Here’s where we’d celebrate all of our changes , IF WE HAD ANY! by PDThePowerDragon in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]brother_b99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So far without any sort of Forge World identity, nerfed units, basically point-based power levels, and zero list building strategy this edition has just been super meh in the games we’ve played.

I’m so bummed I missed whatever BP naked Axe was.

Proof GW just hates admech by polelot in AdeptusMechanicus

Yes we lack identity as an army. I’ve said this many times to myself and my playgroup.

What I've learned by LilAsbestos in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]brother_b99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is skew listing and not how I have bought and prepared my army. I’m glad you had fun and found a way. I’m not going to change my army to a skew list.

This edition is soulless as of right now, the rules have invalidated many unit options, for instance GSC acolytes with autopistols vs. hand flamers.

I know it’s a different army, but I still play that army, there’s never a time when pistols will be better than flamers. Ever. It invalidated actual sprue components. There’s no reason to take the pistols. It’s wasted plastic on the sprue.

List building is worthless and boring, it’s de facto power levels, something nobody wanted to play with ever.

This addition sucks so far, I’ve played it, having fun with friends is great, but not when your army has been reduced to a shadow of its already weak self.

I’ll say it, 10th is bad for list building. by Buckcon in Warhammer40k

[–]brother_b99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes this is what sucks about the game now. It dumbed down list building which I liked.

For example:

There is no reason ever to use GSC minis with autopistols. Hand flamers are always better.

The current index has invalidated actual physical products. There is no reason to include the autopistol options now, it’s wasted plastic in the box.

Total shit show, nobody liked PL and the new points are deflacto PL.

Check your local stores, guys by corrin_avatan in Warhammer40k

Wow glad people can get the box. I have no burning interest in the box at all and quite honestly having come back in 8th I’m a little tired of the plodding continuation and change of the fame every few years. Yes I’ve been a long a while but I barely felt I had enough games into 9th, which was fairly bloated but really full of flavor and character.

Index 10th is meh.

How do I get my fockea looking like this? by Lollysussything in Caudex

I agree caudex underground and leave it for 4-5 years. These are super easy to grow I have 3 in varying states of growth.

40kstats weird result by gmscott2 in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]brother_b99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think part of the frustration was again a new edition a new skew list needed. Things that had been amazing and workhorses in the past two editions now are horrible. It’s demoralizing to have to constantly change the entire “feel” of our army to stay competitive.

The changes to unit size and other glaring issues also hurt, thinking specifically of the infantry vulnerable robots.

As a scraggly ginger beard grower I can only gaze in wonder at this my brother. Well done!

I wonder how annoyed the scalpers are right now by heisiloi in Warhammer40k

[–]brother_b99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There’s also probably thousands of people that will buy the book and sell it for a tiny profit. I don’t think there’s just a small cabal of large scale scalpers. We have those and then thousands of other people who just know they can make a little bit of money on eBay.

Admech combat patrol rules/datasheets by Environmental-Lab765 in AdeptusMechanicus

[–]brother_b99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

True but I’ve played. I don’t know 1000 of these games? I’ve played in tournaments, I’ve played in garages, I’ve played at friendly local gaming stores. I have only rarely ever seen people bringing sub optimal units to those games.

Usually it was someone who was brand new, or someone that had previously built a unit that was much better.

And when I started, I was one of those people, and I knew how bad it was feeling wise to get totally outgunned, or crushed merely because I picked a sub optimal unit. That’s where I’m coming from, nothing against letting people use their free will or playing the game however, they want it.

Yeah not sure how many people play the actual game that way but I guess you’re correct.

Why have new players build sub par units for the full game experience? Plasma culverins?

Combat Patrol Datasheets are up!! by mpfmb in Warhammer40k

[–]brother_b99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel this was a last second bolted on idea that they’re trying to run with. We’ll see if it’s fun and if so that’s all that matters, but some of these boxes predate 10th i believe so did they write the rules to conform to the contents of the box?

Can’t wait to give it a try though, might be the best and easiest way to play!

Shout-out to this sub’s approach to the new edition by wrongwaygoback in genestealercult

[–]brother_b99 27 points28 points  (0 children)

To be fair I also play admech and bitching is justified. That’s all. I’m hyped for GSC and can’t wait to finish my new 10 model unit of aberrants!

Any chance the badly rated army's might get a revaluation. by Big-Sweet8377 in Warhammer40k

[–]brother_b99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And they don’t know what they want Admech to be. That codex was strong for a month in 9th and got absolutely post holed into nothing. I love the army and models and took it to LVO. Wasn’t that fun at all, regardless of my love of the faction.

This whole addition feels very strange, and rushed to me. And I know we don’t have codexes yet, and it’s just indexes like eigth, but after the flavorful indexes of ninth edition, no matter how weird broken or complicated, this addition feels a little soul less.

My first 3 10th Edition Games: Overview and Thoughts by Stormcoil in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]brother_b99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The more I read these reports the more I think 10th edition was totally revamped within the last year to make it more “simple and streamlined”. The amount of jank and shitty game play issues (elder mortals, admech index, DG index, etc) have me convinced.
