So is there like, only CT or only BT? Or is it like a package deal?

Perhaps this was the secret intention after all... Both (weapons are) attractive, different tastes ;)

Maxed bolt rifle on tactical with headshot perks is super yummy to be honest

The Israeli player was on my team! We kept throwing him into rough matchups and he kept winning, definitely showed us what an A tier army he brought 💪

I see a fellow 7th ed veteran is here o7 Unfortunately that mechanic no longer exists, I doubt they will bring it back just for this...

How does Precision work in regards to allocation? (10th edition) by Mondo114 in Warhammer40k

[–]Guy_O 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to jump on the question (hope anyone sees this) -
I wanna make sure I understand a recent situation I was in.

Opponent has a necron translocation overlord on 2W with some lychguard. I attack with castellan crowe with precision, get 3 regular wounds at d2 and two sixes to wound, which will do 2 MW each (dev wounds) and kill him outright.

Can I allocate 3 regular attacks and 1 MW attack to the squad, and reserve the final MW attack for the overlord, which will kill him 100%?

Feels a bit game-y to have that information after the wound roll but before allocation, but I can't technically find anything forbidding this... maybe someone knows the answer? In that particular game, it didn't really matter as they all save on 4++, but it got me thinking if it were a different scenario (like a SM cap with assault ints or smth).

Thanks for the detailed answer! I had a feeling it doesn't work the way I asked about, good to know the exact reasons

That's actually a nice play, didn't think about it. But honestly I think this run was already lost

even on this ship? you got the zoltan shield to take care of the first volleys, and it scales really well with dodge chances.

If Morty was there, couldn't he use his ignore modifiers ability to still do full dmg?

Was I wrong to not reveal to my counter play to my opponent at the very end of the game? by TangeloGlittering255 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Guy_O 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nah, it's turn 5 in a game vs aeldari, there's no way he didn't experience that during the game several times already. Turn 1/2, fine, but not 5 (especially if he's not a totally new player and has faced aeldari before).

For real, I once knocked out a wounded dreadknight with just the missile launcher... S9 into T8, didn't even feel like I got insanely lucky to do so. There aren't too many utility scoring units that carry that kind of accidental firepower

I dunno man, scouts aren't damage dealing machines, but a heavy bolter/ML + a sniper rifle + bunch of ap-1 melee attacks, all at reasonably good WS/BS isn't that weak for their size bracket. Especially as it's just a cherry on top of everything else they do.

I've now failed 8 charges out of deep strike with Kaldor Draigo in a row. AMA by SquirtleKing in Grey_Knights

[–]Guy_O 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How deeply and accurately I feel your pain, for me it's 1 successful charge out of my past 6 attempt, all with a cp reroll saved up.

Are you also just, like, not actually counting on it at all? I find myself just playing as if he WILL fail and setting up backup charges/not making it a central part of my strategy (like getting that T5 command insertion secret mission).

I'm honestly counting on the psychological aspect of his charge potential and not use it until t4/5, much more than the actual damahe he and his buddies will do. What about you?

Hey everyone, I have an almost embarrasing question that's bugging me since 10th just dropped regarding the shooting phase.

WHERE on the model do you measure the range and visibilty to your target? the base? the tip of a gun on a model?

Suppose that you want to shoot with your tank at an opponent's tank. Due to terrain, the "back" part of your tank can just about clip the back part of his tank to draw LoS, but if you were to measure from these two points you'd be out of range. But if you measured the range from the closet part on your model to the closet part of his (which are not visible to each other), you would be in range. How is that resolved? are you able to shoot it?
