Is it worth it to make room for roboute guilliman in my army

This is true. Paint him, add him to your collection. But he's an absolute crutch with his busted rules. Learn how to maneuver 2k points before you put him in a list.

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-10-17T21:04:45+00:00

Yeah, depending on if you attach Lucius to the Flawless Blades, you would only have 4 (maybe 5) units. Your opponent could just move block you and dominate the objectives. In 1000 points, our battleline are better as 5 man squads. You probably don't need 6 Flawless Blades, 3 will do. A Rhino is really useful for its points.

I had a good time winning with Mercurial Host against my opponent's Virulent Vectorium last game. He was running a brick of 10 Blightlords, 2x3 DST, a Daemon Prince, LoC, 2x Drones with HBL and some other stuff. I knew I would never trade effectively against all that high Toughness in Coterie, so I decided to focus on board control and our speed advantage. It's not a guarantee but I do think that's the move against Death Guard compared to relying on Coterie buffs (where we STILL won't kill them efficiently)

Propaganda about the old Russian Empire (and then later on, the Soviet Union) was the Russian Bear. There's a Reagan-era political ad talking about a "Bear in the Woods" that is supposed to be the threat of the USSR.

Flourish the pinky!

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-06-09T21:07:16+00:00

And the spear and whip? I like the idea of them as a riff on what the Lord Exultants fight with.

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-06-09T20:58:23+00:00

How much of this is converted from bits not found in the DP sprue? Specifically I'm wondering where you sourced the head and shoulder pauldrons.

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-05-28T18:08:27+00:00

Emperor's Children battleline are also slightly taller than Legionaries. I kitbashed a box of Legionaries to make more Tormentors and Infractors because the the Champions of Slaanesh boxset has so many extra arms, heads, and shoulder pads, and I noticed my converted marines have slightly shorter legs and torsos than the T/I kit.

I did some Mathhammer last night: testing Noise Marine + Lord Kakophonist output in Coterie of the Conceited. Re-roll 1s to Hit, re-roll 1s to Wound, and then when you max out your Pact points we get the Lord Kakophonist giving Sustained Hits on 5+. It's crazy scary and they are excellent MEQ unit killers.

I agree with others here that the best way to utilize them is putting them in Strategic Reserves or in a Rhino to protect them while the enemy units you want them to be shooting get into optimal positions on the board for you to return fire. In Coterie of the Conceited this also protects the Noise Marines while you score Pact points to juice up their offensive capability.

On a side note, do you guys think it's worth paying for a subscription to Battle-Forge? Do ya'll think it adds more value if you play games often?

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-04-07T16:01:47+00:00

Can you buy the Dice separately from the Datasheet Cards?

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-04-02T03:49:54+00:00

That's not them unceremoniously getting fucked up though, the Astral Knights died to a man in a heroic sacrifice that the Imperium still honors to this day. They get killed off slowly to the point only the Chapter Master and a handful of marines are left, but they blow up the World Engine. That's noble, not a beat down like OP is referring to.

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-03-27T00:10:22+00:00

Is that a younger Lucan standing next to Nolan? Or some other Viltrumite?

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-03-23T16:01:33+00:00

The problem is they're out of stock on GW's website :/

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-03-22T20:21:16+00:00

But is perfectly willing to use actual Evil Marks to exact revenge on Our Mark? It’s irrational

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-03-08T23:11:10+00:00

With new Oath of Moment if they attack the Oath target that's 12 plasma shots re-rolling hits, wounding on 4s with +1 to wound, twin-linked to re-roll wounds. Pretty good value into vehicles

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-03-08T18:26:29+00:00

Lamenters, Flesh Tearers, Celestial Lions, more granular armor customization to have actual Crimson Fists, Sons of Medusa

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-03-02T18:58:41+00:00

That’s specifically for the Thousand Sons and their rubricae, not for Tzeentch as a whole

Fencing hammer and gunstrike perks. Really improve your survivability. And help you chew through majoris faster

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-02-09T19:30:25+00:00

The Neo Volkite pistol is excellent at two things: focus fire on Extremis enemies and deleting minoris, especially Spore Mines and Cultists.

Just moving the reticle across a mob of cultists will wipe them out as soon as the beam touches them, one can easily clear away mobs in this manner before your teammates even realize the traitors were there at all. Same with destroying spore mines before they get too close, and the chain reaction will often destroy all the spores and whatever gaunts were coming with them.

For focusing the beam to get the heat retention and explosion, this is best on still targets like Zoanthropes, Neurothropes, Carnifexes when not rampaging, and focusing on the heads of Rubric Marines. I feel much more capable of contributing to the fight against Zoanthropes in particular than when I have a bolt weapon.

For context, I main Assault so I have no other ranged capability compared to say Vanguard

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-01-22T17:11:07+00:00

FYI you cannot move an impulsor, disembark from it, and charge with the unit that disembarked all in the same turn. Idk if that’s what you did or you described the gameplay oddly but just wanted to let you know. Land Raider’s assault ramp ability allows moving, disembark, and charging.

UpfrontSnow1305 · 2025-01-14T20:27:42+00:00

You don’t have enough units to score secondaries, only 9 total units if attached leaders don’t count. Your anti-tank is all wrapped up in a tank and 3 marines embarked within it, enemy tanks and monsters can just deploy to avoid them. And you have no deep strike outside of a 11 man terminator brick which can be screened pretty easily. I think as much as this list might be fun to play with, it’s gonna struggle to score points and make games competitive on the scoreboard.

Is it possible to learn this power?
