    N18 Delaque Leader dilemma

    What are these whispers I hear? Who hired a propagandist? The orlocks? Escher?

    N18 Delaque Leader dilemma

    My thought is he doesn't really bring anything to the table other then an extra group activation over the various champs so I wouldn't be terribly upset if he bit the bullet. With the psyker option it would be to get him close enough to easily use his powers while staying out of line of sight.

    N18 Delaque Leader dilemma

    So i'm going to be starting a delaque gang find finding myself perplexed as what to do with my leader. The three options I was debating were: 1) overseer leader with web gauntlet and autopistol for countercharge 2) infiltrate leader to go in with the nact-ghuls with web gauntlet and flechette...

    N18 Noob falliing to the dark side

    The chaos guardsman or cultists from Blackstone are also a great place to start.

    N18 Feed back on GSC starting list.

    I would recommend the dual pistol skill (gunfighter? Can't remember the name) for your alpha. Hip shooting is great but is -1 to hit. Along with -1 from dual or triple wielding you only hit on a 5+. I would get hip shooting as a second skill.

    N18 Van Saar Goonhammer list

    Looks pretty good to start with. You have a lot of repeat bodies though. Also I found double plasma guns with van saar very hard for an opponent to deal with which made games less fun. My recommendation would be to change the champ with plasma gun to a shield and plasma pistol. Change the...

    N18 Helot cultist advice -uprising campaign

    I was still planning on 6 or 7 gangers, but after that wanted to get more disciples since they are more skilled. my concern with just having a mass of gangers would be that so many scenarios limit the number of fighters to 10 or less. I wouldn't want to only get a bunch of mooks with lasguns in...

    N18 Helot cultist advice -uprising campaign

    Hello all, Im going to be playing in an uprising campaign on the chaos side and was looking for advice on gang compostion. Choices will obviously be somewhat limited since there will be no TP access. My main question is how do people tend to outfit their demagogue? I dont want to go the...

    N18 Lets talk about Genestealer Cultists...

    Hey joak47, both gang ideas look like a lot of fun but for your gang to be legal the number of neophytes in your gang have to equal the number of abberants, acolytes and leader so your first gang would need tweaking

    N18 Starting Goliath: forgeworld?

    I would just get the kroc from FW and just buy some space marine bits for bolters and/or heavy bolters and chain weapons etc. Probably get you more of what you need since as you said the goliath sprue has lots of cc weapons

    N18 Mixed loadout cc/ranged worth it?

    Hello all, I've been building up some goliath models and it got me thinking about what loadouts would be the most effective for champs and leaders. My options would be building models dedicated to either shooting or cc, or to create a more Swiss army knife champ that has weapons for both. Some...

    N18 Starn?

    The way my group ruled it was if he fires one pistol hen it's no penalty, two pistols is -1 and all three would be a -2 penalty. Gunslinger brings the penalty down one stage but doesn't completely eliminate the difficulty of firing all three pistols. Hope that helps.

    N18 Starting Van Saar for new Campaign (all new players)

    Also you may want to reconsider trick shot for your rad cannon champ. Since it is a template he doesn't really benefit from it. Maybe go with something like fixer or savvy trader to increase credits and get more bodies and gear faster

    Broken or unbalanced scenarios?

    Caravan heist is also pretty bad. If things go bad for the defender they have a choice to fight on even of they are getting massacred or to voluntarily bottle giving the attacker d3 loot on any fighter not seriously injured or out of action. Each loot token for attacker is worth d6x10 so they...

    N18 Starting Van Saar

    The gun barrels on the kit can be mixed and matched between all the gun stocks. If you are willing to convert you can modify a lot of the poses with some work and green stuff. You can also make many up the alternate guns from forge world with some creativity and cutting up gun bits. Lasplas or...

    Huh, interesting. Just reread that section, I had not caught the change in dominion for that until now. Feels way better like that

    N18 Counting advancements, purposeful?

    As far as I know advancements also become more expensive to purchase the more you have.

    Close combat van saar viable?

    Hmm. Well I guess I'll just build one pure close combat guy with shield, servo harness and power hammer then. I'll use the other neat weapons I've made up for a van saar shrine(gang relic)

    Underhive cult cards

    What my group does is if you play chaos or genestealer cults you can pic any gangs cards to use as long as you stick to the one set. No mixing and matching. Our cult player used Escher.

    Close combat van saar viable?

    Ya I know van saar leaders arent great at cc but the standard ganger insnt any worse then an orlock lets say. Was thinking of having a strong cc group of gangers supported by good shooting from champs and leader
