If you focus on one "heresy" and scroll up and down really fast, it looks like the picture is moving but the word is sitting still.
Here's a collection of Warhammer related images (it's still growing) that you all can use: [url]http://imgur.com/a/9dckj#0[/url]
I just wanted to share it with you guys.
Hey guys, I need to know, what exactly do Old One Tech, Architecture, and artifacts look like? Like their over arching style?
Ciaphas Caine gives precious few details about what the shadowlight looks like and I'd like to know so I can draw it by filling in the blanks.
i'm starting to get better at mp using ig.
Holy shit chaos heretics suck. All they're good for is healing/repairing friendly units and giving them a buff

We have no idea, we don't even know if it was the Old Ones behind the shadowlight (reasonable guess though), Old ones aren't really mentioned in 40K
Well, this isn't too bad. All it needs it some bit music.

It really is the only logical explanation.

[b]Infantry Squad[/b]
-2grenade launchers

[b]Leman Russ Demolisher[/b]
-Demolisher Cannon
-Sponson weapons:

[b]Command Squad[/b]

You can't take infantry squads. You gotta take platoons. I'd use veterans instead.

How does the second best starting squad suck? The lock down orks, banshees, you really don't want to fly with assaults into them, if they get into a marine squad they can rip it to shred by going boom boom boom.
Tear nids a new one. And have one of the best weapon upgrades in the game.

I think that's due to them having issues with normal socialising. Most people like to keep a distance, so a healthy love life might be problematic at times. A wonder pariah genes still propagate actually.
[QUOTE=wraithcat;33078025]There's more balancing issues to that than are apparent at first. Small powerful units are actually more susceptible to AOE attacks if the AOE is strong enough.
While the AOE might not hit every member of the large mob squad, it will usually hit everyone in the small power squad thus dealing more effective damage.
And again Epic is relid with AOE.
It actually makes sense from a fluff perspective I guess. As marines are urban warfare specialist more than anything are are very likely to get cut down in the open.
It's just a bitch to actually balance.
The small squad sizes are overall already a bitch to balance out in DOW2 as they are pretty heavily smaller. So all damage done to the squad is far more concentrated into specific unit and direct high DPS abilities make a space marine squad highly ineffective very quickly.[/QUOTE]
Small sized squads can maintain their original DPS for longer than bigger squads, no? Because bigger squads will lose their models faster which results in lower DPS over time.
You would have thought blanks are more celebrated as hero's as they can counter chaos warpcraft AND disrupt tyranid hive mind activity.
[QUOTE=thisguy123;33086389]You would have thought blanks are more celebrated as hero's as they can counter chaos warpcraft AND disrupt tyranid hive mind activity.[/QUOTE]
It's simply because they are repulsive to anyone without the Pariah-gene.

Hmm... If I use Veterans, which are elites, in a Platoon does it still work out? If so then I'll just do that. I don't have my old IG codex from when I first discovered 40k so I sorta forgot about Platoons. I should really pick one up again.
And any suggestions regarding the Leman Russ Demolisher? I have no clue which weapons to use for the sponsons.

Vets are troops and a platoon is a Platoon command squad and at least 2 infantry squads. Also Las cannon and plasma cannon sponsons cant go wrong, but magnetize it so you can change it to what ever you need.

Veterans are regular Troop choices? Welp I guess I read wrong.

20 strength 5 shots? you could wipe out 3/4 of an Ork mob in a single turn.
Oh good lord every single weapon in the Leman Russ armoury is overpowered.

Its really not all that amazing to be honest, at least for me it has not done all that well.

Indeed it can. It is however, AP - so everything will get an armour save.

Not that good tbh

Then you've got this:

So every turn you can fire a large blast strength 10 ap 1/2 shot that scatters. Basically, you can wipe out any normal squad in a single shot on a regular basis.
I really am amazed reading the 5th ed IG codex.

If you put it near a guardsman squad on an objective you could deter melee troops from going near them for the entire match.
