Re: Space Marine Topic
That's because the FC actually contributes with something to the sm army, at the worst, if you lose the apo you lose a capper. Also the apo is the melee hero with the lowest healt pool in the game (600 like commie lord but without the shield) with any other commander ranged or not having more hp th...

Re: Space Marine Topic
Yeah, I actually second this. If I lose my FC a few times to a flesh hook it's pretty much GG, I simply can't compete with my foes eco if I keep burning up all req on revives, but you can literally revive your apo for free about three times over the course of a match, and let's face it termies aren'...

if you have to totally redesign it that is because it breaks the current way in which the eco works.

Re: Acid Splatter
I was surprised to see in that equation that Chaos is listed as stronger than SM. And even more surprising that IG is listed at the very bottom. Where did this piece of unexplainable crap come from? I'll probably derive a proper proof for you later at some point, a bit busy these days, but it will ...

Re: Imperial Guard Topic
the Kasrkin Squad seems overly versatile at the moment, for example, the weapon upgrade options at the moment, seem borderline redundant due to the anti armour and anti infantry grenades each squad is already loaded out with. Thus, in my opinion, in order to prevent the squad becoming way to overki...

Re: Acid Splatter
We've already derived such an equation for 1v1: IG = SM < chaos < eldar < orks = nids I derive this purely on how many good MUs each race has with its three leaders. It's interesting really though because orks and nids dominate sm/eldar/chaos but IG's best two MUs are orks and nids, whereas the two ...

Re: Acid Splatter
Indrid I don't understand why you aren't getting my point. The venom cannon cannot be UP just because it isn't as good as the crushing claws because the claws might not be balanced in the first place, therefore basing any balance decision off of a comparison of them two wargears is absolutely 100% p...

Wat Stop arguing semantics. Your example would be the opposite way of saying the exact same thing; still a balance issue is observed "other wargears are overpowered" brought about by comparing the wargears/roles in the first place, hence it is not completely without merit. No. It isn't br...

Re: Acid Splatter
Comparing mutually exclusive wargear is not completely without merit guys; you are comparing two different roles yes, but more so how efficient they are on the same entity. If one build is much more efficient than another, the natural course is to call the inefficient build underpowered. No. It wou...

Re: Acid Splatter
Indrid that's a poor line of reasoning. Eldar webway gates cost 50 red and are extremely powerful, therefore crack shot must be buffed,and the warp spider call-in-global should be decreased in red, to at least encourage using them as an alternative. With his second armour the RA cannot be knocked do...

The fire shells of spotters are doing too much damage, i was using double spotter build, used double inc shells and the setup team died before he could de-setup I don't find one spotter particularly OP, but two probably would result in a t2 wipe of a suppression team, maybe spotters should be cappe...

His weapons are more than effective at the moment, really don't see any reason to change this guy, he is currently one of the best balanced heroes in the game, except for maybe some bionic eye hiccups.

Re: Space Marine Topic
So... When do Catachans get a sniper rifle upgrade?
I also think one reason why rangers are so cheap is because they are the only eldar detector and in some MUs you don't want the snipers but end up getting them just for the detection, in that scenario the rangers do need to be cheap.

Re: Grey Knights Topic
It's getting a massive buff next patch. However regarding the BC's power sword, I would argue it is a defensive upgrade, much more so than the FC's which is more of a support upgrade, as it is decent defensively, offensively and buffensively. Because the BC's sword grants an improved WATH, it means ...

Re: Idea for Commissar Global
Bionic Eye is nerfed in Elite AFAIK. Units take knockback while they are under the effect. I don't believe they do, although it may allow KB, while granting immunity to suppression and a speed buff+heal, which IMO is far better on units like ogryns who will then be moving at like speed 10 doing 310...

Re: Idea for Commissar Global
I was playing retail yesterday and some poor fool went assault termies instead of ranged termies against my IG. Suffice to say catachans + execute + lead by example = dead termies. Then comes elite with its ridiculous bionic eye and then LTTE. Sounds pretty effective.

The global is fine, albeit very niche. It wouldn't work on cats though due to how bd their ranged damage is atm. 20dps piercing seems great at first, but their low range kinda negates that + they don't lose models easily. First of all Catachan ranged damage is very high. Yes they need to be close b...
