Thanks for these FAQs GW!

I think genestealer cult players might be the worst players in the game at actually reading and interpreting rules

>Q: In a Gladius Strike Force, is a unit allowed to take a Drop Pod as a Dedicated Transport but then deploy on the board while the Drop Pod Deep Strikes?
>A: Technically, taking a Drop Pod as a Dedicated Transport and then deploying the unit and the Drop Pod separately is something you can do.

Holy shit Gw, passive aggressive much?

Actually re-reading a bit of the codex now, what specifies that my Tau commander can take multiple relics?

Good work, Kabalite.

>>51314286

In my "research" of helping clarify the Tau taking multiple Signature Systems thing, I found another item that lets them evade the "1 relic per model" restriction. Aside from not being labeled as relics, there is a sentence missing from the Tau wargear list before the unit entries that is in every other "relic" using codex.

In the Tau Codex it reads:
"Only one of each Signature System may be taken per army." and then it lists the systems

In other codexes, in this case, the Grey Knights one it reads:
"Only one of each Relic of Titan may be taken per army. A model can take one of the following:" And then it lists the Relics.

This right here: "A model can take one of the following:" is what creates the 1 relic per army restriction and the Tau codex does not feature it.

>>51314286
Nothing. Tau commanders get fucked just as hard as everyone else by the relic change.

>>51314286
Tau dont have relics, they have Signature Systems.
No relics no problems.

So is there any reason to run Scions as anything but however many Hellrain Brigades you can fit into your points limit

Well the new faqs are fucking over my list pretty heavily, may i ask if the death korps counts as imperial guard? Battlescribe uses the AM tag in front of it so im puzzled

Is the Dominus Maniple worth using solely for the Plasma Caliver reroll and a tough as nails Dominus? Is that better than having the entire force using Scout and Crusader? You could just have a Vanguard Alpha in the Skitarii Maniple and get the same re-roll, right? I really dislike the lone Dunecrawler nonsense and loss of Scout on the Vanguard.

>>51314299
I seriously don't understand why there's ANY confusion with Signature Systems.

They're not called Relics. The word "Relic" never shows up in the rules half of the Tau Codex. So why do people want to arbitrarily enforce a non-listed irrelevant rule on something that's totally different in name?

>>51314338
The ground formation is pretty neat, but they're nearly only ever used as a melta suicide squad anyway. Primes are pretty cheap and effective though.

No, they don't. They fill the role of Signature Systems. There is literally nothing even remotely linking Relics and Signature Systems.

Are Sisters of Battle genetically engineered for increased size/muscle at all? Or are they just regular women and rely on their power armor to make up their strength?

the latter

>>51314374
Can the regular (read: suicide) scion squad in a hell rain brigade be held back in reserves to deepstrike or does the whole formation have to deploy at once?

>>51314299
A few of the other 'dexs have a slightly different wording, "A model may exchanged one weapon for one [relic]." Some consider that a limit of one, while others consider it an invitation to exchange as many weapons as possible.

Astra Militarum notably does not have a limit, either.

I didn't know about the IG one. But they're still called "relics", right?

I mean, I wish I could kit out my Grey Knights with the Relic spear, the relic Termie armor, and the relic Storm Bolter, but even though they're different pieces of equipment, I can only take 1. I know it fucks with vanilla marines pretty good because there's relic weapons, relic shield, and relic wargear.

>They're not called Relics. The word "Relic" never shows up in the rules half of the Tau Codex.

The word "Relic" doesn't show up in most codices. It's mostly Space Marine permutations, Sororitas, Crimson Slaughter, Skitarii, and GSC. There's probably a few more that I missed, but Eldar have Remnants, Astra Militarum and Imperial Knights have Heirlooms, Cult Mech has Arcana, and most CSM have Artefacts.

>So why do people want to arbitrarily enforce a non-listed irrelevant rule on [Tau] something that's totally different in name?
Because people fucking hate Tau. The caveat is, if SigSystems are relics, Tau can (maybe) only have one per model, but can buy from the Fall of Cadia lists.

>>51314394
Likewise, a lot of non-"relic" lists have the word "relic" listed somewhere in that list's fluff, as well. There are "Artefacts," described as relics and "Relics," described as artefacts.

>>51314407
>There is literally nothing even remotely linking Relics and Signature Systems.
They're the fucking relic-equivalent. The unique wargear of the army, described as so rare, powerful, or advanced that There Can Be Only One (of each per army.) This is the same as any Heirloom or Artefact or Relic. It's incredibly clear that they're intended to be the "Relics" of Tau. "Relics" are a common gameplay convention.

If none of those are relics, then Iron Hands and Cult Mechanicus can't equip the Arcana Mechanicum of Belisarias Cawl. And Commissars can't take from Celestine's special list, but GSC can.

Giant floating platform with rotors akin to Cloudbase from Captain Scarlet crossed with pic related, but with the Admech aesthetic.

Would be essentially a moving fortification bristling with mid-strength blasts and have lots of HP but comparatively weak armour (12/12/12?), plus that"can be shot at at full BS" rule the Manta has.

Doctrinas and/or Canticles, a modest Invulnerable save and lots of battlements for firing down from.Troops on the top deck can deepstrike down like Valkyrie grav-chute insertion, and if destroyed must do this at a point on the explosion scatter point, but take an AP2 dangerous terrain. Ones in the hold take D hits and crashing hits as normal.

Basically imperium started in the middle, they set up first, so basically chaos got to see how the fortress was defended, but since creed is le super tactikool genius we got to redeploy d6 units before the game started

First turn went like all first turns in 40k do, a bunch of deep strikes filled every hole in our base, a crazy lucky melta shot exploded the void shield generator and killed the tech priest on it, not a good way to start and my assumption that we could hold out till turn 4-5 seemed pretty optimistic

>>51314675
>but can buy from the Fall of Cadia lists.

How? Are they not limited to the detachment containing the Fall of Cadia HQs?

Any recommendations on what to get next for dark eldar with harlequin support? I have 4 raiders, 30 kabalites, some scourges, an arcon and a set of reavers, 2 troupes, a shadowseer, a death jester and a death masque box. I'm also waiting on 2 talos pain engines to come in as well. Just still feeling quite squishy.

>>51314997
To get the Fall of Cadia relics you either need Celestine or Cawl as your HQ or use one of the detachments.

>>51314363

It's fucking obvious Signature Systems are meant to be the same things as relics/heirlooms of conquest/artifacts. They appear in the same place in the codex and use ALMOST the same wording. So don't get all pissy when people make the easy mistake of thinking they are exactly the same.

>>51314775
I feel like they screwed the pooch with that turret. The KV-2's turret is less absurd!

Embed the railguns into the chassis and make an excellent tank destroyer instead. Leave the turret ring but put an Ion cannon on it that can be traded for a ghostkeel's invisibility field thingy. Behold! A mini-superheavy! Costs as much as a lord of war but is deceptively small and unassuming. With 13/13/11 armor AND shrouded, it has greater survivability than its 5 HP would suggest.

I'm thinking this as a counterpart to a Macharius.

Forgot to take a picture of the final state of the table, but basically on the final turn imperium was barely holding on, and we had abaddon come down from orbit to finish it personally, he deepstruck with no scatter and had an auto 12" charge, and we did a roll where on a 4+ he got supercharged by chaos and gained Horus' foolish and weak statline and wargear, he made the roll, and an angry Horus luprical beat a leviathan dreadnought fitted for combat with drill and claw to death in one turn, good way to end a game imo

To get the Fall of of Cadia relics, a character has to be in one of the special detachments, or be in the same ARMY as Celestine or Cawl. See pic. They don't have to be your HQ. They don't have to be in your detachment. They don't even have to be battle brothers.

A character just has to be able to purchase relics (or equivalent) and in the same army as Celestine/Cawl for their respective lists. They can be an allied detachment HQ, or even an unbound slot-in.

>>51315026
If they weren't, Cult Mech amries that can buy Arcana Mechanicum would be unable to buy from Belisarius' Arcana Mechanicum list because they can't buy relics.

What the flying shitfuck does this mean?

Does this mean Alpha Legion can't bring back two units of cultists when one dies (assuming they pass two 4+ rules)?

If anything this FAQ/Errata doesn't address any of the actual rules issues in traitor legions and instead muddles what was clear ruling where two different rules would both be applied.

Now it's vague, open ended and entirely up to interpretation.

Are you kidding me?

Can you provide sauce?

I know that BL isn't canon but in ciaphas cain they are basically trained to the standards of the modern military, daily Drills, bolter drilling, formations, stuff like that, of course in the book they are still in their mid to late teens and have barely started training in power armour, so it could really ramp up as the years go on but top 1% is a pretty hefty claim without some proof from an official source

>>51315157
Well since Signature Systems are relics (or equivalent) I think they have access.

But maybe you like the idea of Genestealer Cults getting access to Imperium bonuses that IG can't get.

>>51314507
Explain?

Im guessing you mean like the Obelisk FAQ which gives them a 180 degree firing ark on their flayers. This means if theres a model next to a corner of a an obelisk it can only be shot by one tesla ;^)

>What the flying shitfuck does this mean?
Nobody knows.
Nobody can agree on what it means.

Some think they mean they're not the same rules so the "no stacking" rules don't apply.
Some think the opposite.

We just don't know.

>What the flying shitfuck does this mean?

Indeed, congratulasions for having reading comprehension.
I will agree with you that there was more problems in TL that needed clarifying, but anyone that thought you could get two squads of cultist out of one is a dumbass.

>>51315190
I have no quotes that would mention anything I said, but from what I've read about sisters compared to female guard, compared to civilians, sisters have them all beat (with the exception of "legendary" female guard). I say top 1% only because they train in power armor and would in theory, be stronger than any woman who doesn't.

>>51315140
obviously

>>51315183
I have no clue why they worded it that way but it is not hard to understand

You can use it to A. Bring the cultists onto your edge instead of out flanking.
B. When the original formation cultists die you can only bring them back once. With this rule you can keep bringing them back.

>>51315183
They obviously mean there is no rules interactions, they're different rules so they don't interfere with each other.

You are allowed to roll for both and get two squads if successful.

Where does it say that? I have my copy of TL sitting in front of me trying to figure out what the FAQ means, and nowhere under either entry is this brought up.

Did GW just took the time to make the worst FAQ possible, I've just seen nerfs, useless explanations, explanations that no one asked, explanations that didn't needed to be, contradiction to rules, codex and previews FAQ.

What the flying fuck? Is there anything good?

Ahahahahaha, wow, so it took rules (which everyone agreed you could have two squads come back) but now nobody agrees what it does.


It's like alpha legion planned this to cause infighting and weaken the imperium's fragile hold on our planet.

If you cut one head off the hydra, two more take its place.

Ah I could see that (although idk if there's lore on how difficult power armour is to use but I'd imagine it would take some training)

I'd imagine training every day for 20 years would probably put anyone in the top 1%, I just imagine Olympians just being born with bodies built in a way that allows them to excel at something, but I guess if it's more of an aquired skill I could accept it

>Seriously though where are my female guard models, I'll take an upgrade sprue of heads at this point

>As the Adepta Sororitas made for the undamaged portside hangars, Marshal Amalrich declared his battle-brothers would ensure the Iron Revenantdied fighting. Greyfax argued against this course. To her mind, Cawl was already half-under Celestine’s spell, and the Inquisitor wanted allies of her own close to hand. Still, Amalrich was resistant – the Marshal’s pride chafed from the long retreat, and only the presentation of the Inquisitorial Seal bent him to Greyfax’s will.

are there any formations for chaos space marines that allow me to take additional heavy support choices?

I thought about taking two combined arms detachments but by the time I spend the points on that I don't have enough left to take the heavy support stuff anyway.

A gigantic walking statue for Adeptus Sororitas, piloted by a living saint, equipped with choice of super mega-bolter, super mega-flamer, or super mega-melta, plus giant fucking D sword or giant fucking D hammer giant fucking CC weapon.

Sure, they're expensive marines, but they were middle of the road in my meta. Them being expensive points-wise mean I had to get less models.

Now they can't even shoot and charge without ditching the gun that makes them 22 points in the first place.

>>51315537
Formations don't use things like ''Heavy support'' , with formations you can only take very specific units.

It's too fucking big, it's nightmare to transport, it towers over all the other daemons, it has loads of little details that get caught on things and break, it's the size of a super heavy(if not a little bigger) but is just a monster.

Nope, we all are. There are a lot of ways you could change them but giving them super heavy and fire points would be the simplest and most effective.
Stompas are 700 points and the nauts fill a nice halfway point, but they are in the price range of riptides and knights. Both of which arnt afraid of a single melta shot. See that gaurdsman in the corner of this pic? Hes about to roll a 6+ on the table

I personally find them okay, but the whiners will of course wish there wasnt a tax at all, and say that he's abit too expensive.

>>51315892
Zach here, thanks man

>>51315900
Neat.
Does anyone have a imorktan joe model? I can't sculpt for shit.

>>51315842

This is why having 40mm and 60mm big models is best.

>>51315932

I probably would have made the new ones Gargantuan creatures.

But that probably would have made them harder to slot in so.

>>51315892
Do you know what scale it is?

Oh, I'm not using it as a gaming piece. I just want the model, because it looks great.

I'm going to buy two. I'll paint one properly, and the other one will be painted to match my pet parrot. Pic related.

what the fuck?

>>51315939
No problem man
>>51315959
Comparing the stub gun on the shouler of the knight, and comparing it with the vickers, i'd say it's not far from 40k's 28 mm scale, possibly alittle smaller.

I'd try searching 24, 26, 28 and 35 mil scale.
I know it's not much to go on.

What do you expect anon? She killed Inquisitor Valeria when she found out Valeria got infected by Mindshackle Scarab, top fucking kek. Look like we had another nazi in the house. What's next? Creed returned but got shot in the head by Greyfax too because "muh corruption"

Daily reminder that Tempestor Primes are now as fast as a space marine, and therefore faster than a space marine would be if they were given the implants.

>>51316027
Many of them are probably implanted with bionics, etc.

>>51316004
Oh shit never mind, I just found a site that sells just the scopes for these guns.

it's always been unaffected. The FAQ is just clarifying it for people who don't understand what "it doesn't matter what your BS is, you're firing snapshots" means.

>>51316052
allright, godspeed with your tempestus anon!

>>51316062
>you're firing snapshots

BS1, Culexus can still die to flamers and blasts.

>>51316082
Oh, right. Misremembered the exact wording.

Flamers are probably better than blasts, unless you're lucky with the scatter.

So I've got 90 points left to spend in this list - not sure what to add. Hard to add much for the Harlequins given the specificity of the formations so it is either Dark Eldar or Eldar - not sure what to add from where.

I like how Cawl points out that Greyfax also has scarabs in her body and she's like "I REMAIN UNCORRUPTED".

Just upgrade the deldar weapons on the reavers and scourges to blasters and heat lances and sheit

is this normal?

Last time I did that I woke up in a new era filled with these witch saints and slaves to the warp following behind them.

>>51316186

Your brush is too small.

>>51316160

Heat Lances are the same cost as blasters on reavers and I prefer the range on blasters.

I'm not sure I like the blaster change to scourges - haywire is 24" vs. 18" and on a hit I need a 2+ to get a result vs. with a blaster I need a 4+ for a result against AV12 or greater.

You guys ever watch any BatReps on YouTube? Any channels you watch?

Tried MWG, guys are way too loud, screaming and obnoxious 9 out of 10 games.
Been watching a small channel called Tabletop Assault lately. Do some pretty alright games but damn do they get a shitload of rules wrong, like forgetting Gets Hot roles and other basic shit. At least they notice it themselves in editing and add in that they forgot it, but still.

>>51316215
strikingscorpion82 is generally an accepted batrep source

>>51315190
They have to fight the armour to some extent to move. They need t oshift dozens of extra kilos to walk and they need to be able to fight effectively like this. The armour doesn't predict their movements, it just supports them and helps them bear the load of the armour.

>>51316215
I like MWG when they do their silly/fun stuff like the new deathmatch stuff they've been doing with 1 melta gun and a Rhino.

There's one channel that I've heard is pretty good, I can't remember it's name exactly, but it has a cartoon dwarf/viking head with helmet, red beard, and sunglasses on it for their icon, iirc.

And usually get a lot of rules wrong, or forget them entirely. Plus the skill level is low. So I'm pretty ehhhh about them

40k Australia is hit or miss. Usually pretty armies at the least

the30kchannel usually has very pretty armies but man are the players horrible.

I like the concept, but I literally couldn't finish that Rhino episode. That slim russian guy or whatever was so god fucking annoying with all that screeching, I felt like busting my eardrums.

>>51316208
Not him, but I have the same issue as he's saying and I use the same brushes as Dunc's tutorials.

>>51316215

Bonus points for his ASMR army list videos. Seriously

90 pts is difficult for DE b/c most of our best units require you purchase a transport in order to not be useless.
This makes most of our units minimum cost 105-165pts for just the squad + transport before you begin to upgrade the squad.

HQ - Lhamaean 10pts + Venom w/ extra SC 65 pts total of 75 pts
Troop - Nothing
Elite - Mandrakes x7 84 pts
FA - Venom w/ 2 SC 65 pts
- Beast Masterx1 w/ khymerasx8 total of 90pts (best use is to eat overwatch for other units)
- Reaversx3 w/ cluster caltrops 63 pts (3 reavers won't scare anyone)
Heavy Support - Nothing

>>51316215
I find Long War to be pretty alright since the guys tend to be pretty chill about it.

Their Squat Space Wolves are also pretty cool

>>51316215
Some members of mini wargaming are LITERALLY autistic iirc. I dislike most of their players but atleast they upload regularly.

If youre looking for quality content check table top tactics but they only upload half their Videos on yt and the Rest behind a paywall

Otherwise go with what other anons recommended seems good

>>51316266
MWG made me have to prove to all the regulars at my flgs that lootas roll 1 d3 per unit to shoot. Not every model individually. That ork guy got the rule wrong for months.

>>51316252
Glacial geek. Does killteam batreps

>>51316215
everyone gets rules wrong

i tend to watch them pretty often, i don't game much. MWG is alright, they're aped up about the game but yeah it gets annoying after awhile. Striking scorpion likes his editing and makes games fairly boring.

i like guerrilla gaming and glacial geek the best

>>51316299

7 Mandrakes actually doesn't sound awful in my list - gives me an infiltrator and that's 14 S4 shots that do a fair job. I think the counter point would be if I'm going Mandrakes for that why not go rangers and get ObSec instead.

>>51316274
>>51316260
Use more than one brush, just like Duncan does. There's a reason he tells you which brush he's using each time.

Say it ain't so, but are Belisarius Cawl and the Grand Convocation detachment a way for Skitarii to start out embarked in transports taken from other lists?

>>51316303

I like Long War except for Kenny Doucheh (their paint guy)

>>51316212
Blasters do give the chance of instagibbing a vehicle with an explosion which should not be undersold.

>>51316372
no

>>51316372
Considering there's no transports in the Grand Convocation, unfortunately not.

Knight with transport space when?

You didn't hear this from me, but February 18th is a black out date for Warhammer employees. They are going to a conference at the end of this month to prepare for a "massive" release on that date.

>>51316359
Mandrakes are ap4 which makes them disgusting against skitarii and other units where that is a threat.
