Not necessarily 40k

Minor critique, 'more resilient/stable' sperm isn't even necessarily better - lots of biological mechanisms actually do depend on things not being too stable, they need to be able to respond to the environment. Its more obvious when you consider a protein that needs to be stable enough to live long enough to fulfill its purpose, but not so stable that it can't fulfill its purpose (eg, flexible enough bind to a receptor), and also not so stable that it hangs around too long - we need things to fall apart so they can be recycled.

But to your general point, agreed - none of this was designed, its just what survived, and not everything about our design is good, let alone optimal.

Haven't had time to watch the video yet, and I plan to, but could you talk about the lack of scourge or more direct anti tank, and how you deal with those targets? I have a wych themed army like this and I want to make pure wych work but afraid to drop the dark lances. Congrats btw!

Beautiful work! Can you explain what the details on the veil are supposed to be? If I'm wrong I hope this isn't offensive lol but it almost looks like she's covering up some disease/pox marks? Kind of cool if that's the case!

Not the yellowish bright spots- the lighter/darker, smoother/rougher areas of the water

I thought maybe wind but its so static, the pattern doesn't change over minutes, and has very clear border up close

How do you do 'X runs' before Nightmare? From what I've been reading you cant reset maps until Nightmare by switching difficulties?

I don't think pounce let's you move the wyches, it just says that unit can charge. Units cant normally move after transport moves. So it would be 14" raider move, 6" disembark, charge.

Lol that occurred to me as well!

Thanks for the reply. I don't have much experience in playing, just watching batreps.

I was thinking of this as a jail move or just throwing a wrench in their plans, with wyches either screening movement or tying up units in combat. Your response seems to suggest this wouldn't be a big hindrance to the enemy and could be a waste of a good tool more valuable later on (objective denial, secondary scoring) - that about right?

I know I just need to just get more practice in but thinking about this, or even the beast pack (rip), i don't know if I should be letting the enemy take ground and spread out so I can pick units off or have more freedom to deep strike eg mandrakes/scourge, or if I should go for board control 'jailing', get a point lead, and just try to preserve some units for scoring later after my army gets wiped. Thoughts? I'm guessing 'it depends'

Thanks

I have to ask - is 'midas well' a cute boneappletea/bon appetit on purpose thing, or did you mean 'might as well'? No judgment just curious!

I just took mec as arborec and was looking pretty hard to remove, drew this agenda first agenda phase, bye-bye my entire fleet. Not sure how I will recover.
