>The Invasion of Black Reef: At an unknown date during this period, the aggressive, expansionist xenos race known as the Tau begin wide-scale colonisation and invasion operations in the Black Reef region of the Coreward portion of the Jericho Reach. Shielded from immediate detection by the warp storms and stellar phenomenon of the region, the Tau fl eets quickly gain an entrenched foothold on several worlds, and enslave many human populated worlds. Eh, nothing personal humans. Now go to gulag.

Looking for some advice on how to run a horde army faster. I am playing orks in an upcoming tournament, and will have 120+ models to manage and move. Aside from movement trays which have been disalowed, what tips might you offer to speed up my turn so I can go farther than turn 2 or 3 in 2 1/2 hours. I have heard having groups of 30 and 60 dice set aside for rolling is helpful. Any tips to speed up my game would be appreciated.

dice buckets, dice throwing tray (for ease of collection), different color dice to allow for all weapons in a unit to shoot (1 color per weapon type), think about your next moves during your opponents turn (don't just afk and roll for saves)

Planning on building a Chaos Daemons Slaanesh army. What are my anti heavy armor options if I don't like the soul grinder model ? I was thinking about an allied CSM spearhead detachment with Oblits just because the CSM Slaanesh stratagem, but Oblits don't really counter really heavy stuff like LRs or Knights.
Thoughts ?
Tyler Young
Predator.
David Watson
That's a good edit. Actually looks cool. We need more daemons wearing clothes.
Brayden Ramirez
For 135 points you get 9 of this annoying fuckers. 2D3 attacks each 3D3 with the mandatory priest. 27D3 attack with BS3+ and Re-roll to hit. Also 5++ and 2 Wounds.
All nice and cool but Fucking hate rolling 27D3 just to determine how many dice I need to roll for even hitting.
This D3 and D6 mechanics are fucking cancer. They just slow down the game and add nothing
Bentley Walker
3 predators or 10 combi-plas terminators, take your pick.
Brody Flores
Well yhea of course, cant go wrong with laspreds, but I wanted something more on theme with a mainly CC army. Decimators maybe ?
Sebastian Phillips

Obliterators can work pretty well, but their random nature makes them unreliable.
Slaaneshi Lascannon Havocs, with VotLW and Endless Cacophony are amazing against heavy stuff. Otherwise, you can use a Plasma Chosen Squad with the same stratagems.
Your Daemon solutions, other the SG, are mostly the Smites, but don't underestimate the simple Daemonettes. They wound anything heavy on 6+, but when they wound is -4AP.
Fiends can tarpit Land Raiders and alike forever.
Brandon Harris
What might I add to bulk up the numbers and additional weight of fire in a Custodes army? A detachment of IG? of Scions? of Spesss Mereeen scouts? Assbacks?

Gavin Taylor
Early stages of my Genestealers, planning on fielding 16 of these buggers in a big mob.
Ayden Fisher
But that's only allowed when specifically demanded in a unit's rules
Jordan James
Are kataphron worth picking up? they look really coo.
Aaron Hall
Yhea, I think I will do a combination of Havocs and Oblits.
Speaking of fiends, any good alternative to the current model ? I know they will be updated eventually but don't feel like waiting a year or more for it. Their mechanic is so good
Josiah Brooks
>cheating Each model has 2D3 or 3D3 attacks. Unless otherwise stated you need to roll for each model.
Camden Hughes
Poke 2 holes in each base tie together 5 boys at a time by running knotted string through the bases. Keep 4 boys in each squad untied so they can work as change. When the enemy kills, say, 17 boys, you remove 4 'strings' of troops and add 3 boys back in. To move, just pull the lead boy forward and he'll drag the other 4 behind him. You'll still have to grab them up if they perch on terrain, though.
Isaiah Green
Proxy for a Zoan if I recall.
Anthony Brooks
So what will this guys do? My guess is poleaxe will spill damage like the DA/DG flails and some sort of aura, perhaps a bodyguard ability to soak damage for other units.
Alexander Green
We don't know yet, obviously, but hopefully they'll at least be fun to use. Maybe they'll simply help out with hordes of Tzaangors? >wanting bird lewds OUT
Brandon Reed

Mason Scott
Birbs aren't actually bad for their cost, they just suffer from a lack of support. They could be fine as-is if other stuff in the codex has synergies with them.
Brody Adams
The axe so far seems to just trade some AP for extra strenght I kinda expect the damage spilling to be a stratagem desu
Robert Williams
Drukhari player here - I need tips for how to kill tactical marines in cover.
I have plenty of weaponry for fucking up vehicles but it's really hard to dig out tacticals with splinter weaponry.
Should I just send in the murder birbs?
Easton Taylor
They are women. Being weak is their thing. Men do not need power armour. Women on the other hand, totally aceptable
Henry Sullivan
>poleaxe Isn’t that just a Guardian spear? Also, what are we thinking for axes? Plus 2-3 strength but only like AP-2?
Elijah Barnes
But what about no other guardsman managing Harker's feat either
Hunter Edwards
I wonder if the Custodes will be able to recycle CP.
Julian Reed
Modesty
William Parker
Left guy has an axe, you see them in other pictures as well. Used by both these guys and the Allarus guys. Its called something like a Castellan Axe or something
Henry Foster
Alternative models? Why would you renounce to these insanely expensive beauties?
Luis Roberts
did someone say "heresy"?
Brayden Reyes
Do any of you Vanilla Marines players get tempted by the more elite armies? Your guys were supposed to be elite already.
Camden Lewis
Pretty much everyone has gotten the "on a 5+, get your CP back" warlord trait, so I'd say yes
Lincoln Gutierrez
So far they only have Valoris' relic but there might be a warlord trait or another relic that does it, maybe they wont have much trouble filling a batallion now that they can take single model units.
Carter Morales
I'm a little disappointed they look like troops but the biggest change being the skirt Otherwise they look mostly the same. Would've been nicer if they had different guns or something like Saggitarum or Aquilons
Axe is S+3 AP-2 Dd3 So basically a Spear but trade 1 AP for +2 Str, point difference I don't know
Kevin Watson
I would say that marines ARE elite and that other armies are more specialized, since most other armies have either similar or worse stats than basic marines
Colton Cox
To be honest, Marines are fast approaching IG infantry status in my eyes
Logan Adams
Actually only Ultras have one that good, most others are get 1 CP back when you use a stratagem, so if you use a 2 CP strat you'll only get 1 back.
Ultras get to roll a 5+ on every CP spent.
Colton Perez
What the fuck do Orks (or any low BS army) do with the new rules for blast template weapons? SAGs, killkannons, supa kannons, lobbas, they all seem pretty shit now.
Jeremiah Morris
Compared to my Kabalite Tissue Armor, tacticals are elite.
We're really fucking hurting right now without stratagems and wargear.
Matthew Moore
What do you guys think of my alpha legion? Not shown are 30 renegade guard acting as cultists.
Colton Carter
Hows this for a starting Harlequin list, facing mostly infantry.
Why wouldn't they just include all that shit and put it in the codex?
Josiah Campbell
Do BA have much use for tacticals?
I really wanted to play mechanized infantry with flamers but all I see are msu scouts and elites.
Bentley Ward
Renegades and Heretics allies from Forge World gives you access to Hellhounds, Basilisks, and Leman Russes. Go nuts.

Fucking disgusting.
Easton Thompson
shit, wrong one, one troupe is missing a transport
Jaxson Scott
Soon, friend.
Carson Gomez
Ooooooh, I thought we were talking about center guy. My mistake. They mentioned it trades strength for AP, which means AP1/2 and Strenght 8 most likely. Which is nice, that combined with melta bikers and some dreadnoughts would be a pretty solid dedicated AT section. Bikers alone (provided they have 3A and not 4) do 10 wounds to a land raider and wipe anything cheaper, and on a W9/12 platform boasting T6 and 2+/4++, it’s a pretty sweet deal. Shame they’ll be like 300 points when a dev squad near bobbart does almost as much for half the cost
Joshua Reyes
Bretty good! 5/5!
Leo Walker
Can Horticulous Slimux create a Gnarlmaw the same turn he is summoned? I have been trying to figure this out all day. His rule only stipulates that it does not trigger if he summoned something that round, but other than that it goes off
Jackson Jackson
Nope, not choppy enough. Bring more scouts.
Hunter Bailey
Cause FW is never in the codices because reasons
Jonathan Thompson
Yes.

It's a Sector the Deathwatch is involved in. It's where the Deathwatch RPG takes place in too.
Carter Thomas
Take 4000000 boys and laugh at the new ate system. Orks are part of the problem.
Carson Bailey
That lore is old and not canon, despite being interesting. Deathwatch operates in multiple areas across the galaxy and all the FFG stuff is defunct anyways
Carson Wood
Jericho Reach got mentioned in the newer lore.
Zachary Roberts
round = turn so no
Kayden Long
Doesn't matter. Anything from FFG isn't canon.
Which sucks because they wrote way better lore than the vast majority of BL
Logan Hall
the rule says he cannot summon someone but says nothing about him being summoned, so you may need to walk me through why you say no
