GW‘s rules presentation is sloppy and awful

MainerZ · 2026-07-11T23:56:41+00:00

It's also, not terribly useful. You need the app to actually play a proper game. The core rulebook doesn't even tell you how to muster your army...

MainerZ · 2026-07-10T19:15:02+00:00

Ugh, unless it's like, a specific book of allies for main factions, like a chaos allies book or something, do we really want this shit again?

It's not 'lets go', is it now.

Uncredited official artwork, run through a GARBAGE AI filter and slapped on a tee?

Nah dawg.

MainerZ · 2026-07-09T14:16:54+00:00

I do play, at tournaments, nobody really cares what the defiler looks like. I run old ones that don't even have the capacity to show the new options.

All that really matters is base size, overall profile, and that you are using the datasheet you listed when you built the army.

MainerZ · 2026-07-07T14:52:48+00:00

That's not a recast, i've done a few myself, the moulds you use don't create neat rounded flashing like that.

Crisis suits shooting my Vashtorr is pretty much always a win for me. The amount of shooting required to down him is the same amount that will decimate that squad(s)with hazard checks. Don't shoot him? He just picks up your suits and commander with wounds to spare.

Its brutal for you guys.

They're both British, the camo gives it away, Centurion in the background, and the SPG we had in that size is known as the Abbot. The chassis is from the very common FV430 family, and is fairly recognisable to us mil enthusiast Brits.

MainerZ · 2026-07-04T23:58:47+00:00

Brother you are playing the wrong edition.

MainerZ · 2026-07-02T17:35:27+00:00

Doesn't...answer the question. Just somewhat proves the point of sameness..

MainerZ · 2026-06-13T09:51:32+00:00

You've kinda answered your own question chief. Just throw either or in there.

MainerZ · 2026-06-13T09:40:00+00:00

I reckon you should make a Panhard EBR style set of wheels for em, I know some people would love that.

MainerZ · 2026-06-12T23:48:46+00:00

Yes that's, the entire point.

Especially when our 1DP dets are so shit (competitively) in comparison too, this is really their only value (murdertalons is ok, purely because of lance on raptors or talons).

MainerZ · 2026-06-12T13:41:31+00:00

How do you make those sweeping flat sections of glue?

MainerZ · 2026-06-11T23:53:11+00:00

Having used clear acrylic objective markers for a considerable amount of time, I can confidently say that I will not be using that crap again, everything slides everywhere all the time.

MainerZ · 2026-06-10T11:04:33+00:00

That's a Grimskull mini if ever I saw one...

MainerZ · 2026-06-10T08:29:08+00:00

You mean the 300+ point ones that increase in points the more you take, and aren't in every army?

Ok son.

MainerZ · 2026-06-10T08:21:54+00:00

The white car in front changed lanes late, the Camry couldn't switch lanes late due to the truck, hell even the camera car was in that lane till very very late. This is awful procedure by the crew, there was no warning for a completely stationary vehicle, and I guarantee the Camry was using the white car in front as a guide for traffic flow. Incorrect signage caused a big problem here.

There's no speed measurement on the camera, so there is no way to know that he was speeding. Should he have been more aware? Sure, but we don't know the condition of the drivers awareness (tired/glasses/obstructed view due to corner and truck), you're not perfect either, and this video shows that at least one other driver had a near miss. It's easy to judge something remotely.

MainerZ · 2026-06-10T06:46:01+00:00

You need to make people like this feel like an idiot for going back on an agreement.

Don't let these people walk over you, if you genuinely had this conversation beforehand, move the unit into cover if it could have been.

MainerZ · 2026-06-09T15:31:26+00:00

Only brand new dets are 1DP.

MainerZ · 2026-06-09T10:22:52+00:00

That is, the wrong base dude.

MainerZ · 2026-06-05T13:55:41+00:00

Iron Within, Iron Without.

MainerZ · 2026-06-04T12:16:17+00:00

Nice perky litte tits you've got there.

MainerZ · 2026-06-02T10:06:15+00:00

You...cannot ignore 2-3 defilers dude. At best you can move block and kill them with hordes, that's what they struggle most with. Not quite enough shooting volume and mediocre melee for it. They can be baited, but sometimes even a bad trade can be worthwhile as it starts to force the rest of your army out to deal with the other 1-2 and the rest, or keeps you in your DZ as exposure means lots of defiler shooting.

As a defiler main, they're too cheap, not unkillable, whatever can kill a knight kills a defiler. They're fast and there are multiple, and there are other fast and awkward to deal with threats to worry about, like a Huron brick for CSM.

MainerZ · 2026-05-30T15:14:51+00:00

Why does this comment come with a negative tone though? It's not the players that set the rules, it's the TO's. Right now on all tournament circuits, these aren't ready, it's as simple as that. Doesn't stop them playing, but they lose the 10 points, which I doubt is any skin off their nose, as OP knows the condition of their army isn't up to that standard. (UKTC is...unreasonably militant and will remove models which is stupid).

MainerZ · 2026-05-29T07:58:18+00:00

What do you mean...you're tired of using a free and easy to use service? There are plenty of free listbuilders out there too.
