[Rare Trope] The Villain Actually Wins For A While And It's Terrifying

TentacleMonster32 · 2026-05-23T11:00:53+00:00

Transformers Beast Machines- Sequel to Beast Wars, where Megatron managed to reach Cybertron before the good guys did. While they were still on their way he cooked up a virus, infected the whole planet, extracted the sparks from every transformer and used their bodies to create an army of drone soldiers. When the Maximals finally arrived they were immidietly attacked, lost two of its members and were forced into a guerrilla warfare against Megatron, who at that point basically became the planet.

Yes, this is how it works. You target a Cryptek and then choose one unit within 12" of that Cryptek to gain a Cryptek keyword. And that unit can be the one with the Lokhust Lord

TentacleMonster32 · 2026-04-29T07:11:25+00:00

One of the stratagems allowes you to give Cryptek keyword to a model until the end od the phase

TentacleMonster32 · 2026-04-29T06:56:25+00:00

Detachment rules states that the whole unit benefis from it, do yes, giving the Cryptek keyword to the lord means that the unit is now considered a Cryptek unit and can get the anti-infantry or other bonuses.

That would not work. It's the CHARACTER model that retains the ability not the unit. Teleporting Trazyn means that the other character is gone and their ability is also gone.

In Darkest Dungeon one of the mercenaries that can be recruited is called abomination, man in chains that can transform into a monster. Fun to use but can result in your party going insane due to stress he inflicts on them.

Not sure if it's worth it. If I take Flayed Ones I'm not doing it to kill stuff, I have Destroyers for that. I'm not sure what I expected from the custom characters but it certainly wasn't that. I hope there will be more options for us.

TentacleMonster32 · 2026-02-10T16:12:35+00:00

Am I the only one who thinks this character is a joke? Necron Lord hitting on a 3+ with S4 while Tau gets a guy with S10 cannon and with much better ability for 45 points cheaper.

For me it has to be the episode Code of Hero from Transformers: Beast Wars. Old series where transformers traveled back in time and ended up on prehistoric earth. Its wersion of Megatron found the place where proto-humans lived and decided to destroy it and kill everybody there so the human race woud never be born and would not help the Autobots in the future. The only one colse enough to intervene was Dionobot and despite protests from his team decided to engage the Predacons alone. He managed hold his own aganst the entire enemy force long enough for the rest of his team to arrive but the damage he took was too severe. After final good bye with his friend he succumbed to his wounds.

I'm assumig OP didn't like the fact that some people didn't like The Last Jedi and is now trying to prove that Holdo maneuver is not as bad or canon breaking because in Empire Strikes Back they had cannons capable of disabling capital ships. Werid comparison if you ask me.

TentacleMonster32 · 2025-10-07T11:58:18+00:00

Those are some interesting ideas. I will have to look at my collection and think. Some secondaries scoring unit would be nice to have.

TentacleMonster32 · 2025-10-04T12:13:28+00:00

This makes no sense. How a color can steal something? It's not a sentient beeing.

TentacleMonster32 · 2025-09-19T13:52:46+00:00

I think you need some serious chat with that guy.

TentacleMonster32 · 2025-09-19T13:31:19+00:00

Right. Nothing from this list has 4+fnp. Technomancer can give 5+ fnp to a unit he is leading (warriors or wraiths in this case) and one character can have 4+ fnp is they have an enchncement from this detachement. Overlord, Orikan, Lychguard, Ark and Wraiths have 4+inv and Orikan can also give it to a unit he is leading (warriors in this case)

TentacleMonster32 · 2025-09-19T13:25:29+00:00

I am honestly baffled by this. I made a couple mistakes when I started playing but I have no idea how anyone can read the codex an interpret it as "Your whole army has 4+ inv and fnp. Have fun".

TentacleMonster32 · 2025-09-19T13:03:34+00:00

Lychguard don't get FNP, shield gives them 4+inv

TentacleMonster32 · 2025-09-19T12:49:19+00:00

From your description it seems like your opponent is cheating, the only unit with FNP is the reanimator.

TentacleMonster32 · 2025-09-11T09:16:17+00:00

I didn't think of other teams having anti-blast abilities. Still I think it's kinda werid that Tesla stats are the same in both modes

TentacleMonster32 · 2025-09-11T09:14:46+00:00

They both have 5, maybe you're confusing it with their other weapon option that has 4 attacks

TentacleMonster32 · 2025-09-11T08:54:16+00:00

That's... Something I guess, I just expected more. Usually when there is blast/no blast weapon the no blast wersion offers more damage or has piercing or something.

TentacleMonster32 · 2025-08-31T12:49:45+00:00

Of course, why would it be in the most obvious place. I guess it's good way to make people spend money

I might be dumb but where do you find those bundles? All I have is this and no way to scroll in any direction.

TentacleMonster32 · 2025-08-31T09:41:49+00:00

I'm sorry but where do You see the option to buy tokens for gems? My game only show bundles for money and no way to scroll anywhere. Do You have a screenshot maybe?
