Re: When do you guys want the next MRT?

I think we should have like, one (maybe 2?) more MRTs (or tournaments in general) - kinda as a send-off for DOW2 as DoW3 supplants it.

As such... maybe near the end of march/early April?

Re: Gk inquis ST

Just wanted to say, in my experience, GK Strike Squads are actually pretty weak. Sure they are good 1v1 vs a slugga, Guardian, heretic, etc. But as soon as they face a dedicated ranged/melee force (i.e. 3 GU), they are outclassed fast. Despite talk of their high dps, it's hard to translate that into...

Re: Balance units

That's not to say I players like HolyHammer (and players who like abuse) aren't good - but they are using strategies that are easier to execute with higher returns, meaning they can put whatever skill they have into other areas while units like Warboss grant effective melee immunity or WSE teleports...

Re: Balance units

Or as chaos - seeing how literally nothing chaos has can even hope to deal damage 1v1 vs a LA with feeder tendrils (2011 retail, btw), this forces the opposing player to play with combined arms to just have a chance to counter the Lictor (something like Tics + AC + Havoc + CSM). - What does this eff...

Re: Ork changes

Why build Lootas when you get big shootas that are more useful for a discount price?

Especially in ELITE, Orks have even more options for long range combat - they don't need to be tied down to shootas.

Re: Ork changes

I would agree Orks could use buffs elsewhere with a nerf on big shootas (say, cheaper slugga boyz). I disagree about the WB - angry bitz + spiky armor is an insane amount of regen. I've seen him tank a devastator for quite some time with this combo. Spiky armor makes him immune to melee while he has...

Re: Ork changes

Perhaps the details have changed, but ork T1 play (that is meta) is basically identical imo. Big shootas are still too effective - 20 power for a weapon that adds a tremendous amount of DPS and a flexible instant suppression ability. The nob leader also makes the squad REALLY DURABLE, so 3/6 members...

Re: Yet Another "Baneblade is sub-par" Thread

I built a BB vs Tex in 1v1 and it died to banshees Kappa. So I tend to agree it could use buffs. IMO, Tex himself is a bigger problem than BB. :) #nerfTex True, but any other super unit would have very little problems forcing off banshees rather quickly. But the BB can miss it's most important shot...

Re: DoW3 new footage

Not like DOWII's complexity gave it any real longevity as an RTS. In fact, I'd say it caused more problems than its worth. I'm glad they're "simplifying" things - it's not automatically a bad thing.
