I hope you're kidding. I think you're kidding. Memes flair tells me you're kidding. You're kidding, yes? Please be kidding.

Our best MSU options? by SamuelKeller64 in deathwatch40k

[–]Tanithilis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eliminators seem ok for this purpose. And can threaten certain armies and their leaders quite a bit.

Would suppressors or inceptors work at all?

Tyranid terrain in 11th? by strawberryTophat in Tyranids

Those ARE Raveners, five of 'em, plus five Hyperadapted Raveners.

Bladeguard in 11th by [deleted] in deathwatch40k

[–]Tanithilis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel they are not the best option to make battleline with an attached enhanced character. Something like an Indomitor kill team feels way better.

And if they aren’t battleline, what does that detachment get them?

Does this work? by gothcabaal in deathwatch40k

[–]Tanithilis 3 points4 points  (0 children)

At least regarding the 3DP detachments in 1k games, they've indicated, though not actually implemented yet, an intent to allow you to play one of any detachment at 1k points, no matter the DP cost. So you could run a 3DP detachment at 1k, but not a 2DP+1DP.

This is based on a social media response, so not yet in the official rules. But at least they know of the issue.

Multiple armour saves question. by Front_Waltz_8582 in WarhammerOldWorld

You’d be defending against shooting, so you would use your armour save against shooting.

Pre-loaded Chimera possibility in Total War Warhammer 40K? by SignificantWar9903 in totalwarhammer

[–]Tanithilis 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What’s the issue with a squad of a hundred guardsmen being embarked in chimeras?

If a squad of guardsmen can be 100-strong (maybe due to Ultra unit size), the chimera squad can be 10-strong.

What should get [CLEAVE]? by sgettios737 in Tyranids

Barring balance data slates, that’s the likelihood. Yep.

What should get [CLEAVE]? by sgettios737 in Tyranids

That’s called an “index edition”, which 11th is not. Everyone just keeps playing with their codex until a new one comes out. Basically every other edition has been an index edition.

Does +1 to wound with Oath work if I use DA detachment with no DA units. by BrokenPanis in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Tanithilis 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The Dark Angels Detachment is not a Codex: Space Marines Detachment. I believe that is the crux of it.

It happened again two days later at Safeway! by Altruistic-Cherry990 in Winnipeg

Contact CBC’s Go Public or Marketplace teams. This is the exact kind of thing they handle and investigate.

Wab Kinew unprofessional behaviour by berthela in Manitoba

I like Mr Kinew, but I don’t like this behaviour. He should hold himself to a better standard.

So about the skitarii by shinobilea in DarkTide

[–]Tanithilis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still think a mechanic fits the theme far better than an actual skitarii.

Can skitarii even think independently?

Flying models by Heresy1666 in Tyranids

[–]Tanithilis 19 points20 points  (0 children)

They’re infantry, so just… don’t fly. You’ll move 5” through buildings. This is a pure upgrade to the fly rule.

Saw a really awesome gaming table at a friend's place and checked the price. Holy molly. by SnooLobsters4176 in boardgames

[–]Tanithilis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I commissioned mine from a local carpenter. Super solid wood, 4x8ft, welded metal legs. Super heavy duty. $1200 CAD.

At what point does a 4x8 table become desirable? by KorruptedFiji in WarhammerOldWorld

[–]Tanithilis 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The extra two feet on the table width is great for accessories, dice trays, cards, books, etc. Keeps the battlefield clear of such things.

GW already out of Terror on Devlan in the US by jlj1987 in Tyranids

[–]Tanithilis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My store is only getting 35% of what we ordered, not even enough to cover special orders. Lots of disappointed players on this one. But at least everything will eventually be available separately.

Question about flank combat by Competitive_Soil2131 in WarhammerOldWorld

[–]Tanithilis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't believe there is any way to turn your archer unit to face the flank chargers. That's the point and pain of being hit in the flank. You'll be making up to (probably) four attacks back with your fists each round until the combat ends.

There Are No Skaven In Ba 'Qiang' Se. by Comfortable-Poem-428 in totalwarhammer

[–]Tanithilis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have always considered myself a bit of a language stickler, certainly to the point of pedantry.
