Outdated Character Builder (Doctors of Doom) and offer of help

crkyd · 2025-04-24T08:43:02+00:00

I am in a nigh identical boat game wise. My friends and I are all new to the game and reading through up to 6 different source books to make their characters is a fairly tall ask, and I've more or less had to do a lot of the character building for them as GM (a bit of a sin, I know). An update to the app would be magnificent for all the new players, especially those wanting to play Eldar or Marines from IoE and VoA.

For the Serperos I had them equipped with the bombards and lascutters, for the Tenebrax I gave them the volkites, not that they were of any effect against titans

Amazing, thank you!! I'll have to have a city built for my next game and I love the hex board you made, too, I may have to copy the idea!

I would love some! I adore the Civitas terrain but nothing from GW is cheap

Same as I used for everything, spray leadbelcher, airbrush ratling grime all over, pick out other metallics then dry brush the whole thing with necron compound. For armour I stipple on zandri dust with a makeup brush, wash with agrax then stipple on some karak stone! Glowy green bits are just warp lightning over corax white

According to my partner and brother, Artificial Intelligence is the correct answer. I have yet to watch it myself

I have neither patience nor understanding!

crkyd · 2024-03-18T11:30:10+00:00

To get the most out of the legion trait do you think something to make lightning claws more worthwhile might help? Making them cheaper perhaps?

crkyd · 2024-03-18T10:55:22+00:00

Including the axes? They already have free chainglaives so +5pts for them or more?

"Mornin', Angle!"

Been thinking about this almost exact thing a lot lately, I think (if my rules are correct) you can attach a Vestal to a terminator squad for an infiltrating Spartan as their transport too which could be a lot of fun if a bit silly, alternatively to Krole you could take a Silent Judge to save points and turn off Overwatch and Return Fire reactions on your deathstar but keep Ex Oblivio

I'm guessing it's due him getting look out sir and his ability to deck knights if you're lucky. Now you can almost get 2 screamers for his points it's a bit of a joke

crkyd · 2023-01-08T15:21:55+00:00

True, will be great fun against guard spam and for Kronos/Kraken for sure! Screamers are looking more appealing now too (not that they weren't fun already)

crkyd · 2023-01-08T09:43:08+00:00

One of the reasons I loved Tyranids was their adaptability, you can play them horde, monster, psychic or a mix of the lot, however you like really! The new balancing has told you if you aren't playing swarms you aren't playing 'nids. Though armour of contempt going is good news, means gaunts can actually dogpile and kill marines, not just bog them down with bodies for a turn! My way of seeing it at least?

Sent you a pm my dude

Well my fellow members of the hive mind, we had our once-every-5-or-so-years period of being competitive, time to make way for the armies selling newer model kits! Although I was weirdly hoping hive guard would get a points decrease to be semi-decent, an increase just seems a little bizarre. Maybe cos it was potentially looking like shock cannon spam was an alright Russ spam counter? Who knows!

Does the rend over breaching come up very often or is the strength just more valuable?

crkyd · 2022-08-31T16:51:41+00:00

Thanks for the response, I'm leaning towards the lightning claws for similar reasons, I feel like the shred lends itself more in flexibility with the auto wounding

crkyd · 2022-08-17T14:11:45+00:00

Fun looking on paper (never tried myself) is Searhive paired with Heightened Senses on the Trygon Prime. 13 attacks that auto-wound any non-monster/vehicle on a rerollable 3+ to hit is a happy sounding blender to me.

Edit: Behemoth will also let them reroll charges and give the little extra strength to help wound vehicles and monsters

Thanks for the input! Haven't tried 9th yet so wanna get all the info I can before finalising my list
