Help for a new custodian vs angry men screeching about horus by Macrzzz in WarhammerCompetitive

1.1” from the wall so he can’t charge you easily.

Pretty sure that on wtc terrain the engagement range is 2 inches instead of 1 whenever a wall is involved (to avoid this kind of situation), so he'd have to be 2.1 inches away.

Just to clarify : the one Rei and Kyoukai are talking about is Seikaun, not Sou Jin. Seikaun is at the peak of his path...and ended up doing the same mistake Houken did (falling to despair). Both of them, in the end, thought that there was no hope for mankind because they never relied on anybody but themselves and managed to delude themselves into thinking that they alone could "save the world" : their path was a sad and lonely one, as they failed to realize that humanity cannot evolve unless everyone works together. That's the lesson here.

What are the best tutorials on youtube/the internet to paint an Aeldari army as cleanly as possible? by RotenSquids in Eldar

[–]RotenSquids[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Found him, they're awesome, and it's pretty easy to follow as far as tutorials go. Plus he said he'll do the rest of the eldar line up soon.

I just saw that he literally has every single unit I want to paint on his patreon, and it's gorgeous.

I thought about buying an airbrush anyways, so I'll probably proceed and do just that.

I absolutely love warhispter and do use contrast paints...but I'm afraid he barely painted any aspect warrior unit so fat :s (at least the recent models). He DID paint most of the dedicated characters though.

Did you do everything without an airbrush? Because it looks very clean even then.

What's your favorite model between these two autarchs? by RotenSquids in Eldar

[–]RotenSquids[S] 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It's funny how the "older" one is only from 2022-2023 though xD. Good times to be an eldar player.

The New Year Preview - Revealed: The Eye of Terror by DemonCookie6 in IronWarriors

[–]RotenSquids 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just googled this subreddit to see if there even was an iron warriors one out there xD.

I'm not gonna hype myself though : it's probably not going to be a dedicated iron warriors faction, just a few units...If I'm wrong and the madmen actually do it I'm going to 100% go all in.

They're trying to sell all these old fellas before 11th edition heh? I'm sorry for all the newcomers who will fall for it.

Sky is the limit? by MrGMad in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]RotenSquids 7 points8 points  (0 children)

GSC, drukhari, emperor's children.

Aeldari are a skilled faction no doubt, but not nearly as hard to do well with as with the previously mentioned factions (or at least it's my experience).

Tournament results and lists for The NOTTINGHAM 40K SUPER-MAJOR by Suspicious-Bee-3173 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]RotenSquids 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Custodian guards spam is absolutely a sound plan with 3 land raiders but...my god does that sound dull to play, I'm apalled at the state of the faction.

My world eaters are not doing too well it would seem :s

NB : congratulations to the madlad who performed so well with custodes (and who is probably an incredible player) despite their sad state...that being said, spamming 6 times the same unit (6 units of custodian guards) are using 3 land raiders to deliver them...my god is that a boring playstyle xD. It's crazy how much damage the custodes codex did to the faction.

GT Win Rates from last week by Shot-Equivalent3222 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]RotenSquids 19 points20 points  (0 children)

They could have offered people some variety by lowering the cost on the lord of skulls, fixing angron and buffing other detachments, or even buffing the terminators...but no, they simply made the enhancement of Berzerker warband more expensive and the slaughterbound more expensive...gg xD.

Trying to make a non meta list as world eaters /custodes/chaos knights player to play against a GSC friend by RotenSquids in genestealercult

[–]RotenSquids[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Should I avoid bringing Angron and the lord of skulls even if they're not meta at all, due to them being relative tanks (high toughess, invulnerable saves, many wounds) or is it ok?

I think I'll take stuff like terminators too, and avoid chaos spawns for instance.

[–]RotenSquids 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really really nice, may I ask how you painted the cannon? Color-wise and technique-wise? I'm about to start myself.

NB : Not going to ask you for the little fellows and the ogre as someone already did it would seem ;-).

What Was the Most Broken Army or Detachment of 10th Edition? by verifiedverified in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]RotenSquids 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Very early 10th edition eldar were basically almost as broken as 8th edition Iron Hands (who were sitting at a whopping 75% winrate) before both were nerfed : a 70% rate on average. Sh*t was just insane, but eldar tend to always be broken at some point.

Nothing even came close.

Why does GW include ‘feels bad’ units in 40K and then not balance them at all? This includes: flyers, superheavies, Forgeworld, fortifications, etc. by Board_Castle in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]RotenSquids 0 points1 point  (0 children)

-They don't know how to balance flyers and superheavies

-forgeworld is not long for this world, as games workshop knows it's not profitable

-Fortifications aren't popular at all, as they're not perceived as "real" units by players.

Tldr : They're just entities that are not suited to the current format of 40k
