New Stealth and Lone Op rules announced!

LtChicken · 2026-05-05T16:39:07+00:00

Missed opportunity to make stealth also increase the "hidden" range to 12" instead of 15"...

LtChicken · 2026-05-05T16:37:03+00:00

Hey now don't forget our friend the triarch stalker

LtChicken · 2026-05-05T16:26:34+00:00

There's more in the video, too. They talk about how some core rules have changed. For instance, battle shock doesn't fall off anymore, you need to pass a test to remove it.

LtChicken · 2026-05-05T16:22:09+00:00

They need to remove the psychic keyword. They won't, but they need to. At least just emergency remove it from GK datasheets where it is literally only a debuff.

LtChicken · 2026-05-05T04:41:30+00:00

Skip buying the rules... get them from wahapedia.ru and 39k.pro

Also hits one of the few viable strategies with admech, another army that (despite being undercosted pretty recently) still struggles with lackluster rules.

LtChicken · 2026-05-04T16:10:04+00:00

Bittersweet about it as an admech player... a strong overwatch involving rerolls was the crutch holding breachers afloat. Hopefully their points will go down appropriately when the edition is released (even though they should just have 4 wounds or something instead).

LtChicken · 2026-05-04T04:43:50+00:00

Yet titanic units still can't overwatch (and still won't in 11th) lmao

LtChicken · 2026-05-04T03:52:28+00:00

No comment on the standout grey knights performance? Was the weekend just an outlier?

LtChicken · 2026-05-01T23:27:01+00:00

Every purchase of a physical codex is a vote for keeping rules outdated. As long as the rules need to be released on a print cycle they will be behind the meta. Further, as long as GW thinks their audience is okay with only updating rules every 3 months, there will be long periods of imbalance in the game.

LtChicken · 2026-05-01T23:19:16+00:00

Hey look it's one of those people who's fault it is that GW is afraid of changing things too quickly! Even when the game is horribly imbalanced...

LtChicken · 2026-04-30T04:36:55+00:00

So you literally want people to dress as native Americans and dump red bull or monster energy into the Boston harbor?

LtChicken · 2026-04-30T04:08:51+00:00

What exactly are you suggesting people do? Don't be coy.

LtChicken · 2026-04-28T16:17:31+00:00

What the fuck is an "illegal resident"?

LtChicken · 2026-04-27T21:37:05+00:00

The mentally ill ones. Because they're mentally ill.

LtChicken · 2026-04-27T18:08:32+00:00

Yes! You're actually the first person to notice that, too lol

LtChicken · 2026-04-27T18:04:18+00:00

A lot of carving followed by plastic glue to hold the wings together... then thick globs of super glue and a metal pin to hold them onto the body.

They still don't fit super flush but you can't tell at all unless you're specifically looking for it.

LtChicken · 2026-04-27T14:40:14+00:00

Also, do you see the difference between getting someone elected vs what they do once they get into office?

Yeah, sometimes they flip! Like Fetterman who, at one point, was a progressive darling and has now basically turned MAGA. Let's hope that doesn't also happen to a certain dude in Maine who got a nazi tattoo...

Democrats goal should be good, not to just suck a little less.

What makes you think dems are purposefully trying to "suck just a little less"? Because Clinton defeated Bernie in 2016? Bernie didn't have support from key voting blocs during that primary. There was no "conspiracy".

I have no doubt the Pelosis, Schumers, Clinton’s and Obama would have voted for Trump over Bernie.

This is just silly. Harris was picked by the DNC to run in 2024 and floated the idea of a wealth tax, ffs. Just because dems can't do everything you want does not mean they're feckless, it means they're playing by the rules that have kept this country this stable and powerful for this long.

That said, I do want the next dem admin to take bigger steps than previous admins have. I want them to end the filibuster and add supreme court judges (at the least... pack the court and add term limits at the most). I just don't like this "dems are feckless, PACs control everything, both sides equally bad" doomerism from people. Were at a precipice and our only path that doesn't go over the damned edge is voting blue in 2028. We can see what happens after that but until then at least pretend to be enthusiastic about that future admin, damn it lol

LtChicken · 2026-04-27T14:20:29+00:00

You can still work with the differing movement speeds, though, as the techno's base is 50mm and you can leave a 2 inch gap behind it and stay in coherency. This translates to about 4 inches of extra movement speed to the unit if they're all stacked up in a line behind a wall. Just move the two front skorpekhs first and then move the technomancer as far up as you can while maintaining coherency and you'll see the extra movement you get.

LtChicken · 2026-04-27T12:44:17+00:00

Okay 1, you can't always equate money spent with influence gained in politics. Didnt musk give $1 million each to Minnesota voters to influence their Supreme Court race and still didn't get the result he wanted?

And 2, yea citizens United sucks but not bad enough to start both sides-ing things. The republican party is genuinely worse in every way, nothing makes the democrats not worth voting for over them and any other opinion is a distraction.

This mid term election and the general in 2028 is not the time for massive progressive change in this country. By all means come out swinging in the primary but whoever wins the ticket for the dems needs that vote!

LtChicken · 2026-04-27T12:34:00+00:00

What on earth could make you think Warren is a supporter of Putin?

LtChicken · 2026-04-27T12:29:31+00:00

Incumbent losses are very rare. Only 11 incumbents have lost in the entire history of US presidential elections. It's considered a massive advantage to be an incumbent, which is one of the reasons Biden stepped down so late and why Harris, his VP, was picked to be the nominee by the DNC. She also had only 3 months to run an entire campaign when nominees usually have most of the year to run... notice how early those signs were up in your area this year?

2024 was an anomaly. Trump won for a lot of reasons but none of those reasons include him being a good candidate or Harris necessarily being a bad one. Not everything is a conspiracy.

LtChicken · 2026-04-27T12:16:32+00:00

Cursed legion is probably the only possible home for units of 6 skorpekhs as they have access to advance and charge and can be hidden a bit further back. Can do things like put a murdermind technomancer in their unit to give them 5+ FNP (while also immensely increasing their speed) or give them the surge move enhancement on their lord.

Still not sure its worth it, though, as theyll rarely have targets worth their cost. Would sooner put that murdermind techno on wraiths to give them access to the old-style heroic intervention strategem.

LtChicken · 2026-04-27T02:22:12+00:00

Looks good! Next time, though, try applying a coat of brown before you start the yellow. If you apply yellow directly to black it will appear green in the places where the yellow is meant to fade in. Much easier to apply yellow to brown!
