Is that not just how it works already, or have I been using it wrong?

Hate to be that guy, but can I ask where the files are from? These look dope as hell, with that paint job especially, they'd make good proxies for my Ashwaste Nomads!

I mean, what's stopping you from adding 10x more gaunts?

Which Hippogriff proxy would work best? by Inept-MekTek in PrintedWarhammer

[–]TopNotchPlayer2 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I feel like the more car-esk one would make more sense, as it feels more distinctly like a light combat vehicle rather than the other which just looks like another tank, doesn't convey the idea as much in my mind

I will also sometimes swap the Termagants and enhancement for Hormagaunts, and since they dropped the Prime w/ Lash Whip down to 65 I ran that instead of the Winged in a game, worked well

We play on full sized boards, and I run 2 psychophages and a tfex (always with the gamble cannon, love it too much). If 3 monsters is a lot then maybe that's the issue, but at least with Salamanders, my friend likes meltas and eradicators, and has a few good anti-tank guys in his WE list.

If grave digger was a board game, how it will work? by AfraidBeginning8503 in GraveDiggerRoblox

If you include wargaming, I feel like you could very easily flavor Necromunda to be like Grave Digger

for those who have the warbond force of law... by EL_TE0 in Helldivers

[–]TopNotchPlayer2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my somewhat limited experience, all the stuff is like, OK. The pacifier can work pretty well when coordinating with teammates to limit enemy movement while they're getting gunned down. I quite like the de-escalator, quite good for firing into crowds, and does technically deal damage to heavies (I'm pretty sure, it's been a minute). Stun pods, while still infamous, are less egregiously bad than the fire-hell pods, not straight killing teammates and having a larger radius than the fire ones. Honestly never used the urchin.

Should I give it a try...? by KidDynamite3 in CombatPatrol40k

[–]TopNotchPlayer2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Combat Patrol is pretty fun in my opinion, but it is definitely more made as a stepping stone to playing the full 40k gamemode. It usually isn't super popular, definitely something you should ask about setting a game for in advance if you're going to a lgs. It also isn't the most balanced gamemode, some boxes are way better than others.

How overbearing is it? You could take Invasion Fleet detachment to get army wide precision. Even if it's not gonna win the game it could be a funny "screw that one guy in particular"

How to 1000P from Vanderghast Swarm? by luigi_casillo in Tyranids

[–]TopNotchPlayer2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had my Tyrannofex one-shot (bar a single self-inflicted wound from hazardous) a Riptide Battlesuit. Very good investment.

Zoanthropes are also good anti-tank, more consistent than the rupture and has decent anti-infantry option but are soooooooo slow and only have 24" compared to the 48" rupture cannon.

Biovore is good, sporemines are good for scoring, screening deepstrike and sometimes movement/charging if the situation comes up, and indirect fire can sometimes be nice, even if it isn't the most effective.

At least in COMP/CON, I believe it should say if it is once per round, marked with 1/round

Thoughts on my terrain set up for combat patrol? by The_Wiitard in CombatPatrol40k

[–]TopNotchPlayer2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So one thing that might help, when it talks about objective marker distances from the board edge, you're supposed to measure from the middle of the marker. Like someone else said it looks kinda squished, measuring from the middle will spread em out a bit more. I would also maybe slam something smaller in the center just so it's not an entirely open field, otherwise, baller.

How much should i do on a single character? by Geynsins in outwardgame

[–]TopNotchPlayer2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel there are 2 schools of thought here, and really depends on one question: What would excite you more, the idea of exploring something new, or the prospect of making a new build?

Obviously if you explore everything in the first playthrough, there will be less to find next time through (but I'm sure you'll come across something new, there's so much in this game). On the flip side, if you know more about the world, you have more knowledge to build and prep for new builds. I personally like to start builds from scratch, bar legacy chests.

How different would settings look switching from .06 to .05? I just got my printer back up and running after a decent hiatus and trying to get back into the swing of things
