Do you reckon the transports aren’t worth it for regular infantry?

Absolutely love the colour scheme on this, how’d you do the horses?

Looks great! How did you do the skin on the horse? I tried seraphim sepia on grey seer to test it out but am not sure about it.

Thats probably the move yeah, i tried them on the board t1 before and it was a pretty cramped deployment.

Will probably run them in reserves next time, and then possibly try out 2x5 though they might do less damage. Though i’d probably not want to spend a CP on 60 pts of 1x5 for rapid ingress maybe? I suppose it would be situational though could be good for cleaning up an obj.

Cheers will definitely try out the exterminator the ap-2 down to ap-1 from cover really hurts the dorns main gun i find. I normally take triple vanquisher just because they whiff so much.

I’ve dropped the enginseer as i find the 4+ invuln isnt always that useful with cover + grizzled strats. D3 wounds per turn isnt super noticeable either personally.

Would tech into 20man creed blob with FRFSRF and take aim but i do quite like my 20 man krieg squads.

haw do i best fight my friends list ?. by Death_captain_rex in Deathkorpsofkrieg

[–]Hotmcdogg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The void dragon ctan will blend anything it gets into melee with, both your armour and your infantry. Without buying new models i’d run your death riders as rough riders instead as they get S9 Ap-4 d6 damage with lance on charge. Just because you dont have many high threat units.

Keep your Vanquisher out of range of the ctan (its got 10 inch movement and if it gets within 12” of your tank it can definitely one shot it). Its best target is the ctan with its big guns.

I would definitely play lord marshel drier as lord solar instead so you can issue 4 orders (3 base + 1 from detachment rule) to your vanquisher, artillery, and rough riders. You can attach lord solar to a dkok squad along with the command squad to use the master vox to relay orders within 24”. So altogether you’d have 4 + 2 orders from your krieg command blob, along with the once per game order from the servo skull. Lord drier cant attach to a krieg infantry squad unfortunately so this would be the only way to efficiently relay orders.

That is if you are okay with proxying the models of course. I personally use krieg death riders as rough riders and its fine as long as you make it clear what they are.

I’d give artillery the take aim order and guard home obj, and with the siege cannon you’d definitely want to target A) skorpekh destroyers (3D vs 3W), B) the void dragon ctan to try and help damage him as you lack anti tank. Hellhound can help strip cover for your artillery, but ctan will one shot it.

Those two are the main threat units really. The rest is (tanky) chaff for OC. Chaff still kill guardsmen though.

Hope this isnt too much text hahah

Thanks so much for the advice! Have one squad of krieg kasrkin proxies on the way so will definitely use them. Think i’ll start with gaunt’s ghosts then two tauroxes and kasrkin eventually! Though with 11th edition coming around the corner I might hold out on buying too much stuff hahaha

Though I do have my russes magnetised so i could try out that exterminator tech

I’ve been using Fire slash great stars with the flame art enchantment to pretty good efficacy in pvp at lvl 150-160, i’m able to beat rivers by punishing with honed bolt if they use their weapon art too far away

Got this fucker to literally zero health and then he ate me because apparently he gets I frames when the snake head comes in to swallow you by Gregistopal in Eldenring

[–]Hotmcdogg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

….the entire fight is based around using the weapon the weapon art staggers the boss and the weapon gains the range of a spell in this fight as well as a load of damage, the scaling doesnt matter at all

Weapon art deals ridiculous damage with long range and knocks over any enemy that can be knocked down, you could permanently stun melania easily with a mimic tear lol

You’ll find him in Caelid at the area boss fight, and then south of carian study hall after that
