I've attended throne of skulls around 6 times over the last 3 years, I'm part of rebelgrot's group.

I've had good games and bad games, but generally it is a fun tournament at gw head office.

I...

ultimately, All PS does is change the order of things. it really does depend on how you play, who you play and what pilots you want to use.

moving before the enemy means you can block them,...

Well it makes wedge much better, and just means that the others are ps2 instead of ps4. If you fight a tie swarm that is majority ps1 with howl who is ps8 it makes no difference, for example.

And...

if you lower the pilots on the 2 x and b to the cheapest ones, you can put ptl and r2d2 on wedge :D

I bought a ticket to the March throne of skulls before they announced escalation. I play chaos, and Don't like the lord of battle (only way I'd buy it would be if I had a great conversion planned,...

Er, not quite. It hasn't been said that non escalation book lords of war are allowed. so until WW say they are, we can't take them.

From the code of battle.

If the event you are attending is...

I wont be bringing one. As I'll be taking either Chaos or daemons and hate the lord of battle.

Guess I need to pack more melta... and at least if my opponent brings a revenant I'll have more time...

So strictly speaking, the only daemon that could join from the chaos marine dex is a daemon prince, which cant join squads because its a single MC... Pretty sure it worked like this, yay go mad for...

exactly, if it fits the feel of 40k then it should be fine. Pony marines might be an issue, but I remember someone using werewolves as thunder wolves, and that feels ok to me. Also one of my...

I was there as well, got very drunk saturday night and counted my first game as a draw instead of a win (I killed his warlord in a kill point game and only counted it as 1vp). I was joint third out...

The lambda and b wing both have agility 1, which balances things out. Of course, the best way to avoid incoming fire is to not be in their fire arc. I'm yet to use a falcon but I've played against...

An idea I've been considering is to bring along Huron for his master of deception trait, and infiltrate d3 plague marine squads (or outflank, but I do use Rhino's normally).

You could kill vehicles via glancing back in 5th, just wasn't as sure fire as it is in 6th (or as easy as it was in 4th).

Pesonally, I like hull points, however as mentioned above what works for...

maybe mount the liquifier somewhere else, and replace it with a claw or something.

The B&C forum is down, awaiting repairs. No eta as of yet, join their facebook page for updates.

Nothing effects snap firing at flyers (unless specified like with marker lights).

So if your drones are bs2, or bs5 from the commander it doesn't matter, as they will be snap firing at the flyer....

OP is using chaos, so I don't think grey knights are an option.

The larger the unit, the larger the foot print, You could always try using terrain and other units to protect what you would expect...

I would say no, as generally while falling back you cannot move except to fall back, however I don't have the rulebook at the moment so can't back it up :(

I have 3, and they are old, bought originally when they were the standard. My friends have no problem with me using them and I've attended a tournament with them to no issue. I also have 3 of the...

But they still get FNP against meltas, lascannons and plasma, which is nice :D

I think they can work in MSU, but I'd prefer to keep them 7 man, have run them at 7 since the 3.5 codex :D

Most WAAC army I played was an epidemius list with ork allies, and when I say ork allies I mean a naked big mek and grots.

Deployed at the back, behind an aegis, first turn Epi drops down and...

Also depends on your opponent, the mission, terrain... But yeah I'd say the one with the cultists, as the biker lord would probably be off killing things :D

I've tried out 2 drakes, 1 with a baleflamer and 1 with a hades, even though I never ever thought I would go for the hades on a drake.

With the drake having a 360 turret mount, you can zoom over a...

For my nurgle lord in terminator armour I went for power axe and black mace, although I am in the process of making a second nurgle lord in terminator armour with a chainfist and lightning claw :D
...

I disagree here (though I did think that was what it was getting at) however in the section of the rulebook regarding psychic powers, it specifies that you cant cast blessings the turn you move on...
