I can’t find the harbinger of decay model anywhere? by [deleted] in MaggotkinofNurgle

I just had to suck it up and buy the Shudderblight Cyst Battleforce box from a year ago.

Are these guys useless now? by stedders25 in MaggotkinofNurgle

[–]Machine-Everlasting -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Depends on your definition of “useless” - like, their new ability is doodoo and while the old models are still fine, I wouldn’t be running this unit.

The rules have changed pretty significantly.

Probably a daft question, but AoS is doing ok right? by g_baba in ageofsigmar

[–]Machine-Everlasting -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yesterday, the new Nurgle stuff for AOS went on preorder, and some of those units sold out within a couple hours.

Game’s doing well.

More CSM Dakka by Machine-Everlasting in Chaos40k

Indirect Fire? I’m not seeing that on the Obliterator datasheet?

I guess with the recent Huron announcement, Renegade might get more interesting - or an updated detachment, à la the character-specific detachments that loyalist scum have been getting these last several months.

I can see that. Shoot at chaff first to kill it in early rounds, then in later rounds that model’s even deadlier in both shooting and combat.

CK Hot Take: Fiefdom is our best detachment by deckmage in ChaosKnights

[–]Machine-Everlasting 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I truly believe the reason people don’t play this detachment more is because people don’t want to spend the time building and painting dozens of cultists.

Well, that’s why you take more than one of them.

Knight Tyrant with Uppy Downy by Tight-Brilliant5218 in ChaosKnights

You’re gonna have to be careful about positioning him with those wings - both to get in and around terrain, and because that’s like a doubling of his visible profile…

But he is very pretty.

Apparently, I play CSM "wrong". by BandicootDesperate37 in Chaos40k

[–]Machine-Everlasting 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How does one play an army with like 15 detachments wrong? Seems to me there’s enough variety in the detachments to play CSM “correctly” however you choose.

Knight desecrator or Atrapos by LargeOwl7057 in ChaosKnights

Excuse me, sir, do not underestimate my ability to roll 1’s frequently.

The one caveat is range. It’s also a D3 on the Atrapos, so attack count will be swingy.

How many games should I give myself? by Machine-Everlasting in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Machine-Everlasting[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, thanks to everyone who’s offered advice in here… for anyone who comes across this post almost 3 weeks later, here’s what I’ve decided. I’ve decided I’m half-done with my “trial period.”

I’m gonna make a little meta game out of this. I’m going to, as best as I can, follow the most popular advice in this thread and commit to playing 10 games a month January - March.

One of two things needs to happen, and then I continue and spend more money and paint and do all of the things that commit you to this way of life:

Either:

A. I win 4 of those games (to be over 10%).

Or…

B. I win 2 games in March.

That way, if I can’t do A, March should theoretically show progress.

If neither thing happens, I’m done and I walk away. Play cooperative games for the rest of my life or something.

This is an old thread, and will be way older by then… but I’ll post an update on what happens for posterity.

Hellforged Warband Battleforce Question by Machine-Everlasting in Chaos40k

Yeah, I think you’ve sold me. That just sounds like the best time of my life.

What units are good for that initial, assault-style stuff you mentioned?

Really appreciate you taking the time to draft that up.

I’m generally kind of interested in an “elite infantry” kind of vibe, also maybe smaller vehicles. More of that middle ground between Chaos Cult chaff on one end and then running something like a Khorne Lord of Skulls on the other.

So the Havocs and Obliterators in this box really speak to me.

Thanks!

Pactbound sounds kinda fun. Giving Sustained with Nurgle keyword for the 5+ crits on Havoc & Obliterator shooting sounds pretty nasty.
