    N17 Genestealer Cult Gang Updated

    That’s always been my favourite assault route.

    Adeptus Titanicus Unboxing

    Amazing what saying that thing A will be available does to people who really really really want thing B despite no-one actually saying thing B won’t be available… Next thing you know, they’ll do a Warhammr Community preview of the Delaque gang and everyone will scream about how it’s unfair that...

    Speed Freaks boxed set?

    Rokkit cannon!

    Necromunda Pre-Delaque/GW5/Compendium Release Ramblings

    Uh, one Necromundan IG regiment (the 8th) is called “the spiders” not all of them. It’s also certainly not the only regiment raised on Necromunda because only agri-worlds get away with only having one regiment. Given the population numbers for Necromunda, there’s nothing particularly preventing...

    Necromunda Pre-Delaque/GW5/Compendium Release Ramblings

    Maybe a reprint/update of the Venator gang? Like the chaos and genestealer cult ones, maybe with clarification on whether someone with house legacy can choose the enhanced option(s) when working a House dominion territory… Also some sort of discussion/announcement of what they’re going to do...

    Necromunda Pre-Delaque/GW5/Compendium Release Ramblings

    Eversor-like seems unlikely. Delaque are all about the subtle; Eversors are explicitly the exact opposite. Do you suppose that Escher could synthesise polymorphine…?

    Necromunda Pre-Delaque/GW5/Compendium Release Ramblings

    Pretty sure it was mentioned in passing during one of the seminars. So it may not turn out to be totally accurate after all, but that’s what I understood.

    Necromunda Pre-Delaque/GW5/Compendium Release Ramblings

    Don’t we already know that the collars are some sort of command and control intel suite that their leaders use to better coordinate the gang? They might not all have them and/or they might be an optional bit.

    Speed Freaks boxed set?

    According to arch-magos Anzion (and take this with an appropriately sized spoon of salt as he’s the same magos that ‘discovered’ the ‘psychic grease’ theory of Ork weapon design) a spore just needs sufficient light and growth medium to germinate, but what it develops into is determined by the...

    Second edition Warhammer 40k

    2nd edition biker bombs. That’s about when we stopped playing. Take a space marine bike unit. Accelerate it to fast speed. Point it at enemy commander. Emergency dismount. You now have five or ten unguided missiles with what amounted to better warheads than earthshaker cannon (stronger...

    The noose is a holy symbol on Necromunda, probably related to some forgotten saint who was martyred by hanging. So this dude is like those guys you see wearing multiple oversized crosses, just in case you had cause to doubt their devotion for a microsecond.

    Adeptus Titanicus Unboxing

    Guerilla Miniature Games and Gaming with the Cooler on YouTube have been using an old Imperator as a Warlord with a Vulcan Mega-bolter Array up top, Macro-Gatling Blaster, and Sunfury Plasma Annihilator on the arms. Not only is it appropriately sized, the load-out is a totally different tactical...

    Adeptus Titanicus Unboxing

    Yeah, the game as it stands is really solid with every unit having a place and something to do. Even the special formations are good but not overbearing. The basic Axiom with ‘you can keep issuing orders even if you screw up one’ is actually good enough that when you take one of the other types...

    Adeptus Titanicus Unboxing

    Yeah, the Warlord Is a gajillion bits, almost down to individual pistons, and the think Knights are adorable. The game itself looks great too between the advanced resource management and the tactical options available once you get more Titan types on the field.

    Adeptus Titanicus Unboxing

    The GME sold out right quick, but places like Dark Sphere are still showing the rules box and other bits as available.

    The Kill Zone: Sector Mechanicus is also a pretty insane deal; it works out at the cheapest price-per frame of an Sector Mechanicus set to dat and you get the pipes on top, IIRC. oh, and the board and extra rules. Edit: anyway, I’m pretty sure it’ll be early August for the Cawdor and GWIV with...

    Other than allowing access to the whole trade post and all the extra gubbins like pets and brutes? Not that I know of.

    Kandor? Wouldn’t a gang of tiny Kryptonians be kinda OP though?

    Cawdor/GW4 Speculations/Discussions

    It doesn’t get much focus generally, but the Imperium (and so the Ecclesiarchy) does distinguish between aberration and mutation. From little things like all Cadians having violet eyes through Catachans being, well, them, to Ratlings and Ogryns, all are variably tolerated. It’s stuff like extra...

    Ricochet tactics card - please explain

    Given that it’s a ricochet, I’d say count cover as though the shooter was located at the nearest point visible to both them and the new target, and range as the distance between the shooter and the old target plus 5" (regardless of the actual distance).
