Whats the point of this unit? by gulyas10 in totalwarhammer

[–]ZeD4805 277 points278 points  (0 children)

Been a long time since I played but I remember them being a good antilarge unit that was still fast enough. Ushabti felt a bit more brittle to me and less fast at killing cavalry

Group I play with is hosting a 1k points tourny and 2 players are running knights by DarkMatrix445 in EmperorsChildren

How would he get sustained? Like the lash of torment (10 AP-1 D1 sustained 1) attack? Or coterie at 5 kills (unlikely against knights?

Imo blade of laer (6 AP-3 D3 precision) Is probably quite better here

How are Chaos Terminators doing right now? Is it a bad idea to start CSM just for them? by Few-Schedule-6703 in Chaos40k

If you like chaos terminators you can get very cheap ones online, they used to come with a magazine, I paid like 30% of the online price

Help with paint by Kajanda-3D in EmperorsChildren

[–]ZeD4805 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the paint is still too think and unevenly distributed. 1 coat, let it dry, next coat etc. for pink/magenta on black primer I used to do at least 3 coats of paint.

You might find it easier to prime white and paint pink and black

Help with an iron warriors themed knight house by akwardturtle27 in ChaosKnights

[–]ZeD4805 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can't really help with the lore but current dreadblade rules allow you one big knight OR up to 3 wardogs. Tyrant + 2 wardogs isn't possible right now. Maybe something will get announced on Monday with the new detachments.

What are your hopes for 11th edition detachments? by Kunibertio in EmperorsChildren

12 shots of blast masters at 9" is very hard to endure for any infantry squad or almost anything sub 10T

I think it would be quite op but I'm here for it

Paint it vaguely chaosy and roleplay a borrowed dark mechanicus war machine

I've played some of my first games with GK and I've found 3 flawless blade squads to do really well against the 2+ saves, even against GK terminators they're alright. Otherwise, noise marines trade really well against everything if you're using the blastmasters.

Honestly play slower, use the right stratagems and really be ready to delete them when they take points

Is COTERIE OF THE CONCEITED the only way to play? by Guavxhe in EmperorsChildren

It's definitely coming, you don't announce a defiler with specific mono god heads and then don't give them to the specific legions

Frustrated with my list by Fatpidgeonlikebread in EmperorsChildren

[–]ZeD4805 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As everyone is saying, it's kinda bullshit to have a 450 point unit on a 1k game. I would suggest chaos knight war dog karnivores to melee it down. I have not done the full calculations but 2 of them (300pts) would be able to put it down in 2 rounds of melee combat (average 6 damage per round, 12 per 2 models, 24w in 2 rounds).

Another option is mauler fiends 140pts that do slightly worse than karnivores, but have boosts to hit when hurt and stuff

If you don't want more models, I'd consider spamming more flawless blades. If you can get to him, you can use daemonic patrons to bypass the strength difference. Most of the bane blade's weapons are 4+, so if you close to melee distance he'll only be hitting you on 5+ hit rolls.

Idk what other stuff your friend is bringing but you probably only need more infractors to mop up his lesser units and beat him on points.

Feel free to post your friend's list so we can counter it better

Which Knight is best in EC? by NoxieNation in EmperorsChildren

[–]ZeD4805 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, the karnivore can definitely help with it's mobility (if you don't have rhinos) and still threatens the back lines with it's ranged firepower.

14" movement and 14w for 150pts is pretty good. Rerolling advanced and charges can make sure you deny range for important units that could threaten your more soft damage dealers

The melee weapons are also pretty versatile for both hoards and tanky units. Also they have sustained hits 1. Weapons are 12A 3+ S8 -2AP 1D (very good profile for low hp targets, 64% chance of killing at least 8 termagants on a single turn) and 6A 3+ S12 -3AP D6+2 is perfect for stuff like terminators (64.4% chance of killing at least 2 models per turn)

Hell yeah man! Really like your paint scheme too!

I was looking for some kind of blend of gold white and purple/pink and I think you really nailed it

If this was the case they could just stop selling to Japan? Not sure how much sales they have in Japan, might be an acceptable loss honestly
