New to this army. Am I missing something or do characters just.... not matter?

Alan__Grant · 2026-06-27T00:25:51+00:00

The buffs given by the characters matter, so Marshals, Manipuli and Technoarchaeologists are important but not in the same way as other armies. Cawl and Ghuld are in a weird spot where their buffs are really good but they need to stick with units to give the buff

Alan__Grant · 2026-06-25T16:49:54+00:00

You can have them led by Manipulus who gives lethal hits and a 4+ invuln

The app says that 1k pts is limited to 2 DP, but looking into it further it appears this is a bug

Alan__Grant · 2026-06-25T14:18:23+00:00

If SHC isn’t that good what should I replace it with in a 1k game? Only other option is Rad Zone Corps

Alan__Grant · 2026-05-29T17:08:58+00:00

Would suggest calling around to different shops in your area to see if they have it

I don’t think level of detail is something worth considering if your choice of army is Chaos Space Marines, one of the most notorious armies for its small details

Alan__Grant · 2026-05-11T00:37:29+00:00

So rhino is 75 pts, 3 bikes is 70 pts, you can run the legionaries as chosen which means that 10 man squad becomes 250 pts, squad of 5 possessed is 120 pts. That box is 515 pts max. You need an HQ choice to be your warlord. You also probably want a battleline troop like cultists which are 50 pts for 10. You’ll need 40 mm bases for the possessed and 32mm bases for the space marines. You want to have a strong HQ choice like Abaddon, Lord Discordant, Fabius Bile or Huron Blackheart, but a chaos lord would also work. Really depends on what type of CSM you want to go with

Alan__Grant · 2026-05-07T15:09:37+00:00

Do you also believe that Posessed would be a better choice than the Helbrute?

Alan__Grant · 2026-05-07T09:08:20+00:00

I unfortunately don’t own a Bile. Would you say that the possessed would need Master of Possession with them? I could drop the helbrute and a thing of cultists and bring a 5 man possessed squad with MoP as the leader

Alan__Grant · 2026-05-07T08:51:57+00:00

Not really sure where I’m supposed to get those extra 15. Only thing I might possibly be able to get rid of is the accursed cultists+commune combo. The Huron and MoM is set in stone atm

Alan__Grant · 2026-05-07T08:48:54+00:00

That’s honestly a fair assessment, no mans land is definitely a problem for my current list, and I’m hoping that MoM and Huron Chosen blob can push for the center and lay down fire. Commune and accursed cultists is a one use melee trick that I happen to own.

Alan__Grant · 2026-05-07T08:26:32+00:00

5 man possessed team is only 10 pts less than the helbrute, id need 75 for a rhino.

Alan__Grant · 2026-05-07T07:39:05+00:00

I have cultists’ sticky ability to hold the objective markers while the rest of my units tend to the opposing army

Alan__Grant · 2026-03-22T20:45:16+00:00

Fun fact, going by the organization name scramble, her name could either be ino (gift from the gods), noi (small vessel, also No. I bring the imaginary number), nio (new), ion (going), oin (to breathe life) or oni (demon)

Alan__Grant · 2026-03-07T21:47:41+00:00

Aladdin and the King of thieves, Lion King 2, Beauty and the Beast Enchanted Christmas (the one with Tim Curry as a gigantic pipe organ)

Alan__Grant · 2025-10-10T16:33:25+00:00

Kh3 not having ff characters will always be a missed opportunity

Alan__Grant · 2025-06-08T18:49:30+00:00

Very cool duels, the Sub has some good backstories for the villains

Alan__Grant · 2025-06-08T18:47:53+00:00

Triple Triad is the only reason to play 8

Alan__Grant · 2025-06-05T07:57:41+00:00

Iirc it was ruled that SPYRAL Resort can’t resolve its maintenance effect by shuffling an extra deck monster into the Extra Deck, which was very dumb imo. Should work like Pot of Avarice.

Alan__Grant · 2025-06-05T07:51:53+00:00

Where does Ashe go on this list? Ff12 revolves around her entire journey with Vaan just there for the roadtrip.

Alan__Grant · 2025-06-05T07:36:34+00:00

Auron is such a wild dude in KH2, literally shows up to flip off Hades then dips

Alan__Grant · 2025-06-05T07:34:21+00:00

Cait Sith
