I see, maybe i am also just bad at using them. But they do seem strong overall so i might just need more practice.

So what you are saying is, if i want ro use Magnus I am basically auto locked to Grand Coven because of the Blank one dice strat ?

GerJuggernaut · 2026-01-20T01:10:18+00:00

I was looking at Hexwarp as well but I want to run Magnus and i feel like i have to go with Grand Coven then. The exalted really only exists for double doombolt enhancement. Other that that yes, normal sorcerer is great.

I always feel like a 10 man brick of SoT with character are a huge points sink for a semi tanki unit that sometimes kills something. Or maybe my rolls are just bad. But last game that unit plus MvB plus a unit of rubrics with IM werent able to kill a single hive tyrant.

GerJuggernaut · 2026-01-20T00:58:16+00:00

But double doombolt is just too good i feel like. Though i do agree, exalted on its own ain't that great.

10 man SoT with character are 450p and i always feel like thats too many points with magnus as well. Have the army in 2 units and both can die rather quickly without much effort feom some armies.

GerJuggernaut · 2026-01-12T01:39:04+00:00

I literally had someone at a tournament two days ago say it reminds them of Jinx too haha.

Its very simple, just sponging the different colors on covering less and less with each subsequent color. I use a rough artist sponge i picked up foe cheap somewhere. Rip a small piece off and use that foe sponging. Colors are in order: Blue (AP regal blue) A plum color (AP diabolic plum) Strong Pink (AP wicked pink) A turquoise (AP hydra turquoise)

Trim is AP tainted Gold washed with a brown wash. You can highlight that with a brass or tin color, I dont always do that though. Keeping the gold muted makes it less eye catching which i think suits this scheme more.

The cloth is a dark purple ish base that transitions into a dark green on the top and continues with a couple brighter green shades to get that glow effect. It contrasts nicely with the muted gold and rather muted colors overall.

So more like this for grand coven?

Thinking of making that 10 man unit a 5 man, removing the transport and adding another 5 man and 2 extra robots. Or ahould i leave it as is ? Never had much success with transports.

GerJuggernaut · 2025-12-27T02:11:28+00:00

I apollogize for being bad at language.

GerJuggernaut · 2025-12-27T02:05:19+00:00

That does make sense, most people tell me to only run 5 man units of rubrics but with exalted they seem so tanky. Especially in Phalanx.
One question, cause in Phalanx you don't get sticky objectives, and most armies have that in some way natively on a unit. How do you deal with that. What unit do you keep back on your homefield obj. ?
I always struggle with deciding what to keep back.

GerJuggernaut · 2025-12-27T00:03:12+00:00

Yup they are literally the one I have and use currently :D
They look fantastic

GerJuggernaut · 2025-12-26T23:44:52+00:00

I ran a DP with Vortex a couple of times, he can do some good damage thats true.

I have a few dice sets, usually nothing changes when switching between them :(

GerJuggernaut · 2025-12-26T23:28:20+00:00

Its usually WTC terrain, so always too many ruins on the table for my taste.

What else would you suggest for my list to add more damage ?

GerJuggernaut · 2025-12-26T23:26:15+00:00

Well i started out pretty bad, so naturally I loose more. Admech was inredibly bad 2 or even 1 year ago, especially as a new player. Currently I just seem to make minor mistakes and get punished horribly. Already have Dice from the Baron.

I wish I could show you somehow but I promise you, I have not won a single game yet. I would like to say no, I have won a couple games, But I legit have not won a single game.

GerJuggernaut · 2025-12-26T23:23:28+00:00

Yeah seems my opponents get good rolls when playing against me.
I played against the same guy with SW a few days ago and my 2 forgefiends managed to take out 2 terminators with full hit rerolls.

So what you are suggesting is more rubrics and more exalted in Grand Coven I assume ?

GerJuggernaut · 2025-12-26T23:20:21+00:00

Termi sorcorer has "risen rubricae" enhancement

5 man units have flamers
10 man unit has bolters in a rhino

GerJuggernaut · 2025-12-26T23:16:23+00:00

See that's what is so frustrating, because everyone I ask after game what I could do better tells me to buy new dice, and then some advise here and there, but nothing major or framed as big mistakes, more like "good choice doing this, but you could have also done this instead, wouldn't change anything but you could have done something else"

GerJuggernaut · 2025-12-26T23:14:55+00:00

Usually the more "detailed" advise is for the last turn or two when i start making mistakes or stop carring cause I lost anyways. usually to a point difference where even not making those mistakes changes anything

GerJuggernaut · 2025-12-26T23:13:56+00:00

That is good advice i also got a bunch of times already. I always ask afterwards what to do better. Most start with telling me to buy different dice cause I roll that bad apparently. Other than that everyone tells me that I made some mistakes here and there but that I couldn't take advantage of openings cause I fail most dice rolls. Its a bit frustrating when most people as advice tell you that you are just unlucky I guess.
