical marine, or a part of a devastator squad, or a sternguard, or part of a command squad. lots of options.
>>
>>49861980
>>49861974
In fairness to anon, in 40k the space marine veterans (vanguard and sternguard) actually are different models with a lot more bling than standard tactical/assault/devastator dudes.
>>
>>49855911
Freddy?

>>49857696
Good thing you can intercept with a Deredeo. Just gotta plan for it.
>>
>>49862034
That's a good point. In 30k you're on your own to add bling... which you could add to your normal tacs if you wanted to.
>>
>>49862034
And you can't use them as regular marines or regular marines as vets?

People been using DA vets as regular DA dudes for years without anyone having a problem with it.
>>
>>49860552
No but with the good breacher shields though
>>
>>49857974
Hatred does, it activates in the first round of any combat. It's like Preferred Enemy.
>>
>>49862201
I thought intercept only worked for deepstrike
>>
>>49862258
no
>>
>>49862258
Also works for aircraft entering the field, or stuff driving on.

From the Rulebook:
"At the end of the enemy Movement phase, a weapon with the Interceptor special rule can be fired at any one unit that has arrived from Reserve within its range and line of sight. If this rule is used, the weapon cannot be fired in the next turn, but the firing model can shoot a different weapon if it has one."
>>
>>49862201
>>49862258
So yes this works with a Deredeo, there's only 1 downside. Activating the tracking system also automatically grants it Skyfire, so it only hits land units on 6s, as it will be snap shotting.

Looking for some last minute feedback before I order 2 Vindicators off eBay:

World Eaters, Crimson Path RoW

HQ

Kharn, Legacy of Blood, 190 pts

Gahlan Surlak, 110 pts

Troops

10 x Inductii, extra CCWs, 145 pts

10 x Inductii, extra CCWs, 145 pts

Elites

5 x Tartaros Terminators, Power Fists, Combi Weapons, Anvillus Dreadclaw, 350 pts

10 x Marksman Veterans, Rhino with Multimelta, 210 pts

10 x Marksman Veterans, Rhino with Multimelta, 210 pts

5 x Red Butchers, Devoured with 2 Chainfists, 295 pts

Heavy Support

1 x Vindicator with Machine Spirit, 145 pts

1 x Vindicator with Machine Spirit, 145 pts

Lord of War

1 x Stormlord with Space Marine Crew, 1 pair of Lascannon Sponsons, 555 pts

2500/2500

Only the two Vindicators and Stormlord would start on the table, Dreadclaw would arrive behind the enemy line on turn one and the Veterans would outflank *hopefully* turn 2. The Inductii squads would ride in the Stormlord and the Butchers + Gahlan + Kharn would make a mini deathstar. The only thing I'm unsure about at this point are the Terminators in the Dreadclaw, the Vindicators seem like a good idea but I'm open to suggestions.

I don't know whether I have OCD or not but I really like symmetrical armies, which is why I have 2 x Inductii squads, 2 x Vet Squads, 2 x Vindicators....
>>
>>49862618
problem is they've got the arms molded on, so only really work with mk4+
>>
>>49862674
Well how much of the arm can you actually see ? Just a little bit of the elbow piece poking out from under the shoulderpad, and maybe more of the actual arm when you look down onto it from directly above of the marine.

But if even just that triggers your autism or you're not willing to clip of the molded on arms and just glue the shields to MK III arms your loss :P

I didn't give many upgrades to the dudes. Veterans don't have any close combat upgrades like melta bombs or power weapons, Inductii just have the extra CCWs because I want to model them with bolters and attach chainswords/axes on the side...basically just not pimping my sergeants/squads I can fit more dudes.

>>hey, I know my dudes are painted as word bearers, but I'm using alpha legion rules with gal vorbak representing gal vorbak

It'd be a great thing, but it'd be difficult with the way Total War currently works. It's hard to picture massive bricks of marines marching at one another with no cover as working or fun. Still, with tweaks, it could be great.
>>
>>49862851
Yeah, that one actually does, in fairness, if you pick infiltrate as the mutable tactic given RG get it normally. I was joking, but if someone did a good conversion of the mutated raven guard, something they'd put a lot of skill and effort into, I would actually be okay with playing it.

>>
>>49862652
Suppose your opponent has a pair of Medusas in one corner and a team of quad mortars in the other. What do you do? You can drop pod onto one of them (probably the quad mortars, since they really have to be assaulted to be killed) but you don't really have anything that can shoot the Medusas at range except the Stormlord's sponsons. I'd look into taking a Lightning, or a Vindicator with laser destroyer array.

Maybe some combimeltas

>>49863394
on whom, 2 5man squads of tartaros have volkite chargers, one suppourt squad is 9 plasma, the others mela, and my 2 mortis have ass cannons
>>
>>49863367
The answer for Medusas would be trying to clip both with a single Vindicator blast, or just one. Machine spirit would mean they'll both have effectively a 36 inch range. The lascannon sponsons are sortof my backup plan in that regard. for any sort of mortar team/rapier battery I'd be hoping my sniper vets could outflank on the side they're on, otherwise I'd move the dreadclaw with the terminators inside to assault it turn two if all else fails. my goal isn't to have both entire armies in the enemy deployment zone, but to make use of terminators/veterans with implacable advance deep striking/outflanking so they can at least shoot FROM their deployment zone so they can get FNP and hold objectives. the deathstar in the stormlord is a giant distraction kharnifex.

Nah, the IW just didn't care really. The WE hated Angron, but the IW did what they were told. If they were told to hold the line, then they were going to hold that line, even if your brothers decided that you weren't going to.

Not the weirdo going on about the breachers but I just bought a 5 man squad. I will also buy BoP and I am considering a Mastodon. Thing is I am not sure I want to play 30k as I don't know what army I would play. I want MkIII armour exclusively no matter what.

But Thousand Sons had no need for breachers, they just turned any squad that was convenient into breachers with kineshields thanks to psykers :^)

>>49864520
He's probably just being thick. You can use the bolter arms supplied with any plastic kit with ease, and when cutting the shield from the arm leave the hand in place.
I would know, because I have a 40k command squad with those boarding shields as storm shields, so I'm looking at how it can be done right now.

Of course it is, where have you been? Inferno got postponed AGAIN last open day, release date will be sometime next year, probably jan or feb during one of the first open days.

>>49864930
considering their small size and elitist nature, probably not

but given FW and GW wouldn't want to alienate the people who play thousand sons but don't like psykers, I'm sure they'll get at least one mundane praetor
>>
>>49865266
I didn't think their small size was still a thing. I recall when the hardback of A Thousand Sons came out that the numbers had upped them. not to mention it was mentioned in the Raven Guard write up that the RG are the smallest legion as of Isstvan.

You people really need to work on your reading comp. He asked if a praetor could be a non-psyker, not that there would be no psykers in a unit. I know on the TT hyper specialization is the only way to actually win, but the lore allows for a little more nuance than that.

I haven't really been paying much attention since my TS don't have rules yet and I only recently got enough painted to start looking for small games. I figured since BoP was coming out, Inferno couldn't be far behind.

No, they just released Russ and he doesnt have rules until Inferno, same thing happened with Guilliman as he was released without rules before Tempest came out.

Only Custodes and SoS rules will be on the WD.

>>49865226
My fear is that they postponed it because they have a new terrible 8'th edition ruleset that they want to keep it in line with.
>>
>>49858504
The way I see it is this.

The Dark Angels have black over silver, for a metally tint.

The Raven Guard have black with white highlights.

The Iron Hands have black over grey.

Subtle differences, but they're there.

Paint what you want, but if you're going for "historical" accuracy I wouldn't stray too far from colors that the emperor wore.

Black over anything will just result in pure black, because it's a very opaque color. Unless you're talking about glazing in which case DA would just become "dark silver" and IH would just be "dark gray". Also, black with white highlights is as stark a contrast as humanly possible, which would look absolutely ridiculous.

If you don't like DA gay jokes, then I'm going to do DA Illuminati-traitor jokes, and if you don't like those, I'll then do DA forest jokes. What I'm trying to say here is no matter what aspect you want to focus about, I'll still won't take it seriously, because this is a TOY SOLDIER GAME.
Some love the modelling, others the novels, others the tactica, yet in the end we can accept it's a game and a nice setting with lots of oportunities, and if people won't take it seriously then there's nothing we can do. And that is ok.
