New 40k game, Eldar players still plagued by reckless faggotry

>a mission type I don't like?
>an engagement goes badly?
>about to lose a ship?
Alt-tab away, and close the game.
Saves my time, and my renown!

And yet again OP forgets to link to previous thread.

>enhanced ram on a fucking retribution
>taunt
>stasis

Anybody else getting that thing where the scoll bar just fucking dissapears when youre selecting ships in port maw or the fleey deployment screen? I need to upgrade muh Swords

Hook, line, and sinker
>implying you don't get loss renown
>not already having every upgrade and favor bought
>having over 10K renown already just to buyback ships you lost
>not turning any mission you don't like into a cruiser clash

About to go to sleep. to add on your ideas, I was thinking on adding large keys on the accordion, said keys being the symbols of the skills such as taunt, Stasis Bomb, Nova canon.

I won't be able to do everything, and it will take time, but I'll try to move on on requests. Give ideas if you wish here, there might be other drawfags lurking by.

waifu addon when?

Night Rear Admiral Drawfag ....sir

>almost done with campaign
>still haven't gotten any sweet space elf pussy for these eldar missions
I mean assistance in fighting off chaos is cool and everything but Eldrathain surely has some banshees he could spare, right?

This is why i like data recovery. Just get a throwaway light cruiser with microwarp and hammer them from behind while theyre chasing His Headless Chicken

Is the server down or something wtf I have not been able to play online ALL DAY.

How about Admiral Ravensburg playing the keyboard?

Are there pictures of all the Battleships with various favors?

I want to get a Slaneesh battleship favor on the despoiler but I'm afraid it will look fucking gay like all the Slaanesh ships do.

So are Eldar players just plain stupid? I just had a game where the guy kept trying to boost into the middle of my Ork and Imperial fleets to do something (I guess trying to 180 turn on my back and line up for that stupid line attack.). Worst thing is that they do this in groups going for the bulk of my army.

Please tell me that at least a few Eldar players aren't this stupid. Restore my faith in the Eldar.

but if I don't do that, you miss out on reminding me.

That is essentially what the Retribution was set up for.

I'm attempting the same in MP.

> wanting the favor of slaanesh
> not wanting to appear gay

Girrrrrrrrrrrrrl mmm mmm

>settling for a banshee
Farseer or bust!

Here ya go.

Is that a Tau head near the prow?

Eldar seems like that race that attracts 2 kind of people the 2 FAST 4 U edgy fedora lords who master them, or retards who played Imperials for so long they use eldar ships like them.

Honestly if you are going to fight against or with eldar you might as well just exit out and retry in pvsp unless your ally or enemy is using an Eldar battleship

Here's a khornate version.

Next posting the plague god version.

Eeeeeets beautiful

Can you post the other battleship type. The carrier one.

...

i always start playing seriously and capitulate if i don't get a good start

sometimes the hope of seeing a voidstalker explode is enough to make me play it out though

It looks like the tau made another cultural exchange with someone.

Honestly it doesn't take a lot to master them, you can be a ham hand retard like me and still win with point-and-click adventure eldar. Also

>tfw I get biel tan on my whole fleet
>people saying saim Han is the best right now
>why can't my initial tactics copying be accurate

Sorry, these are the nemesis ships from single player.

All i can give you is my old SM flavored retribution.

Ok thanks. You would think the artists would had made a image databse for players somewhere

Who is the least fun faction to play against and why is it Eldar?

Bonus round: why is it always Eldar?

its always eldar and necrons in any game

youtube.com/watch?v=rvJsG4F2Img
This should be /tgs/'s theme song already.

I avoided the Lunar like the plague in the beta, but now I finally decided to try it out and i was pleasantly suprised with it's adaptability.

going to make it my new workhorse cruiser.

So how do I beat voidstalkers without relying on gas clouds as IN?

...

Because the designers thought it would be a good idea for eldar to break literally every game mechanic. Their weakness was they were basically an escorts fleet, but armada went lolno and gave them an amazing battleship.

Tyrant is cooler

Microjumps and torpedos? Fighter screens if for some reason you have a carrier as IN

And deprive us from the fun of collecting pics of sexy spaceships?

I've landed direct nova cannon hits on voidstalkers, just to knock off 2 health bars. OP please nerf.

40K version of this when?

Dat open hanger door

Lewd

do you like them better than the tyrant?

I need one or the other to fill out my fleet.


After nova nerf is the dominator complete shit now?

Ill be honest never killed one. The rape beams always get me and i can never catch one for long enough to get the killing blow

Tfw they literally have A Big Red Button But Better

It's fairly difficult to use MWJ offensively now, due to the nerf. I guess I could try torps, but it seems way too easy for Eldar to dodge them.

>knock off 2 health bars
Damn what do ya know, Nova cannons do the damage the tool tip says! Just be Glad eldar doesn't get an auto 2+ dodge on that too. Holofields are way shutter than they are on the TT.

While I find the Lunar a good all-arounder, I think the Tyrant is the better one for smacking other cruisers. Lunar is better as secondary support cruiser that can jump into any situation to help.

short burns at 3-5 k get a hit or two

>Tfw on the TT orks had the worst all ahead full and eldar had vauls maneuver every turn.

You like it that way, don't you?
You naughty little Sororita you.

See i use my Gothic for that as the range means i can engage across a brawl at a priority target with max effect.

Thanks

>no leadership check
>2d6 ever turn if they wanted
>4d6 was a common upgrade

They may have the worst manoeuvrability but on speed you cant say its bad

I-its not like i love heavily armored planetary assault cruisers with thick hot bombardment cannons and broad hangars or anything

...

Tell me... Are you a fore or aft fella?

Fore Fore Fore

Post more rams

Do you like em big?

Just got Ordo Xenos: Eldar's Fate and Heirless Throne from denying the Eldar Prince twice and wiping out the warpgate.

I think Eldar's Fate is a hidden achievement.

Oooooh baby

But kissing is the best part.

>designed my fleet for stealth and asteroid fields

>my enemy is eldar

>get a map with not a single asteroid field on it

>ctrl alt delete

The astroid upgrade would be good if it let you ignore mines to

It's not from the Succubus (male) one, is it?

man the Emperor Class Battleship sucks ass. Maybe if it had a nova cannon it'd be better.

I know playing as Eldar can be fun making people assblastaed at your OP pulsars but playing as chaos is really more sweet seeing how you can be a dick towards allies and it can be called role playing.

Dont think so same artist i think tho. Gujira. Whats a imperial admiral doing browsing those sorts if things anyway? Your sexual attentions should be solely focused on ships

>Hey human wanna sneak off to this cool temple I just found?
>Don't worry your commissar doesn't have to know, he probably won't even notice you are gone.

>Your sexual attentions should be solely focused on ships
BFG KanColle when?

But you know.... the good kind

If I'm doing long range chaos Lance's is the stationary sensor or launched probe a better scouting option?

>Just started MP
>Got muh Chaos Crusier
>Ork player, 2 ships
>BOTH CRUISERS
>One of them level 5
>Dismantles my light cruiser
>Warp my cruiser out

>My puny escort killed his level 5 with a suicide ram
>Escort dies in process
>Cruiser lost in Warp

I'm having too much fun.

Praise Slaanesh!

You will want both desu. the stationary ones are good at denying gas clouds but force you into 10k range.while to probe is generally good scouting tool

It's really hard to say. If you are fighting other chaos the launcher probe is better.

But it might be better with the stationary sensor unless you are using a battleship(which you can't afford to get close)

Using the stationary you are fast anyway so you can fly away if danger got to close, besides if they pull a dick move like staying inside the clouds all day you will only get a brief moment where you can see them)not enough time to kite them)

Also the stationary is create for pegging eldar ships with so they can never hide.

Wacky antics are probably the best thing about multiplayer.

That and Eldar players that are just horrid. I destroyed an entire 3 ship fleet without even losing an escort.

I had 4 escorts that day. I love my cheap-ass LC.

I normally pack a nova cannon while eldar around. A lucky scatter on the nova cannon and eldar escorts cease to exist.

AM I STUCK IN THE WARP? WHY DOES IT KEEP GETTING DATA FROM THE FUCKING SERVER?

ALL DAY NO MULTIPLAYER BECAUSE OF THIS SHIT

I'm running Chaos, with a Ork counter-measure of "I'm better at ramming than you." It's working pretty well so far, I'm also only level 3 admiral, with all of my ships at level 2 now.

you got banned for cheating

Don't think their's a 40k version but here's something from Ravandil 2 that you'll like.
youtube.com/watch?v=rfdMjGUTEHg

>IN v Ork 2v2
> Orks begin by killing my teammate and everything but my light cruiser
>But their concentration on my ally means i kill off 2 light cruisers and a cruiser
>remaining ork warps out his crippled basha and moves in his escorts to cover the escape

>ork BRBs into asteroids while screaming
'YA'LL NEVER TAKE ME ALIVE HUMIE'
>All I can say is 'WAAAGH on orkbro'

I like ork players

I find that Ork players fall into two categories.

1. People who legitimately enjoy Orks, and just want LOTZ UV DAKKA! NEVER ENOUGH DAKKA!

2. Tryhards running the current ramming meta, 50/50 if they're idiots or not.

I wish I was smart enough to know how to code cheats to find exploits

The real one from 2 is better.

>implying french lazy devs are smart enough to deploy decent anti cheat measures
They probably just ban random people.

Anyone else feel the battlecruisers are under priced across the board.

Moreover what do you all think about the unit pricing overall

I mean in a 600 point game some one can take 2 cruisers and 2 battlecruisers plus escorts. I only just got my second cruiser and was fighting this guy, there was no way i was going to get anywhere near the transports

If it was a ban wouldn't it say I would be banned or something?

Facing eldar, I take a dominator and shotgun anything that is about to close to near min range. Usually does the job

maybe

>BFG Kancolle

Isn't that just the Machine spirits?

Do you get to ally the Orks if you refuse the Eldar?

>10k Sensor Range
>Crazy DPS
>4 Launch Bays
>Only two weapon types

U wot m8

Is your Battlefleet named "Pious Pricks"?

>ally
Mate they dont even like their own race let alone humies

Are machine spirits cute anime girl?

Will the Death Korps get a fleet?

They don't have one in the lore. Guard does not equal Navy.
