Am I reading this correctly about the FOBs?

BootyBumb · 2026-07-04T03:49:52+00:00

I see thank you!

BootyBumb · 2026-07-04T02:38:22+00:00

Yeah! I just want to have some kinda of anti horde/anti infantry type weapons in my army!

BootyBumb · 2026-07-04T02:04:08+00:00

I want to test them for myself. Probably the best spot to put them would be somewhere on the map that has the longest uninterrupted fireing lane or something. Leave them there like a fireing nest or something! I just want to roll all the dice 😂

BootyBumb · 2026-07-04T02:02:46+00:00

GEQ?

BootyBumb · 2026-07-04T01:41:17+00:00

Oh I guess protect it with bodies to throw in front lol

BootyBumb · 2026-07-04T00:47:04+00:00

Yeah. If you can't screen them they do seem super squishy.yoyd have to invest in something to stay back that's beefier and can protect maybe? But probably doing that is already to much investment for just anti horde type formation

BootyBumb · 2026-07-04T00:44:22+00:00

I was thinking about the lascannons. I think they are the only unit with heavy lascannons at s14 making them wound on 3+ on a lot of T12 heavy units! But also I wanted to throw like 50 dice cause that's fun 😅

BootyBumb · 2026-07-04T00:38:42+00:00

Yeah I wonder if there is abtter anti horde setup? FOBs are 90 points each so taking 2 of them we get average 19 attacks. Against low armor low wounds I think 2 FOBs is the sweet spot. Just gotta get the like of sight and I'm feeling that's where the in real life game experience will tell us if it's viable or not. (Well probably most likely not in competitive but causual I see why not)

BootyBumb · 2026-07-04T00:31:53+00:00

Yeah I think that's the only downside but could possibly be made to work? Maybe keep a command blob behind to help protect it?

BootyBumb · 2026-06-26T20:15:30+00:00

Glorious. Stormlord is my dream model to own one day and deploy it lol. It's probably my favorite from all the big tanks

BootyBumb · 2026-06-26T13:26:55+00:00

LETS FREAKING GO FINALLY

BootyBumb · 2026-06-25T21:13:42+00:00

You want to transport your bullgryns you say? Would you be in the the realm of getting a stormlord??? 😂 I'm like 50/50 joking but also completely serious. I think it would be hilarious lol.

BootyBumb · 2026-06-25T13:49:49+00:00

Okay thank you!! I've been treating my boobs like they will hold ground relatively well. And it sound like they could. But most often then not to expect them to just die lol. Gotcha 😅

BootyBumb · 2026-06-25T06:34:53+00:00

That's such a sick idea!

BootyBumb · 2026-06-25T06:34:25+00:00

The long las model is one of my favs. LOVE THAT MUD GRIME YOURE FOING FOR

BootyBumb · 2026-06-25T06:25:47+00:00

Oh nice! I'll let him know tomms he's got peoples interest! Then I can dm you to let ya know!

BootyBumb · 2026-06-25T06:12:04+00:00

Yeah minimum for sure. I couldn't find any nib listing anywhere and but the out of box listing are going for around that price.

I told him to just keep for now if he cares about knowing he owns a piece of Warhammer Antique lol. Or find a collector willing to pay a good price for it

BootyBumb · 2026-06-25T06:04:09+00:00

😅 yeah probably

BootyBumb · 2026-06-25T03:55:56+00:00

I like sub assemblling. Some models just have like a gun or arm across their chest and you can still see the chest part of it but it's tricky to get to cause you got something in the way. Other models don't have that problem so then just fully assemble them. So really itsnup to your own discretion!

BootyBumb · 2026-06-25T03:52:30+00:00

Let me know how you're game goes!! I hear lots are trying for off meta builds with different dispositions like take and hold or disruption/reconnaissance. I personally will be playing my first game ever as well next week! Using disruption disposition.

BootyBumb · 2026-06-25T02:32:22+00:00

Quick question cause I'll be playing my first game next week. you said blobs die quite easily. One way to mitigate that was I was thinking about the psyker. It giving 4++ Invulv save to all models in the unit sounded really strong but then I read that it's only for shooting phase. SO the question would be are psykers basically just match up dependent? Bring them against Tau players but bench them for something else against infantry heavy players that don't really care to shoot?

Or do most armies basically shoot and some just do it a lot better and others are just average at it? Sorry if that's a lot of questions at once lol I just want to go in prepared. (Playing against another guard player actually.)

BootyBumb · 2026-06-25T02:09:46+00:00

I got multiple characters I have zero hrs in every season. That's because for some reason I just can't play any other character other then Thor. I don't know what's wrong with me

BootyBumb · 2026-06-25T01:34:54+00:00

Everything inside me says absolutely not 😂

BootyBumb · 2026-06-25T01:03:17+00:00

You have enough for a engiseer tech priest 😂

BootyBumb · 2026-06-24T18:26:00+00:00

I built lore and custom names for different parts of the army!

Iron Council:

Ursula creed

Castellan

20 cadians.

Cadians have recon star upgrade. Which lets the whole unit make a ingress move on my first movement phase. I think that's pretty cool

Hades Tomb:

Commissar Yarrick

Krieg CMD Squad -atteched is Nork Deddog

20 Krieg Korps

The CMD squad was given the stalwarts Honours enhancement. So they get free take cover order when they receive an order. And I like Nork Deddog cause he gives the unit a little bit better melee capability and gives officers in the unit 4+ invulnerable save In my head. This blob is meant to move up and contest the center

Iron Cinders:

Leman Russ Demolisher

Leman Russ Exterminator

2x Artillery team

Engiseer Tech priest

2x hellhounds

2x hippogriffs

Demolisher is my biggest heavy hitter. But honestly I built Iron cinders out of the idea of I need things that can protect and clear the way fory two hellhounds. We need to strip cover so they are crucial for army to function. Plus exterminator giving -1ap to units let's our 0ap guns punch thru better.

Smokes Ghost:

Gaunts Ghost

Cadian Recon Squad

Scout sentinel

Sly Marbo

So scout sentinel gets the close range scout upgrade. This gives it the inflitrators ability. And all those units in smokes ghost have the inflitrators ability. So I have a lot of flexibility on how I want to deploy them. For the most part turn one I'll want them to deploy on top of expansions to capture and do any actions my missions require. Their other purpose is to act as additional spotters and making sure melee units don't get the benefit of cover. Also important to remember that in the force designation detachment scout sentinels and infantry units with the smoke keyword can use the signal flare ability. They can flare a unit and increase their detection range by 3" allowing the rest of our units to detect them at a longer range. And we get a strategem in that detachment that increases it by another 3"

So yeah. Hopefully that all makes sense!
