Hello /tg/

I've been playing a few casual games with my friends at low points levels (500/750/1000) but I'm hoping to start working my way towards 1500 and 2000 points at a more competitive level.

I know this isn't the best list in Christendom but any advice/points would be great!

General idea is use the Purgation squad to shoot the LRC up the field, drop in the NDK and kick some ass.

What would you say the value of the DG half of Dark Imperium is? Looking into trading it away but have no idea how much it's worth really.

>>55367324
>one of the Nurglenators has a bug belly

Fun.

>>55367559
I think the major thing is clarification of things they only wrote a short amount and would assume would be simple. Forgetting people around the world have various interpretation of written words.

But the game itself is still far superior to 5th, 6th and especially 7th. Not had this much fun since 3rd edition quite frankly.

>>55367559
I think its a strong foundation that GW can quickly chamge or add to with minimal effort. My hope is that the Co continues in this direction and slowly adds tactical choices while correcting rules/units based on player feedback.

I think a lot of useful information resulted from Nova (character spam, conscripts and IG points, chaos shit, etc)

>>55367620
I mean, she was good enough for Charlton Heston.

>>55367572
I don't view what I want as harmful rules bloat.

In 7th edition, the main rulebook had a large special rules section. In addition to this special rules section, some special rules were inexplicably left out of it, and included in sections related to them. Units would often reference special rules from other codexes, or the same codex. The net effect was that when I had to figure out how one unit would interact with another, I was often flipping through 3-5 pdfs, or 2 to 3 spots in the same pdf. It was annoying as fuck.

8th has fixed that. It's better organized. Rules are often just reprinted in full on the unit card without taking up all that much space. If a special rule is referenced and not reprinted, it's something extremely generic, or simple and unique to the faction, so you know where it is or you already memorized how it works.

If you want to know how to units interact, you often only need to look at the two unit entries, instead of 3-5 pdfs. 8th edition is amazing compared to 7th in that respect. And adding more unique rules wouldn't change that. Because you would just reprint the unique rules in full on the unit cards. It may bloat things, by making the unit cards take up more space. I can't argue against that. But that isn't a bad kind of bloat.

>>55367597
Yes, I do hope they clarify some strange things when the release the codex for a faction, or rerelease the indexes. I've seen a lot of issues with movement and abilities that replace it.

>>55367601
I agree entirely. What was the character spam and chaos shit issues at Nova?

>>55367671

>>55367679
I should add, that unit special rules aren't the only way to make things more interesting. If we could get more varied and unique stratagems, more varied and unique wargear, and more varied and unique psychic powers, all of those would go a long way towards making things more interesting and less samey right now.

I might sound like an idiot or an ass hole but I would like if they would nerf IG to the level they were on 7th edition so all the new band wagon players and WAAC fags would leave.

So, since we have half an hour or so before it appears, bets on Metallica Dogma? Personally thinking that "Relentless" will translate into ignoring the Advance penalty on guns or something, so your Vanguard can properly sprint forward while shooting at BS3+. Would be a little useless, but that's not unexpected for any Tactic sans Mars.

>>55367923

Necron, the reason I love my Necron is because of how cold and calculated they can be while trying to achieve their goals while holding a very strict and methodical hierarchy.

They're incredibly pleasing aesthetically to boot, hundreds of thousands of living metal clad skeletons marching perfectly in order to destroy their enemy through direct and perfect strategies as created by their insanely amazing technology and calculated leader.


I apologize for the sperg out but I really love my Crons'.

I do have Dark Angels, again its the very strict hierarchical structure of their brotherhood and steeped in honour and tradition of the great knights of Caliban.

Recently picked up me some Deathwatch and I'm drawn to them because of how unique they come off as without being overpoweringly Mary Sue for my tastes.

Anyway thats my show and tell Anon.

None of the WAACfags are actually playing Imperial Guard is the funny thing. They're all running Imperial Soup to take advantage of Gulliman.

Conscripts in an Imperial Guard army alone are powerful, but not too bad.

I will probably still take the Omnispex honestly. More consistent, and I'll probably be applying that strat to Dunecrawlers anyway for accurate neutron lasers. Still, I can see ATSKNF, faster BS2+ Skitarii being actually decent troops rather than just being good for screening.

>>55368171
The bonus from the tether is situational as with +1 to hit you are naturally hitting on 2s anyway Although I guess you could have a Metallica unit fall back from combat and open up at max BS (Or just use Graia and do the same thing for cheaper but also get to attack in melee.)

I know it's inevitable there would be some overlap with the simplified system they are doing now but I'm still pissed that the 6+ FNP is limited to a specific forgeworld now to be replaced with a pretty useless 6++

I told you exactly what I want. I want unique faction traits and stratagems. I don't want every codex to have a faction that gets to shoot twice in a turn for command points, or fight twice in a turn for command points. I don't want every faction to have the sneaky gits who are hard to hit from a distance. etc, etc. We're getting into league of legends tier sameness. And that is bad, because it is boring. I don't play games to be bored. I don't play 40k to mash largely similar armies into each other.

Why so defensive anyways?

>>55368112
You could always give it to an Enginseer seeing as you'll usually have a couple along to fill HQ slots. Model one as an Electropriest leader and make actual mecha-Saitama. Or just have him fluffed as "Especially proficient at the Rite of Percussive Maintenance".

>>55368298

Maybe we'll get some Strider buffs. Personally I quite like my two Dragoons, and running around with -1 or -2 To Hit would make them properly annoying for shooty armies. Tau get to snapshot at them before they start shoving Fire Warrior squads about and pestering non-Fly stuff.

>>55368307

>>55368025
Much better on Vanguard than Rangers despite the article. Makes them fairly speedy since you can always advance them. Shame there aren't more weapons it impacts because "always running" AdMech could be an interesting army flavor due to their lack of transports.

>>55368391
No. I want every faction to get unique bonuses. I don't care if I end up on the low powered or high powered end of that, so long as my army feels and plays uniquely.

Also, can you really claim that it's more balanced when conscript and character spam exists?

Renegades had the their unique bonuses for formations and characters. Holy shit the fun things you could do with renegades. It's FW, but it's indicative of the direction that GW has taken since 8th.

Daemons had the warp storm, and each daemon faction could play wildly different from each other with quite a few options. The masque of slaanesh had 3 debuffs to choose from, which were all unique. Now it has a -1 penalty or something, and that's it.

Dark Eldar had two different power from pain tables you could choose from, which could be used to really distinguish your army. You could even build a leadership debuffing army and have it be competitive and fluffy and fun.

>>55368430
I agree that more unique bonuses is more interesting. But it's important to understand that even some similar bonuses can change quite a bit in different army contexts. Any trait that affects certain classes of weapon can change a lot depending on what types of weapons that army use and where. I don't think GW needs to always be different for the sake of being different. That said I think the Mars and Graia traits do a better job than the Metalica one. There's a kernel of an interesting army style in there between the forge world and Warlord trait, but I don't think it effects enough of the army to really pay off.

No, fuck that shit! I'd rather get less unique shit while being able to actually enjoy the game with my units than being the at the low end of the stick with useless "unique" shit, I got enough of being the shit army in 6th/7th to last me a fucking life time. You dont know what its like having a "unique" codex and have it be so fucking useless that you cant even win in casual games, so fuck that shit and bring on the "bland" rules as long as the army remains largely viable.

In 7th, leadership debuffing, or freakshow armies were actually viable with dark eldar, because of all the ways they could debuff it, and the unique ways they could punish it.

>>55368546
so those anons were right, you do want broken shit and useless bloat. Because that's what 7th R&H, warpstorm table and the debuffs were.
You have a point on the PfP tables, but stuff that complicated requires a fuckton of time to balance, and frankly I think most people would prefer opitons being added slowly but mostly balanced than getting a ton of either broken or useless options at once.

>>55368704
Cheaper bodies to fill troop slots

Not the guy complaining about no unique rules, but R&H has basically lost all its appeal as a faction without demagogue devotions.

It used to be "build your own chaos worshipping force however you want, and rules to reflect that", now it's cheaper but less reliable guard that can ally with chaos.

The only reason to take it is to have artillery in a chaos force.

This anon makes a valid point with the army context. If I get a +6fnp. For leviathan because they use massive swarms, it looks unoriginal and even not that competitive but paired with large units of gaunts it becomes awesome, makes you lean towards troop heavy lists which would be fluffy for the fleet and a different feel from other fleets such as kraken which might favour cults or ambush or who knows.

Traits can easily feel repetitive if taken from a sterile point of view

So I made a list that I think is nigh-unbeatable in the tourney scene for Orks.

If not unbeatable I can pretty much guarantee a top spot, it's just too goddamn fast with too many bodies. Sure I couldn't do much to armor, but if they don't have any infantry to sit on objectives they weren't gonna win anyways.

and yes I am currently modeling this list, god help me. At least I already owned enough boys to convert.

>>55368721
Right now R&H has 3 things going for it, none of them exciting.

1. Malefic Lords are the most efficient smite spammers in the game. Did you think 8th edition fixed the psychic phase? It didn't.
2. Valkeries for chaos. Sure, you can only take renegade units with them, but that means you can stuff chaos characters in them, which lets you summon daemons very fast.
3. As you said, artillery in chaos. Maybe snipers too.

>>55368582
>The latter seens more likely
Same as it is a variation of Imp. Fists Warlord trait. Which considering Metallica's Warlord Trait is Ultramarine's Chapter Tactic make sense.

But ya otherwise they'd be strong as hell.

>>55368618
looks like the sort of think you'd find in the Epic rulebook

>>55368721

I'm more a fan of the Warp Cults and Imperial Militia rules from 30k, which are similar in spirit but have even more strange choices. Well, all of them are still very low-powered, and they get torn apart by Marines and... everything else.

R&H and WC&IM might be better if there were some minis for them, or if they could compete with each other. As it stands, it's likely they might only be able to compete against each other in some kind of Path/Realm of Chaos campaign.

Are melee blightlords really worth it? No good way to guarantee dron'n'charge, if I'm seeing correctly. And anything will just run away from them if they drop and wait for the next turn to charge. I'd consider shooty blightlords maybe?

Or are swords strictly better?

>>55368939
>Are melee blightlords really worth it? No good way to guarantee dron'n'charge, if I'm seeing correctly.
yes. deep strike and the warp time (because they're HERETIC ASTARTES units) and then charge. A 10 man unit with flails is cheap and deadly as fuck.

>>55368702
One of the major criticisms of 7th reasons for 8th was the bloated special rules in army constructions. Piles and piles of supplement books and white dwarfs with formations and one off rules that people showed of with via printouts of photocopies off the internet. 8th is designed to give you flexibility in list construction, but it's done via a core set of detachments that everyone is familiar with but still let you take pretty much whatever you want rather than piecing together bespoke decisions and formations. Codex rules offer rules to costomize your force but their centralized in the codex so you and your opponent can have a better idea of what each force can and can't do. There is also more of an emphasis on choosing options during play via Stratagems rather than having everything dictated by army construction.

I mean I get it, from your perspective more is better always, period. But there's a real design cost in added complexity for very little practical game benefit. Perhaps they make army construction more interesting in a D&D splatbook and 3.5 prestige classes sense. But they don't really add much in terms of actual play certainly not compared to what Stratagems offer. And it's not like customized armies are totally gone. Each major force has seven-ish sub-factions with a factions trait, Stratagems, Warlord trait and relic that is at least unique within that faction. Far more than most armies have ever seen before. And people meme that I are the same as IF or AL is the same as RG, but they aren't the different units available to these force change how you and what you can use those rules for. And the difference will be enven more pronounced if you aren't comparing two MEQ forces.

Pretty sure it's we at this point. I know this will surprise you, but more than one person is capable of holding an opinion you disagree with.

And I at least have provided some examples. R&H demagogues, warp storms, and making leadership debuffs relevant again.

The point was that morale had used outside of morale checks for casualties, at least for CSM, and it got pretty rapey when psychic shriek was involved.

AGAIN? How many times do we have to tell you this anon, Ld debuffs are better now than they have been in years.

I find it good. Only usually have 6CP and it's never enough.

I fully recognize that having more is not always better. (nice strawman btw, not very subtle). But in this particular case, having more diversity in units wouldn't bring back the terrible days of 7th.

Just reading some fluff from the 8E space marine codex. 'virtually immune to battlecannons'. In reality battle cannons wound a land raider on a 50/50 chance and the land raider only gets a 50/50 chance to save it, one battle cannon shot can *potentially* kill a land raider in one shot, thanks to d6 shots doing d3 damage each. Even lasguns can wound land raiders now :(.

Anyone else sad land raiders are basically paper now? Not to mention their role as safe transports has become obsolete thanks to easy safe deep Striking and and them being charged by 5 grots or random rhino stops them shooting for an entire turn..

>>55368537
Which one?

>>55369018
>Anyone else sad land raiders are basically paper now?
your a retard, there more durable this edition than they've ever been

Plagueburst cralwer is a mystery to me. Its basically a Leman Russ BT, which are quite shit in and of themselves, but its got a few notable bonuses.

1. its much cheaper. Its 50 points or so cheaper than its LMBT equivalent with very similar wargear.

2. Its much tougher, its almost as tough as a Land Raider. 12 wounds with Disgustingly Resillient should amount to 16, same as LR. And it has a 5+ invuln, which should help it stop certain -ap weapons from hurting it too much. I'd argue that the LRs 2+ is better than a 3+ and a 5++ though.

>>55368988
Not all the changes in 8th are positive, what's wrong with pointing out some neat stuff with 7th?

It was shit, but it did have some good ideas.

>>55369013
Nice
I just hope it's in the book.

No. If you liked anything about 7th, and find any faults with 8th, you obviously love everything about 7th, and hate everything about 8th. It is impossible to hold the belief that 7th did somethings right while also believing that 8th is an improvement overall. IMPOSSIBLE. Go back to 7th, we don't want you here. Except if you go back to 7th, we'll resent you for not playing the edition we're pushing you out of. Faggot.

Still played by the entire Horus heresy community and in tournaments many of which will continue to run 7th ed even if Heresy switches to 8E as most of the community think 8th is baby's first wargame ( and they'd be right) and the Heresy community in general is full of older, mature , thoughtful gamers who don't want a beer and pretzels mess.

Dark Lance or Lascannon?

S8, Ap-4, D6 damage

S9, Ap-3, D6 damage

Which would you prefer?

>>55369123
Each las shot has a 1/72 chance of putting one wound on a landraider.

I like how HH, despite having armies that are entirely space fags, still manages to make those armies feel much more unique and different compared to 8th, which has the space fags, non space fag chaos, non space fag imperium, and every xenos.

You wouldn't get me to go play it because I hate the 7th edition base rules, but it is a testament to how unique 7th edition armies could feel compared to 8th edition armies.

>>55369148
Its probably already done.

I talked with one of the heavy metal guys and they said they painted Mortarion 9 months ago.

The one my army gets. But, if you're a DG player asking about the crawler/predator question, I like the look of the crawler for its durability. Quad-las predators can do loads of damage while they live, but they tend to attract so much fire that that's often not very long.

he's probably talking about the mirror of minds/mask of secrets/armor of agony/grotesquerie leadership bomb. you'd deepstrike a squad containing a full unit of grotesques, a haemonculus, a archon with a ww portal and a ML2 spiritseer, then the haemonculus would be equipped with a archangel of pain against tau/guard and naked otherwise. you'd have the ML2 spiritseer use mirror of minds and if the spell cast wasn't denied you could pretty much kill any model in the game instantaniously with no saves of any kind allowed because it's spells where built on dealing damage based on leadership and your necron opponent is sitting on leadership five which means its actually impossible for him to not die to mirror of minds, I used the tactic several times to vaporise storm-surges and wraithknights, it was about 500 points of deathstar though for a unit which had the gimmick of oneshotting any model in the game so long as it had a leadership value

>>55369197
He lost his glasses, he's near sighted.

>>55367436
Dark Eldar.
Used to be a cwe when I started in 7th Ed but I was called a WAAC so I rarely touched them. Saw the Dark Eldar models and switched very soon thereafter. I love the idea of going fast and dying faster.

>>55369123
Well over a thousand.

72 hits for a wound, 16 wounds. Makes over 1100 before you account for ballistic skill or shots per model, which vary depending on range and army composition.

In short, it's a non-issue. Anyone trying to kill a Land Raider with lasguns is either desperate, stupid, or both.

Yeah I've played a lot of 8th now with and against various armies and something just feels 'off' about it. The hilariously absent LOS and cover rules certainly don't help. Though I think mostly its because every army and unit is just kinda homogenised into a bland mass and tactics boil down to pushing your models towards your opponents and rolling dice until someone wins.

Its actually a bit like playing pachinko or 2nd edition talisman also a gw game, fun, but pointless, random and brainless.

>>55368616
where is this guy anyway?

>>55369147

So, you'd statistically need hundreds of guardsmen to kill a Land Raider in one turn of lasgun shooting?

>>55368968
