I can't bring myself to hate any ork player because they're normally a barrel of laughs to play against. Even if you end up stomping them. I unironically hope the army gets better in 8th.

As SM, is it worth allying in an Astra Militarum Platoon as a meatshield?

GW pls give us a new Armageddon campaign that includes formations and models for orks, and a set of formations for the Black Templars that don't require $120 in non-Templar models, as well as a plastic Grimaldus
>>
>>52236355
No because your shit is always better.

Why have a meat shield when you can just pay for units that actually kill other things?
>>
>>52236353
Because Tyranids are an apocalypse army. The larger the points the better Nids get
>>
>>52236344

Exalted Sorcerer has a Force Weapon instead of a Force Sword and may replace
all of his wargear except for his Force Weapon and Aura of Dark Glory with Chaos Terminator Armor and an Inferno Combi-bolter for 25 points

Keep in mind this is the same price a normal sorceror pays, while the exalted does not gain the 5++ due to having it already

Tzaangors
All models have Auto-pistols and Chainswords by default
make them cheaper but dont take an option you can build with the kit (i.e. 2melee weapons) away. its bad for compatibility

With the way the power creep is recently i wouldn't be surprised if you had to.

All these new Cult Mech and Tzeentch players really don't understand and are confused when games against my Nids end in tabling by turn 3.

I might have to take 3 FHT and 2 Crones just to have games.

Do whatever the fuck you want dude you play nids

desu 40k is kind of a braindead game half the time, especially in casual settings. Especially in ITC where the maelstorm objectives are castrated and standardized.
>>
>>52236466
If you're not focusing on running the flying circus it isn't. Yes the flying circus at its point level is the most effective use of points and win games. It's also the most boring use of your points, but it wins.

However the apocalypse formations and the amount of points you get to just throw out. Especially at Dakka Carnifexes in broods. Their relics are less of a killing blow to your bottom line. You can actually justify the Swamlord and Tryon Prime without auto losing.

>>52236462
They're just boring units. Uninteresting play as you thumb your nose to units without Sky fire.

So I should rather throw two units of Vanguards in a Skitarii Maniple and give each unit either Arc Rifles or Plasma Calivers? Anything else worth taking while I'm already fiddling with Skitarii? Ballistarii, Dunecrawlers?
>>
>>52236603
Their stupid bi ped walkers are have a crazy damage potential, low price and super mobility.

Dune Crawler is the best AA in the game.
>>
>>52236603
Dunecralwers are pretty great with either the Neutron Laser or Icarus Array. Depends on what you need though, if you need anything from them at all. Ballistarii are meh, Dragoons are pretty good though. It's pretty funny when they get locked in combat with units that can't hurt them.

Plasma Calivers are pretty powerful but they're expensive and have a pretty high chance to kill their user unless you're using Imperatives to boost the shooter's BS or have them in a dominus maniple for twinlinked shenanigans.

>>52236625
You know, I don't hate the eradication beamer vs infantry blobs. Obviously you can't kill a tank with it, but sometimes you know you're not against any tanks.

How's a Kill Team of Kommandos with Snikrot?

Also, Boss Snikrot was actually BUFFED in the 7e codex, unlike most other units.
>>
>>52236635
It's not terrible, but generally I can put out enough hurt with just Vanguards or even taking the extra heavy stubber along with the Neutron laser to kill blobs pretty easily. Though if you know you aren't going up against anything with a lot of armor or toughness the beamer is probably a lot more point efficient.

Do you allow forge world rules in casual games?

Several codexes don't contain any Lords of War at all, other armies have either old or outright bad codexes populated almost entirely with useless garbage and have to look to forgeworld if they want to be equivalent to actual good armies.

thoughts?
>>
>>52236393
Noted. How much do Captains/Chaplains pay for Terminator armor?

As far as Tzaangors go, it's either the Autopistols cost points and will therefore never be taken, or they don't cost points and they're always taken. One option is obsolete either way.
>>
>>52236846
Why the two extra rangers in a squad?
>>
>>52236856
had 25 points to spare
>>
>>52236846
Drop the rangers for more vanguard, each vanguard should have 2x arc rifles+omnispex.

Destroyer better with plasma, and Sicarans with the Omniscience mask instead of Pater radium.
>>
Why aren't you playing Age of Sigmar? If you care about balanced tournament games it is clearly the better choice compared to 40k right now.
>>
>>52236860
Then spend them on more special weapons on the vanguards and maybe an omnispex.

Or drop them all together and take more vanguards.

Basically Vanguards are significantly better than rangers.
>>
>>52236868
why arc rifles instead of plasma, wont that create problems against dudes with good armor saves? i mostly play against orks and guard so i genuinely dont know
>>
>>52236874
>play Nids in AoS

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW
>>
>>52236812
Ynnari, a Sicaran is just a cool tank and something Chaos desperately needs while loyalists have stronger stuff anyway.
>>
>>52236884
Having one squad of vanguards with plasma isn't terrible, it's just that the plasma calivers are expensive as hell and you've got the kataphrons to fuck up guys with good armor saves. Plus vanguards shit out wounds so at worst you just dump wounds on them until they fail their saves. If you're really worried about guys with good armor saves keep the grav on the kataphrons and swap out the icarus array for a neutron laser. The Icarus array is really good but it's only good if you know you're fighting someone with fliers or skimmers.

Current 40k is balanced if you only play Demons, CSM, Eldar, Necrons, SM, or Tau. You might make an argument for removing Demons and Eldar from the list for being too strong.

If you're playing any other codex, you're only in it for the lore, miniatures, sunk cost fallacy, or the hope that next edition will throw you a bone.

I think this pretty much settles the answer to the question of forgeworld balance in casual games.

Tzeentch Daemons are only problematic when you spam summons and/or run a 2++ deathstar. Everything else is perfectly fine for casual games. Oh, and don't use that dumbfuck new Split rule (as if real people actually own the scores and scores of Blue and Brimstone Horrors necessary.

I think it's because TTS rips models and textures from Dawn of War II where the Taunar doesn't exist. You're not looking at a Taunar, you're looking at a nightmare Frankenstein hodge-podge of Tau parts mashed together in an attempt to approximate a Taunar.

Blood Angels player - is it better to use drop pods or fast vehicles?

Drop pods go where you put them but leave your units exposed.

Fast vehicles cost more but shield your units and jump pack guys as they advance up the board.

The fact that GW hasn't invested a few thousand dollars into producing 40k DLCs for TTS boggles the mind.

I mean it doesn't really considering GW policies in general, particularly considering the way they've always considered video games using their own IP as being competition, as opposed to being opportunities to sell things. That and their total lack of awareness of the world outside of their own company.

They'd sooner make their own client than have to share profits with some indie dev.

Grav Centurions, Space Wolves, Imperial Knights, Tau, Tyranids (hue) and Ravenwing are the only elite armies that aren't shit.

That's a dumb post. A Minotaurs CC-based with grav back up army will absolutely fucking destroy almost all regular SM cheese armies. Context is important. Also Imperial Knights is a completely shit army if your opponent knows what you're bringing and tailors his list.

>>52237204

People here will probably call you a faggot for running either of those but they're not bad choices. Look into Farsight Enclaves for Tau. For Muhreenz look at Grey Knights, Ravenwing, Deathwing, any SM army with heavy relic saturation (Minotaurs, Carcharodons, Relictors, etc etc).

That's not an elite army, and I never said the list was of "elite armies that have no counters". Minotaurs don't even have a single tournament top anyways, I could tell you have no idea what you're talking about the moment you said CC.

So do we know Roboot Guilemens plan for the Imperium? How did the Ecclesiarchy react to finding out their existence is a lie? Do any of these questions have answers?

Dismantling the Ecclesiarchy would take centuries if not millennia. Guilliman isn't even going to attempt to bring them down because as soon as he tries the Imperium is getting ripped asunder. There are far bigger things to deal with than the Ecclesiarchy.

Aside from it making no sense for them to do this, the Ecclissiarchy has tried pulling shit before (Vandire, looking at you) and the rest of the Imperium isn't going to let them do it again. If there were actually high ranking Ecclisarchs insane enough to declare Gulliman a traitor, they'd be either assassinated by the Inquisition or assassinated by their own church.

>>
>>52237719

Under normal circumstances there's not a lot of point to taking anti-air unless you can switch it off again and hit ground targets too.

The ideal Space Marine anti-air solution is the Deredeo Dreadnought.
>>
>>52237719
Stalkers are more versatile, even if just because shot volume and twin-linked mean it can still reliably score a hit or two on a ground target when there's no flyers.
>>
>>52237738
>>52237741
So should I ask my local club whether they're okay with Deredeos and if not just go for like two/three Stalkers?
>>
>>52237419
There's a surprising amount of people like that.

If GW weren't retarded and actually did market research they would realize that by ignoring nids in favor of MORE MARINES, MORE CHAOS, MORE ELDAR, MORE MARINES, MORE CHAOS, they're losing out on a pretty big chunk of the fanbase that is never going to buy that other shit and just wants gribblies.

That doesn't make sense. If you want to breed prodigiously you need a small number of males and a much larger number of females kept around for breeding purposes. That's why armies tend to be male dominated throughout history.

Yeah, and the Eccissiarchy hasn't spent the last 10,000 years putting up stained glass renders of Magnus in cathederals up and down the length of the galaxy and preaching that he was one of the greatest Saints of the Imperium, Son of the Emperor himself. for that matter, I'm not even sure how much the average Imperial citizen knows about the traitor primarchs; I'm guessing that's info the Imperium in general probably doesn't want spread far and wide. But the point is that Gulliman is very well established in the mind of the common man as a chosen son of the Emperor, who was loyal and fought by his side, so him coming back is like the Second Coming for the average Imperial citizen.

No, it really isn't. It's been out for years and it's painfully clear that they're never going to make the game they originally advertised. Instead, we got an abysmally shit barebones Battlefield. The game has no real content; almost no maps, almost no weapons, almost no vehicles, and almost no players. Everything feels stiff, from moving to shooting to getting wounded. The graphics look like shit but you still need a good rig to even run the game. The playable races all function exactly the same except with different particle effects and stats. Even if you manage to get a full game going, the maps are poorly designed and feel empty and dead, even in the heart of combat. PvE is a joke.

If you want a 40k game, just wait for DoW3. If you want a nice sci-fi FPS, try Planetside 2. At least you can pretend it's 40k.

The thing is, the game is still technically salvageable. The assets are good. The netcode is mostly working. All they need to do is brush up on the movement and shooting, add in more vehicles and weapons, and tighten up the map. They don't even need to make it a huge persistent world like they promised, just having a decent 40k Battlefield clone would be fucking fantastic.

But they're not going to do that.

Knowledge of Horus at least seems to be widespread enough for his name to be used as a curse. The Ecclesiarchy could easily proclaim the guy marinating in Chaos venom for 10000 years a heretic, or just a false manifestation sent by the Ruinous Powers.

Besides, Guilliman was never a fedora-tier atheist like daddy. Pre-heresy Ultramar tolerated religion as long as it wasn't subversive.

You aren't an asshole if your model count consists of 4-5 models.
Once you decimate one or two people word will spread (if it hadn't already) and people will DEFINITELY tool their lists. Against these lists you have little to no hope of winning games.
If you're doing an all knight army I'd suggest Renegade knights because they're the most customizable. Double avenger gatling cannons are disgusting and obliterate 3+ armor and AV and one knight outfitted with one or even two thermal cannons completely wipes terminator equivalent squads.
For loyalists the Baronial Court is good as it improves your shields, the Renegades option only providing Preferred Enemy for other knights and visa versa to themselves. Cerastus Lancer, Cerastus Acheron and two knight crusaders with avenger gatling cannons, rapid fire gatling cannons and twin icarus autocannons for anti air are really your best bet.

Similarly War Convo and Eldar Wraith spam with D scythes don't care either.

Finally someone else said it too.
From what I understand Relic went with a more "vibrant" artstyle in order to better convey different units, abilities, etc. but it doesn't seem to matter when every unit's animation is followed by this particle effect orgy.

Not to mention that the sound design seems... not great.
We've gone back to the semi-popgun noises of DoW1 for a decent number of guns versus the distinct chatter of weapons in DoW2.
Say what you will about it but DoW2 had some fucking fantastic sound design.
Like the DoW3 tankbusta rokkits sound like firecrackers and are barely distinguishable during the firing cycle or impact whereas the DoW2 rokkits sounded like a fucking handheld mortar.

>I think I know how to fix Orks lads
>Besides the obvious small tweaks, like initiative, strength (maybe) or a FnP, I propose they have unit rules based on how many models are in a unit, ala Cult Mechanicus canticles. The more models in a unit, the more meme magic, the stronger their abilities become. Kommanods getting stealth, Boyz getting fearless and/or a stat boost, tankbustas losing tank hunter if the unit is too small, etc. It would be fluffy, fun for Ork players, and it would encourage people to buy more models, making (((investors))) happy.

You're shit and your idea is bad. Needing a dozen boyz to get what units should already have because of a misunderstanding of how Orks work is the worst fix I've heard yet.

What Orks need is:
a) The core rules not to fuck horde melee OR a way around how the core rules fuck horde melee.
b) To not run off for no fucking reason.
c) Not to be more fragile and weaker versions of everyone else, with an added downside of RANDUM FUN (costed just the same though).

Ld8 nobz, double I on a charge if there are at least 2d6 boyz charging (use the charge dice if you want to keep rolling down), and access to USRs consistent with other armies are what orks need. Replace mob rule with stubborn or any of the prior versions of mob rule that actually worked and weren't a hamstring timewaste dicenoise generator.

I started collecting guardsmen back right before they got the first dex to include valks.

Wanted Vietnam era Airmobile guard and was willing to start throwing money at forgeworld to get walks when I had the money. Then new dex comes out, and no one will stop whining about how OP valks and vendettas were, and they were literally the main reason I started collecting.

So I jammed as many of them in my list as I could anyway and told them to suck it.

Hell I still do now that filling half your points with fliers isn't particularly smart.

Im just getting into the game and formations seem like a really fun idea. Though the application doesn't seem great since a lot of it is either an attempt to patch a unit that should have just been fucking rewritten (it would take the same page space to replace the stats for a possessed as to have the favoured of chaos formation) or something horribly broken to get you to field a ton of an expensive model.

>I wouldn't play the game anymore without formations.
The good formations are too good, and the bad ones are usually awful. They add a lot of flexibility, but it can easily lead to skew lists which make for bad games. As that's were I get my pickup games, it's a good ruleset for that.

>>52238787
Idea is okay, execution is really flawed. Really though they're bad for the game as it makes competitive games more prone to skew and narrative gamers are fine with ignoring a CAD to forge their narrative.

I too am looking to sell some models. USA only. Most of this is NIB with the following exceptions:
-The Dark Eldar wyches, warriors, and one raider are open but complete
-The Dark Eldar incubi are partially build but complete
-The Eldar Cloudstrike Squadron (the 3-Falcons box from Apocalypse) is open and one model partially built
-One Catachan battleforce is open and missing a few pieces (used in a Cadian/Catachan kitbash from half a decade ago), but the other is unopened.
-The Leman Russ is open but looks complete.

The Cadian boxes are all of the older 20-count packaging, NOT the current 10-man format.

I'm not sure I'm willing to get rid of the Russ or Chimera as I could still use them.

The core game is decent for an arena 3pv shooter.

Heavily themed lists can skew it too. Even an Ork "Deff Skawdron" theme list will take out an army unprepared to deal with that much air units (and die instantly to any army that is). The poor guy who just wants to run a fluffy Siam Hamn army can't find a game either.

If the Eldar and Tau players are any good you will have lots of trouble. I'd recommend the Emperor's Wrath formation to ignore scatbikes cover saves, and to get Hydras that can ignore skimmer cover saves.

Tau will have a lot of ignore cover and Eldar will have lots of D and volume of shots, so your HWTs even behind an aegis will get ripped up. I'd go for Lascannons in blobs, maybe Plasma Guns in the squad too depending on how many big units they bring like Wraithknights/Lord and Riptides/Ghost guys/Stormsurges.

Pask in a Punisher is good. I'd recommend giving him Multi Melta sponsons and a Lascannon and have his buddy be an Executioner.

This is something I'd recommend taking against Tau and Eldar. You'll want the Vox casters for the Emperor's Wrath special ability to twin-link, but since you'll have one in the squads, you might as well take one for the normal CCS to give them consistent ignore cover orders. Volkov's Cane will mean that your artillery will always be ignoring cover. Cheap Astropaths for Prescience. I had 5 points left over, so I gave the Engiseer Meltabombs, but you can end up dropping stuff to add another Astropath if you want. I personally really like PCS with Mortars because people always forget about them so the Mortar is always going off chipping away,
