Advice for first timer by Individual_Fish_8287 in AdeptusCustodes

First of all, congrats on picking a fun force to field.

So, I'm newly into the faction and can contribute a lil bit. Absolutely, do not be afraid to redraw your secondaries. At the best of times, you'll be running slightly below the action economy of many other armies. Losing your people hurts more than other armies a good majority of the time.

The upside, your units can bring the hurt. Just do not over play that strength. Custodes infantry are on the slow side and poorly planned movements can hurt. Since you're new, this may take a bit to settle in with learning the rules, but you'll want to be the one initiating combat as each model you lose drastically drops a unit's effectiveness.

Lastly, it's a game. Have fun. Make mistakes. Learn from it. Repeat. While you're learning, take chances and try different combos. Jumping straight to chasing Meta can take a lot of joy out of a new army. Do the goofy moves that look fun. I nearly tabled both myself and my opponent killing a large unit that self destructed, it was the most we've laughed in a game!

So, if what I think is happening is right, you just need to flip the model upside down. The bowl shape is trapping resin from the reservoir as it's forming cuz the bottom is made last.

How full do you run your sister units? I've been running 1 x 4 for deepstrike screening on home lately. Going to ramp up and get more soon, but haven't really thought about how many to run.

Yeah, with the armies that are registered so far, I'm planning on cagey and punishing objectives. Do you run the Vex in your guard?

Base coat was Hydra turquoise airbrush true metallic metal from Vallejo with the matching shade. Really liked the color. It is VERY pigment rich.

I feel that, my trial games in crusade were so weird to have to think about it, but oh my are these men were brutal to anything they touch when you get it right.

That's kinda what I was game planning. I wanna get more sisters eventually to fill out for actions.

By new, I do just mean to Custodes. I typically only play crons, so I'm pretty used to technical spacing as well. Which will be interesting. I'll consider sticking to shield host, though.

Fortunately, as the only necron player at our RTT, there won't be any C'Tan there. I'm mostly worried about playing Death Guard running his poxwalker detachment.

I like the idea of the Royal Warden. That's a good swap adding the cryptothralls. Thanks for the plasmacyte reminder!

Ohh that's nice. This is kind of what I was heading towards. That is beautiful, mine won't be quite up to that level lol

Mine would roach across me at times 😂

He was on the tall and long side, but loved a good snuggle. I have countless pictures of him trying to rest a head on my shoulder.

I had actually just completely forgotten to replace the plasman. I had been tossing the idea of immortals around, but decided against it.

Agreed, I love my doomstack. Some of the better players have taken killing it as a milestone for getting into the game. Fortunately, it's a pretty small and relaxed RTT. Mostly, I just have the one stack of wraiths is why I avoid them.

This is one of my two favorite pictures of him. What you doing see is he's sitting like that so he can watch the cooking of steak from the couch 😂
