intrizic Posted April 20, 2015 Report Share Posted April 20, 2015 So Eldar was one of the armies I didn't sell, looks like I can Wave Serpent Spam all I want now :D it might actually be preferable. So which is worse many little Ds? OR one big unit of D? Imp. Kahnigits can get up to 5 Ds in one list, is this the max, new normal of Ds? Looks like the Eldar are packing more D than the Imperials....just saying... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fix Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 One army I didn't sell was my wraith guard. But I have no idea what's going on with the new codex or how I should run them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huggies01 Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 "How many D's is too much? Let's ask wise old Mr. Owl" "Well let me see. One. Two. Three. *Chomp*. Three D's is Too Much" *please don't sue me tootsie pop company. I found the star are the wrapper. That's got to stand for something. But Loren, yes it would seem 3 D's is too many, As we just saw. However no D's is too few. So in the Infamous words of Rich Boy, when it comes to making an OFCC list; "Throw some D's on that #$@!%" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BradNardone Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 I've always been told its not the size of the D, but how you use it. You gotta hang back and mess with your opponent a bit, and when the time is right, get right up in there for the win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PumpkinHead Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Since there are list restrictions that we arent being told about, your guess is as good as mine. But I would think one large D is better then many small Ds. Plus if it is large enough the unit might be considered a double D. And who doesn't like double Ds? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMGraham Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Close combat D seems less egregious than shooting D. Short ranged D seems less egregious than long-range D. It also depends on the platform. A wraithknight is now a gargantuan creature, so it can split its fire at ranges up to 36". That's much nastier than a unit of wraithguard, and harder to pin down. Vauls batteries are still pretty fragile, and much less mobile than others, though they can still reach out and touch someone. All Ds Are not created equal. *shrug* We'll figure it out when we play. I'm just excited to see you interested in 40k again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huggies01 Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Man two big D's at once. Maybe but not three. I only have so many hands to properly take care of those D's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
intrizic Posted April 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Jim, I think you are spot on about the quality of the eldar codex sans the D. From the leaks, it looks like a VERY fun and effective codex. Much better than the last imo, so much flavor in all the aspects. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobbitron Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 One unit of 10x D is easier to take than 2 units of 5x D. And here is why: 5 Ds will finish off 1 of anything. Two of them will finish off 2 of anything. 10 Ds will only finish off 1 of anything. So buying 10 really just makes is so that the minimum unit size to finish off anything lasts longer. You can take 5 wounds to the massive D unit before it actually struggles to finish something off. That's a lot of points for extra wounds. It also makes it easier to tie up with an assault unit. They'll have a tough time finishing them off without their D, when all they have is their hands, and fists. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
