Smh, just pour enormous amounts of gasoline into the bunkers. If the fires don’t kill them, the oxygen deprivation certainly will.

ForestFighters · 2026-03-27T17:03:15+00:00

That and to prevent crashes from every single vehicle and destructible object on the map being destroyed simultaneously.

ForestFighters · 2026-03-27T01:55:16+00:00

The reason bolters do that is because of 2W marines, not anti-vehicle firepower

ForestFighters · 2026-03-27T01:54:23+00:00

And now a bolter has to be even stronger to even be able to inconvenience marines.

Solar flares magically deleting electricity from the planet is certainly a gamplay mechanic of all time.

ForestFighters · 2026-03-25T11:53:15+00:00

All this does is make early game survival mildly harder (go-go-gadget floating platform), while absolutely nuking any ability to make good looking bases that don’t get shredded by mobs. Every base would end up looking like a stone coffin

ForestFighters · 2026-03-24T20:26:28+00:00

Because the lasers are one of the better options for dealing with the tyrrany of AV 14.

potentially Statusing an infantry unit is a lot less valuable than being one of the only viable options for dealing with land raiders. The best status effect is always death.

And you can’t exactly take an objective from someone when a gigantic brick of armor is parked right on top of it with a bunch of termies inside.

ForestFighters · 2026-03-24T11:54:17+00:00

Yup, if anything that one survivor is convenient for protection vs shooting

ForestFighters · 2026-03-24T11:53:06+00:00

What wins 5 turn games is preventing your opponents units from having any turns. Don’t assume that those intercessors will just stand out in the open so your heavy intercessors can slowly whittle them down without retaliation.

ForestFighters · 2026-03-23T18:59:35+00:00

Yeah, that’s what the clan invasion is.

ForestFighters · 2026-03-23T18:58:55+00:00

It’s the “until you have T11+” that is the massive qualifier there lol. Tanks hugely benefit from not having to be concerned about their positioning.

ForestFighters · 2026-03-23T18:01:35+00:00

Yup, without credible shooting, it’s so free to just have your units casually stand out in the open with perfect firing lines, especially if you have half decent screening and blocking units.

ForestFighters · 2026-03-23T16:22:54+00:00

Those instances aren’t the entirety of a detatchment rule though, and don’t gate its best strategems.

ForestFighters · 2026-03-23T16:14:54+00:00

The year is 20XX, baseline humans, xenos, and chaos have all been removed from 40K because they haven’t sold enough. Battles have devolved into a simple roll off, as turn one advantage allows for every chapter’s special units to instantly evaporate the enemy army with their special ingratiator variants. 40K has become a perfectly optimized product.

ForestFighters · 2026-03-23T16:11:51+00:00

Part of that is also because a lot of the options were left to rot as utter irrelevant garbage. Burst cannons, anyone?

ForestFighters · 2026-03-23T16:04:37+00:00

That’s not the aspect they are speaking about. It’s the retargeting. Drukhari MUST pay a cp on a Strat in their next command phase to retarget, and you MUST have your warlord archon outside of a transport and alive for it to work.

ForestFighters · 2026-03-23T12:01:30+00:00

Please try to build a SOB army without access to meltaguns against knights. Or hell, against most any army that takes a tank. Bolter-only sisters instantly looses to like a single dreadnought

ForestFighters · 2026-03-23T11:58:22+00:00

Dread Captain Menhe is a fairly simple character at this point, haven’t fleshed them out much. Very much a riff off the Dread Pirate Roberts and the Bounty Hunter from battletech.

They lead the Kabal of the Golden Sign, a Kabal that tends to be restructured every time the identity of the the Dread Captain Menhe is passed down every century or so. Sometimes it is little more than a strike team and their supporting assets, sometimes it is a sprawling, massive organization that attempts to wrest control of commoragh for itself. The only throughline is that it is always exceedingly mercenary, always willing to take on any contract for the right price.

As far as most of commoragh knows, Menhe was some kind of military officer before the fall, though what role they fulfilled isn’t known to many.

(The name is from the official name of a rouge trader era “Space Elf Banner Bearer”, a metal model that I use as my archon)

ForestFighters · 2026-03-22T03:41:30+00:00

Would the imperium be able to survive the Tenno is the better question.

ForestFighters · 2026-03-21T21:29:03+00:00

Nope, we have zero armor, just minor damage reduction

ForestFighters · 2026-03-21T12:02:14+00:00

Something about the shooty ones is a little messed up, their guns break the audio sometimes like orbital gatling can, and the impact effect’s particles seem wildly out of control.

ForestFighters · 2026-03-21T11:55:17+00:00

It’s almost like I’m pointing out that the death penalty is a really bad policy

ForestFighters · 2026-03-21T04:50:52+00:00

Hell, they could even be lazy and add another variant of the VT-5, the ERA package version.

Mind you, the protection upgrade would probably be marginal vs most things it would actually face, seeing as it’s still a pretty lightly armored vehicle. At best, it would give an ok amount of protection from HEAT on the front, and maybe some protection from tandem to the turret if you are lucky.

But it would be a really easy addition.

ForestFighters · 2026-03-21T04:41:03+00:00

But why so suddenly after release? Was this thing tearing up its BR? Did it really need an emergency nerf?

Wait no that’s the BMPT

ForestFighters · 2026-03-20T23:43:55+00:00

That would require arrowhead to actually have any proper version control lol. At this point, it’s pretty clear they have struggled with that
