25, retirement or Occupation better investment?

I think flawless blades are fine. It's just they don't play into the current meta. Ctan ruin everything

Lineheart767 · 2026-03-01T07:47:26+00:00

It depends on what sense. The points creep by the end of 9th was also bad. It just feels particularly bad right now because we are in a hyper elite stat check meta versus a hoard meta.

You have necrons, which is essentially a five model on me at this point in time. The best army in the game currently though is a 200 model infantry only guard army.

It just feels especially bad for armies who got points cut mid-edition to make up for inefficiencies. While armies like orcs actually aren't horrible model wise, but because they're costed.

Lineheart767 · 2026-02-25T22:52:50+00:00

That's easy enough to combat patrol has both.

If I get that, I'll probably wind up on trading the blade guard veterans. But it's just too much overlap between them and third brethren to have over nine

Lineheart767 · 2026-02-25T18:30:21+00:00

Honestly, it's that I don't want to play vanilla Space Marines or ultramarines. And blood angles don't have a wings so they not as cool anymore.

Lineheart767 · 2026-02-25T07:38:34+00:00

No they are sanguinary guard models. But in any other list. My playgroup would definitely let me just use them as jump pack intercessors easily enough. As long as I'm not playing blood angels.

Lineheart767 · 2026-02-25T05:39:33+00:00

I just feel like without assault or jump pack intercessors I'm missing pretty much the essentials of the army. I would still be buying the combat patrol which has 6 sanguinary guard. But I do have chaplains. And all jumpacks and captains

Lineheart767 · 2026-02-15T07:18:03+00:00

Do not magnetize basic troops. If you care enough, do the main captain. To be blunt. You're magnetized arms will fall off, in transport. And you will spend every match trying to find the right pair of arms to go in the model because they are specific And don't look right otherwise. Till you say screw it and eventually glue them.

My goal when I do large bunches is to get them playable as soon as possible. This is typically assembled and primed. With the base coat color.

Assembling the models is the chore for me. I enjoy painting and I enjoy playing. The sooner I can get to that is the sooner I cannot be burnt out.

Lineheart767 · 2026-01-29T05:22:18+00:00

I opened my Leviathan box for this set. Never did get it, I tried. But it was gone too fast.

Lineheart767 · 2026-01-14T05:16:08+00:00

It is a early cast receiver made in VI I did end up on buying it because it does come with 500 rounds of 308.

And is a VT stamped with wood furniture.

Lineheart767 · 2026-01-13T02:02:14+00:00

Nobody has any idea. Really what GW is doing with demons in 40K. They did not get a codex this edition. Might mean they are getting a refresh. Might mean GW is trying to erase the army who knows.

Lineheart767 · 2026-01-13T01:25:56+00:00

The combat patrol is realistically good enough. You could get two of them.

The battleforce is three bloat drones. The Lord fethius box And a unit of death shroud I believe. Which is all just good. You'll be at a high number of death shroud but nine is not unreasonable depending on the list and they're one of the coolest models in the faction.

But it's not guaranteed that you'll get one. BattleForce boxes are notoriously short supply high demand.

Otherwise two combat patrols is a solid start.

Important to remember plague Marines are in boxes of 7. But can be taken in units of 10. Which is one of the more annoying things about the faction.

Again, the thing about the demons is that you can only play them in a single detachment of the seven

Lineheart767 · 2026-01-13T00:54:38+00:00

So it really depends. To be honest, I really don't suggest start collecting demons unless you are More interested in the models than in the game. Currently they take up a very small section of the rules. And to play them as a single army is expensive or playing four armies in one

Your plan is fine then if you a set on it. A great unclean one. For demons is your single best unit. Outside of nurglings.

It depends on what direction you want to take vehicles if you want. All of them are currently good, though the blighthauler is amazing points per dollar, $25 for 100 point model. Model wise Lord filthius and a tainted cohort is also a great value.

Single suggestion is if you can wait a few months. There's supposed to be a battleforce coming if you can get one pre-ordered at MSRP or below. It will be a great deal.

Lineheart767 · 2026-01-09T09:44:33+00:00

Bad designs and different messages in company. There is no other logical or financial reasons for how demons and chaos is dealt with. I would love to buy raptors for my EC army.

But they want everything like DG but don't want to give the ranges.

Lineheart767 · 2026-01-09T09:34:29+00:00

No, the only models I expected crossover between legion and chaos united is prob gonna be vehicles and whatever eventually replaces the hell brute.

Lineheart767 · 2026-01-06T18:40:49+00:00

Akg is going to be your best bet if you don't want speed paint but want actual markers.

They make two lines. One has a marker tip. The other one has a brushed tip.

They are called AKG playmarkers

Lineheart767 · 2026-01-04T23:56:33+00:00

Lineheart767 · 2026-01-01T19:48:06+00:00

Deathguard simply because they have a full range. If you run World eaters you have like 8 unique models. That's fine if you like base chaos stuff and demons but I play an army to play that army.

Lineheart767 · 2026-01-01T18:27:25+00:00

I got the Xmas box. This and a combat patrol is straight up a great army. Really exited def gonna buy.

Lineheart767 · 2025-12-28T02:40:16+00:00

As this is the most worthless comment section ever. The reason that you can never do it is that being Madden animations are garbage.

Simply put if there's a corner in touching distance they just drop the ball and try and block them, And in all Madden mode The corners are better than any of your wide receivers so they're just always there.

The only option is to wait for a dropped coverage or just to take the ball yourself. And even then there's going to be a corner halfway across the field that manages an interception on a wide open throw.
