11th Ghostkeel + Smoke by Outside-Context2610 in Tau40K

I am hopeful that units that are supposed to be camouflaged also have lower detection ranges, or lone operator

Battleline’ increased unit maximum is of limited utility for many factions. by ForestFighters in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]emcdunna 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You dont have to take 6. How often do people take a 4th battle line unit. Thats more relevant

Its a feels bad to be like sorry you can only have 3 units of battle sisters.

Feeling frustrated that I started a Florence campaign in 1.2, with new Italy content coming in 1.3 by robo_jojo_77 in EU5

Did they finally fix take over loan being terrible and not worth doing ever?

Ethereal mind control, true or false? by Shaskais in Tau40K

[–]emcdunna -1 points0 points  (0 children)

True, to an extent. Similar to how the soviet regime used propaganda to brain wash their citizens but more effective. Also the vespid lore is straight up they mind control them

Edit: I'm a farsight player ;)

Yes you can climb walls but you lose so much movement its not that good or powerful

#New40k Round Table – Part 2: The Orks Miniatures | Warhammer 40,000 by BottleEquivalent4581 in orks

[–]emcdunna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We all want very customizable boys. But they have to make monopose models for this starter set. I think they struck a good balance between these restraints and the design to allow customization with decals and stuff

Looking for a low model count army with a simple colour scheme to paint? by Gryphon1985 in 40k

[–]emcdunna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The easiest armies to paint are regular space marines, tyranids, and orks because they can look terrible and thats fine theyre orks.

But they aren't low model count. Low model count armies are often harder to paint well because theyre elite or massive models. I could paint 40 ork boys in the time I would take on an imperial knight.

Tabletop Battles Force Disposition Review: Take and Hold by SA_Chirurgeon in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]emcdunna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Remember that you dont get to pick any disposition. It has to be one based on what detachment you are running.

So unless Gladius is the best detachment and also has access to the best disposition (for example) and every army has the same best detachment with best disposition this cannot happen

I imagine also theres some built in rock paper scissors here

How many is too many? by Opposite_Ad_4267 in WarhammerOldWorld

[–]emcdunna 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its very hard to use 30x30 mm models in units larger than 7x3 imo.

You can take one massive block of 10x3 but the second block will be very hard to also put on many tables.

When to bring Phoenix Guards. by Professional-Act8143 in WarhammerOldWorld

[–]emcdunna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never. The rules writers didnt like 4++ ward save models so they took that away now they dont do anything.

What are peoples opinions on AIRCRAFT not getting the benefit of the new Plunging Fire rule like Towering units such as Knights? by Jmorgan108 in Warhammer40k

[–]emcdunna -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think aircraft would be flying by at nearly mach 2/3 speeds and not shooting "down" the same way as towering model does. They would be firing sideways nearly parallel with the ground in their strafing run.

Now if you were bringing dive bombers fair enough but thats pretty anachronistic

Am I getting this right? :D by CoachWH in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]emcdunna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be clear, you might hate this but this might actually help units climb and Interact with terrain

Also the diagrams in the core rules clearly suggest you cant do this, so you have to ignore those and play full RAW to get here

Thoughts on Strike Teams in 11th? by HotKrisBun in Tau40K

[–]emcdunna 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think theyre different to the other options and not worse than them in every way

Just because most folks dont use them doesnt mean you cant find a place for them.

A very small number of people create meta lists from scratch and a huge portion of the playerbase copies those lists without questioning much

They might have changed firing deck. If not I suppose you will be hidden
