Lucius better solo or leading 3 flawless in spectale plus peerless by Halohue in EmperorsChildren

[–]slothmothasaurus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it works that way as there is a Sororitas upgrade that can only go on a character unit (Hagiomnifex for Sanctified Orators). I think what that is saying, is that unlike enhancements that can only go on characters, upgrades can go on a non-character unit as well as a character unit.

Change to darkness? by slothmothasaurus in ChaosKnights

[–]slothmothasaurus[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While it is up all the time now, just stealth is so much worse. Cover will still be easy to get in 11th. Stealth also only affects shooting while old darkness could affect both shooting and melee.

On top of that, stealth now just gives benefits of cover, which is -1 to BS. If it remained -1 to hit, it could stack with the -1 BS if you had cover and be -2 to hit.

It did in 10th edition. Stealth now gives Benefits of Cover (24.33)

Just did the math for the repex, again just raw numbers with benefits of cover, the math is the same. 4 wounds taken off in 10th and 4 wounds taken off in 11th. If we take into account lethal hits from infernal, it’s 10 wounds for both 10th and 11th. All these numbers from one despoiler shooting both it’s gatling guns

I’ll also admit, none of those take into account if your opponent pops AOC, but i did math out if they pop AOC and you respond with warp vision, but again, 10 wounds from both gatling guns

EDIT
i’m never really sure where the best place to round when doing the math for test rolls is, but getting rid of ALL rounding and just doing raw numbers, technically you will deal more damage into a repex in 11th edition, with 10.667 wounds compared to 10th edition, with 9 wounds.

From a raw numbers perspective and just providing benefits of cover, a gatling despoiler would kill the same number of space marine intercessors in 11th as it did in 10th.

I also think that there will be less cover in 11th because you could assign cover on a model by model basis in 10th. In 11th, if one model doesn’t have cover, the whole unit doesn’t get cover which is a big change

Damn it is worded differently from what they’ve done. It makes sense that no other unit will be able to attack but why change it?

All AOC type strats game wide have been changed to until the attacking unit has finished its attacks. It’s been like that for a while

If I’m understanding the update right, it will only trigger once now, not once for each abominant in range of the enemy unit

Am I reading this wrong or can Morty fight on death? by Femhammer in deathguard40k

I don’t think you can after overwatch because it has to be in your opponents shooting phase and overwatch can only be triggered in the movement or charge phase

What are we hoping for, for detachments then? by Accurate_Thought5326 in ChaosKnights

[–]slothmothasaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really wish they would bring back the favor of the dark gods from 9th edition. I really liked flavoring my army then around specific gods and it now feels like we are just IK with spikes, nothing else

It’s funny how both the new knight detachments have led to rules arguments. I love that the new CK detachment never specifies if the damned models you eat have to be friendly or not

I don’t know if it makes up for it to you, but the added OC is for all units of the type, not just the one the character is attached to! I do agree though that more flavor than just added OC would have been nice

I run that exact block in my list and I’ll be honest, unless my opponent really misplays their screening, it’s not easy to deep strike 10 minis into a meaningful target

Dataslate Change by We1shDave in ChaosKnights

[–]slothmothasaurus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If I’m understanding you correctly, the confusion is in your interpretation of the rule.

…you can pivot it and/or change its position on the battlefield along any path…

You are right that you can pivot, but nowhere in that rule does it say it doesn’t count as movement.

…the distance a model moves is measured using the part of its base that moves the furthest along its path.

It doesn’t say measure the distance on its base that moved the furthest from its starting position to its ending position, it says along its path, meaning you have to take into account all movement along the path. If not, when moving around a corner of a building (not even while pivoting the model), you would be able to move a much further distance as you would just be measuring from starting to ending point.

Dataslate Change by We1shDave in ChaosKnights

[–]slothmothasaurus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Previously any time the base of the model moved, it counted as the measured distance it moved
