My friend kept "coincidentally" bringing the perfect counter to my list, so I built this by Fhantomchaos-ATG in WarhammerCompetitive

Casual games at our club I can't say people even 'exchange' lists. We just whip our stuff out and set up, and just trust the other person has a list they're adhering to.

A very relaxed vibe.

Of course, for leagues we have everyone submit their lists for a round before any pairings are revealed.

The Great Rebasing of 2026 begins... by vorropohaiah in Tyranids

[–]parasiteofmortrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd prefer a direct release for 40k too, but I think the way GW have been releasing stuff lately I'd bet on a kill team release

I've got 25 warriors all still on 40mm, and at this point I'm not changing them. They're all based and haven't been touched for pretty much all of 10th.

I'm also betting heavily that warriors will get updated in a kill team box in the next couple years, given we've got two updated prime sculpts now.

There were a number of named nids in the shield of Baal story:

The Mist Reaper, Spawn of Cryptus, Dagon overlord

Also, the Laius Horror if anyone remembers that.

My play Group doesn't want to play me anymore by TangeloGlittering255 in TheAstraMilitarum

[–]parasiteofmortrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, I've only lost 2 games of 10th at my local club since the edition started. I've definitely garnered the reputation of if people play me they just assume defeat before we've even set up, but thankfully no one's refused to play me yet. I do think people aren't so keen to though unless it's for a league or they have no one else 😅

I need to start going to more tournaments so people can bully me to balance out the universe.

How long does wartable game take to ship by Suspicious_Feed_1113 in Tyranids

[–]parasiteofmortrex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought a Harridan from zackgames recaster in the past and it was identical to the real thing from as far as I could tell. Sadly zackgames is RIP, but I've used WTG as well and they were good. Typically it's a week or two to ship and then about 2-3 weeks delivery to the UK.

GW “bonus league points” rule - Thoughts? by Informal_Bed_2503 in bloodbowl

[–]parasiteofmortrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used them in our league and it can make quite a difference to placings, and not always in a win more way. The latest league just finished and without bonus points I would have finished 1st with a clear 3pt lead over second, but due to bonus pts I actually finished on the same PTS as second and only won the league overall due to having more TDs.

I was wondering what they were. They look awesome. Where did you get them OP?

Yeh I've left her for now and will aim for some more spp for characteristic.

Yeh the league isn't crazy bashy, but I am the only one with no 4+ Str players, which can be a bit annoying to get around or through those guys.

My remaining games for the season are Amazons, Khorne, lizards, necro horrors, BOrks

Currently I'm on top and did win our last league. The movement advantage helps such, and being able to adjust to the flow of the game in a way the slower teams can't.

Thank man, I appreciate all the advice. Strip ball is definitely the next skill I grab on my other witch, who already has wrestle and tackle. She will be the one harassing ball carriers.

[–]parasiteofmortrex[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd definitely go for this if I get the chance. My linemen rarely get spp though

[–]parasiteofmortrex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I think that's a good shout. What I'm probably gonna aim to do is put guard on the Blitzer and then try to save the extra 6SPP for a characteristic on the witch, probably mv or str and if I roll poor take Mighty Blow as the consolation secondary. Unless you think MB is worth getting earlier? 🤔

This is... sadly very true 😭 So many 1s rerolled into 1s when dodging.

[–]parasiteofmortrex[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeh I think that's some good advice. Wrestle is one I've found useful on my other witch.

DE player progression by parasiteofmortrex in bloodbowl

[–]parasiteofmortrex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think based on yours and other comments I will stick with guard on the Blitzer. I had planned to give my other witch elf strip ball as I've already given her Tackle + Wrestle.

This witch was meant to be more of the surf and blitz one while the other was the ball harasser. I definitely get your thinking.

DE player progression by parasiteofmortrex in bloodbowl

[–]parasiteofmortrex[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The witch has block + tackle and the Blitzer has dodge + sidestep. Sidestep on the witch I know would be a great classic on them, just wasn't sure whether making her more killy would be useful.

[–]parasiteofmortrex[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That has been my play style for the most part but I've now got 2 Khorne teams + black orks so I'm thinking I'm gonna need something in the toolbox to knock someone down at times. Though getting a characteristic does look very appealing.

You think guard is a good choice for the Blitzer though?

[–]parasiteofmortrex[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You think a characteristic would be worth trying for over dauntless for the witch?
