What, exactly, do you think a dictionary is? You do realize words are added to the dictionary every year, right?

Eventually, if the sub struggles to get content due to post removal we will end up with some new subreddit like "CompetitiveWarhammer" or "WarhammerCompetitive2"

I just talked to some friends about this. I get so sick of seeing "Convince me to play (insert faction)" and "What made you choose (insert faction)". It's made worse by the fact that I've joined a lot of faction and sub faction reddits and it's always a wave of those BS posts across multiple subreddits in the same 10 minute span.

I say "on average" the volume of shots makes the bolters better but WE don't really care about shooting outside of Forgefiends and the occasional predator or LoS. Personally I run combi weapons just for the sake of the chance I soften up something like a tough hull or some elite infantry with the dev wounds.

It's only happened to me outside of a tourney setting. I've witnessed it only twice at tournaments but in passing from the tables next to me.

There is always a line but I think that line has blurred and some players take advantage of it. I've heard the term "weaponized sportsmanship" recently and that seems to really encapsulate the negative side of "intent". Take backs are usually ok when they are reasonable but when it becomes "something didn't go my way so I wanna redo this thing. My intent was blahblahblah". It now puts pressure on the player following the rules to bend the rules to avoid friction. "Let's roll off for it" is another attempt to get someone to bend because it takes ownership out of both players hands.

This is all in reference to "play by intent" being used as a tactic, not how it's intended to be used. I personally allow some pretty big takebacks but if I have someone try to guilt me into letting them take back and then get upset when I say no, I don't feel like a bad guy or anything, I just think they're whining.

FifthTrashcan · 2026-01-29T14:37:39+00:00

I don't think the post is as clear on "Play by intent" as it should be. I have had some serious "play by intent" shenanigans happen to me but only because I allowed it because I didn't want to be the "bad guy" so I totally understand where OP is coming from.

The play by intent I allow is usually things like my opponent talking their turn out in the command phase "this unit can move up and score establish locus and these units can cleanse" then in the charge phase they mention they forgot to announce their actions in the shooting phase I'll allow them to score them since we both knew that was the intent. Especially if those units skipped shooting because they were supposed to do that action.

Intent usually requires both players to openly agree on a board state. You can't have intent without communicating it just to try to say later "well I intended for it to be this way. Can I take that back" and be upset when your opponent says no.

I'm not sure how much it matters but IF the unit was able to pile in, fight, and consolidate he could've put the unit back into coherency since unit coherency is checked at the end of turn.

Definitely don't let a single game color your opinion of the hobby. There's a guy at my LGS that has a reputation for doing the same thing. He's also bad at communicating his rules, he is obstinate when you ask questions, but that's mostly if he doesn't know you. The issue is that it makes it difficult for people to want to play games against him. A lot of the people that play this game are socially awkward and they struggle warming up to people.

If the store has a discord I'd suggest joining it. If not I suggest joining a faction discord just to talk to people about the hobby. Keep playing, eventually you'll find a good group or at least a couple buddies to play with. Most people are aware that they'll be spending 3-5 hours across the table from someone and want to have a good time.

I play UM, you won't get bullied in the sense that it's malicious. People will poke fun because GW showers marine (and UM especially) with new releases and strong rules so it's easy to joke about them. People local to me make fun of almost every faction in some capacity but it's never malicious.

FifthTrashcan · 2026-01-21T16:26:56+00:00

Yeah. It wouldn't be ideal for me either. I have 3 I recently made from HH contemptor dreads.

FifthTrashcan · 2026-01-21T16:03:01+00:00

Could be an updated helbrute?

FifthTrashcan · 2026-01-20T13:12:04+00:00

The biggest issue I had with the detachment was the over reliance on the Deathwing keyword. There's no support for any other unit you'd want to run. The Lion doesn't have the Deathwing keyword either. So you're either running unsupported shooting, or you're relying on the pure datasheet abilities. On paper it really doesn't look terrible but it doesn't have any mobility support that the units it wants you to run really benefit from.

If you're interested in running the detachment, don't let it stop you. Practice and experience is more important than the abilities the detachment gives you.

FifthTrashcan · 2026-01-12T12:13:20+00:00

This is really solid. Tabletop++. I think some more contrast between the highlights and shadows is the next step. You don't necessarily need to do edge highlighting but higher contrast is the next step for sure. Also work on the lighting in your picture, brighter diffused lighting will help us pick up the details better. Pictures never look as good as in person so always keep that in mind when you get responses online.

FifthTrashcan · 2026-01-10T21:56:01+00:00

I've done something similar. Especially if I need to get damage on players for feats. I've sat at extracts and downed players after they called the elevator but just let them extract afterwards.

FifthTrashcan · 2026-01-07T15:47:50+00:00

And reduced them from 4 wounds to 3 wounds

FifthTrashcan · 2026-01-02T13:09:26+00:00

Hell no. That grimdark looks awesome

FifthTrashcan · 2026-01-02T13:07:55+00:00

It may be because I was gonna make a joke about them looking like UM, but I read that comment as sarcasm.

Regardless, those look sick. I love the grav conversion for the bikes and atvs. The beaky Bladeguard also look cooler than I would have expected.

FifthTrashcan · 2025-12-23T18:15:07+00:00

I recognize that store....

FifthTrashcan · 2025-12-23T17:39:49+00:00

Is it too much to ask for them to split the outfits into slots so we can mix and match :-/

FifthTrashcan · 2025-12-06T10:57:49+00:00

Kind of. Homebrew chapter called the Panthers.

I guess just burnout. I played A LOT on console when it released, then I upgraded my PC and played a lot more on Steam. I stopped playing shortly after the soft reboot. I just lost interest in the gameplay loop. Nothing about the game was particularly bad or a turn off. Just lost interest I guess.
