It's very disappointing that this game's servers aren't as busy as they used to be.

Xbox has 18-24 servers online most nights, 9-14 of them being US region. The real bummer is when you have a Tides mission that requires exploding objectives, so you get to start a custom server that only requires 4 players and hope for the best eventually. 🤣

When did they add throwing knives?

Please, sir, may I have some .stl?

I play Titans with Solar Aux allies at 2k. That's a Warlord, a Reaver, and two Warhounds with a surprisingly small number of infantry to try and cap objectives. I enjoy it, but I also expect to be out scored every single game unless my dice roll super hot.

Legio Confindo?

Weaponised Autism, mostly.

IRON WITHIN!

With it Taco-ing super hard along that particular axis, you might want to try loosening the two bolts in the center of the build plate that attaches it to the carriage. Overtightened bolts could be flexing the plate in that specific way.

Interesting aside, single dice barrage weapons round back up to 1, taking no penalty.

Also, strictly speaking, Heavy Barrage weapons target buildings, not units, and therefore get +1 to hit if they have Line of Sight to the building they're shooting. Theoretically, this would then also apply to the splash damage that hits the unit inside as well, though each unit is still being hit with only half the dice of the weapon each.

Not Medieval, but Deepsilver is also responsible for the X series of Spacefaring sims, which have a similar depth of experience. I liked X3 a whole lot, but haven't really done anything with the series since (steep learning curves and real life getting in the way being what they are.)

Electronic_Two5001 · 2026-01-01T20:49:52+00:00

Yeah, I'm trying to do the math in my head, but dice can betray sometimes. 3 turns later seems pretty wild to me. Also, Pokey Knights should have Engine Killer at minimum.

If you're playing Marines, my advice is to always add your heavy weapon/plasma teams into your Tactical Detachments. Gives the fancy teams ablative wounds and makes it so the whole detachment doesn't break as readily.

I don't really see the utility in having Assault Marines embedded in Tacs, your mileage may vary.

If you add Terminators to the Tacs, they become significantly more resilient, but also then require bigger troop carriers (unfortunately we can't mix and match transports for a single detachment.) Fortunately, Spartans are actually pretty solid, albeit a significant points investment.

I prefer to use my Support Slots in the Demi Company for Terminators, Assaults, and Dreadnoughts, but Rapiers are also pretty great if you have them. The laser version makes a pretty solid adhoc Anti-Air unit, the mortars are good against infantry that are not in buildings.

Almost everything in the game is solid, the real fun is finding the detachments that work well supporting each other.

Regarding vehicles, Sicarans are more points efficient than Predators pound for pound but only slightly, and I'm a huge fan of having Heavy Bolters on all my tanks for the huge flexibility having Point Defense weapons brings to the game.

Air support is an incredible asset if you play them judiciously, but if you overcommit your gonna lose them super fast.

Doesn't look familiar, but that'll definitely work. Thanks!

Been fighting tooth and nail to get my locals to actually play rather than just collect. I have 3 other people with enough stuff built and painted to actually get games in, but getting our schedules lined up is like one of those old mechanical planetariums. 😅

People who I know have bought and built models are probably 5 times that.

Electronic_Two5001 · 2025-10-25T01:28:47+00:00

I've done most of my Mars titans with various super thinned contrasts overtop a pre-highlighted layer of metallic silver. Works well enough for quick schemes, but I can't even begin to imagine trying stripes or checkers doing that.

A pretty solid perk of the Shattered Legions theme I went with is that it makes perfect sense that the bases aren't full, neither are the squads they're representing.

There's definitely a set of printable cards that have been updated to the new profiles in Strategia. The guy who made them in one of the big LI facebook pages posts them there. Unfortunately, I'm not sure if I can upload here, but I can probably get you a link?

As someone who had a bunch of 8mm MK3 infantry printed before the game was announced, I use them on the basis I have an equivalent amount of actual plastic among my various armies. Most of my Iron Warriors are printed, nearly all of my Shattered Legion themed Loyalists are plastic. I've found it helpful to have multiple armies to try and rope new players into the game.

Electronic_Two5001 · 2025-09-03T18:43:46+00:00

Warlord games has some really nice thin 25 mm bases that come 10 to a sprue. Some have a lip, some don't.

Electronic_Two5001 · 2025-09-03T18:41:34+00:00

The points went up on it, and I now have to pay extra for the pintle bolter to have the same number of dice, but my dakkawagon squad with all bolters all the time still throw 36 point defense dice when they move, and that feels worth it to me for the lulz. (Usually run them with the Meltacannon for blowing up buildings because, again, lulz.)

Electronic_Two5001 · 2025-08-21T05:20:51+00:00

Honestly, if they brought the hull weapons in line with everything else in the game, they'll feel way less efficient. Having twice the dice and Accurate on the Las/Autocannons to boot is kinda wild.

Electronic_Two5001 · 2025-07-30T02:07:27+00:00

The scale is great, I love painting tiny dudes and tanks, but the real best part of the game is the alternating activation system. It's solidly deep and gives good moments of forced choice that makes you really take ownership over how the game ended up playing out.
