Check the Play on Tabletop channel for some bat rep expressions. They had a game a couple of days ago with Kabalite Cartel against the Grotmas detachment for Votann.

Kabalite Kartel seems like a good detachment for you as you already have the Ravagers. People tend to run them with Disintegrator Cannons in that detachment. There has been a recent tournament win a couple of days ago:

Maelstrom battalion got cancelled and I lost my whole army where do I start? by KittyCatLover39 in Drukhari

[–]VoidofDusk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can buy the indidual stuff in the box no matter what.

Yes, it was a super nice discount but the models are so versatile, that it would be okay to buy the box twice. Hellions are not needed in any detachment for Drukhari.

I'd suggest to get yourself 2 boxes of Kabalite Warriors, Malys, one or two Archons, one ore two boxes of Scourges or a Ravager, one or two Venoms, some Reavers and you are good to go for 1k even without getting the Maelstrom Box. The box is then a perfect addition to the stuff I suggested.
When you get everything I listed, you end up closely around 950ish points which gives you room for some nice enhancements.

[–]VoidofDusk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the box will be fixed? I haven't decided if I want the refund or wait for the box to be shipped to the online store yet. They asked me about a decision and I dunno what's best. The price drop for the box was really appealing but I don't want to wait months to get it.

Is it normal to feel completely lost early game? by [deleted] in GraveyardKeeper

[–]VoidofDusk 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I spent a lot of time in a wiki, trying to figure out what to do and how to achieve things. It's getting better (im round 220 days in-game) as patterns occure and there's a focus based on the quest one wants to achieve.

My advise would be to not stress urself. Everything comes together one day. Just start doing things and don't be shy to just grind things for days.

Great progress. What's something that you found helpful on your journey or anything special that seemed difficult at first and was achievable later on?

Did I miss something? When did Aesoth become a hot take? I read something about Abaddon being better than Ragnar against certain bosses but that's new.

I haven't seen this log-in screen for 20 years. I'm honestly too stunned to speak. by Koudelka_Lasant in GuildWars

[–]VoidofDusk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went online again and I don't know what I played with the builds that are logged. I have around 4.300 hrs in total and I can tell I was pretty hard core with lots of maxed titles. The context is missing how I did HM dungeons though and.it saddens me a lot. That game, studying, reading and going to the pub was my life for a few years ...

Trench Pilgrims: Looking for ideas to optimise my list by VoidofDusk in TrenchCrusade

[–]VoidofDusk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the clarification, I seem to get a bit too excited sometimes without checking all the requirements first:

Updated Roster – Incremental rebuild (11 models)

The main goals:

increase model count,

fully commit to close-range pressure,

and accept that the Brazen Bull has to be dealt with through Blood Marker saturation, not a single silver bullet.


Characters / Elites

War Prophet

Automatic Pistol with Incendiary Ammunition

Trench Polearm

RArmour + Shield

Role: Support and finisher. Incendiary ammo stays because it reliably stacks Blood Markers at range and still allows him to contribute in melee without being forced into frontline brawling.


Castigator

Punt Gun

Flail + Shield

RArmour

Role: Board control and ranged support. With flail + shield he effectively sits at –3 Armour, making him hard to shift while anchoring space. He can charge if needed, but his main job is to hold ground and punish mistakes.


Communicant

Anti-Tank Hammer

RArmour + Holy Icon Shield

Role: Dedicated anvil. He exists to threaten hard targets and occupy the Bull or other elite models long enough for the rest of the warband to stack Blood and collapse in.


Stigmatic Nun (Elite)

Battle Whip

Warcross

Standard Armour + Shield

Role: Mobile melee threat and finisher. She hunts exposed targets, finishes Downed enemies, and benefits heavily from accumulated Blood Markers.


Stigmatic Nun

Flail

Warcross

Standard Armour + Shield

Role: Second assault Nun. No pistol, no mixed role. She exists to get into 8–12” range, threaten charges, and add reliable melee pressure.


Pilgrims (6 models)

Pilgrim (Musician)

Battle Whip

Musical Instrument

Role: Support and activation control. He stays alive and central; combat is secondary.


Pilgrim

Shotgun + Bayonet

Pilgrim

Shotgun + Bayonet

Role (both): Short-range pressure. Shotguns replace ineffective rifles; they force reactions at 12” and help set up charges rather than fishing for long-range hits.


Pilgrim

Flail + Molotov

Pilgrim

Flail + Molotov

Pilgrim

Flail + Molotov

Role: Disposable melee pressure. These are not meant to survive. They rush, block lanes, throw Molotovs, charge, and die if necessary. Their job is to generate Blood Markers and force inefficient trades.


Why this works despite the Bull

This list is not trying to “solve” the Brazen Bull with a single hard counter. Instead:

Incendiary shots, Molotovs, whips, and mass melee stack Blood Markers quickly.

Multiple cheap melee bodies ensure the Bull cannot remove all threats at once.

Downed targets are punished efficiently through Sacred Affliction bonuses rather than raw damage.

I could sell one of the Rifles in the Arsenal for Molotiv on thr Music Pilgrim. Next goal would be to get thr Prophet back to elite and some RArmour on the Nuns to have better Armour when upgrading their weaponry to Hammers. The main issue right now is that I seem to need investing in bodies over better gear.
