A (probably) Controversial Suggestion

Does anyone else feel as if the increased melee damage on retreat could be lowered somewhat? - given how it punishes both lag spikes and the infamous "units not retreating when we tell them to" glitch? Also, it seems as if Melee Resistance Aura doesn't do anything to mitigate damage on ret...

That being said, could the Daemon Prince be like the Chaos Lord/Sorcerer equivalent of the T3 Terminator Force Commander?

Re: More Heroes and Wargear

Personally, I'd love for the Chaos Sorcerer to get the Let the Galaxy Burn! ability through a piece of wargear (like an accessory in the campaign)

I know this will never happen though and I've accepted it

Re: CSM Champion with marks ( CSM for last time I guess )

Having played Chaos a lot, I must say the aspiring champion is great. Without him the squad feels so much weaker, however I have some complaints and caveats with him. He fucking dies a lot. Especially against grey knights, as they don't scatter their fire, so they just target the AC, meaning I have...

Re: NECRON OVERLORD

Necron Lord is hilariously OP, and very fun to play.

Beat the entirety of Anvil of Khorne without dying once at level 5 or so.

Conversely, I can't get past my clone on the Bloodied Colosseum, lol

Re: 2.5 Ordo Malleus Tactics

Hammer is good if you need the knockback against fast, light infantry, like Banshees or Bloodletters, and since the weapon is classified as normal melee, the damage will be good against them. Against heavy and super-heavy infantry, the halberd will be more useful as it does power melee damage. EDIT:...

Re: Unit upgrade timing - Is there are upgrades that are must get?

If your heretics are going into melee, Aspiring Champion is a must. If you're going to give them grenade launchers (a must vs sniper units and setup squads), then you don't need the AC, though I recommend getting an AC on at least 1 heretic squad either way for the detection if you know you'll be fi...

Re: GM sandbags instead of 'tank traps'

In my infinite boredom, and remembering this thread, I decided to try an idea I had for a while for guardsmen and their cover to see if I could get all 12 models in proper cover, rather than the usual 4 or 5 that get into cover with a simple line or natural cover.

So I decided to make this for fun. Many of the abilities and units here borrow heavily from pre-existing units and abilities. I know there’s a a lot of flamers and meltas here, but that’s pretty much the point of the Sororitas, isn’t it? All input is welcome, enjoy! The Adepta Sororitas wear heavy a...

Re: TCSM, KCSM overall balance, costs and changes

Even dedicated front-line units like MoK CSMs will go down to enough focused fire from anything, so if you're having trouble with MoK against light infantry, I would suggest coordinating their charge with something like a Raptor jump (that sweet suppression), a Doombolt volley, or something of the s...

Re: What hero to main?

I would recommend Sorcerer. His abilities are all about control over the map and locking down the enemy. Warp Sigil turns any unit into a jump unit, and can ruin enemy ambushes and setup teams. The Warp armor and Warp global allow for even further map control, with the latter also allowing for retre...

I actually like Avensa; it's a fairly straightforward map design.

I also enjoy playing on Armageddon with either the TM or PC because abusing turrets with all the chokepoints on the map is trolltastic.
