I wish the Word Bearers were the posterboys for Chaos, instead of the Black Legion. Actually have the Chaos Legion be the face of Chaos itself. It would make a lot more sense than Abaddon and his army of failures. It would make a lot more sense because Ultramarines are the face of the loyalist Space Marines. It would make more sense because of the Red versus Blue theme.

I just hate ADB/GW's love of Abaddon. Does anyone else hate Abaddon too?

would be better if we got regiment tactics allowing for any guard regiment to be played with slightly modified decurions like traitor legions.
What I'm saying is that I want a traitor legion supplement for guard and a new sprue with slightly different heads or something to represent these regiments

I'd love to see Imperial Guard tactics, though I feel like they should reflect the general idea of the force rather than being specific.

For Cadians, for example, it should be Adamantium Will for regiments that routinely deal with psykers and other horrifying BS, and other bonuses to holding a line against terrifying things.

Catachans would represent deathworlders as a whole, Furious Charge to show their extra toughness, and Stealth or Move Through Cover for their survival skills.

Stuff like that where you can further customize a guard force.

I think there's something like that in Imperial armour 3 actually. A random upgrade for Talleran Desert raiders that gives them move through cover but prevents them from taking Carapace armor.

Problem is it's hella expensive, when realistically fluffy stuff like that should just be a free option alongside other choices, especially if it comes with a built-in downside like that.

I feel like it should be a supplement of IG and MT since MT is shit right now.
Like for Harakoni warhawks, you run a tempestus list with the following regiment tactics:
"May not take tauroxes or commissars, may take vendettas, vultures and tarantula turrets, may use stormtrooper mission "operation hot drop": scion squads may assault after exiting a valkyrie if they do not shoot".
Also all tempestus scions gain a pistol in addition to their ccw.

Yeah. I'm picturing it like a sort of Traitor Legion style update for both the guard books with formations and detatchments with special rules for building your army a certain way, along with neat relics and warlord traits for all of them.

Steel Legion would have formations for tanks and mechanized infantry to an improved degree. Probably bonuses for firing out of transports/when exiting them and ignoring the lower damage table results and things like that.

Could even have something like that start collecting formation where dudes get a cover save for standing near their tank.

Just got paid after working overtime all weekend. Think I'm going to add on to my new BA army but unsure what to get. So far I have...
1 10 manTatical Marine squad
1 3 man bike squad
5 5 man Death Company squads
1 Death Company Dreadnaught
1 Dreadnaught I haven't built yet that I can turn into a DC, Furioso, Librarian, or normal Dreadnaught.
Astorath
BA Terminator Captain
DC Chaplain
1 Baal Pred
1 Stormraven Gunship
And I have Mephiston on order

I feel I need a Drop pod but could also grab a kit that comes with a tac squad and a Rhino. Also tempted to grab the Sanguinary Guard or Ravenwatch bike squad just to make my bikes look more Blood Angely.

What should I get next? What should I turn that 1 Dreadnaught into? Also how should I equip my bikes so it's not just the grav gun meta?

Abaddon is a badass in his own way; but I think past his whole maturation arc into becoming master of the Black legion, no one really knows what to do with him. On one hand, hes as much of a chessmaster as his Primarch. On the other hand, he has to get down and dirty on the ground like its Thanos versus the Justice League all Saturday every Saturday. He just looks ridiculous now.

There isn't really a way to improve his image in the HH either, since he was mostly just a yes man throughout the Heresy.

Invulnerable saves are usually supposed to be some sort of shielding, right? What if when making saves, you rolled the invulnerable save first followed by the armor save? Certain things would need to be changed for when you make that save, like Storm shields having 3++ in melee, but 5++ from shooting from the actual armor, but I think it would be a neat way to help termies with protection from small arms fire.

That's just bad luck. I've been playing them since 4th, and I remember the first save I made. I had a lone sister take a meltagun to the face, save, and then proceed to explode a rhino. The 6+ save isn't something to rely on, but it is nice when it happens. You'll be glad when you make a critical save on your exorcist or something.

The same is true against anything else with a 5/6+ save.

That's true. Now Orks are only going to be getting a 5+ against most basic infantry guns, even if you spend over half their points for it.

At that point, charging anything more than 2 points is absolutely criminal.

If you're going to play 10 Sternguard put them in a single Squad instead of splitting them and Combat Squad. This way you can keep 4/5 combi-meltas in one team and put Two heavy flamers in the other.

Aside from abstract costs, there needs to be more mechanical reasoning to not just spam shit like Riptide Wings. Show how unstable the new tech is (ie don't buff their reactors), and make it easier for certain unit types to engage Riptides while in turn leaving weaknesses that only Fire Warriors or Kroot could exploit, making it not just viable but reasonable to take those units.

Same would go for other armies.

Drop pod would only be good if you know what you want in it, so the box with a Rhino might be a better call.

Not certain on the Dreadnought, though I would say Fusurio or Librarian might fit in better. Standard dread would be an option if you feel lacking in long range fire support.

If you don't want Grav on bikes, then I would say melta. They're pretty good at moving fast and delivering it to vehicles.

It makes some sense. The big thing a lot of unit types determine is how far something moves and the default special rules. With movement being a stat, it may be better to simply have any special rules listed under the unit entry so you don't have to check the wargear list of a unit, check the core rulebook for that unit type, then check the special rules list for what it does.

Yeah. Toughness 10 means a Lascannon wounds on a 5, which is normal for the current rules. The -6 will basically get rid of any sort of save, and from there you need 3 average hits to get through the 8 wounds, with a minimum of 2.

Still quite a few shots, but assuming you just removed the vehicle damage chart from the current rules, you'd still be looking at 12 hits to get through it. If anything, 8 wounds is easier to chew through if weapons are dealing multiple wounds per shot.

Mortally wounded? The stab barely did anything to him and the Celestine was the one who ran after the stabbing.

He wanted to go after her and get his revenge but he saw that he ran out of time. He teleported away and the first thing he did was sit in hi throne and drink wine from Horus's skull as he ordered Cadia to be destroyed.

Heck, he didn't even rest. He went on the next battle pursuing the Imperials and then ending up fighting Ynnari and Imperials on the ice moon.

I mean seriously you morons understand nothing about how marine bodies work. Ever heard of the Black Carapace? Cite me a single marine who died from a back injury. You can't.

Only throat wounds can kill marines surely. Backstabs unless aimed at the two hearts at the same time won't do anything especially if its aimed at something not vital like the spine.

they are vastly outclassed by 10 man squads with 9 plasma/melta guns with deep strike and BS rerolling to hit or 9 heavy flamers to make every hoard player wish they never started that army.
Also 130 point vendettas and 100 point valks are better value or you can pay +25 points for the valk and give it +1 BS and all have deep strike anyway. So all in all the options are pretty useless since the only thing needed is longer ranged anti-tank which is why if a missile launcher is taken it's only with flakk missiles to be aa since none of those flyers can get skyfire with dfts now, though vendettas are pretty good as anti-air in a pinch

Yes, besides the Bloodborn Ultramar is a big place so there's going to be a lot of warbands hanging out there while the Imperium is distracted by Cadia. I could very easily see the Word Bearers having more than a few warbands in the area at the very least.

Because most aren't any tougher than a regular pleb soldier they command.
Also the game reserves sniping for actual snipers. You can't do it with a regular rifle so you sure as hell can't to it with a rocket. Plus it puts to much favour in the player who shoots first if they have an easy way to pick out all the enemies special or powerful minis.

>Except what is the fucking point of scattering the shot when the point where the blast actually happens is a complete fucking abstraction?
because the shot can scatter and hit few dudes and actually scattering the template is a simple and intuitive way of taking that into account.

some attention to accurate simukation is good, only to the point where it starts to become overly complex or gets in the way of fun.

>I think they meant to say it has no save.

You'd think wrong, since it was clear that he was referring to save modifiers. In exchange for Autocannons being able to 'glance' a land raider, the land raider would have an armor save that started at needing a 0 on the dice, and then got modified upwards. If an autocannon is at -2 save? The Land raider would still have a 2+

Would you want to fight a monstrous creature with Toughness 10, 8 wounds, and 2+ armor against most weapons?

Earlier editions had limitations on how many of what units you could take.

2nd edition specified how many of what units you could take per 1000 points, certain units had minimum points that they could be taken in and armies had very strict rules on what percentage of them could be certain types of things.

3rd edition simplified that general concept by having the force organization chart, which was mandatory and specified that you could only take limited numbers of some units (normally this was just stuff that was 0-1 per army).

Every formation being a legal primary detachment eveb if it contains no characters or troops choices is a terrible mistake and completely eliminates composition as a balancing factor.

Anyone already building/planning their Shadow Wars warbands? Based on the info we have I assume you'll get a 1000 pts to spend on your warband.

I've got the white dwarf with the Skitarii rules so I'm gonna start planning how many miniatures I could possibly field before things like upgrades.

Also, correct me if I'm wrong but why are people whining about 'but i wanted necromunda' isn't this basicly the same thing? You can easily proxy one of the 12 factions as your gang and the only downside is that they are not releasing new miniatures for the old gangs. But I'd rather have a system which already has a lot of miniatures available then new gang miniatures which are useless outside of necromunda.

I've been thinking. What if blast and template weapons caused random number of hits instead of using templates?
Like some psychic power work atm.

Cons:
-takes away from unit formations (spread out vs packed up)
-more dice rolls

Pros
-Streamlines gameplay
-Removes unclear situations and awkward template positions
-Stealth buff to hordes, stealth nerf to elite armies.

Adapting more regular usage of d3's for this would be good thing.

But then you have to deal with the fact that blasts are now hitting ICs or low count units more times than they have models. You really aren't simplifying anything more just changing the roll and making it make even less sense.

The only thing you've cut out is having to move the template, which isn't exactly rocket science.

except there are tonnes of ways to minimise the scatter with special rules, unit selection, positioning to not be BS0 with barrage, etc

you are needlessly buffing blast and barrage weapons against small units for no reason, while offering no real nerf of them against blobs

Counting number of units under template, buildings and floors, partial under template. Is the corner of that base in or out?, From my angle it looks like...

As opposed to Your unit is within 8 inches of my dude with a flamer. I get d3 hits. Or Okay I fire the Frag Missile it gets d3 hits. I fire the heavy flamer it gets d3+1 hits. It clears up template weapons into a roll, and none of the questions that seem to come up and need for extra rules that templates generate.

I've been out of the game for a while, but the "take whatever formation you'd like" seems broken.

I follow all the stuff going on and I am really wondering where they are going with the next edition and if a greater emphasis will be placed on balancing the game out. I understand that GW want to make money, but the powercreep is real and obnoxious.

I do have to say I played the game in a "among friends" setting, which was pretty fun to do. But things at the local GW would get pretty crazy at times (even back then).

If you're having that much trouble counting units under a template that's entirely your issue. You're getting rid of the chance that an explosion will scatter into another unit or a friendly unit, you're massively buffing explosive weapons against small units, you're actually hugely nerfing larger blasts by not allowing them to hit multiple units.

All because you can't take 30 seconds to draw a line down from your template to see if a base is under it or not.

In short:
your detachment starts off as basic CSM detachment.
you can choose to use legion-specific rules, if you abide by their legion's restrictions

So if you want multiple special chars, each using their own legion's rules, they all nedd to be in separate detachments
