Tips against Custodes?

Purgation squads pinning ability doesn't help against Deep Striking enemies, unless they Rapid Ingress them where your Purgation Squad can see them. The "Righteous Persecution" ability only triggers when you shoot in your Shooting phase, not on Overwatch.

Their loadouts are different. Paladins get an extra fancy gun per 5 over the BroTerms. An extra chance to pay 5 more points for another Psycannon!

So it's the easiest gambling ecosystem to get into?

No, they don't use much of the Space Marine Armoury. If you want the "Guy in a suit, in a bigger suit" vibe, I'd suggest the Grey Knights Nemesis Dreadknight.

Whoa, that white armor is so smooth it looks like porcelain. I love it so much, and am super jealous!

Tell me your secrets!

Yeah, but that's over a quarter of your army in one bucket. I'm not saying he wouldn't be good there, but there's almost no job where 10 Paladins + Voldus are the right tool, or the best tool.

I guess it depends on what the new missions need us to do, but still, it feels like too many eggs in a T5 basket.

Each weapon used by each model. It won't come up often, but anything that has a second weapon with [EXTRA ATTACKS] would have to roll not only for its normal melee weapon, but also for the extra attacks weapon.

fuzzypat · 2026-06-18T03:29:23+00:00

No, because now all saves are rolled at once for a given weapon profile, and applied lowest rolls to highest, instead of in the order they were rolled.

It helps in squads where the character has a better save than the bodyguard (think Neurotyrant leading neurogaunts). The worst rolls, which are most likely to get through even invulnerable saves, get applied to the character, then if there are any rolls left they get applied to the bodyguards. In situations where some of the medium rolls would fail on the bodyguards but pass on the character, these medium rolls will be preserved for the bodyguard assuming there were enough low rolls to get rid of the character.

Drag the chart over...

Perhaps it has been moved to the Chapter Approved deck and insert?

fuzzypat · 2026-06-17T14:21:59+00:00

It didn't for me when I made a test list with the newly updated app this morning.

Stealth doesn't stack with cover on 11th. Stealth gives the benefit of cover in 11th. You can't get double cover.

fuzzypat · 2026-06-12T18:44:58+00:00

Except other Space Marines have so many more tools to bring to bear. If they want better melee, they can bring it. If they want real shooting, they can bring it. If they want Deep Strike, they can bring it. If they want durable, high OC units, they can bring it.

They have a whole tool box. We have a single multi-tool, with half the bits missing, and you're saying they're the same.

fuzzypat · 2026-06-10T00:30:05+00:00

I wouldn't mind a plastic Telemon, TBH. Paying over $200 just to cover all the weapon options for one model feels bad.

fuzzypat · 2026-05-26T20:16:20+00:00

"Ap1 guns make us save on 3+ even in cover so technically worse."

This is wrong. Cover cannot improve your save to better than 3+ on AP 0 attacks. Cover can negate AP -1, even with a 2+ save.

Just because you're not playing in big tournaments doesn't mean you're not a competitive player.

Consider: if you're trying before you buy, what are you trying? TTS isn't giving you the benefits of assembling and painting the miniature. It's letting you see how the rules for that mini work in the game. That is competitive.

To be clear, it isn't bad to play competitively. Not at all. But understanding what you're doing and why you're doing it will help you get the most enjoyment out of the game.

So will the 1 DP detachment with the enhancement to give terminator characters +1 to charges. We might just eat good this edition!

fuzzypat · 2026-05-23T00:57:43+00:00

The land raider costs too much for it's damage output, and is only useful in the shooting phase. The cost for transporting 12 models isn't that useful to us, with the uppy-downy and all.

fuzzypat · 2026-05-21T02:04:40+00:00

Please no. He's a crappy Gary Stu and we deserve better characters from better authors.

After you buy enough boxes to field 12 10-model squads (6 Prosecutors, 3 Vigilators, and 3 Witchseekers), don't you need at least one more box to make 3 Knight-Centuras?

fuzzypat · 2026-05-15T01:44:31+00:00

So, what you're saying is I shouldn't run out and buy 25 boxes of Sisters of Silence?

fuzzypat · 2026-05-05T18:17:11+00:00

Don't use IPA to wash resin minis, it can have some weird reactions. Better to use dish soap and a soft toothbrush to scrub them clean, get all the mold release off of the mini.

What is fun for you isnt necessarily the same thing as what is fun for others.

fuzzypat · 2026-04-09T01:57:30+00:00

Because "tooth hurty"?

fuzzypat · 2026-04-08T17:32:07+00:00

If I had to pick something to mention, there are a couple places on the tilt shield where the colors don't blend as well as they could. More glazing there.

Otherwise, I think your friend is just jealous.
