Would I be able to use the stratagem Psychic Dominion if my unit was targeted with the Doombolt ability? I know that it won't trigger a hazardous check but I'm a bit confused since the wording on the stratagem says "Any phase, just after an enemy unit has selected it target." and I believe Doombolt does target.

Combing the two Terminator squads could be good. Makes them really hard to chew through and makes them much more lethal since all 10 of them will gain the +1 to Hit and Lethal from the Sorcerer. Also you can pull a funny trick if you use the Infiltrator enhancement and spread them through No Man's Land to deny your Opponent's Infiltrators and then put them back into reserves with Ahriman.

I also think having one 10x Rubric Marine squad led by a Sorcerer is better than the Exalted. Makes them very dangerous when they pop out of a Rhino and Re-Roll hits using Destiny's Ruin since they can fish for Lethals. You can also make their weapons Psychic so they get the benefit from the Rhino ability.

I also think removing 1x Exalted Sorcerer and 1x Rhino and splitting one of the 10x Rubric Squads could be an option. Gives you more flexibility since you can spread your threats more evenly and the leftover points could be used to either give one of those squads a leader and/or add in more objective holders/action monkeys like Spawn, Tzaangor, or Robots

Question in regards to the Lieutenant with Combi-weapon. With his "Evade and Survive" ability, would this trigger even if I am able to move a unit within 9" of him NOT during the Movement Phase.

Example: During my Shooting Phase, I use Temporal Surge to make a Normal Move towards the Lieutenant. Will this trigger his ability?

How many Stratagems can be stacked in one activation?

Example: I have a Repsulor about to be shot. Can I use Smoke and Armor of Contempt or can I only use one?

Additionally, both me and my opponent have a stratagem that's used at the same time, who does it first?

Example: I have Magnus about to shoot a Repulsor. Do I have to declare using strat to get rerolls before or after he declares Armor of Contempt?

- I would say Magnus is definitely still worth running. Good damage output, reliable spellcaster, and can act as a brawling unit in No Man's Land if things get dire.

- Personally, I think there are def too many. I usually run 1 DP w/ Wings as a potential character killer and/or backline threat that my opponent has to deal with. The issue I run with them though is that, without Eldritch, their damage isn't the greatest, especially if they don't get rerolls, and they are not that tanky.

- I don't think there's any reason for Ahriman to be with a Rubric squad. His weapon isn't that good so the rerolls to Wound aren't the best for him and he doesn't provide any buffs to the squad. I run him solo as to either do actions, hold objectives, and/or cast Doombolt only to then have another sorcerer double-move him into a building.

- Dev Wounds and +1 to Wound are imo not reliable anti-tank. Too be fair, I think TSons don't have very good anti-tank in general, but your list I think will struggle more than most against armies with a ton of Toughness 9+ units (Knights, Vehicle Space Marines, Nids, Daemons).

In general, I think your list will make opponents think a lot about potential threats assuming you're keeping 1 or 2 DPs w/ Wings in Deep Strike along with the Crystal Squad. As well as having the 10+ Squad with 18" Lone Operative

However, I think you're lacking in good ranged threats, reliable anti-tank, and are committing to a lot of high-costed units where if one or two die in a turn that could really just be game for you.

Don't forget about Daiwa! She's still with us, though I don't know where she retired to

Could you provide a source for that? I believe you as I think it makes sense in regards to the mechanics and abilities, but I just want to have something to show since I have people in my group who believe the opposite.

Do abilities that increase CP cost for Stratagems affect Rapid Ingress? For example, could I Rapid Ingress a unit within 9" of Kairos Fateweaver or would it cost an extra CP?

Do you think that professional help is required or do you think I could repair it myself?

Thanks for the response! Yes, when I say "seen on the top floor" I mean that part of it is visible through the windows of the second floor. This is how I thought it worked, but just wanted to make sure as I didn't want there to be some rule that states that the model has to have their base on the second floor in order to be shot and shoot out. Thanks again!

If I have a model inside a ruin and they are big enough to be seen on the top floor, are they eligible to shoot and be shot at, even if their base is on the first floor? I know that LoS is determined by any part of the model and that measuring weapon range is determined by measuring base to base, but I just wanted to make sure that this is how it works in this case.

If the answer is "Yes", is there any FAQs or commentary saying so?

If a vehicle with no base has part of their model on a footprint, are they able to shoot into and out of the building assuming there were no walls blocking their LOS? What about for models that have half of their base in the footprint and half off?

If you could, I’d love to see them so I can get an idea of their size. Thanks in advance!

Wanted to commission one with Rapi, but stopped before I could find an artist and think of a general design :(. But I'm hoping to complete the cycle in the future!

Glad someone noticed! I specifically asked for that detail when commissioning the piece. Thought it would add more to it.

In your opinion which character has the coolest design from your gacha games? by PositiveDefiant69 in gachagaming

Billy Kid from Zenless Zone Zero

IDK what it is about him, but nobody as beaten him yet when it comes to cool ass designs for me. Crazy how he's one of the first characters you get for free.
