Should I try making some female Genestealer cultists?
Brody Williams
8th for doubling Ork wounds and hit points is both fluffy and fixes the army
Mason Torres
And the autistic argument about invuln saves from last thread
Elijah Hill
I might playtest that against my Ork playing friend and report back.
Daniel Brown
>hit points ?
Connor Johnson
>8th for doubling Ork wounds and hit points, as well as providing free global FNP and a 2++ save from MoT, because it is both fluffy and fixes the army FIFY
Julian Diaz
>8th comes 7th i guess ork players are as autistic as orks themselves, especially if they think that orks as good in the current meta
Dominic Kelly
That's the wrong bingo board. This is the latest
Isaiah Williams
user means Hull afaik.
Blake Robinson
No this is the latest
Austin Cook
T4 2W seems a bit much for 6 points. Maybe T3 2W.
Justin Edwards
>""""""""wrong"""""""" >implying go fuck yourself with your shitty forced meme friend, although I know you will anyway since you actually think it's funny and actually take pride in having created something so autistic
Jayden Williams
literal but incorrect Was posted after.
Jose Morris
>6 Hull points on an Ork Trukk That's fucking retarded.
Gabriel Lewis
Thing is though, they're still just Orks even if they manage to close the distance. This change simply makes it so that they actually stand a chance of getting stuck in.
Yes well, shouldn't have rushed that. Meant hull points.
>Ramshackle 6 hull point Trukk careening across the battlefield with random trophies and bits of scrap being blown off it before a single missile blows it apart
Adrian Murphy
I swear to fucking god if you're forcing me to trip just to maintain the bingo board, while simultaneously popping one of the tabs for people. Let's not just maintain two shitty standards for bingo boards.
Jayden Torres
yes please
Nathan Miller
That would be the point. >still gone after first pen desu.
Hunter Harris
You mean that's fucking glorious.
Jose Walker
My bad.
Charles Kelly
So when an Aspiring Sorcerer casts Force, does it count as a blessing affecting his unit for the +1 invuln?
Someone over on DakkaDakka doesn't think so, arguing that it needs to affect the entire unit.
Liam Kelly
Anyone think having a move stat like in AoS/Fantasy would help 40k or make it worse?
Colton Martin
It's on the "Autist Bingo" for a reason Just wait for a fucking faq and ignore it for now, no point bitching over it
Daniel Martin
If the ruling for the O'ralai argument applies, then it would be the whole unit that needs to have the rule, or rule conveyed, to be effected.
Jayden Barnes
>Sigmarising 40k
William Nguyen
Does Mark of Tzeentch give me a 2++ save as a FMC doesn't count as a FMC in a 1001 point list?
Dylan Sanders
Ehh, would likely only make shit worse if they don't implement it surprisingly well.
Isaiah Davis
If you can make something a qt girl, you should always do so.
Luke Nelson
...
Christopher Butler
And this is why is the better one
Luke Clark
I think the biggest thing that would help fix 40k is having AOS's turn order system. So that both players have to take turns 'activating' units, rather than "My entire army shoots yours, your remaining army then shoots back". And it lets much more strategy into the game.
Bentley Stewart
>Over use of the bait meme on something that isn't classified as bait
Xavier Ward
If moving and shooting happens uninterrupted I wouldn't be opposed to that.
Matthew Morales
Could you give me a rundown on that "activating" thing?
James Sullivan
Where are my felinids?
Chase Nguyen
>still gets a response
Landon Taylor
Mark of Tzeentch is fine, Rubrics are TEQ in an army that has neither Land Raiders nor some Termies. For optimum strength, it's ruleset requires a gamble for a 1001 point list, which has a 1/3 chance to get your opponent to sperg out at you every single turn. Also requires the use of FMCs to maximize it's average invulnerable save - a good 1kSons player would know that some well supported Horror unit is a cheaper and arguably better source of anti infantry fire power than the other units. I've seen a couple of posts of people saying the 'improve' MoT option (to a maximum of 3++) can subtract. It actually doesn't. Twice as hard to pull off as naysayers claim.
In my experiences of playing with 1001 point lists, the FMCs was undoubtedly not MCs. They're just expendable meatshields. Having a whole army oriented around them would be incredibly boring. Also, you generally need to balance out every monstrous/gargantuan creature with some decent amounts of FMCs or you will eventually get worn down/shut down in the later parts of the game. Even in an army of rerollable 2++ Sorcerers, a "fun" army to play against is something that tries to bring all the neat units into the battle in a combined arms fashion. Not just spamming any one single unit.
But please, don't just take my word for it. Any time another non Tyranid player complains about "muh Flyrants or muh DPs", clear, empirical evidence is usually the best form of persuasion.
So I present to you a Frontline Gaming video, a supposedly "competitive" 1001 point list of the War Cabal and 2 MoT Sorcerers, getting basically TABLED by Flying Monstrous Creatures.
Are 1001 point lists too strong? Well, the evidence of this video conclusively proves they aren't. Quit bitching.
Austin Torres
You roll off for who goes first every game round and CC works by the active player choosing a squad to attack, then the other player picks a squad to attack, and then continuing back and for till all squads that can attack have attacked. There are no initiative values
Going first T1 is freakishly powerful unless you are null-deploying and most armies can't do that
Ian Sullivan
Hmm dare I say that sounds better?
Carson Wilson
Holy shit, yes, bring it back.
Levi Powell
Thank you for the well thought out answer
Jordan Jackson
Huh, that's pretty cool. I'm sure they could build on it by making some rule where models who are fluff-wise faster/more agile either get some "pre-emptive" preparation or action move of some sort if they pass a roll or something.
Chase Cox
...
Mason Robinson
holy shit, you guys are still going on with the 1001 points bs?
Noah Gray
So are you now, cockmaster
Ian Gray
Would it make sense for DA successors having Watchers in the Dark? Also, for DA sucessors, and the inevitability that the DA exclusive stuff like termies and vehicles having DA icons and stuff on it, would they still keep them? Or would they be different, as I'm considering doing a DA successor, but then I realized how much something like that could trigger my autism if there's no lore explanation.
Kayden King
>just found out I'm getting a $2k check from my dead grandfather
This is coming to 40k and soon me thinks. Same with termies armour granting ±1 wound
Evan Hernandez
Nevermind, the guy is saying Force does work because it technically affects the entire unit, it's stuff like (lol)Boon of Mutation which doesn't work because only one model.
Joseph Lee
That was meant to be a +, stupid Google pixel
Levi Gomez
We've created some kind of meme black hole, now all the memes are combining into one turgid mass.
Soon we will enter the meme-void.
Leo Green
The Meme of Terror or the Eye of Memes? Or the Memestrom?
Josiah Wilson
Don't fret, I knew what you meant guuuuuuuurl
Xavier Reed
So now that the stupid debate about MoT capping your invul at 3++ is over I have another question.
The wording for BoT is kinda vague and it looks like to me you could argue that it stacks the +1 invul for each blessing you successfully cast on the target. What do you guys think?
Easton Adams
We need to stop before we create a Chaos God of Memes.
Josiah Hall
Can you post the wording of BoT so we can read it?
Noah Morales
Memelal has always been here, waiting in the gap between realities.
Luke Diaz
Yea, it's a very common mechanic, it's frankly a wonder GW didn't use it before. Another cool addition would be to introduce reactions, for example, Overwatch counting as one, and thus consuming the unit's activation for that turn. Would go a long way to make things more tactical and make melee easier to pull off.
Lucas James
Sure.
Tyler Perez
>Minotaurs fag Should I get a knight or a Leviathan? No, you don't need to know the rest of my list, I just like cool units.
Hudson Anderson
Sounds to me like it does stack. Though who knows what GW meant here, it is kinda vague.
Note that it would take 3 different blessings on one unit of rubricae to get it to 2++, for reasons mentioned last thread.
Jacob Baker
Join the Leviathan club!
Christian Jenkins
Leviathan.
Christian Roberts
I think the intention is to only improve the save once, regardless of how many blessings are cast on the unit. If they had intended it to apply multiple times then the wording would've been closer to 'if a unit with VotLR is affected by a blessing, their invulnerable save is improved by 1 per blessing they are affected by until the start of your next Psychic phase."
However, that isn't 100% clear - they could've worded it to be explicit, eg. saying something like "a unit may only have its save improved once per phase in this way", but they didn't.
tl;dr: I think RAI is you only get the +1 once, but the wording isn't apparently clear either way.
Angel Myers
Yes. Or it would have said "each time the unit is affected by a blessing"
But >GW in charge of rules writing
Bentley Diaz
Get a Leviathan, join the obvious "leviathan owners club". You get to swap stories about how your Leviathan either carried the entire game, or died like a bitch to like 50 something haywire shots, or the entirety of your opponent's army.
Xavier Wright
get a leviathan, a dreadnought drop pod and 2 cyclonic melta lances cuck any super heavy you come across with 6 s9ap1 18" melta shots at bs5
Eli Anderson
Okay my dude, I will join the Leviathan club. Now to paint my termies, contemptor, and marines, repaint my Spartan, finish assembling fire raptor and start assembling my sicaran first. Perfect timing for Christmas
Landon Young
What are those bits attached to the RG dread's legs?
Jeremiah Hill
I haven't played in years and I might be starting a new army soon. Skiitari and Genestealers look pretty cool. I'm also open to other non MEQ armies, preferably with a low body count. What are some good kits to get to 300pts fast.
Charles Miller
They're tactical pouches, for carrying all sorts of things. Like ammo for his combi-bolter, when I finally get the damn arm from chinaman.
Christian Campbell
thats retarded raptors user he wouldnt be able to open the tiny little pouches with his GIGANTIC FUCKING POWER FIST
Adam Rodriguez
>Now to paint my termies, contemptor, and marines, repaint my Spartan, finish assembling fire raptor and start assembling my sicaran first. Perfect timing for Christmas
You can do it, I believe in you! baby{/spoiler]
Zachary Jenkins
That's why he stoops down to one of his meatsack buddies and asks them to help him field-reload his combi-bolter. Even venerable ancients run out of ammo!
Also if his aforementioned meatsack buddies run out of ammo, they can grab it off their contemptor buddy.
Chase Adams
TACTICOOL
Brody Campbell
Fuck yea tacticool. They from Anvil? Doesn't look like either SM or IG.
You should add on one of those small mechanical arms form the Kataphrons or the Kastelan datasmith. Nothing says bling operator operating operatively than a cybernetic tactical arm for automatic reloading.
Cameron Rivera
He obviously uses magnets you goddamn heretic
Dominic Bell
what the fuck, how do those work
Andrew Perez
>grenadier >catgirl >in space marine armor
I don't know what side of me this bugs more, the Imperial Guard player seeing this used as a grenadier, or the space marine player seeing this be used as a Grenadier
Nathan Roberts
Wow, I had no idea my idea had already been used by GW. Well then, here's hoping for 8th Edition!
That being said, even 10 HP Orkanauts would still be pretty bloody useless. On the other hand, 4 HP T5 Nob Bikers, and Tervigon_on_a_bike Warboss on Warbike would be amazing.
Asher Wilson
Raptors user is a pretty incredible genius. Only he could create something that's retarded on literally ever possible level.
