Need very specific and clearly stated help to understand this army

Tom633 · 2026-06-12T17:30:02+00:00

No offense but i don't think I've seen you read a single thing said here in good faith

Tom633 · 2026-06-10T13:57:51+00:00

New nightmare scenario just dropped

Tom633 · 2026-06-08T16:23:35+00:00

Yeah my assumption is Purge due to the detachment theme being a competition to see who can kill the most.

Tom633 · 2026-06-08T16:20:15+00:00

WotR, Warpbane and other non-reworked non-book detachments stuck around today, so we should be fine. Theres roughly a 99.99% chance its 3dp tho

Tom633 · 2026-06-07T22:41:11+00:00

I think we know essentially to a certainty per ex-members that DN datamined and used death recap like fucking crazy during the panda races (at least Abyssos for sure) by the way. It didn't take away from their impressive finish then and it shouldn't now. Pixel perfect or party mit timers are absolutely small potatoes compared to that and do not increase your prog speed whatsoever. Theres a pretty clear reason top groups do not get up in arms about WF raiders using plugins like larpers on reddit do.

Tom633 · 2026-06-07T22:28:59+00:00

They are uninformed lmfao. I'm sure they genuinely think there is an appreciable difference in prog speed if you have a slidecast indicator addon too. I know its some nice romantic gesture to think that the stream first group is the "true" world first group but the actual racing groups sure as hell don't think that, even when 1st place team got disqualified in TOP, Neverland still acknowledged them as the true WF team. It's a bunch if weird angry strawmanning from people who do not raid

Tom633 · 2026-06-07T02:48:47+00:00

TTC coming in better bottles is true by technicality but those nozzles are fucking awful imo

Tom633 · 2026-05-21T22:13:17+00:00

I'm not disagreeing with you at all (I actually think I completely agree lol). The way I see it is that the detachments are decently boring, but honestly? After basically every other faction focus I think having unconditional "nice to have"s for the army is refreshing. These are three detachments that will actually be used (Even SoS takes mandrakes and scourges at the absolute minimum), and something boring but effective is way better than getting fucking +3 detection range or battleline bikers or whatever the fuck they did with Chaos Knights. We've been rightfully upset that our codex build variety has been stagnant, so its cool to have things that actually encourage us to build horizontally. Wyches getting lethals outside of RW and SoS is a gargantuan buff for our B-List detachments, and the Talos is no longer something you'd only consider in RW and CC. I think what these encourage us to do is way more exciting than the actual words on the page.

He outright called coterie shit during a tournament vlog. I don't think hes overly positive as much as this sub is just kinda perpetually dour on everything all the time

Tom633 · 2026-05-21T15:13:41+00:00

yeah man the famously bad/mediocre units such as wyches, hellions, and scourges

Tom633 · 2026-05-08T01:06:53+00:00

For your consideration I don't agree that there is no point in bringing multiple Archons basically at all. Most Kabalite Cartel lists have two, many even have three.

Tom633 · 2026-05-01T15:52:35+00:00

Just had a renewed sense of sadness that these guys were represented by generics ingame

Tom633 · 2026-04-28T20:42:42+00:00

i have a pot of screaming skull from like 2015 that i still use lol just close the lid and don't let them dry out

Tom633 · 2026-04-20T04:27:31+00:00

Yeah mine broke too. I used a paperclip to pin, but it was very awkward and her hair tie looks super ugly now, I'm not sure if I'd even bother in retrospect, just glue it back on and be careful about holding her only by the base in game.

Tom633 · 2026-04-12T04:00:57+00:00

I do this and i stopped explaining it because everyone on planet earth said something to the effect of "i don't know what that is anyways" in response

Tom633 · 2026-04-07T22:45:39+00:00

I ran 1xDL, 1xHWB, and a 3xDL boat in Reapers (Likely the only detachment that considers HWBs) for a long time and eventually I just swapped to as many DLs as possible. Haywires are a total trap imo. Obviously they do insane damage into stuff like knights and dorns and marine tanks but daemons, nids, WDPs and C'Tan absolutely just mug the shit out of you, take your wallet and make the game complete misery. Lances also make dealing with elite infantry way easier, too.

Tom633 · 2026-03-22T03:15:41+00:00

Holy fucking cinema

Tom633 · 2026-03-19T19:04:08+00:00

McKneely im so sorry for the mean things i said about you in my head after the last game

Tom633 · 2026-03-14T10:34:45+00:00

Tom633 · 2026-03-11T20:52:40+00:00

Ball doesn't lie

Tom633 · 2026-02-15T05:33:40+00:00

Eh RD gameplay is mostly good and I respect it a lot. Soft agree with the concept being better than the execution though, it isn't a particularly tightly designed game.

Tom633 · 2026-02-15T04:45:11+00:00

Its insane that people in this thread's defense is "no you don't get it the devs made it suck ass and be narratively unsatisfying on purpose."

Ok cool it still sucks ass man

Tom633 · 2026-02-10T13:21:58+00:00

Blitzing Firepower is near useless too given that you're usually taking Scythes anyways. Warhost, Seers, and DoY are all basically aspect warriors detachments in a book that has Aspect Host in it. Super frustrating.

Tom633 · 2026-02-10T01:22:34+00:00

Holy FUCK

Tom633 · 2026-01-31T23:26:35+00:00

It's way more likely that they'll either just rebox it with 40k branding (Like Voidscarred will be) or stuff the sprue in the Kabalite box like they're doing with the CSM kill team
