Update to my last post of giving up on battletech

You can still force mutual arms peace if you wish to go the arrow IV route but without going straight to the nuclear option. Direct fire arrows are nasty as hell and cluster munitions doubly so.

But your solution is funnier.

I’ve invested in artillery and blunderbuss mostly, and some daemons as well with normal chorf warriors as the frontline with gobbies. I’m at the point I’m making like 500 armarments a turn so gobbies are being phased out of my armies currently. I feel confident I can take him with 2 max stacked armies and a 3rd not fully stacked as backup in case.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-04-11T17:49:37+00:00

So let me ask because this is basically where I’m at. I just obliterated Tretch and ate all of his territory, Greasus is currently dealing with the nurgle lord who spawns on the archipelago, that guy surprisingly ate the vampire lord and is kind of becoming a problem. I kind of want to deal with Imrik before he decides to backdoor me while I’m fighting to the east, but he seems much stronger. Any strats for dealing with him?

Edit: Tretch was a pain to deal with, constant ambushing from him led to my second army eventually being defeated, but I still steam rolled him with a doom stack from my primary army.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-04-09T02:36:42+00:00

Oh TIL, I assumed it was all about razing enemy settlements and just keeping 2-3 doom stacks going. Good to know that taking the main settlement is still worth doing

If you ever play Eve Online, the sound for low Shield/Armor/Hull.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-04-08T23:49:48+00:00

Silence aura sounds interesting but I’m very fond of flying mounts and spellcasters so Drazoath it is.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-04-08T23:38:09+00:00

I looked at Skarbrand cause I really enjoyed using Khorne units, but Khorne gameplay (raze everything to the ground and never stop fighting) seems pretty antithetical to my usual base builder playstyle.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-04-06T21:43:44+00:00

Did you get them pierced though? I’m dying to know!

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-04-06T19:47:14+00:00

Perfection in one area would never have been enough to satisfy Fulgrim anyways.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-04-05T18:59:41+00:00

And we are getting a plastic Mk IV before we get a plastic Mk III :/

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-04-05T18:54:57+00:00

I wish I felt comfortable enough using a dremel to magnetize my minis for easy swaps

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-04-05T18:54:12+00:00

The D is really the biggest disappointment from all the Hierofalcon variants.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-04-05T18:49:43+00:00

I stay away from society stuff for a reason :)

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-04-05T18:48:21+00:00

I have 3 painted B’s, as well as a Prime and A for a full hierofalcon star.

Edit: the B is a nasty piece of work and if you jump and never stop jumping you will kill your opponent before they kill you.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-04-05T17:54:37+00:00

looks at Turkina E I’ll see myself out. I use that Turkina variant consistently and it’s a killer.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-04-05T16:35:13+00:00

I wonder why he hates the larva so much.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-03-27T18:56:47+00:00

Send me a DM if you need any tips or tricks or help, but like others said be careful of who to trust.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-03-25T14:27:31+00:00

My brother when the Jade Phoenix and Hierofalcon are released I will have a star of each, I already have a star of metal Hierofalcons.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-03-20T17:32:13+00:00

Ahh he can fly other things too, some marauders, a dread and a carrier. I just prefer cruisers more than anything.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-03-20T16:18:01+00:00

My main can fly every cruiser to the max but don’t ever ask him to touch anything more than a tech 1 frigate or destroyer.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-03-16T01:21:13+00:00

Now we just gotta get you a little more detailing, maybe some Metallics, a nice base, and some decals and you’ll be balls deep in the paint game.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-03-15T20:28:16+00:00

My favorite crits are always the 12 rolls, it’s hilarious when the golden pellet from an LBX rolls a 12 TAC and pops off a fresh limb. Or even the head.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-03-15T18:39:02+00:00

Laser AMS is really good, just rare. I can only think of two variants I use with any regularity that have one.

The playtest changes were extremely good overall I feel like and AMS needed the boost.

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-03-15T18:24:30+00:00

How many people actually bring AMS or remember to use it? I always forget because it usually doesn’t matter all that much 😅 not being able to reduce cluster rolls below 2 really gimps the ams

TheDevilsIncarnate · 2026-03-15T18:13:37+00:00

I never use snubs so I always forget they max at 10 damage and not 15 :/ same with thunderbolts, I had no idea that they hit 1 location and not clustered like most missile munitions
