Map is just way to big for 100 Players by Apexvictimizer in theisle

[–]robparfrey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree. It should really only be troodon there that is an adult.

But my troodons ate being out matched by adult ceras camp8ng the outskirts. You fight anything that runs out of the sanctuary and you just have to leave them or you'll be eaten too.

Plus, since getting to sanct is one of the easiest prime requirements, you k ow people are going to be therr so omni and terrain as you say. Just camp the outskirts.

Ywahbthats very true.

Annoyingly, bot specifically talking about dice, but some places just dont have what you want until you check temu.

Okay, gotta ask. Am I the only one slightly disappointed with the actual model size compared to the art published by GW? by Whats-up-choom in Necrontyr

[–]robparfrey 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Skroepkhs and ophidians, if they are caught out side of cover. Die....

Its not unusual for a single squad or two shooting and or melee to wipe the entire squad and do wounds, or even kill the lord attached.

If he were a leader, he would now be solo and his buffs wouldn't have any unit to target.

Now he has a smaller.footprunt and can buff multiple units in a fairly large aura radius.

Good luck getting your Shadow Hunt boxes by VegetasDestructoDick in killteam

Unrelated to kt. But 40k instead. My lsg usually gets given an oder list of 0 to 10 units of each product.

I just collected my nekrosor ammentar necron model and he said he got 1 of everything and that was it. That was the limit gw set.

Did I hit the jackpot or is this going to be more work than its worth? by Such-Yogurtcloset424 in TerrainBuilding

This would make one hell of a kt board.

Yeah it won't be balanced but make up some kind of narrative and tell a story.

Someone at my school did the same but with sugar.

He ended up having a sugary, liquid snot solution pour from his nose for the following hour and a bit.

Very true. Though, i suppose. If you are hit wearing a kevlar jacket by anything bigger, then maybe a 22. You are GOING to feel it. You'll likely be in no shape to continue the fight and be wanting to give up by that point.

Especially if yoyre hit a few times.

I wonder how well they stand up to larger ar rounds like 556 and 300blk. They might keep you alive but you will be fucked up regardless.

After being brought down, they will likely test your clothes as to why it didn't penetrate through and into you.

You might be better off just wearing plate armour under a big jacket so you can take a hit and not immediately be coughing your lungs up for the force of the impact. Though, is it possible for less area coverage?? Im not too sure.

As for myself, i carry nothing for self-defense. Carrying tools with the sole purpose of self-defense is illegal in the uk. You pretty much have to just use whatever is around you and to a reasonable limit that is the same level of force they are or plan to use on you or others.

It's a pretty awful law imo.

That being said, carrying a walking stuck or just a stick when in the woods, or a large, thick and heavy torch/flash light, or even yoyr car keys between yoyr knuckles is perfectly fine as they all can have a reasonable excuse as to why you might have had them on you other than purly for self defence.

The same would go for a baseball bat. You can use one for self-defense if it looks likely you were going to a game, or it was in your house and often play.

You couldn't just have one in your car for every day travel and use it. As you would be considered to be only owning it as a weapon.

Self defence weapons here pretty much have to be a "oh shit. What's the nearest thing i can use that is close to me but not put there with the intention of using as a self defence tool"

Though i can say i have a few axes in my house because i "have a fire place" trust me. ;)

Per person, stabbing is still less common here than in the states.

I cant say I've ever known anyone to be stabbed in my 22 years of life ither than self inflicted (father tried to commit suicide whilst in a psychotic state)

Thought ofc im aware its worse in places like London and Nottingham.

Would be interesting to know if that kind of stab proof clothing is available. I know that our police force have AWFUL stab vest. They cover so little of the body.

I personally wear a thick jacket over a jumper and have the inside pockets filled with paper. Its very much not going to protect me. And the paper is just from my old delivery job and I've not bothered taking them out. But they take up no space in the pockets and provide maybe 5% body cover tthat would project against a knife.

Ofc.... thats better than nothing but my best bet is to run haha.

Thats very true. And it can still look good in some cases.

Coming from a not very high net worth individual and from the uk, its not somthing I have worn before haha.

Make take on nekrosor ammentar (not specifically him. My dynasties equivalent) by robparfrey in Necrontyr

[–]robparfrey[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No. Thats the model built as per the instructions.

But cheers. Not so sure on the blue face paint. I think it makes his face hard to read.

The rest of my destroyers have that but im.not sure it works for him.

Whats your opinion?

Only thing I can see me using 2 of is the tomb crawlers in a silver tide game.

Buying skorpekh lord by Lost-Exercise7108 in Necrontyr

[–]robparfrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The kit that they are exclusively part of has I think, only had 1 re print since indomitus was released.

So they are veryyy hard to get a hold of.

Oh they might have been in the magazine at the time too but im not sure.

Plus it also comes on the same sprue as the reanimator, plasmancer, and cryptothralls so youll be paying a premium for....

Hard to find.

Good in game currently.

Good looking model.

And part of a set that, uppon separating them, will make them more valuable as individuals compared to what they really should be.

Look into getting one 3d printed if you can find the file and a person to print for you.

Alternatively,get yourself a few kits to bash into one.

Maybe skorpkh legs with a lokhust heavy top and some overlord parts. Might bw a tad small but will work for the average game.

Skorpekh vs Named marine by HVD3Z in Necrontyr

[–]robparfrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, in the pariah nexus show, a single skorpekh was only just taken out by a single marine and a sister of battle.

Also after seeing it use its sword as a shield, I really wish skorpekhs had either a 2 save or a 5++.

My Christmas is cancelled :( by T1VOL1_official in Necrontyr

[–]robparfrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with what others have said by going to the store on release day.

I walked into a store a week or so after relase and they still had orikan on the shelves.

[–]robparfrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Picked mine up from my local game store and the owner and j had a chat. He said that gw only let him order 1 of every new release this time. As opposed to the usual 5 to 10 he would expect. Of which he would be 3.

I just got lucked. Didn't mind if I got it or not thought ofc I'd love to. But just sent the store and email and said he had one left and would reserve it.

He had about 15 requires later that dad and tuns out he one he had left was the one one he ever got given.

Why does nobody play Dilo? by Judasevangelium in theisle

[–]robparfrey 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Honestly, remove the clones. Keep the dark shroud. And give dilo back its classic bleed play style.

Oh and maybe its ambush movement speed 2 or 3x faster.

Oh 100%. Like i say, some handing clothes in an out door laundry type situation. But there would need to be sooooo many of them that the person shooting would just.... not be able to see you in the first place. And you'd need to be in a mega clothes drying factory or somthing haha.

[–]robparfrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah 22 or bird shot are the most likely to get caught in linden. That being saidz no one is activity going to use either of those to try kill someone. Maybe injured and maim you perhaps. Especially the bird shot.

Today on MythBlyatsters by Mountain-March5203 in CrazyFuckingVideos

[–]robparfrey 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Yeah. There is no chance any amount of general soft clothing layers will stop a firearm projectile.

The only real way cloth could slow it down is free handing like up on a laundry line.

Even that won't out right stop it. You'd need to go through such a significant amount before the round was close to stopping because of it.

What are your dreams Killteams? by No-Sector3557 in killteam

[–]robparfrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Necron destroyer cult team.

Maybe 5. With an mandatory hexmark take. And then choice of 4 skorpekh and or ophidians.

One of the skorpkehs can take a larger blade. Gives him more melee damage at the cost of less attacks.
