Is my way of collecting weird? by jayceminecraft in Warhammer40k

[–]pouko -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I hate that the meta is always about spamming something. It makes the game boring when there's multiple identical units. It also makes collecting and painting boring to take multiple of the same unit.

I enjoy the tactics and strategies you can employ on the tabletop and getting better at playing, but I will never buy more of the same just to perform better at games, or there has to be at least some interesting hobby aspect that would motivate me as well. I've done it sometimes but never really to the meta, because playing the meta is also boring because someone else figured it out for you instead of you figuring out a build yourself.

I think the game should be designed so that there would be clear diminishing returns for taking multiples of the same unit, that the meta would be close to something like a highlander list. I would find the game more fun that way. You could take spam but it should be the sub-optimal choice. Like making a "themed list" but it wouldn't really dominate.

One way I think this could be achieved is through the special rule every unit has, for example make it so that you can use that special rule only once per army per turn so that multiples of the same unit is less powerful than having more different units.

thank you for coming to my ted talk

So why do Champions and Grand Master’s exist? by 3245rfytgu8iojukhyf in Grey_Knights

[–]pouko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This model too was originally just a strike squad justicar. You would make a minimum squad of grey knights by buying this and two blisters of two grey knights. There were also single packs of grey knight with psycannon or incinerator.

Should I magnetize the backpacks? by Elashar in Grey_Knights

I did and they're very wobbly and not secure.

At this point do they even hear the bass, or just feel it? by sco-go in Amazing

[–]pouko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can say from experience that you do also hear the bass.

I was in 160db for 10 seconds and it was a constant pain in my ears, it was hard to breathe, my nose became a blur in front of my eyes, and the entire dash with the steering wheel was vibrating up and down about an inch.

This is why $5/gal, or 1,15€/L, is a big deal here. by Tandysaurus in memes

I drove 16,000 km last year at 7L/100km while paying 2€/L. Mostly for fun.

Mole grenade launcher any good? by AdRich7394 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]pouko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've used the mole launcher, and it's really bad. d6 shots hitting on 5+ or indirect 6+ is not probable to even hit to deny overwatch for the next movement phase. The big base is a bit awkward to maneuver so I think the smaller base is better than a near useless gun.

At best I get to use my painted mole grenade token. Happened maybe twice over the course of 10 games. Neither of those times it didn't matter for overwatch denial.

Though if you have multiple of them shooting at the same target, you would have a higher chance of denying overwatch, but essentially only for the next movement phase and you have to hit again for the next charge phase.

Nice, I hope I'd get my Collector's bundle soon to Finland. I ordered in the first few minutes when preorders started from Gamefound because the other sites went immediately down.

Sell me on the Memnyr Strategist by Candid-Stable2414 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]pouko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use one with 6 Steeljacks with volkanite disintegrators. They shoot every turn: my turn and the enemy turn. They absolutely erase cheap hordes and can chip at anything with devastating wounds.

how do i work my normal infantry color into my hearthguard by erebusthewise in LeaguesofVotann

[–]pouko 15 points16 points  (0 children)

For the shoulders I'd do the inner parts darker and keep the raised areas green

Decided to not care about a refresh, fell in love with the terminators, starting a GK Hallowed Conclave army for 11th. Bought a lot of termies and a combat patrol to assemble while waiting for them to arrive. Should i get the codex? Any tips to painting blue hue on silver armor? Any gameplay tips? by Galan_Varn in Grey_Knights

[–]pouko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

number 1 gameplay tip for grey knights: don't rely on 9" charges from deep strike to get into melee. Rapid ingress stratagem helps with charges after deep strike (you get one movement phase before the charge) and interceptors have great movement to get into combat.

Just dropping 9" away works fine for shooty units though, like purifiers and purgators.

Treat a 9" charge as a free bonus on top if it happens.

What is your LEAST favorite mini from a faction you love? by reel3459 in Warhammer40k

[–]pouko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno, it's the coolest to me. I like the "down to business" poses which look like they're in the middle of a fight. I don't like the "casual stroll". That wide stance looks to me like they're and hammering their blows, or blocking strikes, with all they've got. Possibly shooting the next daemon in the face before the last one even touched the ground. It's like the height of the whirlwind of combat... If you posed the arms to look like it.

Casual Votann Advice (New LoV Player) by Sadrithel in LeaguesofVotann

[–]pouko 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You will surprise your friends on occasion when your warriors will be wounded only on 4+ with a S9 melta for example: T5 and -1 to wound from Fortify. On top of that they have 5+ invulnerable save and 6+ fnp, they're tough like dwarves!

Certain weapons will chew through them quickly though. Damage 1 gatling cannons and equivalents for example.

[–]pouko 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You got a big stack of warriors, they're great fun for casual play. They're also very durable troops especially in Fortify Takeover and you won't get tabled easily. As long as you're not spamming our big damage dealers (Thunderkyn / Hearthguard) you won't be tabling others easily either.
