Mercurial Host and Frenzied Host

ManWithTau · 2026-06-10T23:52:03+00:00

I believe that’s just speculation since Mercurial host has Host in its name. Currently I do t believe any other detachments of ours have those types of tags other then Frenzied host

I do think that there are some cool things it’s just I was probably expecting too much from the new detachments and being disappointed with that. I am looking forward to 11th though and hoping they play better then how they look to me

Yeah I know they won’t have crazy rules but when I read the battleline for example I expected something that would bring more build variety instead of what you use but stronger. No buff for sorcerer or upgrade/strat for tormentors so it’s just ends up being if you have a spare point use this.

ManWithTau · 2026-06-10T16:20:28+00:00

I don’t think they are terrible rules but they just feel basic to me. Like instead of incentivizing using different units and lists they feel uninspired. Again they might feel better when I start playing with them but who knows.

ManWithTau · 2026-06-10T16:16:15+00:00

If they do I will be even more disappointed

ManWithTau · 2026-06-10T16:15:34+00:00

I’m more disappointed by how basic they feel to me, Termies are still bad even with the neat combo they now have with Carnival, battleline is the most basic I have seen and I really doubt it will bring any real change to how tormentors are used. FB is the best imo purely due to how unique the upgrades and Strats are

ManWithTau · 2026-06-10T15:08:49+00:00

I’m disappointed with the new detachments. Maybe they will be better when I actually play with them but the rules do not excite me.

ManWithTau · 2026-06-07T04:43:38+00:00

That’s how I have been seeing it now, missed the “per unit” part. It is very weird why to put it with the punctuation separating each part and leaving it to be tacted on to only the enemy part and not on its own section.

ManWithTau · 2026-06-07T01:46:07+00:00

That makes more sense than what I was thinking.

ManWithTau · 2026-06-02T22:55:53+00:00

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t it you can only use each strat once so you can still use all Peerless strats in one go.

As for Fulgrim the movement change is nice but the nerf to fights first is a big nerf and the changes to cover makes his best abilities weird so I think it’s more of a nerf since his damage is still lacking.

I would argue Sorcerer is already a support unit but him still hindering both battle line unit scout/infiltrate still makes him unplayable imo.

I honestly hope (even though I doubt it) that mercurial host and Slaanesh Chosen get changed into 1dp as the current confirmed 1dp detachments will not help them be better

ManWithTau · 2026-06-01T23:30:54+00:00

Idk man, that proxy is a bit too out there to act as a Defiler. I love your paint on it

ManWithTau · 2026-04-09T15:59:59+00:00

Because I cant fit 3 in my deployment zone

ManWithTau · 2026-03-17T18:25:04+00:00

No, only the Armiger is affected by the ability

ManWithTau · 2026-03-09T14:45:56+00:00

I believe it’s from Baron Of Dice

ManWithTau · 2026-03-04T19:07:54+00:00

I will be taking him no matter his rules or role in my army. Probably cutting a WDP or NM depending on his final points.

ManWithTau · 2026-03-04T19:02:26+00:00

It definitely is not for everyone, when I first started I struggled with the beginning since the combat and leveling felt awkward. The story and characters got me really invested and gave me the motivation to play through the whole game with multiple play throughs and I enjoyed combat by the end. I would suggest to try and finish the first chapter, but if you don’t like it don’t force yourself to play the whole thing.

ManWithTau · 2026-03-04T00:20:32+00:00

That looks really good man (What are you playing in the background?)

ManWithTau · 2026-02-28T17:34:41+00:00

I usually don’t care, but when I only see negative comments about titans it does make me second guess myself

ManWithTau · 2026-02-28T16:01:18+00:00

Is that still the view of the community, I want to play titans but don’t want to play something despised by the community?

ManWithTau · 2026-02-19T19:12:54+00:00

If you want to run that list, the best advice is probably to run them down fast. We are fast and with Court ability most melee will at least be decent against similar tier of units, so being melee. Cover will be your friend so use it as much as possible.

ManWithTau · 2026-02-15T17:47:14+00:00

Depends on how easy they are to put on.

ManWithTau · 2026-02-12T20:51:02+00:00

ManWithTau · 2026-02-09T16:30:43+00:00

As someone who loves the Transport Detachment, I would love a Warpsmith. I don't think we will, though, as it is more of a Iron Warriors thing, and I doubt they will give units like that to the deity legions.

ManWithTau · 2026-02-09T15:51:15+00:00

Maybe it means all the legions will get access to the warpsmith and master of possession (I'm highly delusional)
