Sooooo... War convocation and a void shield?

I may, just for fun, squish Karamozov into the list just for the brutality of his non scattering orbital bombardment

Oh, and 20 conscripts- but I prob won't start off with them cause it's just a billions dudes to paint

I wrote a list- Hq Yarick Lord commisar Troops Fighty blob, Melta bombs, axes, flamers, krak grenades 2 priests 3 mk 2 primaris psychers Shooty blob Grenade launchers, missile launchers, auto cannons, lascannons Platoon commanders and each blob have a vox cause I consistently roll horribly *shakes fist at dice gods* Heavy support 1 manticore with camo net 2 wyvern with camo net 2 THUDD guns with camo net Fort Aegis defence line

So one blob specced light- with krak grenades, power axes, melta bombs, psychers and preists. One blob with lots of heavy weapons, special weapons and thats it- no heavy weapons squads As many concscripts as I can rustle together and artillery and heavy support in the back field. Basically a gun line and a running blob.

I'm excited to see these arrive for some of the other armies

I'm in

So basically I'm just wasting my time painting all these guys and I should just run one blob, or a minimum amount of troops?

I kinda want the junior command companies and the heavy weapons to hang out in the defence line- while yarick and the blobs roam/charge/die I could drop the commissar for the conscripts and just give them a priest for the zealot rule- then I could trim a little here and there to put Creed and a CCS back there. I know I know... I just wanna use him for some turd reason. I painted him so well... I also could bring a void shield generator instead of the aegis- I have the actual model for it

Who the hell is throwing 100+ s6 shots a turn other than eldar?!?

The conscripts are supposed to have a commissar too - putting my points at 1947

I'd like to get my hands on some of the books for it

That sucks, I figured 3 orders and two warlord traits would be pretty useful.

Oh, and depending on points Cotaez might jump in, too

The list I'm generally working towards is sort of a 'buff the blobs list' Hq -yarrick Hq - ccs with Creed and an Astropath Troops 1 - 50 man infantry platoon mostly minimal but with 2 separate heavy weapons teams, probably auto cannons or rockets, special weapons and krak, meltas on srgts Troops 2 - same as above Misc 2 ministorum priests - singing songs and being awesome Misc 3 mk2 primarus psychers Elites 5 wyrdvanes- yeah they are kinda dumb, but I have a ton of psycher ,models Heavy support 2 quad guns in a unit Wyvern and or manticore depending on points The plan basically involves surging the blobs around the map while spamming divination on them and screaming orders from CREED. I'm thinking 'forboding' along with the priests war hymns will significantly increase their survival. Cannons in the back to ruin days. I have no clue if it's viable, but it seems like a plan, at least

Hot

I'd guess it gives a -1 to the d chart roll? So a roll of 1 or 2 do nothing and a six counts as a 5

Exactly

Don't you already have MASSIVE amounts of space marines? I was kinda excited to see if GW was going to give us Plebs access to HH - it seems they are instead giving us an expensive board game with a ton of space marines and the like. I was excited for the previous assassin game- until I actually saw it.

This doesn't do a thing for me at all

last minute things came up.

I'll be there

If you haven't tried a can of Krylon Camo paint as a primer- give it a shot. It goes on super thin, sticks really well, and costs 5 bucks from just about any random hardware or even Fred Meyers. That is all.

It's about the Russians who live out in the taiga and trap sable. It's really a pretty good movie.
