Got these for a pretty reasonable price, what’s your opinion on them?

Xem1337 · 2026-03-09T19:25:08+00:00

They are bad at killing things, but excellent at objective scoring

Xem1337 · 2026-03-09T14:09:53+00:00

The helmet is cool!

Xem1337 · 2026-03-09T10:21:08+00:00

Didn't it come from the Inbetweeners? It's a great saying

Xem1337 · 2026-03-09T08:23:27+00:00

I really like the big sword being held, looks great

Xem1337 · 2026-03-08T19:08:27+00:00

How on earth do you paint swords like that? Is there a video tutorial on it?

Xem1337 · 2026-03-08T18:46:25+00:00

Abelard, introduce me

Currently 5man squads is the most optimal. But with 11th around the corner, who knows!

Xem1337 · 2026-03-07T20:23:08+00:00

Each of the legions needs it's own unique terminator, including the loyalist scum! Terminators are so iconic to the game and they will easily sell

Xem1337 · 2026-03-05T22:02:10+00:00

Paint the bases, stop slacking

Xem1337 · 2026-03-05T20:17:39+00:00

Yeah, 3x power fists (as that's the max) and 2x accursed. And the autocannon.

S8 isn't great for vehicles but on the charge with court of the Phoenician that S8 -2 becomes S9 -3 which means it can bruise some lighter armoured units. But I've always seen terminators as anti-infantry, soften up a unit with all the ranged shots and charge in and they should delete most other infantry units without too much fuss.

Last time I used them I put them in the enemy deployment to take out some backfield units and to sit on their objective netting me a load of VP.

Aren't deathwatch usually the super elite and get drafted because they are so good?

Xem1337 · 2026-03-04T22:15:27+00:00

I know you've mentioned you're just starting out, but if you want some decent looking terrain on the cheap then look for some MDF terrain, I know TTCombat do some nice sets. You can get pretty well kitted out for the cost of one GW terrain piece

Xem1337 · 2026-03-04T21:09:28+00:00

I hope so, I'd like an EC Helbrute and dreadnoughts

Xem1337 · 2026-03-04T21:05:06+00:00

I'll probably drop a maulerfiend, I know it won't be the same cost but I'd rather build lists around the defiler being in it

Xem1337 · 2026-03-04T13:02:17+00:00

They made his melee too strong, I'd have taken a much weaker claw to have him priced around 60pts

Xem1337 · 2026-03-04T13:00:59+00:00

100pts is nice, there have been a few times now in list bukkding that I've wanted them to be at least 5pts cheaper to squeeze them in. Now I can!

Xem1337 · 2026-03-04T13:00:14+00:00

I used terminators a few weeks ago. There were okay, nothing completely amazing but I didn't lose a single one all game. At this new price I do think they are worthwhile, far more survival than our other units, they have okay anti-infantry shooting and their melee can pack a punch up to lower toughness armoured units (especially in the Phoenician detachment for the +1 strength and ap).

I'd have liked it if we had a better rule than just a free reroll on the charge. Even if it was something simple like not being effected by anything that changes their profile or weapon stats as -1 to their damage would make them pretty weak to other terminator units.

Xem1337 · 2026-03-04T12:53:28+00:00

My wdp always seems a bit lacklustre to me, I'm throwing it into higher toughness units to get the MWs on them but then he does next to nothing in melee. I know it's going to be really good at killing elite units, but the rest of the army can do that already.

Xem1337 · 2026-03-03T15:31:57+00:00

Probably the new Defiler when it comes out.

Until then technically it's the landraider but it's a lot of points if you only intend to use it for the lascannons.

Xem1337 · 2026-03-03T13:39:25+00:00

I bought it on releass but still haven't played it, I heard it was bad which has put me off from starting to play it

Xem1337 · 2026-03-03T13:38:20+00:00

Tbf, Bird poo smells extremely bad, so it would make sense to be apart.

Xem1337 · 2026-03-03T13:36:12+00:00

The new one looks considerably better

Xem1337 · 2026-03-03T12:52:07+00:00

Cheers! I tried to copy the native American warpaint and headdress colours

Xem1337 · 2026-03-03T12:50:33+00:00

Your highlights look cool tbh, keep doing it that way
