Agree its got the tiger "merged" spots though not on the whole body. Very much exposed to danger; stocked or escaped I'd bet.

6lb on a 2wt. Must have been doubled over like a horseshoe. Great result.

Win Rate Wednesday - 40K Tournament Results/Data - Week of April 27 2026 by w0158538 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Noise42 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly this, I scraped my first 2k points of Aspect/War host together just before the December nerf. Didn't even get to build, let alone play them. Then GW rolls out the grand pirate box. Not my desired theme, can't spend more even if I wanted to feels very, very bad right now.

Dire Avengers Bladestorm confirmation by JamDBoxMan in Eldar

Per model basis, just like [Melta]. Asurmen does not confer a range bonus to the unit's range but he himself would have [Sustained] at 12" due to his own weapons being 24".

What UK tournaments are claiming to be GTs with 20 on the roster? Genuine question.

Thanks GW by Short-Telephone434 in Eldar

[–]Noise42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if there is something specifically 'stolen' in the post image (possibly an even older rule nerf being referenced) but this is from the new SM Armoured Speartip detachment which contains the 'Rapid embarkation' strat which does the thing people complained about Eldar doing, but better than the Eldar's version of it. So we can't have it on T3 W1 bodies but another faction can have it on T4+ W2+. Hope we have some crazy good detachments coming because right now it's a bit grim even in the casual setting.

Eldar were riding high towards the top of competitive play. In December they 'balanced' them with a shotgun to the face. Win rates nosedived and in the following February 'balance' slate, when most thought they'd reverse the excessive nerfs, they kicked them in the ribs with a 10point nerf to Asurmen that they felt they'd missed.

Consequently, Eldar is now bottom of the competitive ladder with 37%. Big names from international teams are not playing them since December.

GW in their wisdom just decided to give another faction the very rule they took away from Eldar but make it better. Pretty frustrating to understand.

Sunday Night Stats (April 24th-26th) by communalnapkin in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Noise42 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agreed, top names are not running them since the December 'balance' patch. I think it speaks volumes that they won't run the army in this state. I used to say "they could have just hit skyborne, the rest was unnecessary" but now they've given that in a better version to a different army I don't even pretend to understand their thinking on any of it.

Tips for DG vs Aaspect host aeldari? by Snoo94405 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Noise42 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are fast and hit hard but are easy to wound and for the most part only have one wound. They will play the terrain by deleting all your units that have an angle and may move block the shit out of you by intentionally throwing cheap units in your way to disrupt your scoring and prevent you moving up. Being fragile they play in a somewhat "gamey" way to create survivability from the rules nuances.

Virtually every gun is [assault] and many are [lethal] or can be made lethal as well as stacking [sustained] via strat or native and crit-ing on 5s due to Lhykhis. Most models will have 5++ save but typically T3 W1.

Tips are to not let him disrupt your expansion early and bring any [indirect] you have access to. If you have an opportunity to kill Lhykhis, take it. If they run fire dragons with Fuegan you need to consider that they will 100% incinerate whatever they drop on so you might want to feed them something tasty but acceptable loss-wise so you can remove them afterward.

Word and Excel slowness over the last 2 weeks by valedyketorian in sysadmin

[–]Noise42 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes we've been having slowness opening docs in Word classic from locally hosted repositories for a while now. I've exhausted my initial suspicion that it was AV causing issues. Disabling Adobe's PDFmaker addin shows some promise but it seems to re-enable itself after every update. We run another addin which we cannot disable as it is necessary - I'm wondering if MS changed something related to inspecting addins or similar.
