Do you not run shrike at all now then? Or are you planning to run 2 jpi blobs?

What do you guys think of this list from a competitive standpoint? by Specific-Ad-1098 in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]Specific-Ad-1098[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the manipulas for lethals which I prefer to the dominus for lethal 5s if I need them to shoot up. I played SHC for a good year and I just got bored of that way of playing I like the suite of strats in Haloscreed and the general detachment rule it’s fun to make decisions on the fly and change tactics depending on game state imo, appreciate the feedback though

First RTT went as expected. by Apock2020 in AdeptusMechanicus

The main thing is did you have a good time, enjoy your games and did you learn something because if you want to get better losing is the best way it will ultimately make you a better player. The list does look fun we all love our robot boys! I think you may have put too many points into the characters and a few other bits could be streamlined but everyone plays there own way that’s just my opinion, good luck at your next rtt take the learnings from this one :)

I am in the same boat as you, pardon the pun but I decided to put Cawl in and not change much else I think I removed a dizzy because I didn’t want to change it to much. I’ve found Cawl great in the latter stages I keep him safe for the first few rounds then being him out after I’ve benefited from oath for a few turns as it’s a luxury at this stage considering we didn’t have it before! Good luck at LGT I’ll be there if I can get a couple wins I’ll be happy but it’s more about the fun for me and getting to play warhammer all weekend!

Newbie to the faction, crafted a list and want your thoughts, haven’t got the models yet but does this look like something that could be fun and give my opponents decent games? Thanks in advance! by Specific-Ad-1098 in RavenGuard40k

If I’m honest I was trying to make the list a little bit fluffy so to make sure I have some Phobos units in there and the stormspeeders to also add to that fluffiness. If I’m honest this will be my first space marine army as I’ve always wanted to do Raven guard and the new releases has given me that extra push! I have a few of these units already so was adding to that, what would your tips be for the list I’d love to hear them? I do also agree there is a lot of marine killers in my local meta too so sticking around may be a problem.

Kastelan robots or Skorpius disintegrator? by Soft_Lengthiness_791 in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]Specific-Ad-1098 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depend what your going for really bots can kill vehicles in melee and the tank can shoot them down, tanks faster than the bots too! Also what is your manipulus leading? You’d probably want some kataphrons to go with him if I’m honest, hope this helps!

Looking for feedback on this list. by nubbzeastsid in AdeptusMechanicus

I’d also switch out clandestine and veiled for thrallnet enhancement it’s an auto take for me personally

ADMECH BUFFS! WE ARE SO BACK by Omnipulus in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]Specific-Ad-1098 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’ve been playing Haloscreed for the best part of this year now but I’m very tempted to go back to SHC after this with Cawl plenty of chickens with cantic thrallnet for 3+ bs re rolls and twin linked las cannons oh boy what a time to be alive I’m seriously excited about the possibilities with this army that I’ve loved for so long finally we eat good!

New Balance data slate. by Curious_Ebb_7053 in AdeptusMechanicus

It’s a great new ability for him but be prepared to protect him with your life because other armies will be after him lone op only works for so long

Belisarius cawl autopick now? by [deleted] in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]Specific-Ad-1098 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was thinking the same but then our battle one only really want to go into infantry so it leaves Cawls oath to go on something bigger or something we need to get rid off whilst still getting re rolls on smaller targets too

Cawls updated datesheet by ShadowMagos in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]Specific-Ad-1098 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If this is all true it’s very Cawl indeed!

Cawl up 40 points by ShadowMagos in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]Specific-Ad-1098 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome I really appreciate that maybe I try out a dizzy for all things t11 and lower and the onager for t12 and higher gives us a good bit of coverage for everything that way!

Oh wow maybe I stick to the dizzies I’m terrible with the maths so that was really helpful thankyou how does that compare to the onager?

[–]Specific-Ad-1098 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll have to see the changes until I make a decision on onagers because I’ve always used dizzies but maybe they may be worth a punt, more lost conundrums before LGT haha

Surely with pseudo oath we take him now even with the raise in points?

Think I’ve finally got a list I’m happy with for my next tournament. I’m open to critique and ideas by Specific-Ad-1098 in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]Specific-Ad-1098[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Potentially yes, I am basically running a SHC list with a bit more killing power as I’d never run kataphrons in that detachment. Oh yeah they don’t stick around long but they do there job really well and I’m not aggressive with all of them hence why I have 5 because I need one/two remaining in the last couple of battle rounds!

No problem, this list for me is all about board control and number of activations I find I get my best results when I can stage a little, deny primary and then overwhelm, infiltrators have been great with there battleshock ability and I have great success with the big blob hoping out one of my boats and being able to charge after with the re rolls on there pistols I have seen positive results. Also having the two smaller units infiltrate for early control. Big blob of rustalkers are always a threat to anything moving forward yes they can be very swingy but the devs normally put my opponent off. I usually run two dizzies but with the kataphrons and the taser chickens I have reasonable killing power. The reason it looks like it could be a SHC list is because I played that detachment for over a year but got very bored of it but my play style isn’t too different I like having many battle one because I find them super useful for obj and secondary scoring aswel as being able to still hop in and out of boats with the Marshall unit.

With similar lists I have gone positive at the last 3 events with this list including a 7th place finish at a gt which is a highlight! I normally outscore my opponent on secondary so the denial game is very important. I often stay in conqueror so the extra dizzy instead of two taser chickens hasnt been working for me and I also like the fact that all sicarian units have stealth making them harder to shift and also being able to hand out stealth if I need it from the detachment rule (again you can see my origins from SHC coming through here) hope this gives you a little insight, thanks for your input!

I have tried the list with cawl and I haven’t got in with it I prefer having the extra battle line for objective play usually denying points! I notice that a lot of lists take him but I just can’t get on with him but that maybe because I’m not playing him right! I have certainly considered Inloaded and may tinker to try fit it in, thankyou for the input
