<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Time to break some caps."]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/16.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Time to break some caps. str-d, etc, certain high end LoW are rather stymied. Daemon lords & heirophants begin to pale versus their vehicular counterparts, in an interesting dichotomy to their 'standard' sized counterparts.
Now, I'm not going to pretend that this isn't a bandaid solution to a gaping chest wound, but I think it's about time we got heightened the caps on wounds. I know some will argue that GMC don't need more than 10 wounds because they get a save. That save is now an Achilles heel. Plus, the vast majority of weapons that can harm T9+ are ap2 as well. Str-d is a problem on its own so, another time on that one.
Anyway, for the "big bad" GMCs, up the wound cap. This might allow these 1000 point LoW to survive a round from gravcents or wraithguard for once.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/669658/8242777.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/669658/8242777.page GMT Time to break some caps. 40k needs is to escalate things further and further from the standard set by the bolter marine and the guardsmen. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/669658/8242974.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/669658/8242974.page GMT Time to break some caps.

Rather see Grav nerfed over making things stronger. Power Creep is a very real problem and the last thing 40k needs is to escalate things further and further from the standard set by the bolter marine and the guardsmen.
Don't worry, power creep will stop long enough to give CSM and IG each a subpar and poorly written codex, before continuing again. It'll balance itself out, due to humans and evil dudes always being the losers

GMC's need a nerf. 10 wounds and a save, plus resistance to poison, psychic powers and a gakton of other stuff leaves GMC's being very, very powerful. Grav was a direct counter to them, but should have been one or two shots fewer, and given to more armies.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/669658/8243009.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/669658/8243009.page GMT Time to break some caps. SHV's have some sort of dude that can repair HP's. To top all that, if you do actually kill it, there is a decent chance it nukes the area around it to punish you if you killed it in CQC.

Why can a heirophant not have 14 wounds? Aangrath 12 or so to give him a bit more staying power than a standard bloodthirster? Why is it only SHV's that get to break that 10 cap. How about the combined total HP/VS on superheavies gets capped to 10?]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/669658/8243551.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/669658/8243551.page GMT
