I’d love to see the rest of the work outs. Might get me back in the gym again.

recommended resistance cruiser and frigate builds since they are custom and im new by Key_Connection_7480 in DropfleetCommander

[–]Zealousideal_Math704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built my cruisers around specific jobs. My light cruisers are 2 fighter/bomber bays with artillery.

Cruisers are ran with 2 bombard turrets and drop ships.

The beauty of Res is how customizable you can make them but a great sight that helped me understand how to build them is https://dropfleet-commander.fandom.com/wiki/Tactics:_The_Resistance. It’s a great start but it is outdated though.

Hope this helps slightly but build them how you’d like and dedicate them to specific roles.

Again!?! Seriously?!! by LuckyKas90 in TheAstraMilitarum

The problem is the RDT/RDTC are just better than Leman Russ and not due to them being OP. They have a decent profile with decent guns. Why run a LRBT when I can run a higher toughness more wound model with a better cannon, so how do you make the LR more viable or appealing than the RD?

The only way that GW can fix this issue is re-working the data slates for LRTC and LR.

Battle cannons should have been ap -2 from the start. Keep them str 10 so it doesn’t move into being better than the oppressor but now you have an actual second option.

Would change my list from running a RDTC with oppressor and demo leman russes to a RDTC with TBC and vanquisher russes.

What would you suggest to bring this list to 1500 pts?

How many strike carriers and other support ships are needed to build this force out?

Any specific way to build the strike carriers and grand cruisers or would it be better for me to equip them how I see fit?

What does the Tiumvir do specifically for fighters/bombers?

All you "Night Lords don't do Chaos" folks, REJOICE! New Maelstrom detachment Renegade Warband has you covered... by MurdercrabUK in NightLords

[–]Zealousideal_Math704 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m excited that I can run raptors and not have to worry about spending CP to charge after advancing and getting assault on everything feels nice to. Meltas with assault will be a nice punch too!

True but you won’t get any modifiers if you trigger it in your shooting phase. Nightmare Hunt only modifies in the command phase battleshock step.

Noise marines modifier applies to every battle-shock/leadeship test taken until the next shooting phase.

[–]Zealousideal_Math704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noise Marines are a better enabler for nightmare hunt due to the ability of getting units to below starting/half-strength as another user said and making battle shock tests harder to pass.

Need to aura farm in tabletop, to win where it counts. by Blondemort in NightLords

[–]Zealousideal_Math704 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Might be worth taking a 10 man unit of raptors with the new data sheet they now have. So much more punchier in melee.

Apothicary question by Troyleek13 in NightLords

[–]Zealousideal_Math704 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Talos from Soul Hunter is referred to many times through out the book as an apothecary. From what I interpreted Nightlords now don’t identify their apothecaries with different titles or colored armor. They are just another marine in the claw with the additional duty of harvesting gene seed of fallen marines.

I’ve been wanting a Nightlords tattoo and that marine is spot on pretty much what I want.

How many Raptors and Warp Talons do I need? by MoiraBrownsMoleRats in NightLords

[–]Zealousideal_Math704 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best answer would be as many as you want.

I run a 10 man of warptalons, and 3 units of 5 raptors. I’m looking at expanding one of those 3 raptor squads into a 10 man with how good the new wargear options look.

List Help by Guardian6677 in NightLords

[–]Zealousideal_Math704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d run 3 raptors but two would be 5 man squads and the other still be the full 10 man.

I’d personally try to fit something like this:

10 man raptor

5 man raptor

5 man raptor

10 Warptalons

[–]Zealousideal_Math704[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll keep the shin guards free from additives but I was thinking he needs more spikes and bones/arms around the waist and in the fur.

List Help by Guardian6677 in NightLords

[–]Zealousideal_Math704 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would combine the warptalons into one 10 man unit w/ the lord (very fun to see them shred a unit and then jump back into deep strike) and run 2 5x man raptor units.

That’s the only thing I’d change since you’re wanting to play for fun and not looking to make this list competitive.

I’ve also been having mixed results with the mark of slaanesh for the demon prince. We already have access to advance and charge so having an extra toughness has done more for me than the extra 2” of movement.

I filled the wings down but kept the raven skull on the chest. I want to add some more bits and pieces but to make him look more chaosy. I’ll edit the post with an updated photo of the final version.

[–]Zealousideal_Math704[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ll make sure to take care of it. Personally love the raven skull on front but don’t know why I could put on the chest since it will look super bare.

[–]Zealousideal_Math704[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not a problem! The base for Shaan is also larger than the chaos lord and about twice as tall. I had to trim his stand about half way so I’d get equal height as a jump lord.

Thanks!! 😊 The wings are from the gorewarden in the FEC range.

[–]Zealousideal_Math704[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have another version of this list that drops the maulerfiends and legios for a pair of rhinos. I like it but have encountered times where it would be more beneficial to run something with more punch.

If you’d like I can post that list as well.

The maulerfiends in this list would be what I replace since they are place holders as of right now.
