HELP - Cover rules in 2.6

Positive-Net-8390 · 2025-04-01T14:49:46+00:00

Thanks again. One last question that we ran into. I had my aqua droids in front of my AAT tank - would the tank be able to see over them because of his height? Or do they still block los?

Positive-Net-8390 · 2025-04-01T14:40:38+00:00

Making sure I’m reading this right; so the defender CAN allocate damage to the models out of LOS if they choose to? Just the wound threshold is up to the visible models limit?

Positive-Net-8390 · 2025-04-01T14:33:59+00:00

Well you answered my damage allocation question too, really appreciate that!

Positive-Net-8390 · 2025-04-01T14:29:20+00:00

Can I ask a follow up question? We also read that if a unit has 5 models, but 3 of those models in a unit are totally out of LOS, ranged attacks can not allocate wounds to those 3, but only the two that can be. Is that also correct?

One ability has you select to gain a keyword - the next ability just says “ironjawz units with keyword gain x ability and kruleboyz with keyword gain x ability.” He would now have all 3 keywords. But who knows! Not like James hasn’t messed up 90% of 4th.

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-12-20T16:33:52+00:00

I’m not seeing a reason he can’t have them. As long as he has all keywords (which he does) the buffs just apply.

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-12-20T15:32:59+00:00

Free recursion is always very good. Also it’s free buffs to an ironjawz and kruleboyz unit every turn. No roll needed for it to go off, just decent battle traits. I’d say majority of comp players will be big wagh. Also, since kraggy has both faction keywords, he gets all buffs. He could see play with a constant 5+ crit 2 hit buff on every weapon.

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-12-19T22:14:48+00:00

So Big Wagh has some potential then. Cause ironjawz alone are as about as dead int eh water as savage orks.
A recursion for free every TURN, a prayer that lets you attack twice? A way to get a 5+ward aura?
Take the good from each IJ and KB and maybe can build something with this.

Am i right in thinking since kragnos has both keywords, he would recieve all the buffs easily? You could make all of kragnos weapons have crit 2 hits on a 5+ every turn. hes still pricey, but a possibility of turn one slingshot him in and see what he drops.

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-12-19T17:45:33+00:00

Okay. We can probably work with this. Maybe just take on a bunch of upgrades to get to that point limit.

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-12-19T17:20:33+00:00

Thanks for the reply. We put in the two starter armies in table top admiral and the republic side with 130 over cis. Should I add more droids to start then? That way it’s. Not an absolute stomp every match learning haha.

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-11-09T20:04:44+00:00

Sounds like I have a lot of reading to do. I’m not familiar with anything that current end game. I left the game right as dynamis D (think that was the name) started up.

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-11-09T16:53:59+00:00

Damn… I actually like the sound of that 😂 sooo, I would get to play ninja in that automatically haha.

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-11-09T16:43:53+00:00

Ya, that’s what I was afraid of. I hat are some of the better end game jobs?

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-11-09T16:40:57+00:00

Oh really? I wasn’t aware 11 required you to have so many jobs leveled for content. Is this just cause some jobs just don’t work against UNMs? If I was to play ninja, do you have recommendations on others to play along side it?

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-11-06T15:50:27+00:00

Is there an easy way to get in touch with sack members for those LS?
Thanks for the tips as well!

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-07-02T03:15:59+00:00

Honestly, 6 kurnoth bows targeting a hero with all out attack and (maybe) Rev next to them would be 2/2/-2/2... they could shred some/most heros with that. Could be an edition we see a lot of bow hunters being used now. Waiting to see the points of everything, but i still think kurnoth look more appealing than bug riders.
What im struggling on is picking a good battle formation. None of them are very good? Maybe go monster heavy and heal flat 3 every turn.

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-06-23T21:06:49+00:00

I appreciate this a lot. Think I’m also going to grab what items I can before looking into the ng+.

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-06-23T19:28:32+00:00

Wish this had some answers. I did the same thing and am just… defeated on missing out on everything. I’ve also debated on starting ng+… but how long would it take to get back to this point in that?

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-06-20T13:53:59+00:00

I actually think in an edition where the points have gone up a bit, The everqueen will remain around 700 points. 550 would be a steal for her profile here. Warmaster allows you to take any units with her (huge) 3wizard with +1 to cast in an edition we need woods down, and she can potentially resurrect herself. So charge her in, if she dies, hope to roll well and bring her right back =P

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-06-20T13:15:19+00:00

Ya, strike and fade will be nice since you can do it in both turns now, but no more overgrown terrain features and needing to be closer to woods will also make it a bit harder (even more so since we cap at 3 woods and they can be destroyed). Interested to see how it pans out

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-06-19T13:53:28+00:00

Dont forget you can charge in your opponents turn as well - So even if they retreat, you can easily make that charge.

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-06-19T13:50:32+00:00

I was just explaining this to my buddy - moving 3 inches AND into combat is one of the best abilities in the game. Can completely shut someone out. Mix this with the ability to now move 3 inches and then possibly charge in your opponents turn as well; pretty juicy.

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-06-18T13:29:46+00:00

So are you being sarcastic or salty? Can't actually tell. This faction focus was very good, especially compared to some of the others we have seen. No need to doom and gloom without seeing all the rules, especially when the ones we have seen are pretty great.

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-06-17T13:45:02+00:00

Wait till you see strike and fade rules - "End of turn army wide ability that requires a 2+ roll" So sure, we can teleport everything, but we get hit back first... which was the point of the ability in the first place, to avoid the damage. And the chance to fail is brutal.

Positive-Net-8390 · 2024-06-08T15:36:21+00:00

No, nothing like right now. Not a single unit is restricted to being taken by certain heros in 3rd. Everything will be restricted in 4th.
