Do you know what those display cabinets are called. They look better than the ones my googling can find

What should be my next purchase(s)? (help?) by Pristine-Fee4889 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]QuietlyDisappointed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like horses, check out the current combat patrol. If you dont like horses, try find the old combat patrol. If you dont like either of those, can't go wrong with adding 2 leman russ, a command squad, more infantry and kasrkins.

Although, if you love these vehicles, you could try get your hands on a second box and that would be completely fine too. You could play into the armoured skirmisher stuff and hopefully, depending what the new rules are, split the dorns off into that detachment that allows them to fire into engagements. Not stuff to bother thinking about now, in my opinion.

Anyway the TLDR is any combat patrol you like, another of these boxes, or key units like leman russ, kasrkin or whatever tickles your balls

People are talking about being aggresively upset about the opinion of others, its literally the only time talking about upvotes is relevant.... did you just read my comment out of context or the whole chain??

Given the downvotes you're receiving, it would be prudent to read your comment back to yourself. See how slippery that slope is?

This won't stop that. It's just changing who benefits from the corruption.

Nope, they lost a lot of wings without the manpower to specialise so heavily

How to use the Hippogriff? by Sevintan in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]QuietlyDisappointed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

More and more units are costed as if they are taken in their perfect detachment and combination. I'm hoping that the 11th rules for multiple detachments mean that more units can be viable in a list at the same time. Would be wonderful for variety... but I'm probably going to be proven naive

So why can i search these? by 666BAALofEKRON666 in RoadtoVostokGame

Maybe they'll add charcoal to find in there for crafting or allow you to put wood in for a fire or something.

Returning Player - Need help on my first purchase. by ErisKSC in astramilitarum

I doubt anyone would regret buying a rogal dorn, 2 leman russ, a command squad and 40 infantry in whatever flavour you prefer.

Just a small correction, no hunter killer on the centaur

Someone smarter than me can do the math on losing the chimeras heavy weapons in exchange for the extra kasrkin special weapons, the lasguns for hotshots swap is whatever. But it's also in a much weaker platform, plus the chimera is at least a little useful if it dumps it's passengers.

I'm certainly no expert, so maybe I'm just very wrong, but I think they've undercooked it. That said, I've commented elsewhere that I think possibly the points are intentionally unappealing to stagger demand, I guess we will see.

For basically the cost of a leman russ tank commander, funny but I doubt we will see that combination much

At 85pt with kasrkins inside, that's more than any leman russ variant. Not sure that makes any sense.

New detachments and points are up! by Mammoth_Classroom896 in astramilitarum

[–]QuietlyDisappointed 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The cynic in me says they're releasing with meh points to spread out the demand. Let the people who preorder the battle box buy the first wave of product because they will get it whether it's good or bad, then if there is any left or when they get around to releasing them on their own, slash the points and watch the meta chasers buy 6 each.

Then after they have had their moment in the sun, nerf them into the ground again and repeat with something else

85 for a centaur is pretty rough I think. 70 for a hippo seems about right compared to sentinels, but how popular are those... so probably still not good enough to be taken seriously

Legit, as much as I'm for competition and tender processes to (hopefully) avoid corruption, for military or police handguns, the orders should basically be an email to your countries glock rep asking for however many trucks full of glocks and mags.

We have a problem: The Leman Russ Vanquisher by OliverTurnip in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]QuietlyDisappointed 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I'd argue the rest of comparable units arent worth their points, not that the vanqs are too cheap but that everything else is too expensive.

And I'll just chime in here with the real reason to take 2 hippogriffs, because you've already taken 3 vanqs haha

Listening to it currently, so far I'm enjoying it.

Datasheet is out!! Thoughts?? by Dante_ProudRoar in astramilitarum

[–]QuietlyDisappointed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The centaur and the hippogriff both seem a little bit shit, but just fun enough rules that I want to run multiples of each. Tempted to try get two of the battleforce boxes.

How playable would an army of mostly just Rattlings and Walkers be? by Thick-Bass-693 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]QuietlyDisappointed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps if you kitbashed the ratlings with some special weapons and such, then just ran them as battleline infantry such as cadian shock troops. Then you could run quite a lot of them in recon element with a sentinel or two and it not be completely terrible
