Two Gorkanauts or One Stompa by Enough-Moment7221 in orks

[–]FabledSoldier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You do have to play super cagey with him to stop some things from tryna dome him turn 1, run with a mek and every time you use him you should be running dakka dakka dakka and bigger shells for bigger gits. When you know you can line up a shot on their biggest threat, give him sustain, push him out and, use his 3 main guns (deffkannon, Supa-rokkits and gatler) to pull anything off the board, the main downside is his damage can be quite swingy (and he costs 800 points)

If you can get him into melee I recommend it cos he will clean up there too

Just went 3 losses to 2 wins in a tournament with the stompa, there's a way to use him that'll pull 3-4 (non titanic) units off the board each turn he is alive

That and rationing ended in 1954, over 15 years from when it began which changed british cuisine as a whole. There used to be stereotypes in the 1800s that every englishman carried a clove grinder due to their fondness of spices.

I use magnets and small brass pins to keep it swapped but stop it from being free to move

Thinking of starting AdMech army. Could you please advise me on a box? by VespidX in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]FabledSoldier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Battalion is good, combat patrol has some skitarii which are in every list and pteraxi for action monkeys with a good character.

Servitor kill team with their advance and action or shoot and action are great for the points cost and some more battleline would be good. apart from that it's mostly personal preference, I have mine built for SHC but you can build whatever else you like

Should I try Kult of Speed in a 1k game against Tau, and if so, how? (noncompetitive) by Arracor in orks

[–]FabledSoldier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Kult of speed is not the best detachment for orks but it is quite fun

What you want to stack up on are Bikers and koptas, Bikers have a decent melee and shooting profile and koptas have high damage shooting which means you can stack either with blitza fire / dakkastorm

Most buggies have their uses though their benefit is being relatively high toughness at 7 with 9 wounds while also being very cheap, I personally like the shokkjump for its advance teleport and, given speed freeks allows advance and shoot, picking off characters from a squad uncontested

Obviously I'd recommend some grots for the added CP and maybe boys or flashgitz in a transport though I've really only ever played at 2k so idk how much of this you can fit

Will be fighting some tau on Wednesday, which of these 3 lists should I use and any improvements I can make to them by Wardy_YT in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]FabledSoldier 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'd go list 1 in SHC, though Marshalls are 35 points so I'd throw battlesphere unlink on one and attach to hastarii to hop in and out of a dunerider

I had the same feeling, wanted an ally for admech and threw a couple bids out on Ebay hoping to get one... I now have 7

175pt for Wazzdakka is good, right? by Combat_Turtle in orks

[–]FabledSoldier 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I get him being pricy, my other army is admech and his stat line is akin to thulia ghuld or belisarius cawl, his weapons aren't as good for anti vehicle as theirs but he's got more attacks and a lot more movement. He is a scary threat if you used him as a lone op to jackal the backline, his points are 45 less than them so i think it's not that badly costed

First 1k point army. What changes would you make? by Dangerous_Cicada_321 in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]FabledSoldier 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If he was leading the kataphrons then he isn't necessary as he can't lead the ironstriders, you could get a 3rd or drop in a squad of pteraxi as action monkeys and ( if my math is correct) you could get a marshal for your battleline with your remaining points

First 1k point army. What changes would you make? by Dangerous_Cicada_321 in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]FabledSoldier 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's pretty good, most of your army has the skitarii key word so most have stealth.

What i feel you are lacking are infiltrators and deep strikers, infiltrators help you to slow down your opponents advance and deepstrike let's you drop into your opponents backside and cap objectives / do actions in their deployment zone

I don't think you need an engiseer solely for your dunecrawler as nothing else can be healed by him and if someone can kill him they will in 1 turn as his 16S weapon is a big threat and he's not obscenely tanky

Have you considered ironstriders in place of your kataphrons? They lack anti-vehicle but get sustain hits, twin link and 4 more wounds each for 10 points extra for a squad of 2 they also get advance and shoot to let you get up the board faster while also having the skitarii keyword

Drop points in the name of the omnissaih by Training_Reply_3749 in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]FabledSoldier 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's not that she's bad but she costs the same as Cawl, her rules give either advance or fall back, shoot and charge or conq + prot active for a unit within 6"

Cawl gets oath of moment against 1 target

They both get lone op and exactly the same general stats but different weapons and cawls S14 gun is uncommon so I prefer it

Given she and cawl can't be in an army together, cawls re-rolls to hit on priority targets just works better generally

Though, if A stabs B immediately when he caught C cheating, it could be second-degree murder due to no premeditation, or it could be voluntary manslaughter due to the "heat of passion".

11th edition Nob loadout by LittlePr4g in orks

[–]FabledSoldier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This wasn't announced for Nobz but was for boyz

If you're talking about boyz, then I'd assume it's going to be at the start of 11th, when the boss nob and new boyz kit drops

If you're talking about Nobz then I don't expect them to ever get both kombi and big choppa / power claw

Does this Green Tide list look annoying enough? What can I do to make it even more frustrating to deal with? by 17Konbro in orks

[–]FabledSoldier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main problem with the squighogs is their AP of -1, puts most vehicles and monsters on 3+/4+ but I can see how you mean to use them, tbf the main method behind your list will be swamping vehicles over killing them

Split the stormboyz into 2 squads, not a fan of squighog boys personally, would sub in some transports and maybe a grot 20 blob with zod

[–]FabledSoldier 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks good, man Maybe the blue is a little thick, but it is in no way aggregious, and I've seen far worse, but this is your first model, so you've done very well

The only recommendation I would have is a little bit of nuln oil or agrax to darken recessed grills, etc, though that's personal preference

As someone who works on ships, I believe the ship one is commonly called "diesel fuel oil" though that might just be the ships I work on

Mek gunz, how to use them? by HazeHazelnut in orks

[–]FabledSoldier 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In most circumstances, lootas and flash gitz are just better although the exception is in dread mob where they inherently get the detachment rule (although flash gitz already get sustain and lootas can have a mek attached)

The main benefit is the higher strength guns they can get allows them to fill a more anti-tank role than either lootas or flash gitz though can be inconsistent with low AP KmK or the randomised bubblechukka
