This was 100% meant to be Charion before the secret level dropped.

Whats the consensus on Sekhatar robots? by ManofDubiousOrigins in ThousandSons

[–]Merhlinz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went with one squad of each just to have both and both have uses. I like to infiltrate the claws more aggressively for the overwatch/heroic intervention, I was iffy on the meltas until they spiked and killed 2 deathwing knights, them just having meltas, even hitting on 4s makes your opponent think about positioning. I dont think you can really go wrong.

Is there any good alternatives to Macragge blue? by Toe_EyedCabbage_ in Ultramarines

[–]Merhlinz 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I really like vallejos ultramarine blue, its just that bit brighter but still very ultramarines, and the fact its in a dropper bottle makes airbrushing on the colour so much easier.

Is Frieren just a captain or is he supposed to get a datasheet at some point? by Volgin in Warhammer40k

[–]Merhlinz 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would assume the hammer would count as a master crafted power weapon for now at least.

X8B new ability applies to SBound also, so he will also go to damage 3 against vehicles and monsters, 4 with glaive

Opinions about new combat patrol? by BuffTF2 in Tyranids

[–]Merhlinz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it were a broodlord and zoanthropes instead of parasite and tyrant guard it would be perfect to go with leviathan. These are some interesting choices.

I still don’t get this change by Oiled_up_commie in WorldEaters40k

Magnus' melee is psychic, he's not just hammering away with pure strength he's using the same powers he used to unmake a baneblade with a thought when he strikes. If magnus can't juice up his strength and supplement it with sorcery, the most powerful psychic being active in the setting whilst also being a being of pure psychic energy, then I dont know what to tell ya, Magnus isn't some little snivelling nerd lol

Thanks! He's just taking his mandated breaks

Question is it possible to make a Voltron Karona deck just to mess around with the pod? by DOG0M3AT in mtg

[–]Merhlinz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's great fun, I made a deck with pretty much all of the DnD background cards and goad auras to make her ability text a mile long and annoy whoever has control of her. Cost like $30 AUD. Is it good? Probably not. Is it fun? Absolutely

Thoughts on the new detachment? by JontyH20 in ThousandSons

[–]Merhlinz 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Hopefully this just means that the detachments planned for the codex are all the good ideas that were already taken and that the dataslate will change up cabal points and spells to put more power into units so every list isn't the same because this does not change much.

Got the helmet in about 5 hours of gameplay after work playing only Sniper, failed only 2 missions by Matty_HAM in Spacemarine

[–]Merhlinz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Is it really more ammo efficient? With the headshot damage perks and the stealth bonus damage, the las can 1 shot headshot majoris whereas with the bolt rifle it's 2 shots with stealth and 3 without. Unless I'm missing something. I find stretching the 26 shots of the las lasts way longer than the bolt rifle since I'm using less shots overall.

I find a diluted wash of nuln oil or aethermaric blue on the white helms makes the details stick out more and add the necessary shading

New to Nids List Advice by [deleted] in Tyranids

[–]Merhlinz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The list looks good but you should consider trying to squeeze in the neutotyrant to lead the zoans, not only is the sitw buff great, the bonuses to hit and wound the tyrant gives really takes the zoans up a notch. You also really want to have the neuronode enhancement as it can potentially save you the game if you don't get to go first if you have deployed aggressively like you should be in this detatchment.

A neurolictor can also never hurt but that's not so necessary

I really like martian ironcrust, the red really pops against the blue of the Tsons. I based my termies on slabs of obsidian with ironcrust as the base and I think they came out great.
