<![CDATA[Latest posts for the thread "Thousand sons, Help pls."]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/69.page JForum - http://www.jforum.net Thousand sons, Help pls. Getting back into 40k with a brand new purchase of new 20 TS marines, 10 Terminators, and a box of exalted sorcerers. About to purchase the Wrath of Magnus set.
Looking for any advice on what's good what's not, tacitics, things I should look out for. I haven't played in years so looking to get back into the swing of things and paint these awesome models. And to field a primarch at some point.

What data card sets should I also be on the hunt for?

Thanks]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9332437.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9332437.page GMT Thousand sons, Help pls.
The models you have, plus magnus seem like a great core, but until the new rules come out I'd hesitate to buy anything else just yet.

Personally I'd suggest getting what you have painted and tabletop ready in the meantime.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9332450.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9332450.page GMT Thousand sons, Help pls. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9332574.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9332574.page GMT Thousand sons, Help pls. GW community on FB and have to say I have mixed feelings. I'm excited becuase the AOS rules actually grew on me which looks like 40k is headed in the same way. Simplier, faster, but will not be easy to master with the way things could stack in your favor. (Bloodbound) And worried about the unknown and how it'll effect the thousand sons.

Guess I'll just build and magnetize the models that have special/heavy weapons and paint paint paint. Well hears to the new way of WAR!!!!! Flamers sound deadly.

Also sounds like FW models could be played without needing opponents permission which sounds sweet as I see a new contemptor and non daemonic Magnus on the way. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9332876.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9332876.page GMT Thousand sons, Help pls. AOS, but I much prefer AOS to 40k, 30k is good but not very complicated.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9333191.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9333191.page GMT Thousand sons, Help pls. 2d6. This means expect your new rubrics to be just as effective against TEQ as your old. However, if SW:A is any indication, marines are going to get a 6+ save against inferno bolts now, which is a downgrade. They are also specifically tailoring the psychic phase to prevent Magnus from dominating, so expect him to show up less in small point games than he currently does. With the changes to blast templates and how they work, I'd expect the Exaulted Sorceror's boom shot to be slightly better. No idea on the DP's but hella wounds is gonna be good, able to be wounded by everything is bad, we'll see how it shakes out.

I think with the direction they are headed, emphasizing balance and play testing, psyker-star and deathball setups should probably expect some nerfing, but relative to everyone else you are still designed with the same advantages and core strengths as before. Good army, good time to play it. Ol' Nipplehorns is riding high. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9333602.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9333602.page GMT Thousand sons, Help pls.
The 1k sons are very detailed and taking a long time for me to paint. Though with a family I am lucky to get 2 six hour nights a week to.model.

This week 40k FB is going to preview Rubric Marines. Since this is the first unit showcased outside nilly marines I am expecting them to not disappoint...]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9352815.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9352815.page GMT Thousand sons, Help pls.

Seems the warpflame issue could be solved by replacing it with Soul blaze and give the Icon something else.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9352962.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9352962.page GMT Thousand sons, Help pls.

I hear you. Maybe a slow move stat will replace Slow and Purposeful and allow for overwatch. Cheaper cost hope fully to.upgrade.


That seems to be the case. Rubric Marines have a 5" move (the aspiring sorcerer has 6"), but there's no indication from this Datasheet that they can't Overwatch.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9356153.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9356153.page GMT Thousand sons, Help pls. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9358706.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9358706.page GMT Thousand sons, Help pls. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9359472.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9359472.page GMT Thousand sons, Help pls. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9360004.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9360004.page GMT Thousand sons, Help pls. MSU units of tsons with warpflamer pistols on the aspiring champions could be great for overwatch and if the enemy makes tactical retreats.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9360870.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9360870.page GMT Thousand sons, Help pls. https://www.warhammer-community.com/2017/05/11/new-warhammer-40000-datasheetsgw-homepage-post-4/]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9360895.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/724606/9360895.page GMT
