shitposting this from the last thread because it ended right after i asked

why do tourney lists never spam necron warriors and never have thier two min squads in ghost arks

i thought warriors were really really good infantry and ghost arks gave them the mobility they need

It's because the ITC is not warhammer 40k. There are quite a few changes to the rules. Warrior are very very good if you do them properly. The ITC's retarded playstyle discourages their use however, and because the ITC is kinda insular they all end up hopping on the same bandwagons and then touting them as the only way to do things.
>>
>>51509081
From my experience warriors are good at objective holding, surviving, and gunning down most things that come within their threat range, but should any dedicated melee survive their overwatch they're almost guaranteed to be swept unless you roll REALLY well with reanimation.

Reposting from the previous thread in hopes to get someone to look into it.

Want to play a co-op game against a Tyranid swarm with a friend in Tabletop Simulator. Neither of us played Tyranids before so I tossed this together.

Our lists will either be 1500 or 1850 points and I was thinking of giving both Hive Tyrants a Warlord trait and making the mission objective either to survive for 4/5 turns or as an alternate win-con to kill both Hive Tyrants and expanding the Living Tide rules to also rely on either of the two being alive.

Needless to say, the Nids won't be controlled by a player.

should i just bring a broken as fuck necron army or a castellans of the imperium army and sweep the tourney to prove that this clause is broken before it gets out of hand? theres a couple massive cheese lords who are very WAAC who will take advantage of this in an instant once they find out about this change.

Give your Exalted Sorc Seer's Bane so you can actually do shit.

To the brother initiate from last thread who is starting a Templar army, let me add a few more tips. Always try to take one or more vindicators if you plan on fielding land raiders. At 125 pts vindicators are one of the best investments a Templar can make. It will put a huge target on the field that your opponent will want to deal with, if they ignore it you get a huge gun, if they focus it you only paid 125 pts, so it's win win. If you're like me you will want to field a huge mob of crusaders and sing biblical hyms as they March into battle, but if you want them to actually get into battle you need to take other things that will distract opponents, storm talons are another great unit for this, and drop podding iron clad dreads with two heavy flamers if you're playing xenos that fielded infantry out of tanks (this is particularly effective agaisnt tau gun lines). And always remember that when things look grim and you are questioning your next move, the answer is always move forward and pray. The emperor will protect you by cursing your opponents dice rolls.

How'd I do, /teej/?

>Elder Butt Pirates (1850 pts)

Corsair Prince (Jetpack, Reaper of the Outer Dark, Rage)

-Baron (Jetpack, Shimmershield, Rage)
-3x Corsair Reaver Band (Jetpack, 5x Pistols, 1x Lasblaster, 4x Blaster, Rage)

Coterie
-Sky Burners
-Baron (Jetpack, Shimmershield, Rage)
-2x Corsair Reaver Band (Jetpack, 5x Pistols, 1x Lasblaster, 4x Blaster, Rage)
-Corsair Balestrike Band (2x Lasblaster, 3x Splinter Cannon)

Strategy is to Deep Strike in, kill anything with lots of AP4 shooting, and then use the 7-12" thrust move to spread out from templates. If they bubblewrap everything worth shooting at I'll just jump around and capture objectives.
>>

like i said our meta is pretty casual
im pretty sure a well run list of wyvern spam,respawning scouts and vets in chimeras, and maybe a grav dev deathstar with the hunters eye or something like that, all with obsec from coteaz, will just rip everyone apart and take the WAACfag eldar player who always gets top 3 off guard

its honestly not hard to make a broken list with the CotI especially when everyone else is so restricted, or thinks they are
>>
>>51509201
CAD only doesn't really make the balance any better, it just shifts what's the new utterly broken bullshit. Daemons and Eldar both can go full cheddar and stick to a CAD, and there will still be a wide variety of Imperial superfriends deathstars viable under those restrictions.

Unless you're willing to go full hog and start imposing unit/formation datasheet alterations, don't bother with any comp shit. Just tell people that it's not supposed to be super WAAC and let the community self-police.

>>51509402
It doesn't really make any major changes, he's just one of the inexplicably ass-pained anti-ITC shills.

Warriors are slow, don't have that good of firepower, and can wither in the assault phase. Sure, they're durable, but that doesn't do much good when ObSec Jetbikes and Rhinos can just grab any objectives they need from underneath your feet.

here's a list i threw together in fucking seconds, its your standard run of the mill necron rape list at 1700 for the upccoming tourney, and it totally fits a CAD

i really have no doubt this would just fucking crush everyone because people are bringing such unoptomized lists since they are restricted by the 3/5ths rule, theres like one eldar player who just spams skat and D and people who try and bring skyhammer and wolfstars, but i really just dont think any of them could stand up to a well run standard decurion, adn with this loophole i could bring it and stomp

i really might because theres 2-3 faggots who try and push the restrictions as hard as they can and care about nothing but winning and taking money home, theyve already run new people off and i know they would jump at the oppertunity to bring more cheese even though they get top scores every tourney already

i jsut want to set an example for why this needs to change
>>
>>51509444
If you aren't going into CC, don't bother with the Exalted. The one-use blast isn't worth the sixty points, and the stat upgrades aren't much good outside melee. If you're going into melee, the Seer's Bane is great. An average 3.5 additional attacks, ID anything below T5 and below without Force, and wound on a 4+ at worst and usually a 3+ or 2+? Seer's Bane is absolutely amazing.

ah ok thanks i modified the list a bit is that better?
>>
>>51509444
Seer's bane is S2 Demonic Force weapon that uses your and enemy ID instead of S and T. That means that you wound at at least 4, and usually 3s and 2s. You also insta-kill everything that has T5 or lower.

Fun stars one you get Biomancy, Sinistrum, Telepathy and start buffing your Sorc into absolute melee beast that can rip entire squads apart with ease.
>>
>>51509294
Much appreciated. Playing around with some ideas in the roster creator just to see if I can get something good going. Definitely liking the idea of a couple of Vindicators!
>>
>>51509402


They handle objectives differently, which in and of itself is a huge change, and they faq'ed the hell out of a bunch of rules. They actively turn over or refute existing rules to suit their whims.

>>51509455

Wasup ITC shill? Played any actual games with the actual rules, or are you just doing their shit scenarios?

>>51509520
ghost arks aren't dedicated transports?
>>
>>51509518
You could, but with the Spell Familiar he can safely truck upfield with the Zombies.

That said, a CSM Sorcerer has access to some great support disciplines, and the Heralds provide plenty of summoning. Having him go Undivided for maximum dice on Telepathy or Biomancy or Heretech or Sinistrum might often be the better option.

Question, I'm trying to shamelessly WAAC Celestine as hard as I can and needed some input from others. Can I do the following?

>add her to a vanguard unit under the formation that allows them to show up when I want turn 1/2 + charge out of deepstrike
>if so would the entire unit get hit and run or just her
>can I stack her orbital strike with my chapter masters using the barrage rule
>if so do they have to be next to each other or can they do this from anywhere that either of them can see
My plan is to put chapter master in a land raider with a solid melee unit and use celestine to harass and tie up enemy shooting units, and possibly even take out enemy armour with her armourbane sword.


Also, what is THE most WAAC way to use her? I'm talking eldar tier WAAC, I want people to be physically upset with me.

>>
>>51509609
give back nids all their cool biomorph options, make synapse less of a crutch that you have to rely on and more of a buff.
>>
>>51509201
>if a formation or detachment also fits the perimeters of a CAD it can count as your primary detachment
Wait, doesn't a Gladius Battle Company fit in a standard CAD?
>>
>>51509578
Really depends on what are you facing. Heretech is surprisingly good since most lists will run at least some vehicles, and you can go all out on it if they have a lot of them. Divination allows you to buff your shooty units, Telepathy for Shriek and Invisibility cheese and so on.

On Exalted, just pick something that lets him buff himself, so mostly ones i listed earlier.
>>
So where the fuck do i put the Dark Apostle in a Alpha Legion Lost and Damned formation? He needs to be close to buff them, but cannot join them because he does not have Infiltrate. What am i supposed to do?

If you want the Burning Chariot because you like the model, get the Start Collecting. Otherwise, I'd just get a bunch of Horrors boxes.

Tzaangors are fragile and mediocre at best in combat. Horrors are much more durable and provide all important Warp Charge. Once you've got the models, you can start summoning them back as they die to keep your numbers up.

>>51509628
>add her to a vanguard unit under the formation that allows them to show up when I want turn 1/2 + charge out of deepstrike
I'm pretty sure they lose that bonus if someone from outside the formation joins them. There was a FAQ about it.
>if so would the entire unit get hit and run or just her
The entire unit should already have hit and run from jump packs, but only one model needs it
>can I stack her orbital strike with my chapter masters using the barrage rule
Barrage just lets you fire without LoS, right?
>if so do they have to be next to each other or can they do this from anywhere that either of them can see
They wouldn't have to see it and the range on orbital strikes is unlimited.
>>
>>51509690
i think i'll get the start collecting with a few extra horrors (pink and blue for the splits after death)
so i have choice and can start a demon army if i want to
just question shall i use one sorceror of the sons for summoning or just the herald as he can't peril that easily?
>>
>>51509628
>>add her to a vanguard unit under the formation that allows them to
show up when I want turn 1/2 + charge out of deepstrike
no, she's not part of the formation parameters so she can't be taken

>>if so would the entire unit get hit and run or just her
celestine confers H&R to any unit she joins

>>can I stack her orbital strike with my chapter masters using the barrage rule
what? no? they're separate shooting attacks you retard

>>if so do they have to be next to each other or can they do this from anywhere that either of them can see
no, read your fucking rulebook

>My plan is to put chapter master in a land raider with a solid melee unit and use celestine to harass and tie up enemy shooting units, and possibly even take out enemy armour with her armourbane sword.
you can't orbital strike out of a land raider, no firing ports

>>
>>51509402
If you want the truth, just google the ITC FAQ and their scenarios. Most of their changes are minor OR are things that very clearly make for a better game (like the Geomancy changes). You aren't going to get anything even remotely approaching the truth out of shitposters like >>51509549 .
>>
>>51509643
yeah it does, pretty much every really really competitive list does

for everything else you can just throw in the other 2/5ths

>>51509710
>>51509628
something i dont understand is why people think they can just build a list using a bunch of OP pieces they read about online and just start winning games like its flipping a switch

every local meta is different, and if you dont know how to run your army you wont beat anyone, or if youre just a bad player

>theres a WAACfag everyone at my LGS doesnt like who just netlists a wolfstar list, he utterly rapes any new blood, but the old guard pretty much never looses to him because he doesnt know how to run his own list very well

I'd stick to using the Herald. You aren't going to want to spend too many dice on Conjuring, since the Sons are so reliant on Witchfires and Blessings to function. Just take an ML3 Herald with Paradox and that should handle all your Summoning needs.

Be aware that Split is bullshit of the highest caliber and that Tzeentch Daemons trigger people like nothing else. If you're going to be splitting, suggest to your opponent that you just have the split Horrors automatically join the unit they split from. Helps keep shit from getting out of hand AND it's much easier to keep track of shit.

While we're on the subject, why do orbital strikes even have barrage if they're shot individually? Or is it because Celestines orbital strike is different from a chapter masters. Would I be able to barrage two chapter master orbital strikes?
>>

>>51509903
>why do orbital strikes even have barrage

>Barrage weapons can fire indirectly. This means they can fire at a target that they do not have line of sight to, as long as the target is beyond their minimum range (if applicable).
>>
>>51509903
guard player here, so im an expert on barrage (and own a rulebook) so ask all your questions

the barrage shots would have to be the same weapon attack coming from the same unit, so unless you have a unit with two chapter masters (wut) it wouldnt flip, youd have to fire again
>>
>>51509929
Ohhh ok I thought that was called indirect fire. Well if barrage means you don't need LoS then why can't you call one down from inside a land raider
>>
Is there even any point in using the Grand Convocation for AdMec? The bonus you get for using it normally is worse than using the separate army lists, there's nowhere near enough actual vehicles to make use of things and you'll never ever get Canticles on everything with it.
>>
>>51509945
OK now I'm confused, barrage DOES mean flipping blast templates. But ok they need to be in the same unit and same weapon type, that makes sense. How the hell would you ever gain multiple orbital strikes to make use of that then. Two chapter masters is all I cam think of
>>
>>51509946
>why can't you call one down from inside a land raider
because it doesn't have any fire points

theoretically you could fire one from inside a rhino or chimera
>>
>>51509988
yeah because it has to be coming from the same weapon, its really meant for artillery and stuff that cant usually mix, no manticores in basilisk squadrons stuff like that so yeah since chapter master is the only one that gets that orbital strike "weapon" youd have to have two in one squad
>>
I'm wanting to get into collecting miniatures and playing with some friends at the local game store. I want a shooting army so i'm naturally looking at the astra militarum, tau and the Skitari. What would people say is the best for a beginner?
>>
>>51510024
And just to clarify barrage is separate from indirect fire? Barrage alone does not give a unit the ability to shoot without LoS correct? IG can do that because mortars and basilisks have both?
>>
>>51509919
Hmm. You're right. Never bother with Das myself. I guess you'll need to hold back either a cultist squad or a CSM sqaud with a rhino to escort him up.

Really though. Since the AL cultist rule doesn't stack with LatD, that formation is only so, so. I'd consider just grabbing cultists out of a CAD or Helcult.
>>
>>51509659
Anyone got an idea?
>>
Quick question, are both the sicaran venator and spartan assault tank in imperial armor volume 2?
>>
>>51510055
barrage allows you to indirectly fire, usually outside of a certain minimum range (based wyverns) and even if you are within the minimum range and you has to have LoS to fire you still benefit from barrages other effects like ignoring most cover and always hitting side armour

>>
>>51510043
Of those probably Tau. Guard aren't particularly hard, but they're a weaker army overall. Cult Mech/Skitarii are more complex to run well. Particularly since their army construction tends to be so restrictive.

Really though, rules change faster than models. I'd recommend you pick the army you think looks the best.
>>
>>51510090
The rules say i cannot join a unit of Infiltrators (units with the Infiltrate rule) during deployment if the IC doesnt have Infiltrate himself. Also i dont think i can "not Infiltrate"

It does.
>>
>>51510122

Have the DA join some Havocs or something during deployment and immediately leave them and join the cultists to run up the board.

Late, but personally I just run Kakophoni whole hog with maybe a spawn or so. It really gives the most bang for it's buck with normal MEQs, though I'm still playing around with comp.

Personally, I suggest full Kakophoni, some ccw some shooty, with a Renegade Knight providing anti-armor back up. Noise Marines will probably eat hordes, so go dual battle canon with an icarus array if you're scared of fliers. Not the most comp list, but should work well in most casual games.

For one thing, fix all the special rules that "don't effect models with fearless or ATSKNF"

Change the phantasm grenades to the harlie version where they have to take a pinning test to make up for their lack of assault grenades.
>>
>>51509402
Mostly their interpretations of the rules modify parts of the game, for both good and ill. If you play whatever army/style is "cool" with the WAAC crowd, you adhear to the ITC houserules. If you don't, or you don't play with such a competative mindset, then said houserules only add confusion and imbalance to the already confusing and imbalanced game.

Here's hoping GW gets their shit together for 8th edition.

I don't have time to pander to ITC shills. Their rules are free to download, go look over them yourself if you want to know more.

>>51510363
I think there's "limited edition" at the beginning and "army organization" being mentioned in the third point.

But I'm just guessing, I don't actually speak the language.

Also square bases what the fuck what were the move to 32mm bases and the roundization of AoS for holy shit. This only makes it 200% more stupid and thus more likely to be true.

Square bases are being introduced so that they can sell them to everyone that just got done buying their new round bases.

Everybody is getting lumped into six "Grand Alliances." I'd bet Chaos, Imperium, Eldar, Orks, Tyranids, Taucrons.

It's going to be AoS style list building. Probably lump a lot of Elites, Fast Attack, and Troops together as the Battleline equivalent.

New CC phase rules. Which is promising.

>>51511009
Have to? No. Some people did. I like how much bigger the 32mm makes astartes seem. It always annoyed me how they'd end up with toes hanging off the sides of the 25mm.

If they are switching back to squares, though, there'd probably be a rules related reason. Which would necessitate switching over.

Looking for some advice for starting a Raven Guard army. The only parts I'm set on so far are the Vanguard 'charge out of deepstrike' formation, and a jump pack Chapter Master with Swiftstrike and Murder. I assume he goes in a CAD so what else would be good pickups?
Plasma Tac squad in a Rhino, Melta Tacs in a pod and an Assault Squad for the Chapter Master? Would Autolas Predators be alright or are Devastators better due to the chapter tactics?

Bossboyz - 1850pts.jpg
410KB, 900x1670px
Reposting from the previous thread, as I didn't get feedback. Does this list look workable for tournament Orks? Using Mogrok's Bossboyz (the Oddboyz) part instead of Zhadsnark, for re-rolling Seize the Initiative, and to get extra outflank/acute senses.

I might replace one of the Looted Wagons, and drop one of the Deffkoptas from the "Deffstar" (Koptas+Bike Mek + Boss + Painboy), so I can run 3 solo Deffkoptas for objectives. Thoughts?

Can somebody who has the Imperial Knight e-book codex do me a favor? I don't see this version in the OP, I think it might be a scan? Apparently there are two versions. I think.

Basically I want to run a chaos warband called the Malefactors, they're one of the chapters that got screwed over in the Abyssal Crusade. According to Lexicanum:

959.M36 - The Malefactors descend upon Alaric Prime, intent on seizing as many Imperial Knights as they can for their own burgeoning warband. Freeblade Knight Gerantius leads the defence of Sacred Mountain before hunting down and destroying enough of the invaders to drive the rest off-planet.[2] Source: 2: Codex: Imperial Knights (7th Edition) (e-book), Freeblades

I just read through the pdf in the link and there's no mention of Malefactors anywhere. The Freeblade Knight Gerantius entry doesn't mention them. So maybe it's in the other version of the codex? If somebody could post a screencap of any mention of Malefactors in that codex, that would be grand.
