Avenger is a template, so not for that. Smite is shots, so yes.
Thanks for the discussion thus far. I was being pilloried for it by the guy who lost his captain as if I had made it all up. Crazy.
I posted the Adepticon INAT addendum to our store's site for...
Ah, but that is the rub.
I guess the guys who brought this up were thinking - If "at the start of combat" means at the start of dice rolling, and not at the start of the assault phase of that...
This list needs a bit of work. You have some good units, but in a decent round of games you may have some problems.
Kantor's inspiring benefit only works out to a certain distance, and your army...
An interesting discussion came up, that offers a bit of finesse to the combined assault rules, RAW or RAI?
I've been playing 40K for a while, and until about a month ago, regardless of being the...
We so far use what we have to proxy the chapters. The renegades have locked themsleves into their chapters and rolls, playing with alot of ownership over their veteran skills they earn. Us...
I'm curious...I have not seen anybody posting Badab Campaign stuff here recently. Well...we have continued ours! Thanks BOLS for the great campaign book. Wednesday begins the second half.
See...
Double librarian lists with gate....
More boyz. Kans with clawz, lots of them. Ghazghul.
Spend points for the havoc launchers. Keep your guys in the rhinos till they need to get out and do their thing. STAY concentrated on one flank or center, not spread out. Keep the drones in...
My fault is trying to always play with the units I have, not the units I should have. After all, 40K is an arms race. I have more ways to maximize the use of the tools I have, but sometimes I push...
I have a 10-man, PF, 2xPC, 1xcombimelta or combiflamer squad. I split off the PCs together if I combat squad them.
I typically use the classic 10-man, las-plas, PF kit. I am looking at the merits of mm-mg-pw-mb squads though. The MBs are just a hopeful addition if I get assaulted by a dread or Kan and need that...
We played a game recently with Vanguard kitted with jump packs and every one with a power weapon. They ate first a sternguard squad, then a tactical squad, then almost another tactical squad. You...
Trade the chaplain for a librarian with Null and smite...
Kans....Kans....a single kan is better than a terminator. A squadron of three kans will take down a squad of 5 terminators. And their armor is 12-11-10...
Hmmmm. Just simply...put in WD a list of additional characters...One makes assault squads troops. One makes devs scoring. Look at all the cool Badab War units and characters. How hard would it be...
Any army is not competitive if you use it wrong. Period. Using it wrong includes not owning the right tools.
A player who studies, understands his tools, practises, and learns, can win with...
I agree. I have seen a lot of DA players walk from their codex. It is crazy! You can do stuff nobody else can! You have your own flavor, special rules, and character nobody else has! Maybe I...
As an Ultramarine afficionado:
Calgar for terminator and sternguard/vanguard megabuilds. 2000 points and higher.
Sicarius for 2nd Co. builds, players who split their army between assault and...
I use Pedro as the center of ALL my Ultramarine 3rd Co. Builds (see my blog at B&C).
Pedro is a force multiplier, pure and simple. It is not so much what he does in combat that is important, it...
Wow! That was Tauriffic! Good luck at Tacticon!
I typically grab the crashed McCragge shuttle terrain and use that, since it is roughly the same size and "wrecktangular".
An armored vehicle "explodes" is more steel and smoking hulk/debris...
In my games, I clearly let the opponent know what squad is in what transport. I often (for Rhinos) put two member of the squad on the roof. 1. It helps me remember to fire them; 2. It creates a...
