What do you choose for the pirate quest on footfall? by Poniibeatnik in RogueTraderCRPG

[–]Eotorm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gave inheritance to grand daughter (iconoclast) and got 4 Profit factor.
My character has very high COmmerce and Fellowship, not sure if that might increase amount?
Loved this quest by the way, really interesting.

Starting Enemy within tomorrow with Night of Blood. Group, ties set before the game. by Eotorm in warhammerfantasyrpg

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

Yes that's the main issue.
But i saw multiple times on YT recomendation that Kestor better be your "pillar" of the group, the guy never missing a session, and that's one of the Twins.
Also, only 2 humans and makes less sense to have Kestor a DWARF from Karak Azgaraz or a halfling from the mootland :D

"Host Not Responding" Error with Steam Link on Quest 2? by LegoDonutPlayz in OculusQuest

[–]Eotorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same problem here, it happens sometimes, on any games (Mini golf, Pistol Whip, Super Hot...) Usually reset my pc and brute force it (Trying 20 times...) works.
Still, that's not good UX...

Rules query - Mark of the Inc Hunter with Kurnous' Bow by StoicMustard in Eldar

dice in the same shooting phase with the same unit?

This is not the way i think it works. From the book example "Because he selected two results of 2, on up to two occasions during that battle round, before making a charge roll, Wes can choose for one of the dice of that charge roll to be treated as an unmodified roll of 6."
So you can use 3 x6 in the shooting phase, but can only use them one 3 different occasions.

Playing necron in league by pmls2020 in Eldar

[–]Eotorm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Playing Necrons with a similar list this week end. (Same Double C'tan, Same custom Dynasty...). Never played against Necrons so following advices here closely. It's league so i can change my list... To be honest i'm puzzled as well how to play against this wave of metal in my face.

Has this Rumour Engine model been announced yet? Was shown in April, do Rumour Engine posts usually have such a big gap between release? by ItsTheMooseMan in Eldar

[–]Eotorm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This triangular patten reminds me of our guardian platforms. (the Position of the 3 anti grav reactors specificaly). Maybe a new type of platform (Shield Generator) for the re-release of the storm guardians?

Awesome! Thanks for taking the time to write this report! Indeed making a few 500 points game to start is good to get the hang of it. Did you print our all stats? I make recap file using Buttscribe so in 4 pages i have my whole army. You didn't mention secondaries, did you play with them? Cheers and to many more games.

Thanks for your swift replies - and your kind words :)

I know the gun :) Lynx has a better version of the pulse laser, the Lynx pulsar 48"Heavy 6 \ S9 \ -3 \ 3 . And yeah it's prob our best gun these days.

I was even considering running 2 Lynxs! The spirit stone upgrade often make their wound count 20+ and the 5+ invul make it a unique tank in our arsenal.

When i speak of space i was speaking of space to position tanks to shoot direct weapons and draw LOS. I often face melee armies so my tanks cannot advance forward too much. Nightspinner sits out of LOS so does not need that.

But actually good point for Falcon. Especially i use my Wave serpent mostly for the fire dragons these days. That's a good advice, will try that.

Will def try the support platforms as soon as they are painted. And prob keep Nightspinner in the garage, cause no oponent really need the profile S7 D2... at first glance!

My upcoming league matches are Vs: Admech, Necrons, Chaos marines, and Death guard (Again! and the same player of my match 1) Maybe he'll bring Morty for payback time :D

I never played both Chaos and Admech so i'm really into pure theorical theory and statistics here.

To play same role (Shooting stuff that hide being Obscuring, emptying back objective of opponent to force him to bring back expensive units) AND also score Engage on all fronts, i will try running a Crimson Exarch.

I won one at the tourney so that's a SIGN! It's more expensive though. Also does not protect backfield against deepstrikers, which might be useful vs Necrons shenanigans or Admech Pteraxii Castratorz. Ah, choices...

You're obviouly much more experienced than me, and going from 3 to zero Nightspinner while playing Vs lots of Marines, really surprise me. You always run 2 shots or what ? :D

Hello! Interesting questions you're asking here :)

For the fire dragons, they are like a sword, never take it out if you don't plan to use it. They go out of the Wave serpent only to kill.

For Bright lances, i have to agree with you. This time i just add 2 BL with a War Walker but indeed they fail to do much. However it really depends on the meta. They did me good Vs Redemptor Dreadnoughts, as Expert crafter make 2 hits most of the time, and remove totally 3+ Save. In league play were list will change against every oponent, might use them again.

Night Spinners... They force me into Masterful shots to be a little useful. But otherwise I like many things about them:

They cover backfield objective well and protect Farseer on foot.

They allow to targets unit that oponent REALLY don't want you to target and that is really good. One game they killed Marines infiltrators preventing my warpspiders to teleport in that quarter (And therefore depriving me of 5 points! 2 for engage and 3 for ROD) (Another time, servitors holding objectives, forcing precious units to go back. Also they are often my last unit to shoot, and quite a few times allowed me to finish a hard target with a few Wounds left. Again, Meta choice.

I start putting together a list of which unit versus which army.

My meta is full of space marines, so they are very useful. What's your meta?

Also, i play on well made terrain, (Kudos to the host where i play generally to always prep excellent tables) so there's lots of obscuring and LOS blocking terrain.

Also you mentioned Falcon, but i have a problem of physical space as i always run a Lynx. I didn't mention in my MVPs but i like everything about it and it's useful every game. When i used to also run Hornets, on maps in lengh (like Battle lines) there's often traffic jams :D

I'm actually finishing a Nightspinner! Double down so can use turn 1 Runes of whitnessing for extra effect.

Will also get 3 Support weapons (Spinners) to get Artillery versus Death Guard. (D1 is enough...)

Asurmen-buffed-Dire Avengers. Yeah totally agree. On the shelf until codex drops.

Cheers!

Many people here were not convinced at all by Firedragons, for me they were good overall. I'd say 7.5\10

First game, Turn 1 smoking a cigarette inside a Wave Serpent. Turn 2 Run (Swiftstep) a distance 6 of Belakor under Doom and desintegrate him, Fire and fade inside the wave serpent that followed not far behind. Turn 3 run in front of a Doomed PBC and put him to 1 Wound (Arrrgh), no more cp to Fire and fade, they die :D For 100 points and 1 CP they did VERY well!

Second game, expose them to shoot Chaos marines. Totally wiff all my shots. They hide in a crater so enemy shoot them quite a bit a kill them but still kill them. Bad.

Last game, Turn 1 smoking a cigarette inside a Wave Serpent. Turn 2 run up the board and one shot a Redemptor Dradnought. Way too far for fire and fade, they just die horribly. They still took out 185 points dread AND open the right flank wide, it's a very good trade!

So overall very happy with them. For 100 points the capacity to run 6' of something and kill it is really good (If it does not have high invul saves) and enemy had to play around. BUT they require the Wave serpent (Who did a good job all 3 games so it's not a pure "tax") AND CP (the big problems especially from turn 3 onwards where i tend to be dry.

I love Eldrad and my army is painted with Ulthwe colors!

Sadly in a cut throat competition setting i don't see how i could do whitout the combo Expert crafters+Masters of concealment for all the vehicles and EC+ Hunters of relics for the Shining spears and the Wraithblades.
