Damon Nightman Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 So did Jump Pack Company Vets get cheaper via Wargear. They are 19 ppm in the Index. SO what are they now? 17ppm? I'm curious about this too. I think they still might be 19 ppm because they are their own entry in the index?

Dont-Be-Haten Posted December 11, 2018 Author Share Posted December 11, 2018 Its looking more and more like the only way to take the land speeder is with double heavy flamer. Although the Multi-Melta going down in points does seem like a valid option. I love that model and I wish I could make them work better. I *really* wish we could take a talon master style speeder for BA. Oh that thing is awesome!Any way, @Jole We may have to revisit all of the units of the week at some point!

Zuri Prime Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 I dunno about you folks but SG just got more attractive. Power fist and inferno pistol price cuts, as well as the Sanguinary Ancient point reduction. Time to rise and shine, boys.

Perhaps they'll address the Encarmine weapons as they're horribly overcosted for what they offer, but likely not. I have a box on hand so PF/IP it is!

9x19 Parabellum Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 It's really too bad, because Sanguinary Guard just don't look right to me without massive bladed power weapons. :-( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351318-ba-and-ca-20/page/8/#findComment-5212464 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverson Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 There is a decent chance they will bring out an faq for chapter approved in a few weeks, asking them questions about things like encarmine weapons may result in it being fixed.

Panzer Posted December 11, 2018 Share Posted December 11, 2018 Any way, @Jole We may have to revisit all of the units of the week at some point! That shouldn't be necessary. The focus off these threads was always on how to use unit X, not whether unit X is efficient.

If you have something new to add, just bump the topics :) Well really that was my point. Something I did think about was asking if you could maybe put up a sticky with links to all the past UotW threads for easier access. Unless that's already been done and I'm just being mental and over looked it.

Jolemai Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Having been over a month or so, what would we say are the big winners for us in CA18? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351318-ba-and-ca-20/page/8/#findComment-5235340 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Having been over a month or so, what would we say are the big winners for us in CA18? Definitely the Vanguard Veterans imo. But that goes for all Marines. Second place goes to Redemptor Dreads and Repulsors I'd say.

But that goes for all Marines. Second place goes to Redemptor Dreads and Repulsors I'd say. Honourable mention goes to Lemartes. He was solid at 129 points and is a steal at 100 (assuming you are running DC of course).

lash144 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I actually think you don't even need DC to justify him. He has a guaranteed 6a on the charge and is overall a pretty beatstick foe his point costs.

Karhedron Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Having been over a month or so, what would we say are the big winners for us in CA18? Having had a bit more time to digest this, I would actually say that the big winners for us in CA18 are..... Blood Angels! I all seriousness I think Blood Angels do very well when playing the new CA18 missions and the main reason for this is Objective control. Most of the CA18 missions use continuous scoring which means the ability to get units into objectives is valuable. Whilst our own Troop units are no faster than anyone else's, we do typically have plenty of fast units to drive the enemy off their objectives. This brings me to the second advantage this gives us. Going for objective control means your opponent will often have to spread his forces out more. This creates openings our units can exploit. A good example of this was in a recent match against Death Guard (often a particularly nasty matchup for us). Because of the continuous scoring, my opponent couldn't use his Pox Walkers to screen effectively as he had to divert them to seize objectives or I would have run away with VPs. Without a screen, my Sanguinary Guard were able charge the festering heart of the Death Guard army on Turn 2 without any hindrance. It was a brutal fight as my opponent diverted all his characters and daemon engines into trying to hold the line. In the end only 2 SG survived but they (and their various buffing characters) tore through everything the Death Guard had. How have other people been finding the CA18 missions? My LGS now plays these almost exclusively and I find BAs have the tools to do very well at them.
