Wolf Lord Duregar Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 Still not knowledgable enough about the range, to be able to compare and have an opinion - not sure what I think.. But seems cool! Usually good with more models, bitz though. :) I do like the respirator head and the eviscerator. especially though. WAR 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aqui Posted May 18 Share Posted May 18 As much as it's good to finally have JPC back, I would have liked the option for her to have a bolt pistol or Inferno pistol as the alternative to the hand flamer. But, it is what it is. N1SB and Deus_Ex_Machina 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, it is what it is. It's such a strange omission. Wouldn't be a problem if the options weren't limited to the box. I love this kit. My only issue is lack of a helmeted head, but that's easy to rectify Wolf Lord Duregar 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePenitentOne Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 There's a rumour that one of the detachments is a flying focus, which could be cool. Certainly I've wanted to add a block of jump units to my army as part of the narrative, and a generic jump canoness empowers that- particularly for Crusade, because you need non-named HQ's to lead your units so that leaders can grow alongside the units they command. So minimally, without any changes of battle line, such a detachment would be 3 seraphim units and 3 zephyrim units, with 1-3 jump canonesses to lead. You could also conceivably drop in Celestine, Junith and Stern. I'll need at least one of these- possibly two. I think I'm going to get that battleforce box. My that'll give me two units of 5 seraphim and two units of 5 Zephyrim plus the Canoness. WAR 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's very little difference between a Halberd and a Poleaxe besides the physical weight of the axehead being Heavier on a Poleaxe and the back spike being replaced with a Hammer-head, so with the SoB Halberd's having a pretty decent amount of the Axehead cut-out for the Fleur-de-lis icon and a fleur-de-lis on the back working as a spike, I'd say they'd be classed as Halberds.

Archon Kharidor Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 That new Divine Guidance strat is going to be disgusting on the Arco-Flagellants. The lack of AP on their attacks is just the blunting tool needed to keep them from being too oppressive. It'll be interesting to see if they tone down their datasheet.

MoshJason Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 The detachments and rules they've shown are interesting - I am still a little salty our melee one is Penitent only - but the Assault/Flamer one looks to have nice utility, and the miracle dice one i think will be a sleeper hit.

ThePenitentOne Posted June 6 Share Posted June 6 I like these detachment rules.... But I'm disappointed that they don't really reflect old subfaction identities, and it is a real shame that there are only four. It looks like they've created a Penitent Keyword, and I wonder who is getting it. Arcos and PE's are a given; Morties and Repentia are likely and make sense; the Dogmata is a wild card, as she often oversees Penitent units.

ThePenitentOne Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 It would be interesting if you could gain the Penitent Keyword in the Crusade rules. There used to be a requisition to make a battle sisters unit take the penitent oath and become Repentia, and I'm hoping they carried it forward... But I think it would also be cool for units to be penitent without becoming a different unit. This will make it fun to run my Penitent Legion. We'll have to see what happens to points so that I can figure out the composition. I've got 3 boxes of PE's. I like Morties, so I might build 4 of them and 2 as PEs. I also have the old CP PE, who can only be built as a PE. I have Repentia (15) and Arcos (13). If I break out the metals, I've got 3 more PE's, 9 Arcos and Enough Repentia to max out (30 metal GW, 10 Resin Wargames Exclusive). The Dogmata, I think is the most suitable HQ. I also plan on bringing Karamazov because he'll look good with the walkers, but as an Agent, he can't be the Warlord. I miss the old character version of the Repentia Superior because a Penitent Legion needs someone fit to command the penitent. Looking forward to the Goonhammer review- especially the Crusade part.

Dread Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Three new detachments....nope wanted orders. Oh well they do sound interesting so waits to be seen what other goodies we'll receive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archon Kharidor Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Army of Faith - Will come in clutch a few times I think. I have encountered a few game changing moments that would rely on another guaranteed dice outcome, so that'll be nice. I'm more interested in their strat for the -1AP, can be used in the fight phase and shooting phase. That'll make some our units very tasty on the offence. I'll have to shake my habit of rolling mainly 1s and 2s for my miracle dice though Penitent Host - I run one unit of Arcos, one unit of Repentia and two solo Mortifiers, so I wouldn't really benefit from my detachment rule only effecting 4 units for three turns max. I'll likely just give this a miss. Bringers of Flame - Probably the most appealing for me. I play a lot of infantry and used to play White Scars, so I have absolutely benefitted from having advance and fire on many units. Manoeuvrability can win games and definitely helps score points. The +1S within 12" will help bolters pick off the occasional extra marine, and will be nice to pump the meltas up to S10. I can see Seraphim enjoying the +1S.

Emperor Ming Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 Will the +1s actually make a difference, (where it matters) Melta for example, +1 s to s9 wont actually make any difference when firing at most tanks that are t11+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
