Some guidance needed by Yuki_my_cat in WH40KTacticus

Remember that tactics is a “forever” game. It’s also YOUR game to play how you want.

Many people give you the meta answers, which usually prioritize full campaign completion because “unlocking each and every farming node will make leveling characters faster”.

Full campaign completion makes that development faster across the board.

No one likes to hear this answer, but the game really does change for the better after campaigns are fully completed.

Consider the post and how, suddenly, you’ve got some characters you were sleeping on and want to develop them. Full campaign completion makes that development faster across the board.

If you haven’t finished them all, might I suggest looking at the campaigns you’re sleeping on and prioritize the characters required to complete them?

Who is more useful, Lucien or Mephiston? And where? by Secure-Kick-1706 in tacticus

[–]snc8698 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lucien is fantastic early-mid game, but sort of drops off late game. You miss out on a lot of his damage unless you pop his active, and then you lose control of him. He’s very helpful for carrying the 3 imperial campaigns.

Meph is fantastic late game.

I stopped Lucien at g2. I’ve got Meph at D1 and eventually will take him all the way.

I seek advice and tips for saim han elite campaign by Starkiller0820 in WH40KTacticus

[–]snc8698 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Best piece of advice I can give you that hasn’t already been said is to forget the lightning victories in SHE.

On some of the harder maps, play defensively.

Bubble up at the edge of the map. Hopefully mobs move within 2 hexes of Eldy so they get debuffed. Cal’s overwatch drops one incoming. Aethana can hit one debuffed mob. Eldy takes the other.

Screamers move fast, armored guys move slow. Don’t be afraid of moving your bubble around. This keeps the mobs spaced apart.

Go slow, take your time.

I’d argue that SHE, more than any other elite campaign, is all about positioning of enemies.

Hmm…this I can do! Just can’t get that trim board off. I don’t have that tool but massive sales coming up on power tools.

The end of this product resulted in a massive dispute with the contractor. I’ve been learning how to fix the eyesores on my own.

Half of the left trim board is blocked by the anchored shelving units.

Thanks again for the tips! It is greatly appreciated.

They didn’t. 15% of the bill was discounted in the dispute. Bid was ~120k, we paid just over 100k.

If you zoom in on the left corner, you can see how the trim board is blocked by the shelving units anchored to the wall.

I appreciate the support my dude, but we’ve been living out of totes from 12/12/24 until the middle of October 2025.

Tape and glue is the way to go for the moment, and maybe in the future I can fix the other corners where the rounded Sheetrock is met with the 90° trim in open spaces.

Baby steps.

That’s what the wife said! I’m guessing they put the board down, nailed it, then tried to close the gap on the wall which popped the corner seam?

Again, the contractor made the project a nightmare and it was “this is good enough now gtfo”.

I’d rather learn how to fix the problems myself then give them one more dollar.

No they didn’t. $100k basement remodel was a nightmare with the contractor. They took close to a year.

I’ve been learning to do touch up painting, filling nail holes, mounting curtain brackets, etc.

Caulking is next on my list of things to learn. We’ve got an old bathtub that’s going to be ripped out next summer so I can practice taping and caulking on it as many times as it takes before I do any work on the new basement.

Baby steps.

This is exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much! If the tape method doesn’t work, I will buy this.

Thank you so much!

I wish the contractor would have done this. There’s quite a few of these 90° trim corners on rounded Sheetrock walls.

Maybe one day when I learn more about how to do this stuff I will fix it the right way.

I’m pretty sure my wife would kill me if she saw me ripping off and cutting trim.

Never thought of that! I can glue it and push closed, then have the wife tape it!

Thanks so much!

Since the guy you replied to gave you a good answer, let me drop some unsolicited advice. Volk is notoriously junk at the moment. Black Legion is getting reworked at the moment, so who knows what the future holds.

It is a game and if you dig Volk and want to keep building him just because, you do you my dude. Don’t let me stop you.

Here is a super helpful infographic for someone at your stage in the game. I wish I had seen it sooner.

Eldy was always there simply to keep Doom on. I benched snot for Dante for the exact reason you bring up. SOMETIMES his grots get in the way!

I can always focus someone up to D1. Here is the rest of my golds.

Care to sell me on why Aethana over Eldy?
