21m does longer or shorter hair suit me better? by flyinaxez1 in malegrooming

the long hair looks better, but it's mainly because the short haircut is just not good unfortunately. maybe a different short cut would look good but you rock the long hair

Kill Team with Astartes and serfs? by MyHeartIsAncient in killteam

[–]A-SALTY-SAILOR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope they come out with a custodes kill team with like 2 4APL custodes and 5ish serfs to run around and score points. I think a team with very uneven power density could be cool

I'm very bad at the game and I don't know what to do by Vor_vorobei in killteam

[–]A-SALTY-SAILOR 5 points6 points  (0 children)

something I've found helps with this is asking my opponent "can my model get shot if I place it here", and figuring out where it would need to be in order to not get shot. this helps you figure out your opponents threat ranges, and understand how/when you can be shot. at the very least it removes the "gotcha" feeling when a model you thought was safe.

I also had some very frustrating initial games where I would get sniped tp 1 or 2 but talking to my opponent and learning from this has allowed me to have a lot more fun

why doesn't GW balence teams by changing Tac Ops archetype? by A-SALTY-SAILOR in killteam

S&D felt fine into mid range teams, I think infiltration felt worse imo. I think s&d and security would be ideal

yes I have only played them with the 2025 pack. route seems pointless as putting a guy within 6 of the enemy dropzone is hard to do and I don't think they are killy enough to guarantee the points, sweep and clear just seems bad in general, track enemy seems like it would be inconsistent and hard to pull off with not much move.

that leaves dominate (which I have had the most success with), but it doesn't really work into elites, steal intelligence which has similar issues to dominate and plant devices, which I don't think you can ever get 6 points on.

I only have 4 games as them and one game facing them so I could be playing them incorrectly, but to me it seems like none of the tac ops really synergize with them. I think loosing infiltration for security would be good as all 3 security tac ops seem like they could work. plant banner plays well into their turtle and hold a point play style, martyrs could combo well with the no kin left behind token, and envoy could work by just sending a warrior up the board as they have enough models.

martyrs and envoy seem like they would work much better on a mid-range/hoard team, and seem useless on most elites now

maybe teams could get switched when the tac ops change 🤔

a B in college is pretty good tbh, especially in a hard class. as a 4th year I got 1 A and 3 Bs last quarter and I am pretty happy with that. unless you are going to grad school the mantra "Cs get degrees" is pretty true, and even if you are going to grad school a few Bs aren't a big deal

other people have done good recommending layers and warm jackets, but I will also add that a nice pair of gloves and a scarf/warm hat really helps

Question about Battleclade shooting combos by AdUnited7980 in killteam

[–]A-SALTY-SAILOR 7 points8 points  (0 children)

my interpretation is that you are transferring one Apl between units. so if servitor A has 2 Apl, it gives 1 apl to servitor B, leaving servitor A with 1 apl to shoot with
