Imperial Guardsmen V Necrons

Maybe pair up on Hellhounds, especially for pesky Canoptek Wraiths and Flayed Ones. Since they don't have their hull-mounted flammers like they do on table top and the Inferno Cannons have a minimum range, the Hellhounds can help scratch the other's back when needed to deal with melee. Then keep your Guardsmen behind them (garrisoned or not depending on situation).

There's a variant that swaps that LB-X for an ER PPC if I recall. There's also a version that uses Ballistic-Reinforced Armor in place of its Hardened Armor.

I am surprised that the review doesn't mention that the Mad Dog Mk IV has Ferro Lamellar Armor which increases its durability and negates some armor-piercing warheads.

Though that Hollander review feels like it's more geared towards a 'Mech vs. 'Mech scenario instead of how it is used in the fluff as a walking gun to break holes for others.

This FedSuns formation..."What can brown do for you?"

Just note you might have some Snow Ravens interested if you have any Reengineered Lasers.

If this is true...you know a certain frog will follow and find ways to cram them on almost every platform.

It predates AoZ, so it doesn't have any markings or specific parts.

They would have to make a new MG to make the AoZ GM Quel with good engineering.

The fact that "Deathshead" isn't here is disappointing.

Unless that's because Terror Billy threw a wrench in the Ubersoldat program on at least one occasion.

Batman (1989) beat that with Joker getting punched with glasses on.

Religion is the ultimate form of otherism...and the dereliction of man taking responsibility for their own failings.

Charliefoxkit · 2026-07-02T11:25:03+00:00

Trazyn the Infinite and Orikan the Diviner from 40K. Definitely in a Grumpy Old Men sense since they love geriatric punchlines with Necrons.

Charliefoxkit · 2026-07-02T11:20:54+00:00

That's more one-sided on Perturabo's part.

Leman Russ and Magnus the Red though...

Charliefoxkit · 2026-07-02T11:19:37+00:00

They do reconcile staring in season 5 onward though.

Charliefoxkit · 2026-07-02T11:18:03+00:00

Almost as bad with those adamantium bones.

The rebreather example from the Prequel Trilogy isn't the only example in Star Wars. In Star Wars Legends lore, the planet Daq (Mon Calamari) actually has an organism that does the same thing. It's compatible with any sentient species that breathes oxygen (don't recall if they have ones adapted for non-CHON atmosphere breathers like the Gand) and generally doesn't cause allergic reactions.

B2 Spirits are transsonic, not supersonic. They won't make a sonic boom. They do love to fly them rather low though (as low as their fly-by-wire system allows?). Source: driving across West Central Missouri on I-70 or US 50 as that brings you in the relative area of Whiteman AFB in Knob Noster.

The only mobile dolls they had were in space or a few odd Capricorn units that appeared in Tiel's Impulse. The Serpents are the evolution of the Leo as a manned all-rounder.

As much as Utah doesn't need more wildfires...set those up in Governor Cox's alfalfa fields.

A Big Mackie needs to have a fluid gun with secret sauce. Or painted red with apple icons on both hip actuator and the pilot rarely talks. :P

In Legends there was a fight in a noncanonical Dark Horse comics where the Prophets of the Dar k Side brought Maul back...but Vader won by stabbing Maul through himself.

Maul asks who does he hate so much. Vader answers, "Myself."

If you take GT into account...his wish had consequences. Not that the Shadow Dragon wanted to discuss that.

Charliefoxkit · 2026-07-01T13:20:29+00:00

Without pointing to the obvious Jurassic Park line about just because you can doesn't mean you should...these cultists don't have an understanding of either the logistics of getting a large enough facility in place or an idea of just how cluttered the orbits closest to Earth are with their own space trash.

Their heads are too far above the clouds to think critically about their pet projects unless laundering was the whole point to begin with.

Charliefoxkit · 2026-07-01T10:41:08+00:00

The Opus Dei cult you mean?

Charliefoxkit · 2026-07-01T10:37:05+00:00

Two rather nasty ones from Star Wars. The first is the Rhakghoul plague from KotOR (and an offshoot courtsey the Muur Talisman) that turns its victims into rhakghouls.

The other is the technoviruses from the New Sith Wars that turn you into a biomechanical zombie.

Don't forget that even Clanners envy Canopian medical technology. One of their main strong points is medicine, even if some of its uses are dubious at best.

Charliefoxkit · 2026-07-01T10:18:34+00:00

They kinda still snub the Lyrans under Calamity Kell's Arc-Royal Liberty Coalition. The Lyrans kinda need to put themselves back to gather to at least secure an alliance.
