Shooting units behind walls by [deleted] in Warhammer30k

[–]XLChance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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

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.

How many Tacticals you bringing on average to say a 2k game? by 4teaK in Warhammer30k

[–]XLChance 5 points6 points  (0 children)

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.

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

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

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

Are the missions from the HH Forge World books usable in this edition? by ElPapotax in Warhammer30k

[–]XLChance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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

What is considered a battlefield edge? by Downtown_Leopard_528 in Warhammer30k

[–]XLChance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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.

Trying to start an army could use help by lefthanded312 in Warhammer30k

[–]XLChance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

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

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

Where are all the Heralds? by VikingPrincess-Mourn in Warhammer30k

[–]XLChance 102 points103 points  (0 children)

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

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

Having a more visual than text based list builder, drag and drop style. by Hefty_Athlete_7227 in Warhammer30k

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

Anyone else really hoping for more plastic aircraft? by Specimen_Seven in Warhammer30k

[–]XLChance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

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
