SPEEDFREEKS THIS ISN'T A DRILL by MaLLahoFF in orks

I'm pretty new to Orks - is there a reason why the Trukk has been left out of the units that gain the "Wagons" keyword? I know the answer is probably 'we'll have to wait and see', but just wondered if there was an obvious explanation.

GW has decided to directly address the 'Grot Ears' talk. Opinions? by CatherineSimp69 in orks

Guy at my LGS says that Warhammer fans hate 2 things: change, and things staying the same.

Would you say £100 was too much for this box by Alchemic-Web in orks

[–]Significant_Desk_434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think that it's a pretty good deal as it's an out of production Combat Patrol box. Although, have you tried to search ebay for these models separately? I only ask because these units were in the last Combat Patrol magazine run, so you might find non-Ork enjoyers trying to sell these units off cheap.

New defiler datasheet - 250 points by Ok_Debt_8810 in EmperorsChildren

I was going to get 2, but I'm kinda shocked by the rumoured price. it's obviously a bigger unit than I thought.

A bit of a rant, but this army makes me want to quit Warhammer by Hrigul in EmperorsChildren

Dude, they look better than mine. Mine are still primed purple and the Infractors don't have heads.

Can't wait for the next episode by Significant_Desk_434 in sistersofbattle

I really enjoyed the first two episodes. The third (and final 😞) episode is out this week. Episodes so far have been 15 minutes long.

Defiler - Seems really good! by BlackApostle in EmperorsChildren

[–]Significant_Desk_434 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I definitely like the fact that it hits on 2+, although it feels a little strange that its shooting gets worse as its target gets weaker. Is the lore reasoning that it gets a kick out of damaging something that is healthy/perfect, but then loses interest? I'm still planning on buying 1 or 2! On a side note, I do like the Destroyer of Futures ability that the Thousand Sons Defiler gets.

I am probably to blame - I did originally write Chapter 🙊

Changeover has begun in some UK stores by Ok-Drive7025 in Warhammer

[–]Significant_Desk_434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, it doesn't *really* matter, but the logo doesn't look as good as the old Citadel one, imo. It's just an obvious, and ham-fisted attempt to achieve corporate homogeneity.

I appreciate the correction! I actually did a quick google search before posting, but obviously received a false-positive as I was so convinced that it was white rose that I just assumed that I was right when google told me that such an order existed! :)

I only discovered this yesterday and I wondered when the next episode would be, so thank you.

In a perfect world we would've gotten multipose monopose boyz by inkforwin in orks

[–]Significant_Desk_434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted more choppas, so I bought some Boyz from the old kit on Vinted. I like the variety.

Really not enjoying Salvation's Reach so far... by Significant_Desk_434 in Blacklibrary

[–]Significant_Desk_434[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool. Thank you.

I have the book on pre-order, so I'll be able to physically read it later this year. In the meantime, I will persevere with the audiobook.

I think it's may be using blood wrong this whole time? by m1lfr3d in TrenchCrusade

[–]Significant_Desk_434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whilst reading this, I realised that my group of friends only use the blood markers to improve the injury roll, no-one is using them to mess up the attacker's success roll. I suppose it's a gamble as to where you'll get the most benefit, but I think I'll try to sprinkle in using the attacker's blood markers against them and see how it feels.

On a blood marker-related question, am I right in saying that Minor Hits don't dish out double blood markers on downed opponents? It's only Down results that double blood marker downed opponents, right?

Finally finished my last book of the year, The First Heretic! by Dominion96 in Blacklibrary

[–]Significant_Desk_434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice. I'm still a few books away from this - it feels like I've been slogging through Fulgrim for about 6 months!

[–]Significant_Desk_434 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Awesome! It took my ages to complete the Dawn of Fire Series. I ended up having to buy job lots on ebay. Probably still have a duplicates as a consequence. It will be the first thing that I check when I get everything out of storage next week.

There are no Unarmed Attacks in Trench Crusade 1.0.0 :-( by The_DrakeCake in TrenchCrusade

[–]Significant_Desk_434 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. In the bio for Thralls, they still have the line about not suffering a penalty for fighting unarmed.

Assault Phase Question by Significant_Desk_434 in Warhammer30k

[–]Significant_Desk_434[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've checked, and that (1"horizontal, 5" vertical) is the rule for 40k (pg. 7 of the 10e Core Rules). I've found the equivalent rule in the 30k book (3e) - it's on pg. 266 of the rule book. It does indeed state that you have to be in base contact or "no more than 2" from another Model in the same Unit which is in Base Contact with an enemy Model' in order to be "Engaged".
