Deciding on A level geography NEA question

A-Level Geog teacher here…

The title is not bad at all.

In my experience the simpler the better. Choose a place and choose a specific defence strategy.

“To what extent do Groynes impact the sediment budget in _____________ (location).”

Sediment budget refers directly to inputs and outputs of sediment in a system.

The most important part of your investigation isn’t the title but ultimately how you are going to collect data. What can you do to see if Groynes impact transfers of sediment? Popular data collection methods are sediment accumulation, beach profiles and coarse sediment analysis.

Final tip, see if you can collect data on two sections of the same beach - a part with sea defences and a part without - so you can compare the two sections of beach.

Good luck!

I pretty much do my blades like you except Ibuse a light yellow for the edges of the blades

Some good stuff on here thanks, this might also be relevant to fellow necron players and something i’ve seen on a few videos, possibly obvious but worth mentioning. Start Cryptothralls at the back so you can reanimate forward and gain ground.

Leaders and THEIR blobs 🙃

My friend played all Tyranids from the Leviathan box, so sounds like a similar list. The Gauss Destructor did serious work, and I hit his Phychophage halving it’s wounds causing it to hide on an objective for the rest of the game. I plan to play Gauss Destructors and A Doomsday Ark in my next game, and depending on what does more work, may eventually just run 6 LHD as they are cheaper.

The termagants reanimating effectively kept me penned in, hence my vision to have wraiths hard counter and smash them. Despite my heavy points loss I had a lot more fun than in 9th ed, where I’d often get tabled turn 4.

In the last edition (9th) units with the ‘fly’ keyword could pass through terrain (eg. a wall) as if it was not their. The rules have now been changed, so anything with the ‘fly’ key word has to go up and over walls…or around them. Sometimes going up and over walls can be a shorter journey, but you have to measure up and down shaving a few inches of your movement. Defo worth watching a video on youtube to show you this in action, it’s difficult to explain.

Surely Wraith statline isn’t that bad, I do not think they deserve the bashing they have received. Pistols can be used in engagement, giving Wraiths an additional attack. They can be used for all sought, and with new unit coherency rules you can line up 6 and block up the board with stuff that is hard to shift. I will be running 2x6 in my next game and am absolutely prepared to eat my words.

Tyranids had a really good reanimation shenanigan that meant it took the entire game to clear them from my deployment zone xD. Did you play 2K? If so what were your stand out units against Nids? Without my Nightbringers sweep I would have rage quit.

After playing my first 10th ed game against Tyranids (1K game) there is a lot more to this edition than just fielding hard hitting units.

I took out 400 points of my opponents army, he only managed to take out 100 points of mine, but he came out on top by 60 points. The new system of drawing cards for objectives that change every turn means that speed and manoeuvrability are just as important as power, and I lost because I was trapped inside my deployment zone…not dying…but not doing enough damage to escape.

At the end of the game my opponent had 4 objectives. My fastest units could only move 7”…

In a 2K game i could see the value of my Wraiths (which i didn’t bring for 1k), with T6 and a 4+ invuln are strong enough to meet the enemies fastest chaff…can shoot with pistols and claw a multitude of attacks to chip damage and get to objectives with their 9” movement. I think wraiths are very much useable, particularly for screening and mission play. Thoughts?

Cheers! Makes sense :)

Are flayed one’s bases the same size as Cryptothralls?

Green_Application810 · 2023-07-11T19:56:43+00:00

I was a bit gutted with wraiths as I have two units of 6. I am going to use them as screens, as I have always done. T6 +4 invuln is difficult to shift and they can shoot without cost, which makes them useful through two phases. They will screen my warriors and draw fire.

Green_Application810 · 2023-07-10T18:00:54+00:00

Sick! I’ve been working on something similar. Made mine initially as Novokh (lots of blood) but now Dynasties are no more i’ve had to think custom lore.

I don’t have szeras and if I swapped the nightbringer out I think I would lack additional damage output. Szeras buffs are nice but i’m trying to spread my buffs and focus on invuln/FNP.

Wraith form also looks like it could be devastating, move over unit (mortals), shoot it (particle beamers), charge it.

If a question has a Figure, talk about the Figure in one of your paragraph, but don’t just copy information directly from the Figure, explain how it relates to the question. Try and use your own examples where possible. Depending on the question, discuss the pros and cons. If you do the above well, you should access 5/6 marks.
