Jackalwolf Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Yes it's a fair point that he's under costed but still I don't really mind too much. Play against the right opponent and it will never be an issue. Most legions can do some really jerk combos.

AceofAllTradez Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 My group has house ruled invis to d&d invis, so it goes away if you move shoot or charge. Thought that was cool since it makes the game fair, so to speak, on both sides.

Cadmus Tyro Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Just a random thought, what if, when playing Magnus, your opponent was given a squad of sisters for free. Perhaps house rule some cost limitation to the unit. Make it a non FoC entry. It would give both loyalist and traitors an anti-Psyker tool that you wouldn't have to anticipate including in your list. Any thoughts? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330717-is-magnus-the-red-horribly-broken/page/4/#findComment-4666349 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any thoughts? Eh. Nah. It would be a bit weird, very unfluffy a lot of the time. And Sisters are rather hit or miss anyway imo. They either completely shut him down or get bolter'd to death.

Perhaps house rule some cost limitation to the unit. Make it a non FoC entry. It would give both loyalist and traitors an anti-Psyker tool that you wouldn't have to anticipate including in your list. Any thoughts? Eh. Nah. It would be about weird, very unfluffy a lot of the time. And Sisters are rather hit or miss anyway imo. They either completely shut him down or get bolter'd to death. I'd agree here also realistically 10 sisters just die like horribly, and I honestly wouldn't want to take them. I'd much rather see magnus just get the 100+ points hike as thats far better balancing then the sisters.

Any thoughts? Even better - the moment Magnus enters play deepstrike a free Russ within 12" no scatter. The moment he gets into combat with Maggie remove both from play as Russ explodes from his murderboner. Balanced :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/330717-is-magnus-the-red-horribly-broken/page/4/#findComment-4666806 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slips Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 Or we close the topic since apparently it has run its course. Have a chat with an opponent with regards to Magnus if he's being used in a friendly game you're playing in.
