Yes, exactly. This way GW can massively improve their margins by not spending fabricating poorly selling NPC models.

It's a balance thing, if you talk to any solder who's been through basic training they can tell you hitting someone only half the time would be a miserable hit rate, of course being on the range is a lot different from shooting at a moving target in combat, but if they were trying to be "realistic" then space marines would probably be like BS8 and a vindicare assassin would hit on 2s rerolling 6 times
>>
>>53001105

Ah, I forgot about them. On the other hand I think these are just 5 books where they put the basic rule for all of them, not alliances. Because Necrons and Eldar teaming up makes almost no sense after the War in Heaven.

So I dont think its going to be AoS grand alliances. They did say that they are coming out with new factions, I imagine some will simply be more stratification of imperium forces, but we might see some new groups as well. My money being on a new xeno empire.

What the actual fuck, the only changes are that you only have to get within 1'' and no longer base-to-base.

And that units can fire overwatch multiple times. What. The. Actual. Fuck.

Melee better be fucking devastating when you do reach melee GW, because I'm not seeing how CC has been made a more important, viable tactic in 8th so far.

I don't like that because it just makes you easier to be charged.

Oh well, it won't be any worse than it is now for charging. I'm just a little let down because everything else they have said has been amazing so far. This however, is disappointing and will likely make Ork boy blobs/Tyranids and Guard blobs less good and instead reward tanky deathstars that pop out of transports.

>>
>>53001311
It just depends how much they strengthen melee, the biggest issue with it in my opinion was it's so inconsistant, massed AP2-3 is hard to come by and having an AP at all is rare, usually orks are getting saves, if they make stuff like choppas and chainswords -1 AP then it'll consistently kill a lot more once you get there, which will help offset the fact you have to get right in the enemies face and eat a shitload if overwatch just to get stuck in

M+D6 would have been great.

Please, you Aeldari posting fag, explain how this isn't in most ways a copy paste of AoS.
We have AoS magic. We have AoS charge phase. We have AoS battleshock. We have AoS keywords. We have AoS mortal wounds. We have AoS monsters get weaker as they lose wounds. We have AoS everything can wound anything.
There are differences, sure, but you're an idiot to deny sigmars influence on 8th.

You're an idiot if you think people are denying the influence. You're aware that they can add similarities without copy-pasting, right? Seriously dude, there's no need to put words in people's mouths so you can argue against yourself and whack off for how right you are. Even if it seems similar to what they're saying, adding shit to it is nothing but you arguing with yourself. Why even bother with other people then?
>>53001442
And you know what to expect with pretty much all of the other rules that you aren't currently playing with and that it won't fuck with the balance in 8th when people decide to ignore the rules before playtesting, right?

Really though, we don't know how shit's gonna play out, good or bad. I have hopes but that could be wrong. There's no need to act like you know shit you don't, and claiming that it makes sense doesn't make it anything but acting like you know shit you don't.

One of the few good things AoS has and lots of people were hoping this would come to 40k. Because monsterous creatures have been bullshit for a long time now.

It's pretty good, there's a good number of shops scattered about in the more touristy/commercial areas and plenty of gaming clubs, just due to big/dense population.

If you don't drive like me, it's handy have various options for gaming that are all pretty well connected by public transport.

One, not for a good long while. After Angelus and probably the book after that.

Two, may be good then because you can shoot pistols when locked in melee, so stick him at the back of a squad to tank for him and unleash Chain Fire plasma into someone's poor face. BA Moritats may even get their +1 To Wound with Inferno Pistol chain fire, depending on how they word the rules.

Three, damn good taste in movies. I was going to make a Harlequin Shadow War squad using some Not!Delaque minis converted into Grammaton Clerics, shoot myself some Grey Knights, but no-one seems to play that much around here.

I threw 42 dice at a CSM terminator squad today, because it was dumb enough to stand inside rapid fire range of my Fire Warrior gunline. Bumped them up to BS5 with Hunter Cadre and a single markerlight, only three missed. There were something like 25 wounds he had to save (to wound roll was shit) and he ended up losing five Terminators and Huron Blackheart to fifteen Fire Warriors. I ende dup getting tabled though, since I run tanks and infantry, and he had two Heldrakes and a Renegade Knight. Still had fun, though.

I really don't get the logic here. They add in Falling back as an easy Counterplay to assaults that puts at least some thought into counteracting a charge, then just roll over all the stuff from 7th to make it still hard to get in?

The able to overwatch multiple times thing is really stupid, since if only benefits you if they units that charged were weak enough to die or if your over watch shooting is bonkers

A Tau gun line will literally be impossible to assault unless they remove supporting fire or markerlights, and as a Tau player I would much rather keep either of those over this stupidity.

>>53001698
Problem is that that was never the thing that needed buffing. Even when any CC unit will tear through my Skitarii like so much paper, CC was still completely useless because I could then just shoot them after they jumped a 250 pt assault unit on 100 pts of Vanguard. Now they can almost always be shot, and if they make them more lethal then all it does is remove the possibility of two or three getting away. At least it removed the penalties for being too good at melee, but it did that by making sure the penalty applied at all times anyway. My Rusties will forever be sad. Although maybe a bit less since they won't be IDd, just die more to multiple wound weapons that are probably S6+ anyway.

finecast was after the necron reboot right about 6e.

5e models were reasonably serviceable with a number of knockouts like every era.

Marker lights don't last longer than one shooting phase now. If you want to utilize them in overwatch, you have to use Supporting Fire with a markerlight unit, hitting on 6's and then you can utilize them for the rest of your Supporting Fire.

I'm pretty sure a lot of people have been replying to you. It's not the same ones. Seriously, it's hard to read your post without seeing someone screaming "JUST ADMIT I'M RIGHT GOD DAMNIT" then autistic screeching. No one needs to admit anything you obsessive fuck, sometimes people just think what you say is stupid, and you're not fucking important enough to demand that people agree with you. Fuck, you're not important at all. No one gives a fuck about what you think, they just want you to stop acting like a fucking idiot.

And the irony is the fact that you can't figure out that other people are saying it's not that damn close, just that they took a lot of shit from AoS but aren't going full retard with it. Fuck, do you have any idea of how human interaction works? There's a reason so many people talk shit on you.

Only person with fake arguements here is you.
From the beginning it was contended that 8th would be AoS with slight differences, hence it was called "AoS: now with strength and toughness!" But you disagreed with that claim, and when all the similarities were pointed out, with the repetion of the fact that "yes there will be some differences," something that at no point was denied, you went full retard, claiming that because it wasn't 100% copy and pasted, which nobody ever claimed to be the case, that means you were right that the people who said it was a hell of a lot like AoS had been "BTFU'd," and then when you were called put for being a "retarded autist" because you took stuff 100% litteraly you decided to throw a shit fit assuming everyone else was mad. And after all that, you still refuse to admit that yes, it is in fact AoS with some slight differences, which is all that anyone has claimed.
>Why don't you actually start a topic, maybe ask some questions, post what you're working on? :)
Because the threads almost dead, it's all shit anyways and calling out your autism fills my time as I wait for some electrons to diffract through nickel.

no second you fucking idiot.
this is the codex i fucking played in the won that introduced hestan and shit.
there was no mythical second codex that you were pointing to
like i said, all of the shit Vanguard, sturnguard, thunderfire and characters came out in metal
METAL one of the SOLE reasons i didn't buy the sturnguard is because of that.
metal was expensive for 5 fucking models.

>Dude do you even know what you're talking about? Codex Smurfs came out at around the same time as Assault on Black Reach.
yes, like i said the dex always fucking somes out with the new editions you git.
like i said there was no codex at the tail end.
and 5e did not launch with finecast.

>If you say so. Nice source by the way.
>company is switching to resin
>let us leave some models this other expensive material and forget why we swapped over.
no idea why they did the finecast in metal but it's largely immaterial
you said here >>53002391 special characters were isntantly metal.
you were wrong, the entire reason why were are on this tangient is because you need to push the goal posts.


>The majority of metal models were REPLACED by shitecast but a rare few are still produced in pewter
Let's say i concede that, If it's such a small group of items, say in armies i don't play and most don't then it's a reasonable and honest mistake.regardless, the main line was still finecast, including say stock vanilla codex space marines which excludes up to that point DA, BT, BA,SW and likely some of chapters that i don't remember or care about.

>that's not how fucking economies of scale work.
irrelevant to a mater of history, my claim was they stopped stocking the vast majority of metal models and replaced them with finecast. now this is accounting for human error
though i think i can give you a definite time when it came out.
i think it was 8th the wardian High elves armybook for fantasy. right round nucron time

It says you can't move within 1' without declaring a charge, and you're only prevented from firing when they are within 1'. So you can't move into the range that stops them from firing unless you declare a charge on them.

>>
>>53003037
Being exactly 1" away from something means they are -not- within 1". It's the difference between "equal to" versus "less than."

In your example, the wolves would not be within 1" of the enemy unit (the rules prevent this since you did not charge), so the enemy unit is still completely allowed to shoot.
>>

Whatever you found is definitively wrong. You are not within 1" if you are at 1". Being within 1" would require that the distance be less than 1".
>>
>>53003330
>>53003505
>>53003604
You're both right/wrong, in math any statement, such as "within" can be strictly or weakly true. If it is strictly true then it does not include the boundary, and would be less than but not equal to. If it is weakly true then it does include the boundary, and would be less than or equal to.

>>53003672
So you're arguing that a game's rules is potentially using "within" to mean "less than or equal to" rather than strictly "less than."

The problem I see if that using the "weakly true" definition causes a rules issue with an overlap of meaning. That alone would lead me to discard that interpretation and stick with a "strictly true" application.

Remind him that he couldn't even ressurect his own Primarch and a second founding chapter that NEVER STOPPED CRUSADING had to do it for him and then enjoy his tears.

You also have to consider that we haven't yet seen how the rule is strictly written, so maybe it's going to be written more precisely in the actual rulebook

And, even if it wasn't, the weakly version is going to be exploited and GW would be able to release an immediate FAQ like they did a few releases ago

The Covenant in Halo is a great example of what the Tau could've been: an alliance of different races/species of aliens that all fulfill different battlefield roles and have unique weapons

Well that's it, we've officially found the best thing on the internet. Everyone can go home now.

True, but we also don't exist in a world where gorilla mushrooms charge full steam at you. Or "tiny" bugs that are larger than wolves come charging at you in numbers that literally blocks out the sun.

Too bad GW gave up on giving us more xeno races in favor of more beep boop robots.

>LGS sets up escalation league to bring in players since 40k is basically dead
>Local “40k club” made up of a few members, all egotistical, super tryhard , believe current 40k is legitimate “competitive” game. Call themselves “the Wolf Brothers”
>Quite often will play with new players to stomp them, have ran out most everyone from multiple local stores and games
>Myself and 8 other people join league, they immediately start asking for games. Taking scatterbike and Warp spider spam Eldar, Chaos Cultists deathstar list ect. Telling very new players they’re “fluffy lists” and should be fun games
>Some of the others don’t know any better and after getting stomped on turn 2-3 no one agrees to game with them past 1’st week, they all get super pissy stating no one is “tough enough” to take them on
>Have an enjoyable league with like minded individuals, none of the Wolf Brothers are in Top 3 at the end

Their crying has been hilarious, gotta love some of the people this game attracts

Also tau bs is balanced around markerlight boosting it. 5th edition codex had an option for Ethereal to take bodyguard firewarriors that cost +2p/model and had bs4.

Insuferable faggots and yiffs, what a combo.

>Running Eldar
>Not Thunderwolf Barkstars

Leman Russ is disappointed in them and should've given the Old Yeller treatment.

There are some gaps in your story. You spent 90% of the time talking about how they stomped everyone with WAAC lists and no one wanted to play them, then suddenly you end with how they aren't in the top 3. What happened?

How did you and others beat them so hard? Those delicious details matter!

If Ballistic Skill 3 is minimal training, and 4 is well-trained, and 6 is computer-guided precision

how fucking good at shooting do you have to be to have a bs of 8?

>“the Wolf Brothers”
Seriously, what the fuck did they have in mind ?

Sorry, that was my mistake on the wording.

They only really played anyone week 1 and a little 2 and then couldn't get games in after that since they would show up, ask for a game, everyone would deny and they'd sit there and either play each other or do nothing.

They couldn't get the points to get into top 3 due to lack of games

The stomping was prior to the league, they were the only ones who would come to the shop(s) to play and anyone new would quit soon after or never return since they were the only opponents.

An imperial assassin

i understand but what exactly does that entail
>>
>>53005086
You warp space time so the bullet curves around things to hit the target.

BS 10 tunnels through space/time to hit the target before you even aim and shoot at it.
>>
>>53005118
Oh okay, that makes sense. That's hilarious. Sad they were such faggots, but great that they got blown the fuck out at the end.

BS 8 is well-trained with a twin-linked gun.
