Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Well, yeah. But your opponent will also blow those up as rapidly as possible for that reason. But I approve of Demolishers with multimeltas; they do work when they can be gotten into position.
As for primaris psykers, no, they don't have psychic hoods; psykers absolutely ruin my day because Guard has no psyker defense. As I said, I've never played one, but I've had this urge to stick one in a big squad of Ogryns and use Nightshroud to make the enemy not shoot them while they trudge across the field and then have a force weapon inside the assaulty mob when they get there, but as I have neither a psyker nor Ogryns, that experiment will have to wait."Courage is the complement of fear.

I thought vehicles couldn't fire any other weapons if they used an Ordnance weapon? Why bother giving the Russes sponsons?

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
It's a shame that Tomb Spiders are also a Heavy slot - although you have a lot of Troops for a Necron army, it's still a frighteningly small number of models!
Still, my own recommendation would be a big unit of Pariahs. While you have a lot of competent MEQs with good guns, you're fairly vulnerable to assault and a dozen-or-so more Warscythes would fix that.
In the same vein, you have no 'bomb' unit - I always find it good to have one powerful, deadly unit that can troubleshoot whatever my opponent surprises me with, regardless of what it is.
Terminators or Wraithguard? s5 power weapons say 'No'. Triple Rune Priests or Grey Knights? Start running, boys. Land Raider Spam? As if Gauss weapons weren't enough you now have 12 "Monstrous Creatures" chasing them down.~ CAUTION: May Contain Weasels ~

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Destroyers are fast attack units aren't they? It's the heavy destroyers that are Heavy Support. That's why I sugested monoliths.
Meh, pariahs don't look very hot to me. They don't have WBB , and altough they ignore invulnerable saves, they have none of their own. With just one attack and 3 I, they'll also be striking last against most other elite units, and then they aren't geting much attacks out.Last edited by deuterio12; 2011-07-29 at 06:57 AM.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Pariah have quite the interesting history - for a long time, they were decreed to be one of the worst units in all of WH40k, due to being costly, not being Necrons, and having low Initiative on a primarily melee unit.
Then people started to realize that they are the perfect counter to a huge part of the current metagame. For starters, they eat Hammernators for breakfast. Anything that counters Hammernators hard is automatically worth it.
They require a fair bit of finesse to use, though. For starters, while they are super-durable with their T5, they still need to be deployed with caution, so they actually survive in sufficient number to do their job when the enemy elites they need to counter roll around.LGBTitP Supporter

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Winterwind just said most of what I was going to, Pariahs can be useful, but you've got to be skillfull or plain lucky to get any use out of them. As nasty as Warscythes are they're no good if the opponent can just stay away from them, which is quite easily done against infantry with no transport options.
As for Squark's list, its about as solid as Necrons get. For the last 550 points you could look at some Tomb Spiders to accompany the Destroyer units, Immortals, or some Heavy Destroyers for anti-tank. I know Gauss can shake stuff, but you need things that can wreck vehicles semi-reliably as well. I'd avoid Monoliths, they have the damage output of a wet flannel and again can be ignored in favouring of killing enough Warriors to phase out.
The second Lord could do with a Phase Shifter too, if points allow.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Don't hammernators usually mix some lighting claw terminators to help slice trough infantry?
Well against a squad of just hammernators pariahs could be quite good yes, but then it depends heavily on your metagame. Against horde armies or even stuff like blood angel's assault squad spam, I don't really seem them doing much.
Heavy destroyers on the other hand are an excellent offensive choice, and the necron's only reliable way of blowing up vehicles at range.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
You're correct, I seem to have misread 'Necron' as 'Heavy' for some reason
In which case, I renew my vote for Spyders. When everyone else in the game loses their last wound, they go down and they stay there (apart from Justicar Thawn, of course). One of Necrons' biggest assets is that they get back up again, and you should encourage/exploit that to it's fullest.
If you can also take some Pariahs, then at least consider taking them. Even though they have their drawbacks, the simple fact is that that they're carrying s5 Power Weapons in a game that his heavily populated by T4 3+ opponents - A lot of whom are now psychic to boot. Some Codices don't get the option to have any of those things, let alone all three in one place!~ CAUTION: May Contain Weasels ~

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
So yesterday I played my first game in... quite a while.
It was supposed to be 2500 points, but by the time I had all of the models I could legally take I was only as 2295 (could have had 2450 if I could take a 3rd HQ) and I had all of my FO slots filled but one Elite (not having the models for it).
The thing was that most of my units couldn't have been increased much. Everything but the guardians, jetbikes, vypers and war walkers were at the max unit size. I guess 2500 points wasn't really planed for people to not take a few really expensive units like (for eldar) a seer council on bikes and/or wraithguard. I'm just glad we didn't roll up annihilation because I had 18 kill points on the table.
I was playing against codex marines, pitched battle and capture and control. At deployment I thought I had it pretty much won. He was mostly piled into one corner but only had 15 marines on his base, and he only had 4 units in transports to try and get to my base but they weren't set up to get there quickly (one having to cross the entire board, 2 having to cross 2/3s of it and only one with a direct shot). And being rhinos and razorbacks I didn't think they would live long enough to get that far.
It didn't help that I stole the initiative. Having a fortuned wave serpent with the flat out save and full of banshees sitting beside the building his base was in on the first turn was not a good start for him. I was also able to move almost my entire army up far enough the first turn that he couldn't move many of his tanks without giving me side and rear armor shots.
He sort of just turtled up after that, with only one rhino moving forward much. I didn't manage to open up any transports.
Second turn the banshees get out (and since the transport didn't move yet that turn) jump into the building and tear up some marines. I fail again to do much to the vehicles with a lot of poor rolling. And I forget about the fact that his marines can actually get out of their transports, so I don't move my jetbikes back.
Not realizing one unit of marines wasn't actually marines but the guys in artificer armor and all wielding power weapons I find that my scorpions are in a bad position. They at least tie them up for a full turn and get them out of their transport.
He drops a unit of assault marines with a librarian right by his base to help protect it, and his librarian takes out more then half of my warp spiders.
3rd turn I lay waste to the assault marines, whittle down a few other units, and finish clearing off his base with my banshees.
I'll shorten up the end, the banshees continue their reign of terror, taking part in killing at least some of 4 different units of marines, a rhino and a demolisher (well the farseer did those, but the banshees were with him). My guardians finish walking across the board to his base (he gave them no priority until it was pretty much too late). His guys in artificer armor get close to my base, but being in cover even if the game had gone 6-7 rounds (we ended at 5 because it was way too late) they would have had a hard time reaching my base in time and he had no way of even contesting his own. Its questionable as to whether or not they would have lived through another 2 rounds of shooting as well. We both had a few units left, but most of his where transports.
I'm out of practice for sure, there are a lot of things I could have done better in movement. Once again my opponent doesn't try for the objectives early enough to make a difference. And of course being a very mobile army makes my general opponents play entirely too defensively and let me dictate the game.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Guessing? I thought it had been confirmed.
This Autumn GW are going to release plastic Sisters of Battle models along with a "3.5" codex update (rather than an entirely new book), followed by Necrons next spring and then a proper SoB book next summer.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
A few questions.
For starters, I run a Nids list and haven't acquired a fairly large army (2 Carnifi, a trygon, and hive tyrant are the only MC's I have) however I do plan on getting alot more units during December. One thing I plan on getting (although I might get it after) is the Tyranid Hierophant bio titan. I've heard several people claim "OMG, MOST WORTHLESS UNIT EVER!!!111!!!" and others say the complete opposite. I haven't played much apocolypse and I've only played about 10 games but I still want to atleast try apocolypse. So, I'd like to know the Giantitp communities opinion on the Hierophant.
And secondly, since GW doesn't sell them I'm going to Forgeworld for my army after the tyranids. I'll be playing the Death Korps of Krieg (!!!) and wanted to know how they are balance/play style wise.“I’m a Terrorist not an idiot.” - Me

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
And that's why Leman Russes Battle and Demolisher Tanks are the second and third best non-Transport vehicles in the game. The best being a non-Blood Angel Predator because they're dirt cheap and don't have slot-competition.
First, I have to question having a small army, yet still getting a Bio Titan. You could probably get multiple Trygons for about the same price, and the Formation for doing so isn't half bad.
after the tyranids. I'll be playing the Death Korps of Krieg (!!!) and wanted to know how they are balance/play style wise.
Anyway, it's Imperial Armour; It's all broken. If you're playing a non-IA army you'll generally wipe the floor. If you're playing another IA army, it'll be sort of fair, depending on whether or not either of you are actually trying to break Imperial Armour.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Wait, what?! What, exactly, is this based on? True, there are some broken Forge World stuff. Can you, with a straight face, say that GW hasn't done the same (or much worse, for that matter)?
Secondly, the DK "normal" army list is available to download from Forge worlds site ( http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/News/Downloads.html ).
Thirdly, standard DK is basically infantry guard, with somewhat more expensive infantry (woopie, WS4 guardsmen...), but cheap-ish artillery, and you can combine squad with infantry squads AND heavy weapon squads.GENERATION 15: The first time you see this, copy it into your sig and add 1 to the generation. social experiment.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
I have to question that, actually. Admittedly, the only IA army list I've studied in detail is the Elysian drop troops one, but it didn't strike me as all that powerful. Wooo, deep striking everything. Except it's all still Guardsmen, and they don't have tanks. Or Astropaths.

That deepstriking thing actually sounds rather scary against a tyranid player. Deep strike right ontop of Synapse creatures, pound them with weapons, and then just watch as the other creatures spasm around and panick.

By Tyranids? The hive mind doesn't operate that way; it wants the fleshy bits intact and doesn't care how many drones it loses. Besides, there are all sorts of reasons why it wouldn't be, starting with the fact that most Guard deployments are offensives against rebellious worlds that don't have spaceborne assets at all.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Good point, considering all the heavy weapons they have at there disposal.
Anyway, do nemesis force weapons cause instant death? I was playing against a GK player yesterday and my swarmlord charged into his terminators with force weapons and banner. I asked him if they had anything special about them and he replied that they were power weapons so I charged him forward willy nilly. Upon recieving 2 wounds he says "Oh wait, I forgot, they're force weapons that cause instant death" and proceeds to knock my swarm tyrant over. I stare at him with my jaw open and tell him "Wait, that can't be right. And even if it was I wouldn've run my swarmlord as far away from them and just have my hormagaunts gang up on them if it did." someone then said "Don't you have to take a psyker test to activate them?" until the GK player said "The banner auto passes the test". He decided that since he didn't inform me that it would stay as a power weapon instead of insta death weapon. The experience was kind of annoying but I atleast proceeded to instantly kill the entire squad when I hit back on the second round of combat so I was a little happy about it. Still, how much of that was true and how much was the GK player just not knowing what he was doing?(He didn't seem to know his army very well due to always having to go look through the book).“I’m a Terrorist not an idiot.” - Me

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
I'm going to have to join the chorus of "Really, this is definitely not true at all." Yes, there's some IA stuff that is beyond broken, like the Hades Breaching Drill and, to a lesser extent, Tarantula turrets and Earthshaker and Medusa Emplacements, plus a handful of things for other armies I'm not thinking of right now, but the majority of IA stuff really isn't all that impressive. Death Korps in particular really aren't broken at all unless you do nothing but spam Thud Guns, Breaching Drills and Earthshaker Emplacements; overall, at best they're about as good as the regular Guard codex right now, and a lot of their stuff is actually quite a bit worse than what you'd find in regular Guard.
On the more firsthand side, I'm going to a Doubles tourney pretty soon, 1250 points per player. The original plan was to team up my Tau with a friend's Necrons, primarily so we could name ourselves the Alliance of Bottom-tier Armies, but the TO ruled that when a Necron army phases out their team automatically loses to a Massacre result, no matter how many of the other player's units remain, so nobody sane will bring 'Crons.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
The GK player was entirely correct. All GKs are armed with Nemesis Force Weapons, which do what they say on the tin. What's more, the Brotherhood Banner causes the squad bearing it to automatically pass tests to activate his force weapons.
He, of course, should have told you beforehand, but he did everything correctly once he remembered.
EDIT: By the way, you sound like an awfully poor sport there. The GK player may have not known his codex very well, but not only was he right, he tried to make up for his mistake.Last edited by Incomp; 2011-07-30 at 02:46 PM.

Re: Warhammer 40K Tabletop XIII: "Ironclads, Furiosos and Soul Grinders, oh my!"
Next time ask if you can borrow their codex to look up their army. :P
And unfortunately this kind of stuff you really need to be on-top of. Rule #1: Players suck. Corollary to Rule #1: Newbies suck :p
