It was a custom 16,000 point apocalypse scenario I wrote to try to make the game less of a superheavy slugfest and give lighter units more importance in the early game.

It was fun, but ran into some problems late when I realized it was impossible to make a reserves-based game on this scale - there just isn't enough room on the table edge for reserves to come in after a few turns.

As far as the narrative goes, it was effectively a draw. Orks and Imperium split the objectives 50/50, Imperium had the air Orks had the armor. We had to end it with two turns still to go before the store closed.

How much is a warp charge worth? Generally speaking, you can purchase them for 25 pts, but they come attached to tax units. So what kind of units should I be buying to get lots of warp charges?

It you want a psychic based army just commit to it. Every unit should be giving you warp charges or be something you are going to buff with warp charges.

could somebody provide the post where Reziel said about plastic SoB?

and the anon who said he lost his job?

>>50727715
Statistically, Magnus's points in hydras (that is to say, 9 of the bloody things) should blow him out of the sky in a single turn (well, 6.75 wounds vs the 7 on his profile). Where you get 9 hydra models, or what you do with them afterwards, is your problem however.

>>50727924
I want to make an army that focuses on leadership. Slaaneshi psykers can give me a lot of good penalties for low leadership.

>>50728020
You could mass aircraft. They get full BS against air targets but aren't left looking retarded when the sky is clear.

>>50728067
Night Lord Decurion with Hellturkey formation and an allied Slaanesh Cycloptian cabal. Maybe throw in some Dark eldar or Harlequins.

>>50728067

It's a nice idea, but please bear in mind that the majority of armies in the game either have ATSKNF or Fearless.

>>50727918

Looks good. How long did the game take to play?

Forgive me if I am being stupid guys, but where does the game lay out what counts as a sonic weapon and what doesn't for Kakophoni formation bonuses?

And stuff like the new symphony of pain spell.

Like, I get the sonic blaster, blastmaster, and the doom siren, but what about the 'sonic' witch fires on the slaanesh discipline? We haven't been counting them as sonic weapons, but I wanna make sure we aren't shorting my mate.

I think that is the thing about worshipping khorne that is really unique from the other gods. 'Zerks are really just there for the glory.

>>50728187

Only the Kakophoni get the sonic weapons bonuses though, right?

>>50728286
Helfrost.
It has about 5% chance to remove him from play.
Twitch is spamming cancer in response

>>50728166
Khorne works a little like Crom in Conan - he values individual strength and expects his followers to rely on themselves and not him. He still has a few boons he offers though, like weapons and artifacts that help limit sorcerors to even the playing field.

He also makes you angry. Like, REALLY fucking angry.

>>50728291

>>50728154
Did the thousand wrongs player not fly magnus?

>>50728286
The flying wolfbus scored a lucky wound with his Helfrost Cannon and Magnus rolled a 6 on his toughness test. All told that was about a 3.5% chance of happening.

Fucks sake, guys, we wanted to demonstrate their shitty rules writing and we managed to do it in the opposite direction, and the guy who wrote Magnus' rules is just as happy as the rest.

Are you allowed to take the GSC formations outside of the Cult Insurrection Detachment?

I want to run Tyranids with GSC allies (As I don't' have enough of the latter to run them as an army on their own) and was planning on taking the Subterranean Assault formation. However, I'm not sure if you're allowed to take it outside of the Cult Insurrection.

This is probably a stupid question, but I'm new to formations and stuff.

One of the silliest things I've seen in a GSC list is running 2 First Curse formations at once, one from the Insurrection, one standalone, and the Broodlords join the Genestealer units from opposing formations so both are Shrouded on Turn 1.

Lord goes with bikes and run in the center to buff cultists. Priest goes with a cultist unit that doesn't infiltrate and move fast with mindveil to buff them.

Decimus, Prophet of the Night Lords - 225 pts

WS6 BS5 S4 T4 W3 I5 A3 LD10 SV 2+/4++

Warlord Trait:

* One With The Shadows (Re-roll Cover Saves)

Wargear:

* Bolt Pistol
* Frag Grenades
* Krak Grenades
* Malcharion's Bolter (Range: 24", S: 4, AP: 4, Assault 2, Twin-linked)
* Stormbolt Plate (2+ Armour Save and +1 to Cover Saves)
* The Blade of Angels (Melee, S: User +1, AP: 3, Master-crafted, Rending, Shred, Two-handed)

Special Rules:

* Fear
* Fearless
* Navigator Blood (Can re-roll Perils of the Warp)
* Night Vision
* Precognition (like Sigil of Corruption)
* Psyker Lvl 2 (only Divination)
* Seer (like a Spell Familiar and casts Divination powers on a 3+)
* Stealth
* Veteran of the Long War

>Remarks

I dropped Champion of Chaos because I think it's Night Lords fluff rape.

Due to my calculations this Character and his Wargear is worth about 270-280 pts but can't be more expensive then
Abbadon can we? So I settled for a (fair?) 225 pts. Willing to go higher but compared to other "canon" Lords I think it's fair.
He's got normal Chaos Lord stats with great Sorcerous abilities and nifty wargear. But still I'd probably keep him out of combat
and rather cast Divination spells, so the cool sword is often wasted.

My goal here is to create a character faithfull to the fluff, not OP for the sake of it and accepted by most non-sperglords.

Tell me what you think. I'm in the process of building him and want to bask in /tg/s wisdom.

Always happy for feedback.

This is awful, watching this I hoped they would balk at their own shit but instead they're just rolling around in it.

>>50728519
I dunno if Helfrost itself is the problem so much as how prolific it is. If it were only on a handful of weapon options it wouldn't be so bad but when you can mount them on a flying troop transport's scatter gun it gets a little retarded.

>>50728584
Aye. My Skitarii have something similar (Init test, but otherwise identical) as a relic CCW that has no AP and is S6 at most, and I've found that nice and balanced.
The wolves have it as a special weapon at range on S8AP1 weaponry that can be on flyers.

>>50728565

That's what happens when you take a 650 point model to a 1850 point game and lose it to random chance.
Now what would have happened if instead there had been 650 more points of terminators/rubric marines/Tzaangors?

>>50728654
He still would have lost because 650 points more of terminators is like 10?

I have a sneaking suspicion that they told the guy to not use the stuff like Gaze of Magnus.
I mean, the Helfrost was insane, but he could have put several D shots into Grimnar and didnt.

Lord on a Demonic cyborg-horse? WHFB Chaos Knight models are pretty nice.

I think I've already replied to you yesterday, but I'd swap the Helbrute for Havocs w Autocannons and run the Dark Apostle naked, attached to the Havocs. He doesn't get Infiltrate anyhow, a Helbrute without formation bonuses is meh, while Havocs can put out some long range firepower. And I'd give Plasma to the Chosen, while Melta (and combi meltas) to the vanilla CSM.

Veteran of the Long War seems a bit odd, given his age fluff-wise, but I guess it's compulsory if you want to use the NL traitor legion stuff.

>>50728491
It's fine if you don't plan on the Lord to do much else except buff, and I'm not sure how much good the Helbrute will do you but I get it he's a tax. Overall list looks okay.

Everything is Word Bearers. My Sorcerer joins a cultist bunker, and my Lord either joins another Cultist unit or the Spawn; the HQs grant Obsec and Crusader, and the Sorcerer can either summon or buff. The Lord took Scrolls so he could be a "backup" Psyker, and I find the spell lottery is fun. I might just drop it for more Spawn though, but meh.

Everything else is MSU and summoning as a means to provide attrition.

What's more fun? Playing a shooty army or playing a stabby army?

Wouldn't I have more chance of buffing the cultists if I brought two characters in the front?

Oh fuck that's BRILLIANT.

>>50728840
Neither

>Play shooty army, sit in one place and dont move, shoot until enemy is dead

>Play choppy army, run towards static gunline and get shot to death and lose

>>50728857
So the best option is to play a shooty stabby army?

>>50728255
But what would constitute this "martial skill"? Speed? Strenght? Resilience? All those are already covered by the other gods.

>>50728786

I think it's pretty obvious what he meant.

They stopped talking about the game and just started chatting shit.

They stopped talking about the game because the shitty rules meant their new army of the Month got tabled before the end of Turn 3.

It went from a Battle Report to dank memes to avoid the subject matter

>>50728840
Shooting is as simple as taking guys with guns.

Stabbing requires a bunch of shit to get into rng assault range, and hope that you don't lose too many in overwatch to where your charge is canceled, then get wiped out by more shooting on your foe's turn while you're sitting duck.

>>50728849
You can Infiltrate the Cultists with AL, but not your Characters. And they are mostly there to get on objectives/in the enemy's way, probably die, and then respawn.

>>50728787
>casually and for narrative
They straight up forgot half the rules.
At one point they had a tactical squad charging out of a rhino.

>>50728881
Both of those sound terrible. Why play this game if that's all there is to it?

>>50728869
Or just play daemons/GSC, they're really good stabby armies that doesn't bother with the running part.

>>50728909
Daemons just summon though. Which honestly sounds kind of boring.

>>50728905
That's a question that this board struggles with everyday.

>>50728905
There are a few armies that can assault before even getting shot. GSC, Blood Angels and World Eaters.

40k has the best backstory from all tabletop games. If it weren't for that, nobody would play with such shitty rules.

>>50728909
>>50728935
Is assaulting fun if you don't get shot before doing so?

>>50728905
Because some people are pessimistic.

I have great fun playing a close ranged shooty Admech with melee gear on my Skitarii sarges, backed by Infiltrators and Dragoons with some other things like Dunecrawlers and Inquisition for some fire support and psykers.

March forwards, firing on the move, take their charges where you have to, then hit those with dedicated melee and retreat the Skitarii, firing whenever you get the chance, covered by Shrouding from psykers.

>>50728944
I like it.

Daemons swarm all over the enemy with fragile but dangerous troops, slowly consuming his army.

>>50728905
Because it's fun

>>50728926
And BA only if you wanna lose all the special rules that you get being part of them.

>>50728874
Skill. As in the learned ability to fight, knowledge of the movements and actions that are effective in a fight and the instinct and muscle memory to use them. KB are WS5. Bloodthristers are WS 10.

Speed, strength, and resilence are part of that and heightened by Khorne's influence, but they aren't blunt tools in the matter of the other gods boons. Nurgle makes you so tough it doesn't matter what you do. Khorne gives you just enough hardiness so that you can express your martial skill, take skulls and spill blood.

>>50728986
>And BA only if you wanna lose all the special rules that you get being part of them

>>50728877
So Magnus should just be invulnerable? He who never dies, the 650 point win button?

If you don't charge, you don't get the +1 I and S

>>50728952

Been playing Sisters for 12 years. Close range shooting is all we got. My friend likes to watch and commented that the game would always look bad for me until turn three, then it would take a sharp, dominating swing in my favor because I would unload into that sweet spot.

>>50729020
So charge then, you've got heavy flamers to discourage counter charges.

>>50728905
>if that's all there is to it
It isn't

>>50727725
>Putting sorcerers anywhere near, much less in, a Khorne army

Absolutely disgusting

>>50728940
>summoning wimpy horrors
Pssh. My horrors straight in, throwing warpfire, unleashing novas, AP2 lasers, or even the mighty D.

Maybe your horrors need to hit the sorcerer gym.

>>50728992
But skill alone is useless if you can't hit, damage, or resist your oponent. How does that compare to shrugging off bullets, being sanic fast, or blasting the enemy to bits with mind-bullets? Those three can reliably compete with each other. "Skill" can't.

And ironically, skill goes out of the window when you're so mad you don't twice about running into a gun-line with a chainsword. It's cool in a very retarded way.

>>50729018
Maybe the game should have less weapons that even have a chance of instantly gimping a big expensive model?

>>50729034
No he's trying to explain that they're turn 1 charge/assault from deep strike is disordered so they lose their only benefits over vanilla marines for doing it.

>>50729087
Who the fuck cares? Its still a charge with fucking thunder hammer termies on turn 1

>>50729079
>>50729018
More importantly, maybe the game shouldn't have weapons that instantly remove big expensive models that have a rule that allegedly prevents them from being instantly removed.

Was I wrong?

>>50729018
The real culprit here is that they put ID everywhere, so in response they had to put EW everywhere, so in response they had to put model-removing rules, but then people got salty about that so they added a new rule that makes it so that "if this would remove a model it only takes 1d3 wounds instead." Except Magnus doesn't have that last one.

The fact that Magnus was OHKO'd by helfrost on stream is just one of many sad consequences of this escalating arms parade.

Berzerkers are WS5 because they literally only train for melee. Khorne had nothing to do with it.

>>50729079
Maybe Magnus shouldn't be able to get a 2++ rerollable and become statistically invincible to anything but a very lucky D shot, then?

It's honestly the 1Ksons players fault for letting him die. He should have had the buffs up on his save.

>>50729023
Pretty much that. When I run War Convocation I just dakka on stuff from almost exactly 30" all game hiding behind a 4+ or 2+ cover save or having everything BS6 or twin-linked.

I got really bored of that. Now I play infantry Skittles and actually play with the Chaos peoples and the Nids.

Had the privilege of playing Sisters once. We spent T1 and T2 being fairly ineffective, I blew up a couple Immolators, an Exorcist popped one of my dunecrawlers, then all hell broke loose. I shot nearly every SoB vehicle on the board when I hit 18" or 12", Vanguard exterminated some jump infantry girls, then my entire front line exploded into flames and my melee troops went down to heavy flamers.

Game ended with a Dominus and an Infiltrator Princeps duelling Celestine and scattered squads everywhere taking potshots.

It was almost exactly a draw, I won by one point because it was Big Guns Never Tire and my HS 'Crawlers was squadroned when the Exorcists were not, so I got one more VP. Great game, I will have to challenge that guy again if I see him.

>>50729103
Wow. A charge with models that strike at I 1 and still have to not mishap during scatter and make their charge roll and can be tarpitted eternally with some fodder bubblewrapping the things you don't want charged.

But models that can deep strike and shoot and erase whatever is in their sights without worrying about over watch or getting hit first in melee or being blocked by chaff, that's fine, right?

>>50729139
This, to be honest.
Not only did he fail to protect Magnus, he passed up a chance to give Logan the D for no good reason.

>>50729072
You completely ignored my point. And it's not like Khorne is going around favoring six year old starving orphan girls.

>>50729109
What you should have done was shriek like you were in horrible pain any time your models were touched. Or shit yourself and thrown the feces at offenders. Either option would be acceptable at an autism exposition.

>>50729109

>>50729072
>But skill alone is useless if you can't hit, damage, or resist your oponent.

Skill is what you use to hit, hurt, and avoid getting hit by your opponent.

Nurgle makes hits not hurt, Khorne makes you good enough to fucking block.

Slaanesh makes you inhumanely fast, Khorne makes you agile enough to catch or dodge when you need to.

Tzeentch give you psychic powers, Khorne gives you shit you can be certain won't summon a daemon to murderfuck your whole army and relics that make stupid psychic shit not work on you.

And rage =/= senseless. Khornates are just as capable of holding a position and raining death from autocannons.

>>50729276
Nope.

>>50729286
I meant it as in a person with an equal power level to yours that has recieved a blessing from one of the other gods. Say, you have four traitor Guardsmen that have been blessed by one god each. One gets Psyckic powers from Tzeench, one supernatural toughness from Nurgle, one supernatural speed from Slaneesh, and the last one gets skill and rage from Khorne.

The Khornate one is the weakest because skill is nothing compared to all else.

Do you have an online gallery of your army? ALso respect for owning like 100 heavy weapon teams.

>>50729361
You're saying that as if it's self-evident.

That Khorne guardsman can hack and chop the Nurgleman, and Nurgleman will die. It won't hurt, but he will.

The Tzeentchman is just BTFO instantly; Khorne don't tolerate that psychic shit.

The Slaaneshman and the Khorneman are the most evenly matched, because while the Slaanman is faster, that's basically all he's got. The Khorneman can hit harder and take more hits.

And against non-Chaos opponents, Khorne doesn't rely on supernatural shit that can be easily fucked with by disrupting a ritual or holy medicine or flashbanging the sense-freak.

If a mortal man wants to beat a Khorne Cultist, there are no tricks. No shortcuts. They will fight, and the Khorne Cultist is stronger.

>>50729309
Fair points, but why is none of that reflected in the rules, and where is it even mentioned in the fluff? Every single codex/Black Crusade entry for Khornate blessings I've read so far only say they make the bearer "even more angry" or "ferocious" (which really just means more aggressive in combat).

>And rage =/= senseless. Khornates are just as capable of holding a position and raining death from autocannons
Only at first. Though it makes little sense to serve Khorne if you're not planning to fight in close combat.

Because it's really hard to tell where the line is between Khorne's divine blessings and the guy you're fighting just being really good at what he does, so most fluff just refers to the obvious shit like screaming.

And it's represented in the rules by Khorne Marines and Cultist not being removed from the table if another god's forces are placed.

Despite being a berzerker, Khorne's influence is subtle. And it's subtle because, like a good father, Khorne only gives you what you need to succeed. He doesn't shower you in stupid extravagant gifts to wow and amaze everyone, because he doesn't care what other people think of him, and neither do his followers.

All that matters is their glory, which is measured personally, and their rage, which is worked out in battle.

>>50729472
You have more time and dedication in this army then i ever thought id see emperor bless you anon.

What's wrong with the Forsworn Knights detachment?

>>50729156

Sounds about right. First few turns are nothing but some Exo pelting and a few multi meltas. Then comes T3 like a freight train.

>>50729429
>That Khorne guardsman can hack and chop the Nurgleman, and Nurgleman will die. It won't hurt, but he will
The Nurgleman just needs to land a single hit to fuck up the Khornate, while nothing short of hacking the Nurgle guy to pieces, cutting of his head or burning him to cinders will work. In a melee fight with swords/bayonets/chainswords the Nurgle guy has a massive advantage.

>The Tzeentchman is just BTFO instantly; Khorne don't tolerate that psychic shit.
The only guy in the universe that in inmune to psyker shit is Kharn. Even for some moderate resistence you need a Brass Collar of Khorne, which are rare to say the least.

>The Slaaneshman and the Khorneman are the most evenly matched, because while the Slaanman is faster, that's basically all he's got. The Khorneman can hit harder and take more hits.
He also has faster senses and reaction times. Pain feels good instead of crippling. You can't win when the enemy's attacks are literally too fast to block.

>If a mortal man wants to beat a Khorne Cultist, there are no tricks. No shortcuts. They will fight, and the Khorne Cultist is stronger
I agree with that much.

I was looking at getting back into 40k using recasts since I can't afford GW outrageous prices. But then I saw what happened to the codex.

I just want horde Tyranids to be viable again. Nidzilla is fucking gay and so unfluffy. I want to drown my enemies in gaunts and actually stand a chance of winning.

Also bring back 5e(I think it was) genestealers. Getting 3 attacks on charge with scythes and all attacks having rending was fucking dank, especially if you had a broodlord in there, it vaporised anything it touched.

I remember there was this eldar player who had this bullshit deathstar unit of shining spear with a autarch in it geared to the walls.

>Mfw he was so confident he let my genestealers get into assault range

Rip eldar fags.

>>50729491
That's discounting the fact that Khorne Cultists don't fight naked. They're berzerkers, not savages. They've got shit like flak armor and explosives. And guns.

It looks like the best defenses against Magnus are play the mission/kill his support, bring a Culexus or Sisters of Silence to ward off Treason of Tzeentch, or luck out and hope you get the Librarius power that lets you hit an enemy Psyker, and force it to only manifest on 6s next turn.

Daemon Knights are cheesier. Inv saves for being Daemons, more upgrades etc,

But Renegades don't need a CAD and are not limited to the Errant/Paladin variant.

>>50729532
>The only guy in the universe that in inmune to psyker shit is Kharn

Then how come he lost to Abaddon? Checkmate.

>>50729508
That philosophy is fine and all, but it doesn't really answer my question. You have not yet provided any specific examples aside from:

>And it's represented in the rules by Khorne Marines and Cultist not being removed from the table if another god's forces are placed.
What does that evem represent? MoK buffs attacks through the Rage speacial rule, which just means the guy is mad and as such starts being more aggressive but burns out quickly in prolongued combat.

>>50729605
Shitty author and shitty series aside, Abby didn't use psyker shit in that fight AFAIK.

>>50729604
Ahh is that the FW one? Since it was "Chaos Knight" I just thought we were talking about the Renegade.

I do like how you can go dual Gatling or dual RFBC on the Renegade Knights though.

>>50729638
Abaddon's sword is magical. If Kharn was immune to psychic stuff, it wouldn't be a threat him since it cannot hurt him but it did hurt him.

yes, for 15 extra points.

>>50729605

>>50729542
An ordinary guardsman also dies to a demolition charge. The difference here is that (fluff-wise) a Tzeentch cultist could deflect it, a Slaanesh cultist could escape it, and a Nurgle cultist... well, a demo charge would probably blow him limb from limb, so I guess the supernatural toughness thing might not fly.

>>50729532
>The Nurgleman just needs to land a single hit to fuck up the Khornate
It's not ID, is it? It's just posion, and resistance to warpcraft bullshit posion is the kind of thing that Khorne might grant a cultist.

>>50729729
Well it's not more expensive than it used to be, and it still gives more firepower to SoB squads. The BSS AoF even makes it very unlikely that they'll kill themselves.

>It's not ID, is it? It's just posion, and resistance to warpcraft bullshit posion is the kind of thing that Khorne might grant a cultist.
But he doesn't you need specific gear for that like a Brass Collar to get that boon. And in this case it's just Guardsmen using Guardsmen weapons like Lasguns with bayonets and shit.

>>50730070

>>50731330
Play Skitarii, space wolves or daemons.

>>50731153
World eaters have to give everything that can take it mark of Khorne, right?

But daemon of Khorne is different, you can have a Tzeentch daemon prince leading your world eaters and have him roll on the power pool with elecro-displacement.
Have the prince move 2d6 pre-game, fly 12" and then displace with Kharn's squad for a first turn charge, that's pretty strong.

Does Wobbly Model Syndrome allow you to place miniatures where they couldn't possibly balance as long as some part of them is on the terrain?

>>50731443
drone net is the absolute maximum you should go

You are high lord Inquisitor Maximus Decarus, feared by xeno/alien alike. You leave fried Orks and charred Eldar in the wake of your fleet’s exterminatus as you sail about the stars in the Emperors name.
Haha, just kidding, you are Max Decarus, lowly trooper in the Emprah’s imperial guard.

>>50731477
as long as its not impassable terrain (or they are allowed to stand on it) and they arnt over other's bases then you are fine

>>50731309
you are absolutely right, though. the fact that you're getting shit is just one more hint at the obvious fact that /tg/ fucking sucks at 40k

>>50731406
In the WE detachment, yes. But you can have an allied detachment with a Tzeentch DP

>>50731477
Wobbly Model Syndrome allows you to place miniatures where they could physically fit and mark them as being there even if they balance poorly. It still doesn't allow them to be in impassible terrain or over other bases.

>>50731365
Oh no, the guy who is cheating is trying to bully his ruling thru with name calling. Fuck you and your shit taste. Play the game right or fuck off.

>>50731379
You mean the kind of partygoer that listens to the rules, like dont break my shit, stay out of the marked rooms, dont steal anything? You know the rules? Sure am. If you go to parties do people have to babysit your rule breaking ass?

>>50731477
You can put dice or any stabalizer under them for balance. What you cannot do is have 2 models occupy the same space. If those were fucking broadsides instead of nicely painted guard, people would be calling him a munchkin faggot all over the thread.

Riptides are bar non one of the best melee options in the game, farsight is nigh on unbeatable and even generic commanders put out lots of attacks before you add on the melee toys.
As for shooting, oh boy are skyrays and hammerheads awsome for all your dakka needs.

>no vendetta's only valkyries in this book to, making it a probability they will get squatted when we get our next codex upgrade

I think I've discovered the best way to eliminate death stars.

Take a big guy who can carry the doomstone (daemons artifact).

Raptor talon for minus 2 leadership in a fight.
Give the warlord in the talon one of the chaos legion artifacts that reduces leadership

Herald of nurgle with the doom bell (another artifact) for -1 leadership everywhere

Heldrake terror pack for minus 3 leadership.

Throw in some fiends if slaanesh for -1 to psykers.


You've got -7 leadership, -8 to psykers.

When the fight subphase starts, every enemy character in the fight has to take a leadership test, which they will likely fail. When they fail, they have to roll 1d6, and subtract the result from their leadership. If they reach zero, they are removed with no saves.

If you do this right, with multiple combat charges, you could likely remove every single character from half of their deathstar, before you even fight!

>>50731691
now if 90% of all models worth a damn didn't have fearless or stubborn this might be really effective

>>50731680
>making it a probability they will get squatted when we get our next codex upgrade
It's a certainty anon. If you don't have a model, you don't get rules anymore. FW will still provides rules for them though.

>>50731720
You aren't making morale or pinning checks, so neither rule applies.

Playing as IG against Ravenwing and/or Cult Mech.

What do?

>>50731720

Actually fearless doesn't protect against it.

>>50731691

A very solid idea - I think the only concern is people lock picking the combo by drilling the doomstone bearer ASAP.

>>50731680
Do we have the imperial agents book yet?

>>50731330
Look up OddworldInhabitant's series on YouTube; he's been going down the crazy route of playing a Cadian Infantry Company. Meaning lots of Conscripts, and lots of Lasgun fire (mass First Rank Fire, Second Rank Fire adds up, especially when Divination is also a thing).

You can always be cheeky and take a Lib Conclave with Tigurius as your Warlord, so you could a have a mob of Conscripts that re-roll to-hit, Rend, have Monster Hunter or Ignore Cover...

Well, as previously pasted, you could paint one of your commisars into Max Decarus and hope that they don't pay any attention to your units while they vigorously masturbate to their own units.

You could also put an Inquisitor with a Psyocculum in a mob of conscripts, making the whole mob BS10 when shooting any unit with a Psyker in it.

It's like, as long as both players don't mind a few extra points there's no reason to throw a bitch fit. Getting exact numbers is a bitch, and have a +/- 15-20 pts isn't THAT big of a deal.

Should I wait until 8E to start building an army?

How hard you want to fight?

>Conscript Tier
Bring Heavy Weapons squads loaded with Autocannons/Lascannons. Give your CCS a Regimental Standard and Camo netting, then plop them in cover close by. Attach commissars to the HWSs so they can get orders off reliably. Ignore cover with S9Ap2 shots.

>Trooper Tier
Fold your HWS's into a 50-man platoon. Attach a Primaris Psyker instead of a commissar. Put your CCS into a chimera instead of camo netting. Same as above, except more accurate and buff-efficient.

>Kasrkin Tier
Use the Emperor's Wrath formation with a Manticore, 3 Basilisks and 2 Wyverns. Protect your artillery with 30-man blobs x2 with power weapon sergeants. Augment with Priests so they don't run. Put the PCS's into chimeras with meltaguns so they can cruise around the board as objective grabbers/tank busters. Pound any fixed positions into dust. Then mop up with infantry.

In all 3 cases your strategy will revolve around using 'fire on my target' to bust up enemy cover saves and lascannons to ignore armor and toughness. Use your superior range to force the bad guys to come to you. Cut them down before they get there.

Hey /tg/, I posted earlier trying to get the most out of the Kakophoni in a 2000 point game.

I'm not too sure about this list and would want some critique.

Lucius goes with the Icon of Excess squad. I figured a rhino is fine and if they're going to an objective they'll probably get to melee.

I've thrown in the Lord on a Steed so that I can outflank a fourth unit of noise marines to ravage someone from behind. Sorcerors of SLaanesh seem good too so I thought it could help.

>>50732162
Pretty paint jobs are no excuse to be a cheating shitter. Thats the point.

>>50732147
Chaos still uses 6E codexes?

>>50732182
Play Tau or Eldar since Chaos get table faster than SoB. At least them can get to turn 4, unlike Chaos.

>>50732147
Except GW is changing everything now like they did with 3e which had all armies in the BBB, so old release patterns don't mean Shit. Age of Sigmar was the test run for a new release model.
