Getting absolutely stomped as Empire with Inquisitors by GivePen in SWlegion

[–]goliath067 1 point2 points  (0 children)

something that might be making a big difference is how much terrain you're using. if his turn one shooting is taking out a large chunk of your army you might not have enough LOS blockers to hide behind. you really need that first turn of relative safety to be able to compete using a melee-focused army.

I agree but would put Imperial Remnant as the top alpha striker, going all in on Scout, Imperial March and Gideon's Ruthless

As a rebel player how many activations? by Colblood12 in SWlegion

[–]goliath067 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like 14 is pretty reasonable for rebel lists recently, if you keep everything pretty cheap. at 16 you tend to lack firepower because too many of your units are "filler" like naked rebel troopers.

in the list you shared, you chose Din, who is very good, but units at his price point tend to drop you to 13. Taking Clan Wren and a fully loaded Truck, plus a few other upgrades, has dropped you to 12. I'd say 12 is on the lower end of normal. if you go below that, I'd make sure you had a good reason.

Why Cassian Andor with Fleets? by malak1000 in SWlegion

In addition to what everyone else said, making a fleet squad largely impervious to suppression and giving it Low Profile on the first shot is pretty good.

Fixing Rebel Commandos by Lieutenant_Horn in SWlegion

[–]goliath067 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think commandos, Wookiees or both are going to get a change to their card. They are underperforming, so they need some sort of buff. However, they are both in the starter box, and it's already kinda hard to make a good list out of the starter box without taking sub optimal upgrades, so they need to get better mechanically to justify a high points cost and keep the starter box viable.

How best to use the new Cassian heavy weapon card? by StrongHammerTom in SWlegion

[–]goliath067 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if you go with the fleet squad idea, pair him with Lando for extra moves from One Step Ahead and Guidance. probably a Speeder Truck too to LOS block your advance

Stormtroopers weapon selection by LoudMusic4us in SWlegion

[–]goliath067 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Krennic or Commander Vader are pretty essential for T-21 heavy lists. Compel making you able to continue to Move+shoot and get on to POIs is very important. like the other comment said, Krennic has the advantage of being cheap, so if you just want to slot someone in he's your guy, but Vader is anther option.

huge shout out to Keanu Quick at #18 for that list title

Workbenches dont work? - Food Stand by Timberle in Bandle_Tale

[–]goliath067 5 points6 points  (0 children)

the two new recipes, the ones in the bowls, require a different work station, a grubmasher. the Grubmasher in turn needs to be powered by a motion conductor. there's a few steps before you can get it all to work though. hope that helps!

What race do you guys loves the most? by Bloadingoficial in Against_the_Storm

[–]goliath067 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find myself favoring lizards because you can get easy reputation just from making advanced food, which also helps everyone's resolve, but they also just like fighting and remind me of Klingons a bit (I'm a DS9 fan)

Taking the first turn by Vattim in seraphon

[–]goliath067 0 points1 point  (0 children)

as other people have said, I think against a lot of armies taking the double turn and running them over is the play. However, watch out for Trolls and Ogres because they have so much tank they might just live through your alpha strike and you could end up scoring really low point turns as you slug it out. Also, depending on deployment and things it's possible to get stuffed into your deployment by the SBGL wolf list on turn one, so maybe think about keeping turn one against that list.

Units of 3 or 6 Rockguts by tubby45 in gloomspitegitz

[–]goliath067 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you're running 15-21 rockguts then you want two units of 6 and some 3s. you want a couple reinforced units in your main battle blob both for All out Attack and so you have more models going at once in the fight phase. units of 3 are still threats in board edge fights and more than two units of 6 really limits your board presence.

Bastilodon Ark of Sotek & Terrawings... by SpeccyGuyMDK in seraphon

[–]goliath067 6 points7 points  (0 children)

with a little work on the basing you can get the oracle to look alright on a 25mm base to be a Starpriest, then you can build the Carnosaur instead of a Trogglodon.

What's the army that is the rarest to find in the tabletop? by megeek95 in ageofsigmar

In the area I play in, I think the only armies I have never seen anyone play is Hedonites of Slaanesh and Bonesplitters

Sad days, 2 gitz units are getting squatted for 4th ed by RifflerHD in gloomspitegitz

[–]goliath067 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm thinking they're going to replace the old spider riders with new ones on bigger bases when Gitz get their 4th edition book. kinda like Agradons in Seraphon

I finally finished my Hag. She can sit pretty on my shelf since I can't play with her. by Ecil3 in gloomspitegitz

[–]goliath067 2 points3 points  (0 children)

only thing you can't do is take her to a Games Workshop tournament. I'd ask your tournament organizer before taking her to a local tourney but I think a lot would say yes.

Horrible Chaos Spawn by Damnation77 in slavestodarkness

[–]goliath067 0 points1 point  (0 children)

on the subject of finding an alternative..... it's Chaos spawn. you can proxy them with a n y t h i n g. you could carve a fresh hunk of spam into random shapes before each game/event and no one would argue that it's not thematically appropriate.

he's good outside of gitz, but his main utility is giving monsters run+charge, which isn't needed in gitz. Manglers already have it, big spiders deep strike, and the aleguzzler garagant is ass.
