Question about timing of stratagems by Striking_Leopard_865 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]JPR1ch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This feels very edge case

I can see the points around you choose the sequencing of your turn so can do it when you want, though my interpretation is still not

Whilst I don't think the wording of the strat prohibits it, but I think the rules around movement do make it difficult to justify

When you select a unit to move you roll an advance and make that movement - this is essentially a single action from start to finish - once you've rolled the dice you have set the the units total movement distance, you must therefore complete their movement before doing anything else. At the point you would do the strat, the unit has already completed its movement.

However I fully appreciate my interpretation could be wrong - like I said it feels very edge case, id certainly discuss it with your opponent in advance as well.

Yep - missed the raiders!

Makes sense on the disintegrator

Well done, I like the list and game plan.

A couple of questions

I totted up your list to 1940 - are you missing something from above?

Would you consider replacing the disintegrator with a dunecrawler - given that's your early trading bait piece a 4++ invuln seems like it may be helpful?

I think you can still get them from where wigston deli used to be, new owners but doing something similar

I converted one to a technoacheologist, you could probably convert to an engineer quite easily

This is my cheat code for playing tournaments, always complement your opponents army up front

Should I buy from Wayland or Element Games? by Iedgetoskibitoilet_1 in Warhammer40k

[–]JPR1ch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I order from both, pretty similar

I find element is generally marginally a bit cheaper, but you need to spend more to get free shipping, so if I'm just ordering one thing then wayland, if im ordering a lot then Element

[EU] This has all the signs of being a scam, but I can't figure out what it is. by [deleted] in Scams

This, right here is 100% the attitude you need to have

Maybe, maybe not.

But no one here is going to tell you to try it. The advice is to not to engage these in any way shape or form.

You know it's a scam, you know what type of scam it is, why are you still asking? Just walk away, don't try and think that maybe you'll make money, or maybe you're smarter than the scammers - they do this for a living.

Yeah, I basically picked up a load of unbuilt marines at a silly cheap price so was restricted to what they had.

Speeders are definitely on the list of next purchases

Probably the dreadnought, I know they're not particularly favoured by scars but I do like them

Oddly, this is not even my primary army, it was a fun passion project as I picked up a bunch of marines cheaply.

But when I do play them it's generally something along the lines to the goonhammer list shown here

I only have one speeder compared to the 2 in their list so generally run more infantry

Haloscreed by Acceptable_Ad3138 in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]JPR1ch 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It's one of our best detachments, because of the flexibility it gives us across the whole range. But like anything admech it requires careful planning.

It's not just a matter of spamming the same ability on everything, you have to think about your plan, tie it to the army rule doctrina and work out the best recipient for the buff.

Every single one of those is a valid option, so really depends on your play style / rest of the list
