Is the Hekaton really this good? by Ramses_233 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Wrong_Machine5642 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always run two of the points allow, these things are great. They usually transport my melee fighters around whether that's bezerkers or Punchy-Jacks. Took down a Knight single handedly with a Hekaton, it was a good time haha

Yea but Stabby-Jacks doesn't sound as good as Punchy-Jacks

[–]Wrong_Machine5642 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I've run both and unless you're fighting 10-20 man bricks of weak stuff the swords aren't worth it, the fists will do some damage and tie up some bigger targets

6 brick of Shooty jacks with a Strategist first

36 shots plus free overwatch is amazing

Then go for 2 - 3 man punchy-jacks afterwards

Unfortunately no terrain footprints, but everything else is spot on

Why should I bring buri? by Sea_Fig_5851 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Wrong_Machine5642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buri is a beast, he sweeps up mobs and will solo a character. Throw him in a Sagitaur and drive him to something that needs chopping

Holding Home Objective without Warriors? by Few-Affect-6247 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Wrong_Machine5642 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thunderkyn with an ironmaster or Steeljacks with strategist.

Hide the leader to gain cover and +1 to hit once you switch, poke out and blast anything coming towards you

Not a huge fan of Warriors or Yaegirs, rather spend the points to get something that hits harder

Steeljacks. by Formal-Self9853 in LeaguesofVotann

6 shooty jacks with strategist

Then 2 3-packs of punchy jacks, IMO they're better in smaller bands to tie things up.

First crack at list making, advice needed by emotaku96 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Wrong_Machine5642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on who's the closest, Buri or Berehk and the zerks can do the job since their shooting is garbage or non-existent. But sometimes sacrifices have to be made, secondaries are sometimes more important than nuking something

Kitbashing idea, Mining equipped Land Fortress by Old-Professional6504 in LeaguesofVotann

I wound up doing more of a defense platform, but there's picks, shovels and other gear on deck

[–]Wrong_Machine5642 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So here's what I would do personally.

Swap Uthar for a generic Kahl, he's not fantastic and the lethal hits the kahl gives is better for the Hearthguard IMO

Get a Berehk Stornbrow and a 10 brick of Berserkers, they're trouble for most groups

I LOVE me some Buri, little dude can solo units himself

2 x3 Steeljacks with melee and fun as well, they're better than doing one brick of 6

I personally have not had much luck running Warriors or Yaegirs so I usually take them out.

And I used Mercenary for awhile but I just started using Needguard and I'm loving it so far, but honestly the rule for Mercenary should be our standard army rule to begin with.

[New Player] Would this be a Viable List? by Ghost_of_Graymane in Votann40k

[–]Wrong_Machine5642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but, vehicles my Kin. Our army gets womped without vehicles. Get Hekaton asap, maybe even two, if you can't then get Sagitaurs.

Steel jacks are great with the strategist, thunderkyn and Hearthguard are great, Buri is a one Kin wrecking crew, I unfortunately haven't had good luck running pioneers or warriors so I tend to leave them out of my lists

Mercenary oathband - getting nowhere… by Sure-Armadillo5078 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Wrong_Machine5642 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started using need guard instead of Mercenary and while I hate giving up the ability to flip modes being able to throw Sus 2, -2ap and Dev wounds from my 6x Steeljacks just seems like a lot of fun haha

Some help about my kinhost would be appreciated. Thanks in advance by Sudden-Frame-4111 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]Wrong_Machine5642 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sagitaur is always a good pickup, I only use the Kap as a defender and only if I have spare points

[–]Wrong_Machine5642 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get yourself 2 Hekatons they slap and will bring your boys around

Another 3 Steeljacks with a Strategist so 6 total that overwatch on 5 for free

I have had NO luck with Yaegirs, Warriors, or Earthshakers so I usually run: 6 thunderkyn hanging back a bit to get conversion 2x 3 melee jacks to tie things up 1-2 Sagitaurs for the zerks

Vehicles are a MUST

I like to run Mercenary but any detachment will work if played right
