[QUOTE=Nikota;33012431]I understand light AA guns being able to penetrate it (.50 caliber, etc.). But G43's? Holy shit. By that logic, pintle mounted MG42's were tank killers.[/QUOTE]
No, the turret was easily penetrated up-close by larger rifle/MG rounds, such as that fired by the Kar98 and MG34/42.
Its a scout car, not a tank. If you're getting shot at you're doing it wrong.
[QUOTE=nightlord;33008229]It needed to be like CoH with a good cover system, territory, bullets unable to damage tanks, supression etc (in DoW it's "oh we're being shot lets move slower" instead of CoH where they actually get on the ground and cover their heads etc) and all the other stuff CoH has but DoW2 doesn't.[/QUOTE]
Except in vanilla CoH rifles can kill the armored cars...

This was the Space Marine Captain I was going to use for my battle tommorow. Paint is missing in some places, I plan to brush it up in an hour or two.

This is my first attempt at painting a Leman Russ, its not finished, but I hope to get it done soon. Can I get any feedback?[/QUOTE]
Space Marine Captain looks decent, could use a little better detail or such on the ropes on his breastplate, may i ask what color you used on his helmet, though?
However, the Leman Russ looks quite good, actually, but i suggest you remove the paint at the end of the cannon and instead give it some burn marks.
Just had an awesome Last Stand match me as Ork with choppa and a chaos scorer and a far seer are at wave 16 and are trying to kill my ork doppelganger for like an half hour then we got the real ork dead but the clone was still alive and couldn't be killed since of the 30 sec demon shield it has, we then gave up and got ourselves killed.
If anyone wants to play Exterminatus with me add me :3 So far I'm having a lot of fun as a Devastator.
[QUOTE=Teh Zip File;33012805]Except in vanilla CoH rifles can kill the armored cars...[/QUOTE]
The M8 had only 3mm, which is possible to penetrate with 7,62. =) < Actually I was wrong, it had much thicker armour, I'm not sure if the steel was as high quality as the german steel though ; Germans had notoriously better quality materials to build their stuff though, but the thicker armour of the M8 should still be able to withstand some fire from the karbin98 and mg42 though!
The german armoured car (sdkfz something) had around 10mm though, but afaik only the BAR (and machine gun) was able to hurt it.

And add more washes (to both units), washes are the easiest way to get something look better.
And yeah, Leman Russ needs to look more like its seen combat.

And who could forget the Reclamation of Kathur? :v:
I finally got up and bought Space Marine today.
It is one of the best games I've bought lately, and I've been having massive fun committing ork xenocide.
Also, I really like chainsword, especially in Exterminatus. I just seem to be able to stay alive a lot more with faster attacks.
New Necrons are up on GW site.
Immortals/deathmarks look badass as fuck.
So I guess tho official fluff change is that necrons rebelled against the ctan after defeating the old ones
NECRONS ARE PEOPLE TOO what is this bullshit. They're supposed to be an unstoppable slow moving horde of mindless machines (for the most part) controlled by demigods, not just controlling themselves. C'tan were cool GW is retarded

Techmarine with highest armor you can get, and a plasma gun.
3-4 tactical squads with plasma guns and sergeants
You will rape. Probably. It works for me .

Standard from what I remember
- tacmarines are bad bad bad.
- Survive t1 with shotty scouts and as much power as you can, and do the best to conserve those shotty scouts. Your hero is your main DPS dealer.
- If survival is hard get a devastator
- alternatively, you can get 2 squads of marines, one with a flamer the other without anything - but protect those squads, do not loose a single marine if possible.
- t2 is your moment to shine. An early rhino will give you speed and reaction and maneuvre time.
- plasma devs are another must have
- if you went the two marine route, get a missile launcher on the second squad ASAP
- if you're running a techie, the plasma gun works wonders - know when to overload it and when not - small hp sqauds like guardians and guardsmen - no. Marines, heroes etc - yes. Also try to fight from cover when you can, to avoid the I must run to cover behaviour. You don't want to loose a single shot.
- don't let guardians grenade spike your marines or any squads really.
Overall as marine, ever since they nerfed the apothecary dance, you have gone into a very stationary force. But this force is really overpowering if you know how to position it.

Stormlord was a failure of a Lord on Medusa Campaign. Phaeron is a remake of pharaoh.
Well, that sucks.
Woke up at 9:20 thinking the game was a 11-12 but It was actually at 10-11, and I didn't realize until quarter to 10. The store is half an hours drive away so Ive had to phone in and cancel it.
Ill have to wait for tommorow's game now.

Doesn't seem as bad as I first thought. At least the hundreds of billions of Warriors will still be mindless drones.
And the mental image of a hooded 4 meters tall Necron lord instantly reminded me of Death himself.

OK I'm stealing this theory from /tg/ but could this be one of the missing primarchs? It's from Trazyns GW page on what relics he has.
