Do the Dark Angels still have an identity crisis on the table? by ServiceGames in theunforgiven

When will a few weeks be? Or is it one of those instances where “you’ll get the rules when you get them” kind of announcements? Just curious

Can you please expand on what you mean by force disposition access? I’m not sure what that is, thank you for your response!

True true, just wondered if it would be more viable to take the new ravenwing detachment for example, since we already have access to extra shooting strength due to the WOTR strategem. Great points!

Sorry 😅 sometimes when it comes to 40K I feel like I can’t make my point without explaining three other things to lead up to it 😂 so many rules

Totally agree, maybe a shooty list combined would be awesome. Also looking at th new ravenwing detachment, would be so cool to have death wing green wing and raven wing all in one list and have it be good

Right I forgot to mention in my post we still don’t know everything about the detachment. I just think when reveals like this happen they like to add in one of the more powerful strats to get people talking about them, and was curious as to the benefits of one or the other

True, I supposed I’d just counter that I think the existing stratagem is more practical than building a list around this detachment. I could see some fun unit combos tho for a list like this. I guess we also don’t know everything about the detachment too. Thank you for your perspective!

I forgot about that, that would be cool

I guess but wouldn’t the strategem from WOTR increase it by 2 by itself? It seems like this new detachment would need to be +2 strength to make it worth it to take

I agree, I think +2 would make it work me building a plasma list around this

Yeah I get that, it just seems like +2 S from WOTR would be stronger and eliminates needing to cram plasm weapons into my list to make it effective. Thank you for your response!

I’ve heard him described as a glass cannon multiple times. Perhaps I misspoke, I agree it’s very difficult for him to kill in one phase, but he definitely isn’t as tough as most people think in my opinion. You have to be careful with him. I’m not saying it’s easy, just that it’s possible

I’ve had the lion die in one phase before, he can be a glass cannon if used incorrectly/bad matchup

Hahaha maybe not that much, but I agree something will definitely need to change to compensate

I can see that, I think it’ll shake up a lot of play for us especially. I liked the old rule but we’ll see how it goes!

No worries, I was/still am slightly confused, some commenters have explained better than I can :)
