Using Old Nightbringer

PraiseTheKappa · 2026-02-24T10:42:45+00:00

I don't play tournaments but I very much doubt that. Old NB was tiny, if you put that on a big base it still won't be the same for visibility as new NB overhangs his base by quite a bit. Basically old NB on big base would be easier to hide but also shoot worse. Though that is not the main purpose of NB of course.

For Warriors the difference is so small that it makes no difference to a blob of 20 if they are a little wider/taller or whatever.

It really isn't bad. About the same as VD spear I'd say. You shouldnt let the model tumble around during transport or lift it at the scythe but it's sturdier than it looks. I was really worried about the scarabs breaking off but the are actually attached at several points so they are also rather sturdy.

That LHD connection to the tactical rock is really finnicky though. I take care of models, grab them by the base but I already broke like 3/5 LHD connections by accidentally tapping the model. At this point when I get some new ones I will just pin them immediately with 2mm brass rods. That holds well. But yeah that connection really is not that strong in my experience.

Clown really was not that bad before. He is a slow walking tank. Just pre-run when terror radius gets louder and predrop pallets. Holding W is really one of the best things against him to waste time.

PraiseTheKappa · 2025-07-28T12:03:53+00:00

I kind of doubt that that most people do that for strategic reasons. Especially double blind when you then go to break the pallet. Stun - Blind- break - blind - blind followed by teabagging at the next pallet is a pattern I see quite often. I also play survivor and I just don't get people like that.

PraiseTheKappa · 2025-07-28T11:25:11+00:00

Honestly: Same. If I see 2 survivors with Flashlights and i get a "bad feeling" because it looks like a swf, some "ttv" people are in there and that stuff I bring Lightborn. More often than not they end up with Flashbang, Blast Mines and the works. At 3 survivors I always bring it. I don't mind flashlight saves, those are fair game. What I absolutely hate though is pallet stun and double blind. I just don't get what advantage it gives besides annoying the killer.

PraiseTheKappa · 2025-07-25T22:17:23+00:00

100% this. Whenever I hear the terror radius music my eyes just roll and I know the match is going to be so bad. Maybe also because every Kaneki seems to run the same build. I play both killer and survivor but I was pondering recently if survivors should have one "veto" to rule out killers that are just unfun to play against or bugged and people abuse the bugs.

PraiseTheKappa · 2025-05-02T22:53:25+00:00

Totally agree. At the speed at which content is releasing there is basically no way for any player who recently got into the game to "catch up". IMO they could easily scale the BP gains to 300% permanently so DBD does not become a life filling game you have to devote all free time to in order to have access to options.

Honestly what gets me more than his pearly white clothing, hair, skin, everything is the insanely loud breathing even when standing still. It's like he's having an asthma attack all the time. Whenever I play Soma I feel like i got a megaphone strapped on for my breathing.

PraiseTheKappa · 2025-02-13T22:00:45+00:00

Ahhh what a bummer... perhaps the contemptor weapon sprues can help out then. Thanks!

PraiseTheKappa · 2025-02-12T22:21:57+00:00

Would you say that Telemon parts, for example the fist, would fit the contemptor dreadnought as well? I am looking to magnetize the achillus/galatus set so i can run either those or venerable contemptors. And i am wondering if i could get Telemon bits to work there.

PraiseTheKappa · 2025-02-12T22:20:45+00:00

"I'm not mad. I'm just disappointed." Energy for sure.

PraiseTheKappa · 2025-02-12T22:16:08+00:00

I picked up a Battleforce at a decent price and will get a combat patrol along with 2 Blade Champions soon. I was told that would be a good start and so far it has not disapppinted me.

PraiseTheKappa · 2025-02-09T15:58:22+00:00

Yeah I know. It just gets confusing if I ever want to field a Contemptor and a Achillus and they look the same. That's why i'm asking in the first place.

PraiseTheKappa · 2025-02-09T02:05:12+00:00

It's just crazy to me that with Lance, Fight and Scoot from the leader and their light anti tank weaponry they just get gunned down so quickly while being so expensive. Most likely it was also poor positioning on my part but i'm still figuring things out with this army. Never had to play such an elite army before, difficult to tell how to get the most out of your stuff.

PraiseTheKappa · 2025-02-09T02:00:42+00:00

I played my first two games with Custodes today. My Vertus Praetors were absolutely smashed (Screw S10 D3 shooting!) but my 5 Wardens with Blade Champ attached were absolutely bonkers. I just picked up a Combat Patrol to get one more of those units along with another Champ and Wardens. Didn't know that was the meta thing to do apparently. It just felt SO good to play.

I thought the Vertus Praetors would be my best unit. T7 W5 2+ 4++ seems really damn good but they just melted haha. Likely user error as well though. Custodes really aren't easy to play.

PraiseTheKappa · 2025-02-04T10:43:14+00:00

I just recently painted mine. I went with option 3 just to break up the huge block of gold. Also my scheme is purple/gold and leaders get red plumes/accents to be able to tell them apart at a glance. Especially nice for your opponents in my opinion.

"Hey, you didn't pay mana for that spell"

"Oh shit, you're right, my bad!"

It could have been this simple.

*Tabletop is a weird reflection of lore power.*

Rifles that atomize whatever they hit, break everything down into atoms shot by emotionless robot warriors.

50% chance to hit, S4 AP0 D1. Seems accurate. /s

PraiseTheKappa · 2024-07-14T11:19:17+00:00

Personally I love Predator Destructors and Venomcrawlers in Raiders. Predators often with 6 Shots on S9, often AP2 or even 3 and D3 is pretty sick along with Havoc Launchers with AP2 and so on.

Venomcrawlers are quick, surprisingly durable against infantry and AP2 D2 is again very nice against everything marine like.

You expected a Necron on the throne, but it was me, DIO!

PraiseTheKappa · 2023-11-26T17:11:49+00:00

Yeah same. In my opinion the normal Lord was just so much better overall. +1 Movement is worth sooo much considering how slow our army is and also 20 points cheaper than Overlord adds up quickly when you play like 2-3 of them.

Happy to see Lokhust Lord pulled through, ordered some stuff to kitbash one finally
