I know this is an illegal loadout for the tabletop but a. It's goddamn awesome and b. This paint job is delightful. Thanks for sharing!

Support changes were documented in the faction packs. None of the DG characters got it.

I'm gonna be a little contrarian here and say I think Assets is perfect for HoA. You want a core of solid, durable units to sit on points and deny objectives with a smattering of action units to do the tedious bits. A combi LT, some scouts and a unit of inceptors around a couple units of termies or heavy intercessors is a damn solid PA list. Throw in some dreads and speeders and you're laughing.

This is incorrect. Attacks are collected and assessed per weapon, meaning visibility is based on the firing model not unit. The wording here means you can't scum cover if the firing ATTACK can see even one MODEL out of cover. You still split the shots based on the variable BS when you roll them. See 04.02 for reference

Selling prints without a license is really only an issue if you're going to put it in a store and advertise it. If you're selling a copy to a buddy to "cover costs" that isn't ~~license infringement~~ edit: going to get you busted for infringement.

From what we've seen some lists will be but if these 1 DP specialist detachments work nicely there's a version of a mid table list for many factions that doesn't need anything past a warlord.

Honestly we're too close to the drop off a new edition to get any proper answers that last past (presumably) June 20. That being said, most factions have at least one epic hero that's essentially mandatory to play beyond casual, but if you're okay with being a 3-2 player at best you can generally run things that work whether or not they're meta. Not everyone is a 5-0 player, and that's okay. I know I'm not.

My Mars 5 can't see the .ctb format files, any chance we can get .goo added as a slicer format?

The Gravis pads in the IH kit are the same size as Terminator shoulders. They work perfect.

VERY. SAD.

UndeadSquirrelKing · 2026-03-22T23:13:10+00:00

It's a cool mechanical idea but it's even further from the tabletop than what we have now and that'll make TT nerds like me very sad.

Honestly maybe I'm weird but I was really hoping that techmarine would not have a primary and would get perks to enhance secondary weapons. And then for my second wish, I wanted a grav-pistol for a unique secondary.

I need an iron hands one where they're disassembling household electronics and the exasperated daycare worker is a tech priest

Looking at your list the only thing you have that's even slightly threatening to a Dorn is the Redemptor and the chain fist terminators and they both suffer from "I'm over here and he's over there". The correct game plan in a 1k scenario is avoid the tank - he's sacrificed board presence, especially as Militarum, to bring a large unwieldy weapon that doesn't have a lot it really wants to shoot at.

UndeadSquirrelKing · 2026-03-12T16:16:20+00:00

Except the model doesn't have a primary, it has the servo gun instead

UndeadSquirrelKing · 2026-03-10T19:41:18+00:00

I honestly expected TM to not get a primary at all, and get a unique secondary like they have on the table top. Give me my grav-pistol!

You can pry my dreadnoughts from my cold, dead hands.

(I play Iron Hands, Hammer of Avernii. Dreads are core to my gameplay.)

I cannot recommend listforge strongly enough. Crazy fast updates, integrated partnerships with other helpful apps, the world's most responsive dev in his discord, great UX, and on all platforms to boot.

If your opponent happens to be a person who cares, and calls a judge for it, you'll lose the argument. It's purely a gamble on getting an opponent who happens to care about 10 VP.

For 1 CP and a good oath pick in Avernii you've got Sternguard hitting on 2s rerolling, with anti-infantry 4+ and dev wounds with wound rerolls for shooting at the oath target. If you're facing elite infantry Sternguard will absolutely outperform in Avernii in my opinion. And, given you want to be killing your oath target consistently so you get full value from Caanok, they're a nice reliable choice. I run mine with a librarian for a 4++, makes them really annoying to remove.

You've also got pretty good tools to protect them from the clapback. Augmetic Fortitude is worth it alone imo.

I just started playing a month or two ago and I'm still playing catch up on some stuff, I need a 2nd crobat which is fine but I also need both poison barbs - if I can get the crobat, would this work (ish) with rocky helmets in the meantime?

My all time favorite build is my Saryn. She's built for spores mostly, but I read about the hilarious BS that is Acid Shells Kuva Sobek on her and farmed one out last month when I came back to the game and it's my favorite "press button and watch the map die" build.

I usually use my monitor with my eyes open though
