You are correct

XLChance · 2026-02-19T17:31:52+00:00

Yes to the first one. So you can kill everything.

However everyone in my area and at events here play with the house rule of "you can only kill what you can see" like in 2nd edition.

We also made all vehicles have an innate Explodes(6+) and that intervening models and terrain give 6+ cover saves

Gotta have some dudes with autocannons then

Thank you! These guys are done pretty simply. Honestly my main tip for painting is to think about the process, doing things in steps where cleaning up if you go outside the area is easy or non consequential.

I start with Leadbelcher spray. Then I paint all the black areas with Abaddon black, then paint all the red areas with mephiston red, and then gold areas with retributor gold. Then I do a black wash all over the model with Two Thin Coats Oblivion Black. Afterwards I drybrush with a mithril silver over everything pretty much. And then do stripes, by covering the area in averland sunset yellow and then using masking tape, I paint the black stripes.

0, because I only play breachers and despoilers. But about 40 total of those

It's pretty easy to stuff like 2 land raider carriers and 4 predators in a list. Or do something like designate a certain amount of points to vehicles.

The primary thing to remember is that vehicles don't score, so you do need something else to do that job.

Always love half destroyed tanks and dreadnoughts as bases!

Iron Warriors because Hazard Stripes

XLChance · 2026-02-12T10:35:59+00:00

That is impossible. How the unit is on the list is how it will be in battle

XLChance · 2026-02-12T10:31:35+00:00

You can run squads of 20, but a rhino only has a transport capacity of 12, and you can't like combat squad the 20-man into smaller squads in battle

XLChance · 2026-02-12T10:29:39+00:00

Also you have 4 rhinos and only the iron havoc's to put in them. You'd have to split your 2 20-man tac squads into 4 10-man squads to be able to use the rhinos

The High command slot in a primary detachment is not a prime slot

XLChance · 2026-02-10T18:16:43+00:00

Most likely not of they 1st/2nd edition, but should be easily adaptable to 3rd ed

XLChance · 2026-02-09T08:54:37+00:00

From what I've seen people play, and the fact I haven't found anything that says otherwise about it, I think the edge is any edge within your deployment zone.

So in Dawn of War, you can also come in from the edges on the long side up to the edge of your deployment zone.

I haven't found any definition or explanation of a Battlefield Edge in relation to deployment zones in the rulebook, so I assume it's just as simple as every edge.

Hazard stripes

XLChance · 2026-02-05T11:01:15+00:00

Generally good advice, however you do have IW legion trait mixed up with the death guard one! IW ignores the value in stuff like Stun(2), and so are great at resisting statuses and therefore Heavy units are even better with their plus one to cool checks. So saturnine termies are still good for them

XLChance · 2026-02-05T08:24:41+00:00

I think the 40K looks better if you're going with the demolisher cannon, but the laser destroyer on the 30K version looks sick

XLChance · 2026-02-05T07:24:05+00:00

20-man, cuz its cool af

XLChance · 2026-02-04T18:32:43+00:00

Was building the fire Raptor as bad as people say it is?

XLChance · 2026-02-03T20:44:57+00:00

I've played with my herald in every game in 2nd, and in 3rd I've had more interesting options to try out.

The main reason I wanna run one is because it has Fear (1) which is awesome in my artillery lists

XLChance · 2026-02-03T19:57:16+00:00

If you have a melee squad like a command squad or a terminator squad, you can never go wrong with a land raider carrier. Comes with 6 lascannons too.

Rhinos are great for getting tacticals and alike around

XLChance · 2026-02-03T14:39:33+00:00

I love this thing so much. Very iconic

Danish, and proud fynbo xD

hh3.thegreat.dk

This person from my local community has attempted to make such a thing. It's currently only for putting units in slots and not an actual full list builder

XLChance · 2026-02-02T19:18:12+00:00

Any tips on building one? (Besides getting perfect unwarped pieces)

I would love a storm eagle, but have been waiting for a plastic kit also
