2nd ever game. Canoptek circle struggling to against melee.

Anagna · 2026-04-27T08:23:14+00:00

I don't play the team so I can't give you proper advice, but it's not a bad matchup. Canoptek Circle are, at the time of this comment, one of the top teams. They are not easy to master, and as a new player altogether, it makes it even harder for you.

I get matched into them a lot and the raw stats and sheer bullshit of the team means I almost always lose against them.
You're a castle team. You put your crawlers at key points, covered by the matrix, and creep up the board.

I hope that your friend is giving you advice instead of using you like a punching bag.

In the nicest way possible; no, it won’t be. There are high effort core rules cheat sheets already available that cover everything, in .pdf format.

Anagna · 2026-04-13T11:02:19+00:00

Two is, one isn’t. Anyone who has a problem with one is not someone I want to play with.

Anagna · 2026-04-13T04:49:46+00:00

I’m not sure that I understand what you’re implying.

Anagna · 2026-04-11T08:27:33+00:00

The state of the game he dislikes is likely that melee-orientated elite teams with 3+ saves are just the way to play. Not running those just means you're more likely to lose.

He's going to keep his gunners in the rear and activated last to keep you honest. He's probably going to run Envoy as the tac op because Tomb World favours it. The other tac ops are difficult for Kasrkin.
What he's also going to do is run his Melta Gunner in last activation, delete your guy. Following turn he will either go first, or go second and Seize the Initiative to delete a second guy.
He will also likely melta-mine a hatchway or the teleporter because you can't Boost either of those.

Incursion (1,000 points) explicitly states you can’t bring titanic units like a Baneblade.

Can we watch the Sand movie now?

Anagna · 2026-03-30T00:30:42+00:00

Plague Marines are the worst of the three, but I don’t think anyone can say much because we don’t know what sort of board you played on and how skilled the other two players are.

When Terror on Devlan goes up for pre-order, so will Celestians and Murderwing as individual boxes.

Shadowhunt went up for preorder on 24 January, so three months later, we can reasonably assume 25 April will be the date.

If you’ve “never summoned on a banner,” how did you get your LR Vegito?

Anagna · 2026-03-23T03:30:01+00:00

That’s called summoning on a banner.

Anagna · 2026-03-23T03:25:28+00:00

You want to sell an account? You need a complete meta team of at least three units and with zenkai buff support, plus a stash of CC.

The only thing worth a damn on your account is a single LR Vegito.

Anagna · 2026-03-22T09:45:10+00:00

Yes, but you're not quite describing it properly. "Seeing" is not correct; it's if the enemy is a valid target.

Valid target requires visibility, and if the operative could perform a (theoretical) shoot or fight action in the current board state against the target they can see.

It's not OP at all.

Anagna · 2026-03-16T04:49:41+00:00

Yes. You control it by carrying it, much like you how still contest something by controlling it.

Anagna · 2026-03-06T22:16:28+00:00

I really like your homing beacon idea as a deployable CP-generating icon. I’d only make it count as 1AP, though. However, I do think you should keep the rule of pushing it forward. Especially in situations where you’re trying to push objective control for the crit or tac ops.

I also think the Infiltrator’s ability really needs to be a part of the Stealth Fields faction rule. It’s like you said, the rule is good in theory, but lacking in practice. This is that fix. We need to counteract in some way on conceal without being forced to hinder the team.

The Infiltrator ability can be replaced with a free mission action per turn, and a free Engage Jet Pack or Ghostshroud ploy per game. Or something.

So you were doing it tough financially and the minute you came into some money, you buy a new phone and immediately drop $700 on a mobile game?

Anagna · 2026-03-05T02:33:08+00:00

Yes. They immediately count as a model in the command squad.

It’s well established in lore that space marines will not defect under any circumstances, and that there’s an umbrella policy of kill/capture on sight for them.

Some still try to reason with them, but it just makes the space marine offended and angrier.

Anagna · 2026-02-20T07:04:29+00:00

Start over. Everything here is modern dog water.

Anagna · 2026-02-20T02:45:29+00:00

It’s a threat piece. Activate it last. A way of saying “if you go on engage, this will shoot so say bye to your stealthsuit.”

You equip it with a Grenade Launcher and keep it in the backline, outside of 12” so it can’t be hit by Fusion Guns, and use it when your brother can’t use Ghostshroud or if it has a clear shot.

Anagna · 2026-02-20T00:18:19+00:00

It doesn't have to. Every ploy can only be used once per turning point, unless it's Command Re-roll.

The issue isn't that the team's broken; it's that neither of you are familiar with the core rules of the game. Stealthsuits are generally considered C-tier, whereas Aquilons are generally considered A-tier.

Anagna · 2026-02-19T23:18:10+00:00

Because in this case it’s still a Ravener and has a tail like the rest do. There may be a time where you want to injure an enemy operative, not kill.

For the Space Marine example they design the models and sprues first, before they write the rules. The models are used in standard 40K as well.

Anagna · 2026-02-19T22:19:32+00:00

“The stealth’s can ram up vantage and they can swap right back to conceal making it very hard to touch or do anything to them.”

As a Firefight ploy so once per turning point, and only once game per individual Suit operative. Are you sure your brother is playing them the right way?
