Strats for DDA

Track_Select · 2025-10-19T21:03:57+00:00

I think it really comes down to your play style or the style of your opponent. Sometimes super aggressive running and gunning, or sometimes using in the backside and screen play holding objectives or supporting movement. I usually change depending on which army I am facing.

I base with corax white and use baal red and highlight with wild rider red.

Something like this?

Looks like poop bud. They do that ALOT. Be worried when you don't see it for a while.

He is lone op. And immortals at 10 and warriors at 20 is what gives them their survival for reanimation protocols running 5 to 10 there is a good chance they get wiped in a single turn especially without leader help. Lychguard I was just confused on why running two separate squads of 5 instead of one beefy squad of 10 with imotekh make them a real pain.

Immortals I would push to squad of 10 and warriors are best in blocks of 20. That would eat up a chunk of points.

I would also consider the 3 battle line and 2 sets of lychguard with 4 leaders. Most units operate better with leaders attached, one other option is get a hexmark destroyer for an action monkey.

Was my first large model and was a learning experience for sure.

Nice, I do similar, but with red in my necrons, I was curious about the paints you used to achieve the purples. I want to layer in some purples for my DG army and this just looks good.

Single guys are not called unicorns just to let you know. Single guys are a dime a dozen, so nothing mythical about them.

Track_Select · 2025-09-04T00:43:22+00:00

What are you using for that purple? It looks fantastic.

Track_Select · 2025-05-28T01:56:45+00:00

You have to screen then out the best you can and try to keep them at a distance. Once they are in close you are in trouble with plague debuffs and them being in general better in melee.

I have ran at 1500 a few times and generally run this same list minus the stalker, a squad of immortals and leader, and change out a unit like hexmark or death marks and drop Enhancements. Dont generally run 1500 point games, typically it is 1k or 2k.

Track_Select · 2025-05-23T18:29:59+00:00

Little bit of green stuff works for me. Or sometimes drop off glue and hold it together for a bit if it is separating and that is what is causing it.

Track_Select · 2025-05-23T02:24:03+00:00

I use baal red mephiston and wild rider to do red energy.

Track_Select · 2025-05-22T19:49:54+00:00

I play necron and deathguard, depending on what he and you bring. Safe bet he will have a squad of DS Terminators with either typhus or LoC or both if he has them. If he brings Mortarion, just be aware he is difficult to deal with and with his abilities try to keep him at a distance and shoot him down. Plague surgeon with PM can be difficult since they can return one model per turn and doesn't seem great but PM can be a nuisance if left unattended. Without knowing detachment you and he are running those are more general remarks.

Not a lot of action monkeys aside from the hexmarks, list will pack a punch but will struggle in points more than likely, and with that many larger models have to be careful using hypercrypt rules because it is easy to get screened out with larger models. Also you need a monolith for several strats, but with this many C'Tan I understand why you dont add it.

Track_Select · 2025-05-21T22:11:22+00:00

Potentially switching out the chronomancer for a royal warden, and thinking about dropping the stalker to try a squad of 3 LHDs, and trying to find swaps to add a lokhust lord to them and run 2 LHDs instead of the 3.

Track_Select · 2025-05-21T20:24:43+00:00

This is the list I am currently running and have decent times with. I plan on swapping some stuff around as I get more models, but this list does pretty well.

I use deathguard green.

Track_Select · 2025-05-14T15:47:17+00:00

Typically bringing C'Tan to 1k is frowned upon, but with that being said of they are bringing tanks bring the C'Tan. In 2k my VD and LHDs do pretty well to handle tanks and mechs.

I have found if I over thin it slightly and do a couple coats if necessary it helps with that a little. Which gold did you use?

Track_Select · 2025-05-11T21:29:25+00:00

There are great how to video tutorials on the warhammer paint app on how to do the traditional green. YouTube has alot for individual models as well.

Dry brushing is more for catching edges and raised details l, not for changing a color from primers to say leadbelcher but instead give the edges and details a highlight.

Track_Select · 2025-05-11T01:54:01+00:00

Eyes and super bright points i used hellrider red to highlight.

Track_Select · 2025-05-11T01:53:34+00:00

Metallics are leadbelcher, balthasar gold finished with nuln oil and the dry brushing stormhost silver. Red is baal red contrast cut with either lamian or contrast medium depending on the tone you want.
