Debauchery101 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 What shields did you use there? Id have preferred a Wyatt Family esque lamp to an hourglass @Blackwood shield full of skulls not Wulfen enough? I think its just the shape that doesn't do it fer me , I am normally fine with having the models I run for my Dreadwolves keep a lot of the crusade iconography , you know helps with that one level of separation , though I prefer the shields to be more wolf specific ya know ? well thats you. I am a form over function person. Plus its the biggest shield available. I like the modernized design like the lights and view port. It's also has tons of room to hang and stake trophies to. I definitely don't want wolf color ultramarines but I like the Primaris to show off the new hot gear. The Iron Priests ain't doing custom jobs for these dudes yet but they got all top forgeworld stuff Hey can I ask how did the palanite enforcer hands compare to the primaris fists? I like the look of your shields and I plan to steal the idea of using the palanite shield. A nifty paintjob and some markings will make them a bit more like they suit The Rout. the hands are too small. But the shield doesn't require a hand. It has a bit that fits into or onto a forearm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theprophetofwar Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 (edited) As for table play, our group already just downsized the table space for smaller games. A more standardized amount would be a good thing I wager, and something plenty already do. Your 6x4 table mat wouldn't be obsolete, you just wouldn't always need the whole thing. No trouble there I can see. Now if things were actually scaled up I'd get the issue. But as they are moving (in general) towards fewer, and larger, models I don't see the table space changing much.

Skywrath Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 (edited) I'm curious if the Grey Knights will forever be excluded from primaris. Will they ever get a truesize mini makeover? We'll get them eventually. Still up for grabs whether the new primaris is for CSM or for all space marines (as they claim), but so far the general consensus is no for us. If we don't get them, then I'll just return to playing my original faction, the Dark Angels.. *expects to be mauled by Space Wolves after mentioning Dark Angels* ;p Edited May 30, 2020 by Skywrath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Listening now. Lol in some ways it sounds a lot like 9th is gonna be a throwback (in some ways) to 5th. Bring on the rhino rush!! This makes me much more interested and excited for 9th and to see where it goes, particularly since I loved 5th and loved my 5th ed Wolves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Guard Dan Posted May 30, 2020 Share Posted May 30, 2020 I’ve heard that firstborn marines players will be happy with something coming. Anyone got a transcript of the podcast?

Dark Shepherd Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 (edited) Watching it now. They are REALLY emphasising how dead soup is and how its all going to be mono-codex. Detachments are paid for, troops arent going anywhere esp if you ran a single battallion/brigade, maybe slightly less troops in competition lists Theyre stressing lists will change especially depending on if you took more than one battallion/brigade Theyve rolled back the soup thing to you can still soup and chaos/eldar not nerfed, just loyal32 etc are a waste of time PA books all written with 9th in mind Edited May 31, 2020 by Dark Shepherd Roland Durendal and Wolf Guard Dan 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doghouse Posted May 31, 2020 Share Posted May 31, 2020 It's army building itself I am most interested in. I'm hoping they do something so the likes of Space Wolves and Dark Angels can access the new toys straight away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Shepherd Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Nervous times as we await point increases :) With 12 CP the starting point for a 2k game then Bjorn looks extra appealing as does limiting lists to one detachment Roland Durendal 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Triszin Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 So all units are points adjusted again. Looks like points increase all around which I'm fine with. Party of the thing slowing down some games are sheer model count. Which I think can be partially solved by movement trays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolf Guard Dan Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 If tactical marine equivalents get two wounds but not the extra attack or special bolters are we gonna be happy or mad? Points being less than an Intercessor of course. And what if tactical equivalents get that and maybe Intercessors get 3 wounds? Does that change how happy we are? Idk the likelihood of this one seems like more of a stretch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk the likelihood of this one seems like more of a stretch. Intercessors with 3 wounds would be mad! at 20pts per model you could have a 30 wound unit for 200pts! Plus it would mean that all other primaris would be bumped up a wound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gherrick Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 With the goal of lowering the overall body counts, I wonder how well GW will balance horde vs elite armies. I worry aggressors are gonna get so upped in price as to make them nigh unusable. I hope our cavalry will actually get a points decrease...although they need a new datasheet with good rules...like free outflank and preventing/mitigating withdrawals.

Wolf Guard Dan Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Ya silver shire. I’d expect we don’t get 3 wound Intercessors right away if we ever get them. Maybe something they look at when the codexes drop. Keep in mind the intercessor gun prob isn’t in the cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Party of the thing slowing down some games are sheer model count. Which I think can be partially solved by movement trays I dont like movement trays but I think if they did movement like Legion where you measure for the unit leader then place the remaining models from the unit "in coherence" with the leader it would really speed things up. Also much easier and less fiddly. Fire away. Valerian and Kassill 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
