Least obnoxious is the one where you build your entire army around 6 guardian/dire avengers squads in Falcons and don't take anything at all with a "W" in it's name.

The most obnoxious is where you take 6 of those forgeworld wraithknights with 10" rending blast weapons.

We cant control what we get either ( except if we order an emergeny package ), but we can see what they send us before we have the package.
If the store is out of plastic glue then she should be able to tell the HQ (Nottingham in my case ) that she lacks glue and they send it: Plastic glue is also an stock item, the system should recognize that she has sold X, so they send her more. Sometimes we also get stuff from other stores, who have an surplus.

Anyway, would you mind telling me which GW she works for ?

I swear I'm only pretending to be retarded on /tg/. In person I'm just some guy that only ever runs fully painted CAD, with the least broken lists I can possibly come up with. The rules lawyering shit where I bend the game over as hard as I possibly can never even sees the light of the tabletop.

I just fuck with RAW as a mental exercise, like finding the rules exploit that allows a Cataphractii Captain to take a bike, or pretty much anything really that results from geedubs being terrible at finding their own rules faults.

I mean for god sakes, my typical lists involve me taking 9 troop choices with two CADs. Even I'm getting annoyed that people have started recognizing me in real life by my models. It kinda makes me want to tone down the shitposting.

It's obvious the question is "in the set of Wraithknights, which ones are the relatively most and least obnoxious?"

Only on a roll (or card draw) of 23 with specific battlezone rules. Because the warp is fickle. And fuck you.

Still, you'd have to bring the requisite models and roll or draw the right result to just a Khorne Daemon or Culexus who can shoot lightning.

They're Felinids, a race of Sanctioned Abhumans with precisely 2 sentences of fluff in the actual canon. http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Felinid

Given that they're called Felinids, most of the 40k fandom basically portrays them as Catgirls/boys. Obviously they could be completely furry as well, but furries are a shit, so any portrayal of them in artwork is usually only 10% cat.

just go to frontlinegaming and look up the current ITC standings. it's not definitive because player skill isn't uniform across all factions (and, of course, 40k is a very high variance dice game so sometimes people just get fucked) but, still, overall you'll get a feel for what armies are popular and powerful in a competitive setting if you look at the competitive metrics.

Apparently it was missing some models (which FW discontinued) and will not come back due to this.

IA1:2nd Edition went out of print as well due to the same reasons. I guess that IA3:2nd Ed. (Taros Campaign) will go as well, because that book features even more missing units like the Kroot and many Tau vehicles.

I finally painted a Skitarii Infiltrator Princeps for my Kill Team. Not the best work, or even the best colorscheme, but I'm calling it finished. Now ten Vanguard and five Peltasts to go. And half a dozen conversion, objective, and stratagem models to go.

You can do it, it just takes time, effort, and coming back to it from a different angle. That Princeps must have been stripped three times already.

My local GW is having a 200 point HQ free for all using Kill team rules next week. I asked how armies that don't have many single model HQ choices and was told to just buy another army's HQ. Luckily I have a assortment of other models to pull from so I'm trying to think of the dumbest thing I can run. A flying daemon prince came to mind, a herald of tzeentch summoning daemon but I don't know how well that technicality would go over. Also in my pool is a terminator sorcerer who could do much the same. Cawl seems tempting at 200 on the dot but I doubt I could get ahold of one and get it presentable by next week. Any suggestions?

It's really just pistols. Marines pay 15 points for a plasma shot before they charge that also grants an extra WS/S/I4 attack in melee on a T4 model. It's not ideal, but you could make an argument. Sisters and IG pay the same price for a WS/S/I3 attack on a T3 model.

Okay. I wouldn't recommend that you mix special weapons ever. Better to have dedicated anti tank and dedicated anti infantry.

Your heavy weapons teams are also going to be useless. Heavy weapons snap shot when they are moved. On top of that only 2 models can fire from the top hatch of the Chimera.

So let's pause a second here.

What happens when a unit firing out of a transport Gets Hot!? Can a unit even get hurt inside a transport, or does it allocate to the vehicle somehow? Is it randomly allocated among the shooters like the open-topped template thing, or do you designate which models beforehand? If the gunners are cooking like a Sherman and enough of them die to trigger a rout test, and they fail, what happens then? "Unable to move" instant sexplosion for the whole unit? Emergency disembark Fall Back maneuver?

The neat thing about HWT is that they count as one model for the purposes of firing out the top hatch. In case you had an immobile chimera for some reason.

Oh no, not me. I told him before not to stick HWT in vets as they'll be useless. I mean, maybe he can park on an objetive and be okay, but he's got some work to do before that list is ready. Definitely needs to differentiate plasma vets from melta vets.

>>51300261
The Eldar killed their own gods because of their hedonism poured all their beliefs away from them and into Slaanesh which allowed the Chaos God to devour and destroy the pantheon as this belief in absolute hedonism coalesced into a God and gave the Eldar souls to Slaanesh, Cegorach was spared because in this culture of excess the Eldar still believed in him so his followers were also spared from being devoured as Cegorach claimed the souls of the Harlequin.

That's because an Ork looting living Saint Wings and a bunch of Imperial Relics is fun, and Orks kind of need the help anyway.

Tau don't really need the help, and they also have the potential to take every single Relic on the list at the same time. Tau don't need even more options like that, so it's annoying.

The only fun one for Tau would be a knockoff Farsight with the sword, but even that requires buying another melee relic first to be able to swap.

The Onager is cheap as shit, so it wouldn't even be a problem.

And they couldn't take every relic, as the discussion following OP's faggotry says, the actual relic list says that they could only take one. And that's after assuming that Signature Systems are relic equivalents, which because of their ability to take more than one, they might not be.

But that's wrong. Relics are specifically ONE PER MODEL as per the FAQ. Signature systems are not relics, but they serve the same function in the codex. They lack the one sentence that creates the 1 relic per model clause. "A model may equip one of the following". That sentence is in just about every codex's relic section on the wargear list before the unit entries.
>>
>>51300487
Tau can't take relics.
>>
>>51300516
I don't think the Onager is technically a melee weapon. It just gives the ability to essentially do a Smash attack.

Whether or not they can take all of them though isn't really my point. My point is that Tau already have two lists of cool relics, along with the ability to stick them on elites as well as HQs. Having another one to play around with along with all there other stuff just isn't going to sit well with some people.

On the plus side, I can't see any of the new relics being particularly overpowered or underpriced so it's not too much of a big deal if someone did come up with a Cadre that'd just looted a Shrine/Forge world.

Starting a Necron army. Trying to start off with being thrifty with it to start off with. So building an army around some of the money saving bundles.

HQ
Destroyer Lord, Veil of Darkness = 135

Troops
Warriors X10, Ghost Ark = 235
Warriors X10, Ghost Ark = 235
Warrios X15 = 195 (lord goes here)

Heavy Support
Monolith = 200
Stalker = 125
Stalker = 125

Total = 1250

Idea being that the Stalkers will support the Warriors, boosting their BS, and offering anti tank support. The arks will offer fire support and extra repairs on the warriors. The lord will jump around the field with the 15 warriors with the veil and the monolith.

Okay. You want the Emp's Blade. It's basically most of what you have their but with bonuses. You need 3 Veteran Squads, a CCS, and a hellhound, and all chimeras.

You get objective secured and preferred enemy (anyone on an objective) while loosing the reroll warlord ability. Take a couple hellhounds instead of a Leman Russ, the Chimeras will do everything your HWS's do but while moving and holding infantry.

If you want sentinels, take the Emp's talon with the bare minimum of 6 armoured sentinels. This gives you preferred enemy against one unit type and will help negate the Get's Hot! rolls. Also, ORDERS!

Pour all remaining points into special weapons for the vets and CCS.

Haywire Scourges and Blasterborn are usually the go-to, with the Ravager being a fallback though it's generally better suited to taking cannons and not lances. How many depends on how many other blasters/AT options you have in your list.

Also, nice scheme.

>>51301385
I dont see that helping much at all tbqh. 200 points for one ordnance shot and then maybe 3 snapfiring guass arrays just isnt worth it.

Not much, no deepstrike protection and they're still offensively lacking.
>>
>>51301353
Fireblades and Ethereals can help you put out a withering amount of firepower.

But you'll need it, as without Objective Secured (because you play unbound), you'll very likely need to table the opponent in order to win.

Tau are pretty good at shooting down most other troops, but are not very good at holding or contesting objectives for long.

Blasterborn are generally the go to AT unit. That's 5 Trueborn in a venom with 4 blasters. Fast and effective, which is also nice for MC hunting thanks to the splinter canons on the venom.

Reavers are one of the best units in the Codex with either a blaster or heat lance per three. You'll hear people swear on both, but always get Caltrops for the higher S HoW.

Scourges Haywire blasters are good and cheap, too. They can also carry blasters or lances if you really want.

The classic Ravager carries three dark lances.

The planes aren't terrible, either. However, the fighter is generally better than the bomber, though the fighters can screen the bomber.

For me it's the point cost of weapon upgrades, point costs of some Russes and the point costs of Pyskers and Ogryn/Bullgryn.

They have enough units to stand out, but the Taurox was a total waste of a vehicle addition. It should be Open-topped so that the Guard could be played more aggressively. A CC kitted out CCS with Straken or Ogryn/Bullgryn, or Vets with shotguns. They should be able to use assault weapon spam followed by charging. Instead the Taurox is just a weird sidegrade to the Chimera. The Taurox Prime is great, but the regular Taurox needs something to stand out.

My pont cost adjustment for the Guard would be

Mortar, Heavy Bolter, Autocannon - 5
Missile Launcher, Lascannon - 10
Skyfire upgrade for Missile Launcher - 5
Power Weapon - 10
Powerfist - 15
Plasma Gun, Plasma Pistol - 10
Ogryn - 30
Bullgryn - 35
Bullgryn upgrade - free
Demolisher - 150
Battle Tank - 130
Executioner - 135
Vanquisher - 110
Exterminator - 120
Basilisk - 100
Primaris Psyker - 30
Primaris Psyker ML2 - 20
Infantry Squad - 40
Veterans - 50
Straken - 90
Chimera - 60
Hellhound - 110
Devil Dog - 120
Banewolf - 115
Wyvern - 75

They should be 5 points as well.
>>
>>51300870
Actually since the rolls are independent it's a 11/36 before the save to get at least one wound. After saves its a 35/324 chance (1/36 better than 1/9).

Looks good but please rename your list to Aelderi to trigger the autists.

>>51301698

That's weird. I didn't know a knights were non-vehicles.
>>
>>51301815
honestly it needs better optimization
>>
>>51301815
Seems alright. Why the Autarch's loadout, though? I'm probably biased but I love me a laser lance Banshee Mask Jettarch to run with Reavers when I play them together.

>>
>>51301837

I'll rename for my print list. I may add an exclamation point for emphasis.

>>51301841

There are def. some elements that could be optimized (i.e. just not taking Harlequins or Dark Eldar and just running more Eldar) but I like playing all 3 Space Elves together (plus I have my own dumb head cannon as to why they're fighting together).

>>51301852

Honestly I don't know? I had 110 points to spend and I couldn't think of anything else to add? I do have a Laser Lance + Mask autarch that I run with a corsair list but I prefer to make a slightly beefier reaver mini star with a corsair prince when I do that.
>>
>>51301705
I go for Gun Drones on the squad with my Fireblade. The extra shots with volley fire help a good deal, as does the higher toughness and armor save when it gets down to meatshielding.

I do run marker drones on some other pathfinders. I find them particularly nice on Stealth Teams where they benefit from the cover save and can help supplement combined fire.

Shield Drones I feel are a large waste on a lot of things. 4+ invuln isn't that great, especially on infantry squads. The 4+ armor or cover save you'll get from being in terrain will often do better, and having the extra gun is nicer than a 50/50 chance you'll be able to meatshield an extra time.

Might be of some use on a Crisis team that is more likely to get hit by high AP weapons and won't be in terrain enough to get a cover save, but even then the other options are still better there in many ways.
>>
>>51301869

It's ok. I thought the same thing when I remembered I have two knights that need to be built. One of them is going to be a crusader for my Sisters. Then, I shit myself when I saw Celestines rules until someone pointed out the non-vehicle part.

still, 2 extra bodies might arguably be worth more than T6. idk, maybe i'll make room for 7 nurgle bikers. it is nurgle's number anyway.

Just means I'm not up shit creek if they scatter poorly or bungle a reserve roll. The flamer also covers one of the main weaknesses of the hotshot lasgun.

I'd go all in if I were running melta suicide squads or a quad-special command squad.
>>
>>51301932

Renegades and Heretics can bring a lot of stuff to the table because it's cheap, but they also suck individually and have poor leadership, so don't try and build elite and make sure you can keep them in line.. Imperial Guard are a bit more up to snuff and can also pack a few more elite models like Scions, and overall they're more reliable.

For Guard? No.

For R&H? Also no.

Guard need special weapons if they want to kill anything, and if they lack those or even the decent survivability of carapace armor, then they at least need bodies to take hits and pump out enough shots to stand a chance of killing something.

It's still not a bad choice for turn 1 if you're planning on hiding them. You can move up the 12 and then Jump move back into cover and wait for targets next turn to wreck in melee

Ok then here's how you turn that army into something more cohesive

Turn the tac squads into 4x5 Squads with a missile launcher each.

You got a Devastator box so turn that into 2x5 squads each with 2 heavy weapons, one with lascannons and the other with missile launcher/grav cannon

So I need to make an Icon for my bike squad. I would just use the one supplied in the box but...oh yeah None were supplied in the box, along with no special weapons either...that's a gripe for later though.

So this seems like a good way to make a flag style Icon, all I need is a Flag pole. Any ideas TG?

So I'm getting another box of Kataphron Destroyers soon, I already have three Grav ones but I'm thinking I'm going to build these new ones with Plasma Culverins. Now you may be thinking "Why? The Heavy Grav Cannons are OP."

I want to pair them with the Haemotrope Reactor. This would cause each Culverin to spit two 36' Str 7 AP2 Large blasts. Granted they now get hot on a 2 or 1, but between canticles, and getting a Ordo Xenos psychic inquisitor with Conversion Beamer (Fluffed and modeled as a Ordo Machinum Inquisitor) to act as a Prescience Battery, I think that would keep them from blowing themselves up. So six large plasma blasts for around 250ish points. Thoughts?

Kinda wanna build space marines.

Can't decide chapter.

Heavily leaning towards Salamanders but I also really like a bunch of other first founding chapters.

Alternatively which of the "Start Collecting 40k" boxes would be best as a self contained like growth platform. Was thinking of starting a mini escalation type thing with a friend where we both start with one of those boxes and build up points over the course of several months.

Maybe do that rather than build older stuff I have laying around to get me back into the groove of things.

Any thoughts?

Is there anything like it in the current ranges? Loyalist or traitor, GW or FW. The normal MkII doesn't look so similar. Long time xenos player who doesn't know shit about Marines here

Try 6. Anyway, scatter lasers are free and make the best all-rounder weapons, but don't discount the EML either, as WWs can dualwield them for some surprisingly solid anti-air while also being decent at everything else. If you do take them, abuse the shit out of Battle Focus to make your 10/10/10 2HP 5++ walker last as long as possible so yo uget your money's worth.

A Start collecting box along with one of the new Armored Assault boxes tends to be a decent and strong option for any of the armies there.

If you want to build Salamanders, go for Salamanders. It gives you a great excuse to bring Flamers, Multimeltas, and other lesser-used weapons.
