Brofist Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 It's basically a colloquialism that describes "that one guy" from your gaming group. You know. That one guy you don't want to be.

Prodigal Son of Magnus Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 Would someone mind explaining to me what is WAAC?It's a term ranging from a total jerk who cheats and lies to win games to a tournament player who likes to play the game competitively.

Kilofix Posted November 16, 2014 Share Posted November 16, 2014 Also depends on what kind of game is being played. With Zone Mortalis, Death Guard (in addition to the usual IF, etc.) are pretty good with immunity to Fear / Pinning, Rad Grenades, Chem Munitions, Power Scythes, Move Through Cover, Heavy Support as Troops, Grave Wardens, an HQ that gives Relentless and a Primarch that 'teleports'.

DuskRaider Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Death Guard flame weapons also get a +1 STR along with Shred in Zone Mortalis.

Slips Posted November 17, 2014 Share Posted November 17, 2014 Edit: Nvm, I didn't get the context. On Topic: You could effectively breakdown legions into categories of competitiveness depending on the Game Mode being played / what you're trying to achieve with a given army. For ZM specifically, I'd say, RG and AL are up there due to scout/infiltrate as are the NL though the NL might encounter more difficulty in this environment since they fall back an extra 1" which could mean (especially in ZM) the difference between running off the board or not. Then you have the IF and IH due to the ZM specialization(besides sieges, its kinda their thing :p) of the Former and general resilience of the Latter. Also, NL, IF, SoH(with Abby) and IH (With Perty) can deepstrike Terminators so thats a bonus. EC can also perform well here since their CC focus isn't as hampered due to the decreased likelihood of getting shot/blown off the table before even getting there. Salamanders would also be a good choice 'cuz Flamers.
