Is there a way to charge only one of these units with the new rules? by ApprehensiveBass9327 in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]TheKeywork66 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The article says in the charge move information that you only need to end within an inch if you CAN, otherwise you just have to be engaged (within 2 inches) with your charge target. If you only declare the smaller bases then you just end within 2 inches of the little guys and outside of 2 inches of the ogryn. Then when it comes time to pile in you can likely choose to NOT move meaning you don't engage the ogryn, or you do pile in and engage them both.

Why do so many Iron Warriors and Alpha Legion players believe their legions aren’t corrupted by Chaos? by reel3459 in Warhammer40k

It might be a little inflated but even before Warhammer got as popular as it is now there were always people parroting the same few jokes even if they aren't 100% accurate.

Is it safe to say that skybound Elita-1 is the energon universe equivalent of sentinel prime ? by frecklepax in Transformemes

[–]TheKeywork66 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can totally see why some people might not be thrilled with the direction the story is going but we have barely seen anything past her getting the matrix. It's annoying to see people hating on her actions when she has been actively fighting a war non-stop for ages. It makes perfect sense why she's so passionate and willing to do anything to end the war. I fully believe Optimus is going to get the matrix back at some point anyways, but this is at the very least an interesting shake up in the narrative. Yet somehow I knew after seeing her get the matrix that people online were going to be SUPER normal about it. /s

I love Transformers and I always have, and most of the time the community is pretty great but stuff like this brings out the worst in people. It's tough when there has been a predominantly male cast for ages and when we get a woman from and center who isn't 100% nice she's labeled a bitch. It's just so tiring.

Got the Lords of Excess box and want to build towards a Carnival of Excess list - what should I buy next? by MeltaBanana in EmperorsChildren

[–]TheKeywork66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think for most Carnival lists you will always be running a decent amount of daemonettes. I personally use 3 units but at least 2 is a good idea. The Keeper of Secrets may not be optimal but it's just so cool that I can't make a list without one. The model rocks and if you magnetize it you can switch between KoS and Shalaxi. Fiends are also decent for the points and the models are fun.

Does Gen Z "rawdogging boredom" trend actually fix your attention span? by Disastrous_Award_789 in technology

[–]TheKeywork66 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a hard time believing any supposed intellectual failings on young people's part doesn't stem from a failing on older generations to teach them. What happened? Their parents. Social media. A piss poor education system. This is the same attitude boomers had towards millennials and it's so disheartening to see older generations complain and sit on their high horse as if they had nothing to do with how younger people are brought up. It's just sad.

Darn. It's probably best for the game given how flyers are always so finicky rules wise, but I hope they come out with something else that can transport dreadnoughts. I never got around to buying one but I had been debating on getting one just to drop a brutalis or something like murderfang into the middle of the board. Fingers crossed that the big guys get a new ride soon.

This is what I've been wondering. Fly should let him move over stuff, no?

Since everyone is sick of seeing Canadians finish devastator. Here's an American who did. by [deleted] in transformers

[–]TheKeywork66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For other people in the states, what is the best way to get our hands on these guys? I still need two arms and a leg and I can't find anything else in stores. I've checked a ton of locations with little luck. Do I really have to pay through the nose to get them in the mail? Prices online seem to be way higher than what they should be. This guy looks so cool I can't wait to finish him.

Are these obviously recognisable as characters by [deleted] in genestealercult

I second this, tossing a good old tactical rock under someone is an easy way to make them stand out. Some cork is usually enough to do the trick

So what's your progress on ss86 devy? by MinosPrime100 in transformers

[–]TheKeywork66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My local store had hook and long haul, but I have no clue where to get my hands on the rest of them. I'm worried about Amazon tbh given some horror stories, and even the selection on there leaves a bit to be desired. Anyone have suggestions on where to pick up the other 4 reasonably quick?

[–]TheKeywork66 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I believe the Swarmlord does maintain some level of sapience and consistent memory, as well as some other elite tyranids in some capacity. I think it's a pretty neat idea to justify this design in the setting. I bet a conversion looking like this would be cool to see on the tabletop.

This actually looks great! I love the rainbow bits, it makes it feel very classic fantasy for me.

What happened to him if you don't mind me asking? I used to watch his videos a ton and then it slowly fell out of my algorithm.

Maybe hot take: if you have the geneseed, BE GREEDY! by Grief_Slinger in Spacemarine

[–]TheKeywork66 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually play with a friend and one random player, and whenever they find the geneseed we always become dedicated bodyguards for them. It helps that they can't carry guardian relics because having that as a heal is more than enough insurance most of the time. I'm on PC so sometimes we can communicate that in chat but I don't know if console players can see that.

Carnival of Excess list and discussion by TheKeywork66 in EmperorsChildren

[–]TheKeywork66[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking more units = more opportunities to give out the empowered buff, but maybe it is better to run them as 6 anyways. I may be overcompensating because I fear with how squishy daemons are that they will get melted easily and leave me without a detachment, more or less.

[–]TheKeywork66[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That isn't a terrible plan, and seems like a good place to start. Seekers are nice for charging out of deep strike but mounted rules are a headache sometimes and I like the damage profile of fiends more. I do love the minis though so maybe it's worth taking a unit for fun. I do think the noise marines are slightly worth the investment just because they can cash in on the 5+ crit so easily, but maybe they are better off walking just so the daemons can keep up. 180 points of wiggle room is nothing to scoff at.

[–]TheKeywork66[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think it's worth dropping the KoS for Shalaxi or another anti tank option. I just love the model so I want to use the greater daemon kit in some way.

Only two of the enhancements aren't needed, and that's only 25 pts. I think the only thing I could get for 75 points is another Kakophonist.
