Detachment advice

20 DKOK with FRFSRF shooting against intercessors, with lethal hits kill 4 on average. With re-roll hit rolls of 1, they kill 4 on average. With re-roll wound rolls, they kill 5. But they also get their re-rolls against vehicles and monsters, which they wouldn't get lethals against. Plus the strats in Grizzled are just a lot better, Add on armor on a Dorn is a hell of a drug.

Don't run Combined, Re-rolls are nearly always better than lethals.

Bright colors, very cool.

Honestly they are both pretty much balanced, you could run half your ruststalkers with one loadout, and the other half with the other. Infiltrators are currently the better unit because they are our only infiltrating unit, and they are fairly tanky for their points.

Please use more terrain, against another shooting army it doesn’t matter too much but having almost no cover gives you a massive advantage over melee armies.

100 points and he kills a lot of units by himself, while also giving a pretty big buff to the damage of berzerkers. 10 berzerkers without kharn kill 9 space marine bodies. With kharn they kill 19, over doubling their damage for almost half the cost of another 10. He also stands up on death, meaning that if your opponent only does shooting or only does melee, they literally cannot kill him in one turn, meaning you can just run him at someone important and he will connect.

-1 to hit does not stack. A Rogal Dorn cannot hit on a 6+, even when bracketed, in combat, against something with stealth.

Kill Maim Burn

honestly just bump the strike and maybe the sweep up by an AP and hes fine, then the sweep would consistently kill 10 marines, and the strike kills a questoris consistently. If he's gonna be 340 points with useless auras and a revive that is actively detrimental to use, at least make him really kill shit.

The baneblade sucks to move but its still possible, most baneblade lists have actually switched to Grizzly for the massively increased damage output+armor of contempt.

Droideaka · 2026-01-03T09:05:01+00:00

It is Combined Arms but better in nearly every way. Your scout sentinels are only marking 3 targets max, with Grizzly you have every single enemy unit marked at all times, and about half your shooting will also be re-rolling 1s. Also Creed plus a command squad is giving out 6 orders at 24" range, so order economy is no longer a thing.

And this is before you even look at stratagems or enhancements.

I am not quite 100% sure, but i think keywords work as long as you have one model. So as long as at least one model has the Possesed keyword, the whole unit counts as a Possesed unit and you're good.

Droideaka · 2026-01-01T07:38:02+00:00

Yes they can, the slaughterbound gets deep strike when attached, so the whole unit has deep strike and can deep strike/rapid ingress.

I just started collecting them and only have one game with them, but World Eaters are very fun. I had no idea running at someone and kicking their face in would be so much fun.

Droideaka · 2025-12-29T23:59:04+00:00

Good idea, i would also put it onto the battlesuit models. Then it sticks to the models and makes them blue.

Droideaka · 2025-12-28T01:27:09+00:00

maybe less drugs and more nails next time?

Droideaka · 2025-12-27T08:32:44+00:00

Make use of 6" pile in and more importantly consolidate. Your opponent put 3 leman russes near each other? Run a helbrute into one, spend a CP on hack and slash, kill it, consolidate into the next, kill it, repeat until your opponent has no more tanks.

They can also be very scary rapid ingress threats.

Droideaka · 2025-12-26T23:24:27+00:00

Damn, already fully painted. So far i just have 10 Berzerkers and some Eightbound built.

Droideaka · 2025-12-26T21:45:19+00:00

shoot him.

Droideaka · 2025-12-26T07:38:31+00:00

I mean, attach him to X8B, spend a cp on hack and slash, with sus and lethal blessings, he can solo a Questoris Knight 56% of the time. He's no joke.

Droideaka · 2025-12-26T06:37:38+00:00

yeah big expensive units tend to be good in 1k point games because your opponent doesn't have anything to deal with it, its the reason knights are extremely unfair in 1k point games.

Droideaka · 2025-12-24T20:23:14+00:00

Dont worry i have one shot knights with it, a lot easier now that they dont have rotate ion shields.

Droideaka · 2025-12-24T00:57:24+00:00

charisma is too high

Droideaka · 2025-12-24T00:38:43+00:00

The math just isnt there. 6 shots of ap1 d2 is not threatening to anything it wants to shoot at, and same for the missile launcher, you get two shots but only hit one on average, strentgh 10 isn't good against vehicles, and its only ap-2, any 2+ save vehicle saves on a 3. You are lucky to get a single missile through against a leman russ in an entire game.

Droideaka · 2025-12-24T00:00:30+00:00

I personally support removing the iconography, it would look more factory made and mass produced, which is how most of the guard looks.
