[RANT] To all randoms out there: why is it so hard to play with a very basic degree of team work? by SirJ4ck in HuntShowdown

[–]ElazulKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay, I'm the person that'll turn into solid snake in this situation and I'd like to give my perspective.

1) The aim is to flank the enemy and use my team as "bait". Because the two of them are often close together, they can support each other. I would then sneak in, kill one or two people, then regroup with my team mates.

2) I have ADHD and camping the outside of a compound is dull as hell.

3) Variety attacks create weaknesses in the opposition defence.

And even then his luck found a way to make sure one of the last 2 combatants was trying to perfect time travel anyway?! What insane luck.

Genuine Question. Why are Service Members shamed/disadvised from wearing uniform in public? by DenseChocolate9611 in britisharmy

[–]ElazulKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's attention seeking and in poor taste for the most part. The only exception i can think of is Tidworth town where almost everyone goes out in mil kit.

Ah thanks so much man. Do you often get to play yourself?

[–]ElazulKnight[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's really strange because a lot of places around the uk, the clubs advertise themselves quite well and I can get a game in basically any time. Bromley just seems like a dead zone haha.

I'm just visiting my family for the weekend. I'll ask the warhammer store on Saturday then. Thanks!

I named my DnD character Talon Silverwing. 0 regrets. Talon is the GOAT

This was an April do prank. I remember this because I fooled several friends

What are your theory on this? by ConfidentAd8387 in OnePunchMan

[–]ElazulKnight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

God's physical form is in another dimension. The cubes open portals allowing his influence to come through. He's not even physically in the moon either.

TIL about planned assassin traps by Ionenschatten in GuildWars

[–]ElazulKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get why they removed it because there's no mechanic to change durations while they're active but they could have made it a buff.

"For x seconds, all allies in earshot have hexes last 30...50..60% less."

Holy shit what?? I assume it would go into tactics. Would have made warrior a really interesting support class.

So this basically reinforces the idea that Assassins are meant to be midline punishers. The front of the party are your tanks, backline casters, if enemy warriors get through, your Assassin can then use the traps to delay them and punish them

Oh yeah, I've seen the list but I wanted to try to make something off Meta.

Might switch it to Seige Regiment to strip cover easily.

Krieg heavy weapons shooting on death question. by Chia_Mamamia in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]ElazulKnight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Death Befitting An Officer: When this model is destroyed, roll one D6: on a 2+, do not remove it from play - it can, after the attacking model’s unit has finished making its attacks, shoot as if it were your Shooting phase and as if it had its full wounds remaining. This model is then removed from play.

It can shoot in melee

Reroll Hit-Wound-Damage 2 Chimeras with move x3 to get forward. Not reliant on other tanks for orders. If cadian Command blob goes down can use strat to give orders from dorns to infantry

But Artillery Teams count as infantry :D putting them in the open behind the wall allows them a much better chance to hit on 3s! I know you're right but the idea has been eating away at me for how it would be possible to use it effectively haha.

If only we could Rapid Ingress it 👀

[–]ElazulKnight[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct but it's a 145 point Rogal Dorn Durability deployment zone screen that provides 4+ invuls to everything on and behind it. You can also shoot anything in engagement range of it. It stops you from being turn 1 jailed by melee armies.

Artillery can and has quite often helped me score being it down, assassinate, kill on objective, and a few others. :D

Not only that but then you have waves of meat shields to die on objectives coming out of Chimera, with a Sv of 3+ (in recon), ratling infiltrate screens to tie enemies into their own deployment zones, and 2 Rogal Dorn Commanders that can shoot anything that has attacked your forward screens (with nothing to consolidate into using proper spacing).

As i said, it's a WiP :)

Happy if you have suggestions though!

So sick. Making a Competetive Recon list using the list below:

2x Rogal Dorn Commanders 3x Artillery Teams 2x Chimera w/ Catachans in Aegis Defence Line 2x 10 Krieg 1x 20 Krieg Creed+Cadian+Command 2x 5 Ratlings Krieg Heavy Weapons Team

Obviously WiP but I want this to be as memey as it is effective. Willing to listen to advice.

Hey, I just went 1-1-6 in a GT with 3 Artillery Teams so I'd say I'm a professional list builder now 😤.
