Until he runs into a bug with dual boneswords, or even worse runs into a Tyrant and Lash Whip equipped Guards.
Walkers have been in need of a rework for years. I haven't fielded a CSM dreadnought in years, even thought I have 3 of them. I have always hated the fact that the Eldar dreadnoughts are not...
Actually, having re-read Paroxysm I might have inadvertently cheated, oh well, I think I assumed that since it auto-hit that I could use it on units already locked in HtH. I still lost the game, it...
However, I could see the potential in a DoW setup for bypassing the reserve roll for the Mawloc entirely, just bring him on from your table edge on turn one and have him go subterranean as soon as...
Personally I like having the maxxed out Termagant squads on the table with two Tervigons to start things out. Throwing FNP on a 30 man group of Termagants actually makes them survive anti-infantry...
Jervis has stated that at some point a Chaos Legions book will be done, I'm not holding my breath though. I believe Chaos players are supposed to be thrilled by the fact that we got lash, which will...
Nids suffer from a lack off assault grenades, other than that, I'm relatively optimistic about the codex.
Totally forgot about Soul Devourer, good point, shows how much I know!:D
Bloodthirster - ~250 points, ~300 tricked out. Statline blows doors on the Carnifex (WS10, BS4, S8(9 charge), T6, A5, I5(6 charge), W4 or 5) as it probably should for nearly twice the cost. He's...
Wow, you think maybe Duke was messing with you guys and anticipating the hyperbolic response?
That's like wondering how you're going to beat up on the mob of cripples coming to get you. The new nid army sounds like that guy with the scimitar from Raiders of the Lost Ark that Indy just shoots...
Totally agree that they probably won't and should never be a shooty AT army, however, given their total inability to have a mecha aspect to them at all, they could have been developed into an AT army...
I was thinking of pre-ordering a few of the new models, but with everything I've been hearing, I'm just waiting to see if the Codex is any good.
GW has such a great opportunity here to create a...
Not to be a complete jerk (even though I am), but wouldn't that apply to herr Jervis and consequently his promises of not one, but two minor splinter faction within a faction codices as well?
Nids...
Something I think would be appropriate for Blood Angels and that I would love to see for World Eaters is open-topped Rhinos.
The troops and the vehicle itself would be a bit more vulnerable due to...
Rending in 5th edition is not worth 3 pts, it's barely worth 1 pt. If Rending significantly factors into the cost of a model I'm just not interested, it's really become one of the most garbage USRs...
Rogue Trader days. Sold my mint condition Batman: Death in the Family comics to buy both the Realms of Chaos books and enough figures to get my Chaos army rolling. Oh for the days of rolling...
I was fairly successful with footslogging CSM squads with the icon of Nurgle and double meltaguns...until I would run into another Lash player, then it sucked bad.
Hopefully Tyranids will live up...
Lash Sorcerer - super basic 125 points, no point in doing anything else in my experience, at least in this edition.
Then again I'm rather cynical about the depth and breadth of strategies...
Comp and Sportsmanship are both jokes as far as I'm concerned. At least in tournaments, you could be the nicest guy in the world and if you win all your games I can almost guarantee you got a crappy...
To be honest, my favorite army list to date in any edition was my 4th edition Iron Warriors list, it was simple, involved no special characters whatsoever. I used to refer to the leader of my Iron...
That's great, I have consistent quotes from Jervis about getting a Chaos Legions codex. Do I expect it next year, hell no, the year after, not really but maybe I'll get lucky, before the end of the...
1) Tyranids - oh wait, I'm getting that, yay!
2) Blood Angels - so one of my buddies that plays his BA models as "Red Templars" or "Red Wolves" will stop complaining about how badly they've been...
They could always give them the dream transport I've wanted for the World Eaters since 5th ed came out:
the open-topped Rhino!
QFT, this is part of the reason I play Nids and Chaos, not only because I like their fluff more than other armies, but because I know that they are popular enough to enjoy favored army status at GW.
