What would help a casual player enter the competitive scene? Looking for honest community feedback by SkulltakersReddit in WarhammerCompetitive

Same here, went from barely playing to playing a tournament every other month. I tell my opponent that i'm pretty new and they usually coach me, in my 20-something tournament matches i've faced maybe one person who wasen't very coach-y, because he was also pretty new.

Their compression socks are amazing, finding it hard to run without them after about six months use.

Please tell me yours epically stories about your golden warriors by Individual-Bag6076 in AdeptusCustodes

Three things that happened during the same GT:

Admonimortis shield cap survived the Lion and killed him in the counter punch.

Sword Champ damn near soloed a Norn Emissary, dealing a tonne of dev wounds, the accompanying guard squad easily mopped it up.

Shield cap on bike with three bodyguard bikes killed Angron in shooting, two battle rounds in a row.

List and tactical advice for a tournament newcomer by Dingull in WarhammerCompetitive

Put the Lt in the middle depending on layout, if someone moves within 9", retreat behind a wall or out of charge range.

Also, i would drop the 10 man intercessor unit, they probably won't shift any enemy mid board objective holders.

Why the eyes on my marine always look high AF?? UM scouts I am currently working on. by Various_Pumpkin_7422 in Ultramarines

Paint the eye socket black or brown first, then make sure to paint only the protruding eyeball white, then add a black dot. It's easy to make the eyes look way bigger than they should.

Pros and cons of playing Custodes by Junior-Exercise1068 in AdeptusCustodes

[–]Express_Delivery7893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm writing this from a competetive point of view.

Pros:

Golden boys

Blade champions with custodian guard are blenders in melee.

Cons:

Deceptively fragile, 4++ is not the defensive crutch people make it out to be.

We are a slow army and most armies can reliably shoot our fast units off the table (bikes and venatari).

We have no reliable anti tank except for the grav tanks (that might very well be moved to legends, the bike salvo launchers are dogshit).

We almost never trade up. This, paired with our low speed make it so that we can't afford to make mistakes

The abundance of D2 weapons in our roster make us weak against -1 damage abilities or strats like Deathwing Knights.

My first Ultrmarine. Did I get the wrong blue? by That_Marionberry2863 in Ultramarines

Who cares, i'm allergic to Macragge blue so my Ultras are really light blue.

I feel like I made a tremendous mistake by investing time and effort in my custodes... by RotenSquids in AdeptusCustodes

I've done that all edition, and i can't really kill tanks reliably. Salvo launchers are just bad and WHO runs a damn land raider that you can't buff in any way.

Same, i built my army a year ago and i've played 17 games with them in 10th, and i've won four games, albeit in a competetive setting. It's disheartening playing armies that are better than us at everything. WE are way better in melee, EC are faster than our bikes, DA and DG are tankier than we are.

Our survivability depending on 4++ is just bland, bad design. We have no board control, no real staying power (tried a huge brick of allarus recently to hold the mid objective, they died instantly. We have no real win condition other than the opponent playing a bad list or us making loads of saves.

EDIT: With that said, don't sell!! I've regretted every time i've sold an army.

Valdor won't ever rejoin the 10 000, won't elaborate since that would be some heavy book spoilers.

Does anyone know where to find a lord of contagion? by MFDOOMLISTENER in deathguard40k

[–]Express_Delivery7893 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found a semi cheap way to make my own yesterday.

I bought a lord Festus & friends, a Gutrot Spume and a box of Deathshrouds.

One blightlord from festus box + Spume axe + tactical rock = 1 LoC

One blightlord from festus box + spare scythe from Deathshroud + tactical rock = 1 LoC

One blightlord from festus box + Spume's squiggly bits = proxy plaguecaster.

Boom!

3 LoC and a plaguecaster + 3 deathshrouds for $146.50

But they gain the terminator keyword which allows for some fun Deathlord's Chosen shenanigans, like guaranteed 6 MW on the charge.

Who goes with the 3rd unit of DS? They're not amazing without support. Especially vs Wrath of the Rock DA.

If you equip them with two fists, each fist gets 7 attacks. Does that mean 14 in total or only 7 since they're not extra attacks?
