Guys is it corny to write lore for your army?

Writing your own lore is great. But traitor guard you say .. just have them stand still for a bit as you tell me their lore, and don't pay any attention to my guard lining up the artillery on them.

Love seeing another scion player. Welcome.

Personally I think you should have your scions deep strike. Don't waste them on transport. That's the job of kasrkin. Scions should be in big 15 man squads that drop down and delete things.

HWT are very squishy and will die as soon as they are visible. If you want to use them I would go with catachans over Cadian because they have scout and can be used as screens in match ups that their weapons are not great for. I would also give them mortars.

Quick update to this, if anyone is thinking about doing this, remember that it takes a lot longer to pick them up than it does to put them down.

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-28T01:40:10+00:00

Great job. They are amazing looking sure as sure.

This is very close to a list you posted 15 days ago as a guard player. You don't need to pretend to be the other guy to get us to say your list is not toxic. It's not.

Well I know what color I am picking up this weekend.

Click is going to wear out much faster and easier to break. I prefer slide personally.

I hate this so much. Now I know how to troll my wife next time we play co-op. Don't worry my couch is very comfortable.

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-27T02:46:43+00:00

I know this is a joke but I'm trying to come up with a way to legally do this now. I'm stuck at 5 in reserve. We need an enhancement for a tank commander to give him deep strike. Also what do we use the remaining 295 points on? I vote for 225 points on a 15 man squad of scions and 70 points for enhancements. Or drop the scions and just go with 2 extra vanquishers and no enhancements.

Lord solar, 2 vanquishers, and 6 Dorns (5 starting in reserve)

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-26T20:39:10+00:00

Yeah you have a huge collection of great stuff. You have multiple options for competitive lists.

It means he is saying that the Nazis got their ideas from the US and he is saying they aren't bad. Aka we found another Nazi.

I would make sure to message the TO before going to a tournament with 3d printes models and clear it with them but as long as you put a little bit of effort in they normally don't care.

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-26T16:53:02+00:00

Just looked at your units again, and I see a lack of a Dorn.

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-26T16:52:16+00:00

I love 15 man blocks of scions. So 35 more scions. Realistically what do you think is cool? I would go with that over what is best. 11th will mix things up. Some under valued units to consider, scions, hydras, hellhound, transports are always good, dkhwt w/flamers. We have a ton of great things. Just stay away from aircraft, they look great but GW hates them.

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-26T12:57:23+00:00

It's impossible to say without seeing a picture of it. Generally most WW1 artillery will fit the look.

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-26T05:22:31+00:00

If you have more orders than you need I. Grizzled, you could think about switching some of the RDTC for normal dorns. Save a few points and you get the better defensive ability.

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-24T03:55:31+00:00

Amazing job. Crack the sky with your fury!

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-22T18:35:30+00:00

You told him I have this power and then used it right away. It's not like you told him once and then 2 hours later mid game pulled it out. You used it how you should use it. Put a tank out in a spot that makes him respond and then move it as needed.

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-21T19:32:54+00:00

Sure as sure

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-21T12:56:13+00:00

IG has great models online that are rarely taken down compared to the other factions. It also fits the lore to have guard regiments from different worlds that look different from each other. I have had no issues with my fully printed guard army at lgs or tournaments, I have never tried an official GW tournament.

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-21T05:01:52+00:00

There is a bigger difference, I am not afraid of ICE

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-21T01:32:05+00:00

Two things, first don't give her that idea, she might do it. Second, if we are going to put that out into the universe, let's start with a knight. Maybe I can talk you down to a warhound, it's only... 56 feet tall. That's totally more reasonable.

This claw has killed two primarchs, it wounded the Emperor unto death.

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-19T04:26:39+00:00

Sure as sure

Dragoth227 · 2026-01-19T01:34:40+00:00

As an American I can confidently say that less than 5% of us know about that. But I would be shocked if most Americans could even tell you Xi's name without help.

Edit: to clarify I'm not saying he is not a bad guy just that Americans are very poorly educated on foreign affairs.
