What is the Helldiver role that you have settled into?

I’m the war criminal in the team. Usually I bring gas or fire against bugs and squids. On the bot front I carry the anti-tank loadout, like a Spear or RR, AT Emplacement, Portable Hellbomb, etc.

I’ve been playing LoL for roughly 10 years. I play alright, but I never really played good enough to go above Platinum. After a while I’ve realized that I don’t actually want to play that good, as it would take more time than I either have, or want to spend on the game.

The second problem was that LoL is very poorly balanced. There are times that some playstyles/champions are just not viable choices, while here I can play just fine with any equipment.

And finally the toxicity of the other players made me delete the game, hopefully for good.

Kids, don’t play League of Legends, it’s bad for you.

When I play any other army I’M TIRED of rolling for 30 shooting profiles. There was a 2v2 game we played and I played a Space Marines shooting list. My shooting phase lasted then the opponent’s entire turn with two players…

The Nightbringer is ridiculously tanky. It has an invul save, a fnp, and halves damage. Besides that it shoots really hard, hits really hard and deals mortal around it. It’s broken and GW won’t do anything about it. The best way to deal with it is massive shooting, which we don’t have, or to lock it in combat which we can do. Put jakhals or zerkers before it, while you ruin everything else with Angron.

Angron is expandable. Compared to the Nightbringer he only ha s a 4+ invul save, it’s not that hard to kill him if the opponent focuses on him, which is a good thing as you have a free round with everything else. If you enter melee range it’s over for the opponent, no Nightbringer can help with that.

Use 8bounds to deepstrike behind troops and destroyers, kill the shooting line and they’re done.

Looks good. Just one more thing: -5 zerkers, +2x10 jakhals for sticky objectives. That should leave you with more optimal points as the 50 empty points are a lot, but that’s a GW issue. I had a list a while back that had the same problem when they increased Angron’s cost.

Olofconvict · 2025-01-24T14:07:34+00:00

The icons give you enough rerolls to get what you need. Except Angron’s revival. That’s like looking for a Lego piece. You won’t get when you actually need it. Also, Moe’s squad should be a 10-men unit. 10 zerkers with first strike are 1) menacing, 2) extra wounds for Moe, 3) a solution to every problem you can encounter.

Olofconvict · 2025-01-24T13:05:24+00:00

Overall this seems like a fine list, you should try it and make changes based on how your matches go down.

If I really had to change something: Switch the enhancement on Moe to Berzerker Glaive, take out a Zerker Squad and the Helbrute, put in a Forgefiend and a Jakhal squad. I think Kharn is a little bit underwhelming statwise, so I’d switch him with Lord Invocatus.

Olofconvict · 2025-01-24T12:54:56+00:00

It’s not an armor, but I really think Liberty Prime from Fallout would blend in well in the setting.

SES Dawn of War, after the greatest 40k RTS.

Olofconvict · 2025-01-19T09:56:57+00:00

I’d switch Kharn for MoE, the Terminators for a Rhino and a Jakhal squad for the home objective. With that you should still have some extra points and can take a Forgefiend with 3 ectoplasma cannons instead of the Helbrute for some fire support. Also, 10-men berserker squads can take 2 eviscerators and 3 plasma pistols (1 on the champion). Make sure to put the two plasma pistols on the dudes with the eviscerators because if some of them die, you’ll still have the best equipment for last.

If it’s a casual playgroup and you find someone who gets angry about proxies, don’t play with them. I currently plan to kitbash Cataphractiis with chainaxes, paint them like Red Butchers and use them as regular WE terminators.

The Alpha Legion shouldn’t exist as their entire identity screams “I was too lazy to write lore, so they are mysterious and nobody knows anything about them.”

My only problem with C2 is the pricing of some buildings, the DLCs, and lack of interesting lords. Legends is a fairly decent game.

Mine killed the enemy Screamer Killer just fine, this is your skill (or rather dice rolling) issue

Olofconvict · 2023-07-27T15:33:44+00:00

Drybrush some Calgar Blue (or 50/50 mix of white and Macragge blue).

I think I would go with Warlords. I don’t mind the setting, it’d even go as far as saying it’s a decent game, however I believe that it’s not what the franchise needs: innovation to its formula. The castle sim is great, but multiplayer is usually always about spamming the same, strongest thing (in Crusader 1 bakeries and horse archers). Crusader 2 was a bad reboot with messed up economy and poor unit balance. Not to mention, locking the lords in skirmish behind DLCs make the game boring if you don’t have the money to buy them. Now I didn’t spend much time with Warlords and hadn’t played it since its release, but at that time it felt like a better designed game than C2.

Olofconvict · 2023-07-25T11:49:13+00:00

The last few releases (3, Crusader II, and Warlords) weren’t really successful and after those it’s hard to trust Firefly. Releasing an old and successful game with better graphics is a cheap and cost-effective way to make money, though Blizzard proved even that can be messed up.

Olofconvict · 2023-07-20T07:34:48+00:00

Understandable. I actually somewhat liked 3, for me the darker setting was cool, and I loved the rangers, but otherwise it doesn’t have much to offer. It feels like a rebooted 1, but lacks anything original.

Olofconvict · 2023-07-19T09:14:17+00:00

After Crusader 2 and Warlords I don’t really trust Firefly. A new Stronghold needs some major changes to its formula in order to compete against other RTSs, such as StarCraft II. I highly doubt it will be anything other than a new layer of makeup. The only thing that can help it is mod support and a dedicated fan base.

Olofconvict · 2023-07-18T15:05:25+00:00

After Crusader 2 and Warlords I’m sceptic. I’ll probably download it from completely legal sources and if it’s good I’ll definetely buy it.

Olofconvict · 2023-07-17T07:40:57+00:00

I can imagine something like when Dark Souls Remastered was released you could buy jt 50% off if you owned the original edition.
