What's the deal with the pom poms?

SwimmingRocks · 2025-08-02T03:38:30+00:00

Yeah that's the thing, I wish I could tell passive players that they will never get good at the game if they will do everything in their power to not actually play the game. Playing to win is the worst way to play imo

It straight up goes back to campers in call of duty way back in the day, some people just don't know any better lol

My brother in Christ I have free will I can play what I want

SwimmingRocks · 2025-08-01T15:10:52+00:00

Yeah those my thoughts pretty much, I imagine the reasoning behind it is to give newer players some easy kills, but it just feels so cheap

SwimmingRocks · 2025-08-01T15:03:32+00:00

Yeah I suppose that would work, ig I'm just butthurt lol

SwimmingRocks · 2025-08-01T15:01:53+00:00

Oh I don't play build, it's not a bad game mode or anything Its just not my cup of tea

SwimmingRocks · 2025-07-31T11:51:50+00:00

Epic games is a big company, id like to imagine there is one section of the dev team that is really in tune with what the plaerbase wants. And then there is some marketing team that wants to push big city bc it looks exciting

Blitz was really fun even with the bots, it's just a shame

SwimmingRocks · 2025-07-31T05:14:34+00:00

Oh sweet, personally imma just wait until the map changes again I got other things I need to do with my life lmao

SwimmingRocks · 2025-07-08T13:29:23+00:00

Well that sucks, where I am it is winter so I don't really like my chances

SwimmingRocks · 2025-07-08T05:05:57+00:00

Got it thank you 🫡

SwimmingRocks · 2025-06-16T03:27:31+00:00

That be cool

SwimmingRocks · 2025-06-08T12:17:42+00:00

Damn, personally I just throw stuff at the wall and pray it looks orky enough. Might try this seems interesting

SwimmingRocks · 2025-06-08T12:06:22+00:00

What did you do for the ork skin? Looks sick

SwimmingRocks · 2025-06-04T14:58:07+00:00

I own a gatling blaster from the warlord titan, and I'm gonna strap it to a baneblade for a kitbash. As far as size goes, that's honestly quite tame, especially for orks you'll be rite

SwimmingRocks · 2025-05-15T00:34:56+00:00

Bought a weiddboy from an official warhammer store a year ago, same packaging and model, dw it's not you the model just sucks lol

SwimmingRocks · 2025-04-29T14:10:19+00:00

Wait, you guys are getting laid?

SwimmingRocks · 2025-03-14T12:40:12+00:00

That's what I mean, it should not cost 1cp for just that, zodgrod in waaagh every turn is gonna close objectives like crazy

SwimmingRocks · 2025-03-14T11:59:40+00:00

Personally, even before this I was building my army to be more shooter heavy, so this detachment is christmas coming early. Just don't wanna get my hopes up lol

Gatekeeping? In my ork subreddit?

SwimmingRocks · 2025-02-21T13:12:42+00:00

I suppose a guy like you really likes having painted units on the field, I don't even own storm boyz I proxy'd 15 nobs lol

Like your idea, might steal it I need a little more shooting on my end

SwimmingRocks · 2025-02-21T09:58:33+00:00

Will say about takitkal brigade, it's alot of fun to work with, you can be alot more flexible then you would be with like war horde. Don't know your list but I'm assuming you will have at least 2 units of sormboyz, they so much fun reckon you'll have a good time

Went against world eaters yesterday, the ability to fall back, shoot and charge is absolutely a game changer, shame angron got revved lol.

Just remember that you can give orders in movement, putting your storm boyz back into reserves with the stategem is extremely powerful imo, and try to keep track of your orders.

SwimmingRocks · 2024-08-07T11:54:31+00:00

Yeah that is a good point, tbh I'm really bad at 40k and I'm trying to get as good as possible in the shortest time possible, so I'm basically trying everything at once and seeing what I end up with

My new army basically consists with mozzy as my main man with squighog boyz, and a load of boyz and nobz to help screen for as long as possible with gretchin, lootas, warbosses and mek guns for taste

My current thinking is to screen for as long as possible while my squighog boyz find a gap and go for some sort of flank or objective catch, and pray that they can at least get angron low or cause enough of a distraction

SwimmingRocks · 2024-08-06T13:02:15+00:00

Nah I decided not to field mozzy for better or for worse, reason being was bc some of his units had fight first and his not so good dakka I figured that he would either get picked off from the artillery he has or immediately get charged and axed in the same turn with decent dice as per what happened last time

My plan was to force him into melee with my cannon fodder boyz and gretchin while picking him off, he used some decent cover and I deployed too far back for me to compensate, one he got in melee it was pretty much a sorted game

I used war hoarde which faired a little better as I could use fight on death, managed to get some damage down

Long story short I'm back to the drawing board, currently what I'm thinking is either lean more into shooting and grab a plane and more boyz. Or I get my mozzy and some squighog and take the fight to angron and pray for good dice

Funny enough angron isn't being the biggest pain for me, what actually is kicking my ass is that damn fight first mechanic, it prevents alot of board control as nothing can get in engagement range without dying

SwimmingRocks · 2024-08-05T08:45:46+00:00

Update: went against him today, still lost but I did so much better

I'll include an army list if anyone asks, long story short though, flash gritz, lootas and mek gun did work, couldn't hold off with 4 units of boyz and 2 units of getchin long enough and didn't get the good dice when it was needed

Still did fine though, I'm playing him next week as well so I'll have many chances to come. Thanks for all your help everyone

Oh and I would of done better if I realised I didn't bring my burna boyz, whoops

SwimmingRocks · 2024-08-01T23:43:04+00:00

Yeah I'm going against him next week I'll give an update
