PSA RIP New Recruit

190 Upvotes

New Recruit seems to have gotten hit with legal demands from GW. All the rules text is showing up as redacted.

Bummer. I liked their app and have paid their sub fee for 2 years.

Edits:

People in comments are saying it's a bug and should be getting fixed? If so, that's great news.

Added a picture of the notification I got from New Recruit.

TBarker 746 (dev) says it was a mistake and should be fixed soon. Disaster averted. Their comment is below.

40k List Tabletop beginner

1 Upvotes

I recently got into the hobby. Finished my first salamanders combat patrol and I want to try out to play the game. I live in Woodbridge, VA, and I don’t know where to look. I tried the Woodbridge Warhammer store, but they are recently opened so there isn’t much of a scene here. Any tips or ideas on how to find places and people that would be ok with starting off with a newbie?

Death Guard

Krieg

Iron warriors

Grey knight (unsure due to model update)

40k Tactica Tips for Playing a Mono Shooting List?

5 Upvotes

I am a codex space marines player and have up until recently been playing a mono melee marines list, which I have become fairly good at piloting.

I am now trying out a mono shooting iron hands list, and am meeting with MUCH more difficult games. I can tell this is due to poor piloting, and would love some advice.

Do you have any general tips for running a mono shooting list? What has been successful for you? Any help is appreciated!

40k List 1k BA list, did i cook or i am dead turn 1?

0 Upvotes

Don't usually play competitive, mostly narrative scenarios with 3 or 4 friends in one big table. Also and I haven't played 11th yet, so, what do you think? My only fear is too little damage having only 1 SG squad, but trading should be easier giving lance to the outriders. Melta Eradicators + Impulsor are too good to not take in 1000 points where not having antitank could just lose me the game turn 1. Company Heroes (Imperium sword on ancient) + Priest should allow me to fight for the middle and intercessors were just what i picked last based on the point i had to take care of the home objective, i know they don't have sticky, but they are decent enough and i already have them painted.

Again, let me know what do you think!

Thanks!

40k Discussion Would any Melee army NOT take Assault Brethren if they could?

105 Upvotes

The more and more I play with the marine Codex, the more that this detachment impresses me. Every list starts with the AssBros detachment and the more I play it, the more a question comes into my mind. Would any Melee-slanted army NOT take Assault Brethren if they could? It's the only detachment in the game where I feel like every aspect is just broken.

Gives T&H, arguably the best disposition. 1 Turn armywide Adv + Charge is one of the best buffs in the game. You can spend 20 (TWENTY) Points for a 6A BS2 S7 AP3 Dam3 sword that gets buffed by whatever unit you put it on, 10 points per squad for Sustained Hits as an upgrade, and the three strats are AoC (Amazing), Fight on Death (Most melee armies want some form of this) and a 1CP damage nuke with Lance and +1AP. It's a complete suite of every tool a melee army wants with damage multipliers, mobility and survivability.

Give your hyper mobile unit The Death Sword, add Sustained hits to a unit that needs a bit more punch, use lance and +1AP to turn something like chainswords on the outrider charge from chip damage to murder blenders.

For all the talk of how busted Death Watch and the Terminator 1DPs are, I feel like AssBros is slipping quietly by. Am I missing something here, or is this just the best 1DP in the game?

40k Discussion Question about WSIWYG and retired wargear [SM infiltrators, scouts, and Reivers]

20 Upvotes

So these questions are geared towards tournaments.

Infiltrators: they used to have a comms array model that came in the mass produced box. Their current optional gear, is the helix gauntlet, which was one only available in a one-off box. Can I say the comms array model is the helix gauntlet?

Scouts: Their default wargear is now bolt gun, pistol, abd knife. But I have a model that just has the pistol and knife, because it looks cool and that build used to standard. Is my scout without a bolt gun or shotgun ok to be said to have the default wargear?

Reivers: Same question as Scouts. It used to be carbine or pistol and knife. Now all 3 are default. So no matter what, reivers have the carbine, pistol, and knife? Also, do all models need to have the grapnel guns, or just one?

I Get to try my NEW Drukhari Wyches on Wyches army list in this Warhammer 40k Battle Report. It was a Great game against World Eaters piloted by my guest Alastair! Will the Staby Stabs be enough? Or shall the Skulls collected for Khorne prove to be a worthy offering?

I play Recon and my opponent plays purge the foe , he runs a very similar list to what I played against Jack Harpster a few weeks ago.
