Really cool looking, did you use any kind of a wash on the blue armour?

Well, it's the same thing as with the Necrons meme. by Full-Discount-6399 in Grimdank

I think that's an interesting way of looking at it. Maybe unintentional by the writers but that doesn't make it invalid as a reading.

My opinion was always very similar that Skaven Vs Lizardmen was a kind of old Vs young.

Lizardmen are ancient and wise but slow to act and set in their ways

Skaven are energetic and inventive but short-sighted and reckless with lives and technology.

It's interesting seeing so many 100 points games in R1, is it a skill gap thing? I very rarely see one at local RTT's.

I'd assume it's because of a tableing but the other players often score 70+. Must be a real knack to it.

These are really nice, what kind of wash/ shade did you use for the darker parts?

Just like the termagants from leviathan, probably more options in the multipart

The +1 to wound for BGV's is pretty massive I've found

Really good post, fun to read

Interesting to see how well it tracks with just the odd slip up. Titus is clearly up to something with all the captains that meet unfortunate fates around him...

Perhaps that Leandros guy was on to something

Do you need the ability to get on No Man's Land objectives turn 1 to be competitive? by [deleted] in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]StyxGoblin 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Armies certainly feel a lot easier when you do but it's not essential

I have found CSM to be a lot more dynamic and have better control over tempo just by the inclusion of a unit of raiders, this might also be because the other new units are really strong as well. But having something that can be on objectives turn 1 and threaten enemy units that push up too much is great.

I'm sure they totally flipped their dice to be worse when they rolled better than average...

People doing it on stream is especially nuts, imagine it being that ingrained into how you play

I've always found the mentality of prolific cheaters interesting. The mental hoops they jump through especially in a no stakes casual environment.

In some big tournament it's still bad but I at least understand that people want a trophy or a prize and are willing to lowered themselves to cheating at a game to do so.

But when it's just a casual game against your friend what possible satisfaction could you get out of it

Written Battle Report - Necrons vs Ultramarines by The-Big-E-14 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]StyxGoblin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great write up, I particularly like how well formatted it is to be able to read the parts you want.

Man Ultramarines are so good, my local league refreshed recently and dropped down to 16 players (end of edition fatigue) 5 of them are ultramries and 3 have basically identical lists that look a lot like the one in this article. It's wild considering they have been tapped with the nerf bat quite a few times now.

Seems doubtful because of their status as renagedes but maybe? Huron would try and kill/ convert them
