GW’s reaction to the UK’s request for construction and manufacturing industries to start up again could prove interesting.(prime minister address to the uk as of Sunday)

We may see GW take a decision one way or another in plans to resume, or continue to halt production

My guess is the rules team is sitting on the actual interesting tidbits but hanging back till they can get some sort of date parameters to drum up hype to.

Flyer speculation time

Looking at the fliers I think they will have the following weapon loadouts

Twin Cognis lascannons

48" range
Heavy 2
S9
AP-3
D6 damage

Twin Heavy phosphor blaster

36" range
Heavy 3
S6
AP-2
1 Damage

Twin heavy stubbers

36" range
Heavy 3
S4
AP0
1 damage

We think 150 -170 points yeah?

The real question will be BS3 or BS4 after moving

Really hoping they get a rule to ignore heavy penalty.

What do you lads think?

@yukishiro1

What makes you think they are raising the points on vehicles.

I’m not suggesting you are incorrect (they may well do) but when did they confirm that was the case? I think I missed that reveal

I wonder if they have done any price discrimination studies. Because they probably lose more money in the long run if a unit becomes a one-of or two-of instead of a three-of.


It’s a bit like the steam sales for pc games. I know I wouldn’t buy any games ever but when it’s dirt cheap I end up spending loads. If it’s cheap enough I’ll go nuts

I'm pretty torn on Divinations of the Magos. I never see a situation where you have assault units within 6" of your Warlord when they charge. All of our assault units operate independently, with different movement profiles than any of our characters.

If you're using your Warlord to buff a castle, you'll very rarely use Predator Programming. So then the question is whether Overlord Safeguards is better than Cawl? Maybe, maybe not?

The one situation I see Divinations of the Magos being worth its salt is on a Manipulus pushing a horde of Vanguard up the mid field, since you'll use two modes regularly. I just don't know if that's actually any good.

I guess the big advantage all the new rules have is the old stuff is mostly such utter garbage they can't help but seem reasonable.


Aww, do you think Cawl would be exempt from this?

I was getting excited at Cawls Bots with WOM and Tesla

By Tesla I mean the extra hits for 6’s

I think the drills for 130 with flamers are pretty cheeky. Definitely going to be fielding mine

Yeah?

And here was me thinking it mayhe has the start of a balanced list. What would you change?

Ideally I want to play doggos and dakkabots- do you think they don’t compliment each other?

the second list above isn’t mine FYI

Just saw it online and wondered what folks thought of it. I haven’t had many games but I do like the utility of the dogs
Made in gb
Aspirant Tech-Adept






Yeah, I love the model so would like to find space in a list

I think it’s the clutch shutting off an aura - but some clearly place more value in that

I love the dogs. It’s the first thing I’m looking at when making lists. The ability to make an opponent fail a charge is awesome
Made in gb
Aspirant Tech-Adept






I much prefer the second list. I think the first one didn’t really suit the playstyle you wanted to go for

4 dakkabots is just such consistent firepower but perhaps dropping to 3 is an acceptable trade.

I’m really looking forward to trying mine out on a game Thursday (scotland is doing quite well with virus stuff)

Think I’m up against either a strong death guard or sisters list.

I am struggling to finalise my list though. They always start easy. Cawl, 5 ballistari, some dogs...

And then I just never know which direction to take

@U02dah4. Small world I stay in Aberdeen. Not many tournaments up here yet. I’m thinking of hosting one eventually. Have you heard of voidhammer in Elgin. That’s one I’m hoping to go to at some point.

Has Glasgow got a good tourney scene?

@Suzuteo ah my bad. I forgot belaros was blast

Ah cool. I’ve heard of common ground but have yet to attend. Maybe next year.

I met Andrew earlier in the year at a tournament. Nice guy and he offered me advice for me setting up a tourney.

8 events is a commendable number. I only really
Manage about 2-3 at most. Once things quiet down I hope to do more

Anyone heard of this 60 nurglings list that allegedly just teleports onto the objectives then sits there for 5 turns racking up points?

Myth? Real? Something we can handle?

I love dakkabots but I’ve played some pretty terrain heavy boards recently that they would have struggled on.

You never know what you are going to get in tournaments. I’ve played on planet bowling ball before and had a table so dense with terrain I couldn’t move a knight through most of it lol
