Ignore vertical distance, its fucking amazing for 2 ppm
Kayden Gray
you ignore vertical movement when calculating distance i think or something along those lines
Jack Allen
I need a OPFOR for my Tyranid army. Which is more tastier Ultramarines or Deathwatch?
Brayden Clark
But its a setting
Lincoln Mitchell
How many and what types?
Easton King
I am doing a paint and play and we are moving on to 1500 from 1k. Here is my current list:
993
weirdboy 62
boys x30 choppas big choppa 189
stormboys x30 big choppa 249 stormboys x15 big choppa 129
gorkanaut 364
My plan was boost the small stormboy squad to 30 add a big mek on bike with KFF, add another 30 man boys squad with big choppa and a smaller squad with big choppa to fill the rest.
So at 1500:
1499
weirdboy 62 big mek on bike kff big choppa 110
boys x30 choppas big choppa 189 boys x30 choppas big choppa 189 boys x13 choppas big choppa 87
stormboys x30 big choppa 249 stormboys x30 big choppa 249
gorkanaut 364
That look like a good add on to my 1k list? It also takes me from a patrol to a battalion for 3 command points. Thinking 1 boys squad should be shootas maybe. Lets them shoot 1 unit then charge another. Means they still do something even if charge fails.
Jeremiah Thompson
Does the keyword let you ignore vertical distance?
Jackson Wright
For real this time, I finished Love and Krieg. Pretty good
Angel Brooks
Does anybody here have the website of all the tourney lists that 8th have had so far? It was posted a few days ago.
Luis Moore
Dont think so, only lets you do the fall back thing
Jace Torres
OP here, before anyone asks or whatever, source for Reiver thing is:

Fall of Cadia and Dark Imperium: Chaos can open a rift that cuts the galaxy in half an innumerable smaller rifts, gaining the ability to drop daemons all over an already beleaguered, on the brink of collapse imperium and everthing is fine.
Adrian Adams
No, my friend doesn't believe people did all flyer lists and he said that 'most armies and lists would beat it because objectives'.

My common senses are tingling, but we are supposed to play the game RaW. >A flying unit does in fact not have the mobillity of a man with a grappling hook.

>imagine bothering to play as ANY faction other than Chaos
Why are you even bothering?
Why play a game where the setting ending is decided for you? Are you a bunch of cucks?
Dominic Edwards
It does, FLY lets you ignore models and terrain while moving.
Tyler Murphy
You get outflank as well.
Owen Ramirez
Can someone help me clear up an issue I'm having with the rules. If I take a primaris Captain with my Deathwatch can he take wargear from the Deathwatch? Can he take the xenophase blade since he doesn't have a chainsword??
Henry Diaz
But not vertical distance
Brayden Young
Pretty sure the Primaris Captain has a set inventory that can't be changed.
Benjamin Williams
How are you getting vertical distance without terrain?
Nathan Sanders
I know you're being the obligatory assclown, but I too would like some concrete information to debunk "X faction is OP" and "Faction Y is garbage!" arguments. Tournament lists are pretty good for those. >I also want to know how the Necrons fare competitively.
Joshua Rodriguez
Why when I ignore the terrain that causes the vertical distance.
Colton Stewart
Do you have to keep the 15 stormboyz in the list?
If not, i would try:
Weirdboy 62 Warboss (2 killsaws, squig) 93
Boyz x30 (29 choppas, 1 big choppa) 189 Boyz x30 (29 choppas, 1 big choppa) 189 Boyz x30 (29 choppas, 1 big choppa) 189
Nobz x5 (4 power stabba, 1killsaw) 125
Stormboyz x30 (1 big choppa) 249
Gorkanaut 364
And bring the 15 stormboyz + 15 more at 2k points.
Jacob Jones
How the fuck are you supposed to store that in any case? Won't be safely transported in any slot foam or GWs channel foam.
Juan Wilson
Ignoring terrain means you don't have to move around impassible shit, it doesn't mean it takes zero movement to get to the top of a ruin.
Easton Martin
I think might be onto something here. Even if you end your move on top of terrain, you treat the terrain as "not there" while actually moving.
Alexander Cook
chop the rope off, attach the hook to the gun barrel.
Bentley Hernandez
The fabled abocron
Joseph Rivera
So I'm trying to see an advantage of the primaris over a normal Captain caked in Deathwatch kit. I'm feeling there isn't one.
Grayson Turner
I don't know the deathwatch stat line of the top of my head, how does it stack up next to a Primaris Captain?
Matthew Rogers
The way I've always read that is you get to ignore any effects terrain would have on you while moving. But if you want to move vertically, you still count the distance.
Ryan Hernandez
So...With a little green stuff I think I can actually make something like that. Wouldn't be that hard. And I'd get to keep his original pimp stick for Fabulous Bile conversion. Thoughts?
Jordan Ross

Henry Adams
There is a reason why reaper is a fun charicter: he looks fucking rad, even if he is edgy as fuck. Do it
Logan Campbell
What would be a good replacement for the Vindicator in this 1000 point list? Using the RG Chapter tactics for what its worth.
>Techmarine Hq with Combi Plasma and Servo Harness >Vet Squad x5 with Combi Flamers >Razorback with Twin Heavy Bolter and Storm Bolter >Venerable Dread with Assault Cannon, CCW and Storm Bolter >Vindicator with Storm Bolter >Devastators x 5 (x 2 Lascannon, 1 Missile Launcher, 1 Plasma Cannon) >Servitors x 5 (x 2 Heavy Bolters) >Thunderfile Cannon and Gunner
Points are going off the old index it it matters. I'm thinking a long ranged dread, maybe the Primaris one, or perhaps a Predator; something to hang out with the Techmarine Gunner in the back line to patch it up.
Ryder Gomez
If it ignores any effects, that would include the effect that vertical movement has. Remember that fly applies to jump packs and flyers now. Do you count vertical distance when moving a flyer? No. So why would you count it for another fly unit?
Henry Garcia
see
Isaiah Myers
I mean you could I guess, but it doesn't make much sense to me that a flyer would have to count the distance going up and down a building.
Jacob Campbell
If that interpretation were correct you couldn't end your movement on top of some terrain piece because it wouldn't be there to end your movement on top of.
Leo Harris
Sounds like we need an FAQ
i would point out that not all terran is classified as terran, eg a cliff has no data sheet, so isnt terran, but still has verticla distance
Alexander Wilson
Have the rulebook ever stated what "ignoring terrain" entails or are we working purely off of speculations as usual?
Nicholas Stewart
Just seems like common sense to me.
Julian Collins
>Using evidence >Not baseing your posts on wild speculation pff, what a newfag
Michael Hernandez
Are we batman now?
William Wright
I mean for casual play, sure, but what about torniments, where Common Sence has no place?
Lucas Sanchez
>torniments Ewwwwwwwwwww
James Myers
Vindicator's got a pretty signficant cost decrease, but dreads would also take advantage of the -1 to hit of your "sneaky beaky assault marine" chapter you've clearly built your list around.
Isaiah Martinez
As a flying vehicle; for example a flying brick. I'd say it makes sense to be able to end you movement over the ruined building/cliff/house/ocean while not actually taking into account it's height as you feasibly are already at a higher altitude. But as states; we gonna need an FAQ on this.
Owen Davis
That's up to TO's.
Landon Cook
Do we have warlord traits?
Are there any stratagems that work really well for or are specific to dreads?
Juan Evans
Necrons actually have a unused character that is fit for a Primaris Equivalent. >The Silent King >The "Creator" of the Necrons.
Jeremiah Morgan
it snaps
Jose Rogers
Imagine if GW was still pushing that Finecast garbage today and they made the Reiver kit out of resin. Just imagine.
James Russell
I'm just finding the Vindicator underwhelming, even with a points drop. Dreads getting the -1 is really tempting though. I could also fit in a Storm Hawk for fluff reasons if I juggled a couple of wargear choices, though I'm not sure that's really worth it for a 1000 point list.
Ayden Hill
That's not storing it as modeled though. It voids the point of the problem with their design choice and the designer's intentions of how people are going to bring the model to their game.
Jason Baker
Magnetise the arm maybe.
David Gray
>No more Looted Wagons >No More Grukk the Face Rippa >No more 'Ard Boyz >No more tellyportas >No more Warpheads for two Psychic Powers a turn >No more power vomit >No more Green Tide as one unit >Ghazghkull looks puny now, even when compared to Grukk >No more Burna on Big Meks >Still no option to give a Warboss a Rokkit Pack >No more Brutal But Kunnin' >No more Kunnin' but Brutal >Still somewhat mourning the loss of Zogwort and Wazdakka Gutsmek

My entire subfaction (D-99) disappeared, and I lost the only named characters. Now I play vanilla Elysians >Inquisitor Solomon Lok Now part of >Major Durra Squatted
Tau: Lost deep striking broadsides, was fun having missile fists deep strike, also while it's not a loss, skyrays are one of the worst units (maybe THE worst one) in the game, which makes me sad
Silent king is handsome and his form looks like a metal person (like the C'tan) as opposed to the skeletal look of the rest of the Necrons. This was as described by a Blood Angel comparing his beauty to Sanguinius.
But I can't fucking find the source... It was a recent book I believe.

What No More Grukk? Oh For Fucks Sake How Much More Before Slaanesh Becomes Green Form The Amount Of Arse Fucking Orks Receive

William Gutierrez
Yes, the orks got suck and cucked quite a lot this edition
Daniel Stewart
Hey we saw a lot of big buffs, just lost a lot of content too. We'll see what the codex brings. In 2019.
Xavier Thomas
I mean, I didn't like Grukk all that much, but from the way they were pushing him as a character, and from how tough he was in the fluff I did read of him, and how he allegedly died and then returned, I'm a little surprised at his disappearance. I really liked his power klaw that shredded and his Feel No Pain.

Does anyone miss the Character challenges from last edition? I don't quite see how it could be adapted this edition with the changes to how characters work but dang it I do miss the Nob vs Champion battles, and the HQ on HQ battles.

Wanna play my nurglings? I shit on 32mm bases. Dont worry bruh, theyre clear coated
Henry Roberts
" deep strike makes running Deathwing Knights difficult without a transport You what? You can setup 9" away from an enemy unit and charge it out of deepstrike, where you only need to roll 8" on 2D6 which is only 1 over the average.
Sebastian Reed
Mephiston lost the ability to fly when it's been a staple for him for years. He's also lost Fleet it seems or equiv movement buff. Granted he's S10 default, but that's still shit.
Cawl is now Mars only.
Sautekh is the best dynasty due to having 5 or so named characters for it only.
Longstrike cannot go in Forge World Hammerhead units
Chronus cannot go in Terminus Ultra. Neither can Calgar.
Lost all the Imperial Guard named characters from IA1. We lost the generic Tank Commanders. I don't want Pask to be the best best guy ever best. I want a Superheavy Tank Commander, named or generic.
Sniper Drones are shit now, can no longer shoot 3 times per turn at 24".
Flash Gitz are shit and don't have a specific clan.
Jayden Hughes
Yeah, sure why not? Just krump them like the rest. I do like the model though.
Friend on my team faced that. Had three knights plus some DA flyers. He lost.
Nathan Reed
Fact is there is so much flyer spam is disgusting. Girlyman + 5 Stormravens is insanity.
William Ross
You'll find a way t. Tyranid player
Chase Cruz
What use is a grappling hook fired at that angle?
William Russell
Just ask your opponent for a cinematic showdown rule or some shit if you really want to. The game is so rules light there's room for it, just say that if a character can complete a heroic intervention and there is a character in the melee within four inches of the end of it's move it can swap places with another model
Easton Powell
To cross rooftops or to swing from a rooftop to street level using a street light or a store sign or some shit
