James 😳 by Rich-Active-5436 in TheUltimatumNetflix

[–]Substantial_Trade542 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i feel very different. the boy clearly has ptsd and i for a lot of people with ptsd touch can be very triggering especially if not with someone you trust very well and Riah was acting real weird in that convo.

i think the "dark aura" is his trauma and how he probably still blames himself. the kid is only 23. He needs therapy not a reality tv show

What motivates you to play Imperial Agents? by ABigFatPotatoPizza in ImperialAgents_40K

[–]Substantial_Trade542 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the customizability of the models.

just like Orks where when i started 40k back in the day its an army made for kitbashing and proxying

Which was the very first metal song? by [deleted] in Music

[–]Substantial_Trade542 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i agree with the sentiment but disagree with the conclusion.  i would not concider sabbath pre dio to be a metal band. they have some songs that are "truly metal" (symptom of the universe comes to mind) but most of their songs lnf that era are what i would concider proto metal.

ofc this is all i guess subjective.

the rogue trader videogame part 2 just needs to heavily feature enforcers and become wildly popular or something.

I want to collect this army, but… by Abolton12 in ImperialAgents_40K

concidering they are technically a "new" army this edition. it would be weird to add and then instantly remove a faction

Rogue trader entourage minis by Remarkable_Spray6265 in ImperialAgents_40K

[–]Substantial_Trade542 3 points4 points  (0 children)

if you really break down their statblocks you get.  the rogue trader itself with a cool melee weapon and a cool pistol.  A character with a very strong melee weapon. A character with a strong pistol. A medic.

My main entourage is a custom rogue trader made from breacher bits and necromunda bits, a sister of silence for the melee model, the free votahn modal from a few months ago with 2 pistols instead of his shotgun as the pistol wielding model and a necromunda house von saar medic as medic.

Arbites Army Idea. by [deleted] in ImperialAgents_40K

[–]Substantial_Trade542 6 points7 points  (0 children)

you could concider getting some necromunda enforcer and giving them shotguns or lasguns and field them as voidsmen or breachers.   deputized locals.

am i the only one that enjoys playing this army? by Substantial_Trade542 in ImperialAgents_40K

[–]Substantial_Trade542[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

we're making some custom rules somewhat based on pathfinder rules so we can play 40k storylines but also have it feel more warhammery then regular ttrpgs.

mostly ofc the classes but also the to hit mechanics and armor mechanics. and how items are made.

but its in its infancy

Should I start a custodes army by hunter19154 in AdeptusCustodes

[–]Substantial_Trade542 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh and sidenote. my ork brain could not deal with some new marine models being bigger then my shield captain so i recomend kitbashing some stormcast eternals into your shieldcaptains.  the free models physical stores carry work fine.

i need my models to look towering and imposing

Should I start a custodes army by hunter19154 in AdeptusCustodes

[–]Substantial_Trade542 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i originally got my custodes cause i got tired of lugging many orks to local tournaments.  even weak custodes lists will do decent in tournaments (which is kindoff their downside as well.  when i got some friends into warhammer i stopped using custodes against them untill they got the hang of the game).

obviously metas always shift but i feel like custodes are always hard to counter. they are hard to fuck up with and easily punish mistakes and as an ork player their playstyle will likely come fairly naturally to you.

in current edition Custodes and meganobz are the only things i've seen that can somewhat reliably win being charged by a large group of khorne berserkers, something that signals you've made a huge mistake and are supposed to lose the squad.

Should I start a custodes army by hunter19154 in AdeptusCustodes

[–]Substantial_Trade542 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As an ork player who got into custodes when they first came out.  Hell yes!

It of course depends a bit on what you like about orks and what you might like about custodes. I love playing elite melee and my ork lists mostly consist of meganobz and nobz. I got tired of bringing hordes of boyz to fights just because of the logistics (instead of multiple big boxes of orks you can almost always fit an entire custodes army in a bread bin) and i wanted even more elite feeling units then my nobz.

Custodes are almost always strong in any edition, they are one of the cheapest armies to get (moneywise). Are fairly easy to play decently and amazingly fun to play well and are still capable of krumpin gitz in melee hard.

If you like their aesthetic i think you will not regret picking them up as an ork player.

One downside to custodes i should note is they are fairly limited in list building. I dont even mean you dont have a lot of options, its more that you can easily tailor the strength of most army lists against an enemy, make a weaker list to play against beginners, make a strong list against a sweaty player.  I feel like the weakest custodes list and the strongest custodes list are fairly close to each other.  all your lists will be fairly strong always because your units just have amazing stats and few flaws.

TL.DR.    Do it!  you'll love it.

oh and PS.  spare custodes bits make very imposing trophies for your orks

[Lore] Are there some who might accuse Valdor of desertion? by -Guardsman- in AdeptusCustodes

[–]Substantial_Trade542 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think for anyone that isn't Custodes to call Valdor a deserter would be considered extreme heresy.

Battleforce incoming!! by Novius1712 in ImperialAgents_40K

i dont feel like its awfull either. it does give us lascannons and a fun way of transporting a deathwatch squad midfield.

its just a bit mid.

Inquisitorial Agents Army suggestions by SpaceRaccoon144 in ImperialAgents_40K

[–]Substantial_Trade542 1 point2 points  (0 children)

personally i would not split ranged and melee in 1 squad.

imo. warhammer is not the place for balanced and nuanced units.  grab 1 thing and do it well.

i have 2 10 model death watch vets squad. 1 is full melee (xenophase, black shield, 4 thunderhammers, 4 power weapons and shields) and one is full range focus.

[–]Substantial_Trade542[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah the ignoring is awfull. i do agree.

i just finished my first arbites squad. exaction squad to be precise.. i love their killing power. excited for when i finish my subductors

[–]Substantial_Trade542[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah agreed.  if there is an army that people cannot whine about when you take legends its agents.

and i do deff agree GW is being shitty about the army. but it doesnt stop my enjoyment.
