So Darkstrider feels like an auto include now with the hidden/ go to ground in 11th

My boy denies 12 inch ingress (deep strike/ reserves) and is also 12inch lone op from hidden while he touches the home base, while also scouting or infiltrating. And he can markerlight guide

All for 60 points hes eclipsed Carnivores now for back field goobers

Try him out in your next game :)

Please share your tips for helping with mental exhaustion for GTTs

Like many of yall I will be heading up to Tacoma next week, this will be my 3rd year and with the new edition its going to feel like the wild west which is very exciting.

On the 3rd day I am very drained mentally however, so if anyone feels spry after 2 days of 6 games of tournament play please share your secrets! haha

I heard that taking 10 to 15 minutes to decompress and give your brain some rest can really help but thats just not really feasible for 40k.

So other than the basics (good sleep, hydrate, sit down as often as possible, preload dice for fast rolling) what other tools can we use to help with mental wellness?

How are yall feeling about Sun forged now vs our tanks?

The mobility with a coldstar attached is so nice now with the fly changes, and being able to deepstrike within melta range with experimental cadre is very nice but wounding anything tough on 5s or at best 4s (with farsight or strats) even with rerolls is so stressful.

Getting overwatched by defilers is also not a very fun experience, forcing you to commit 2 sunforged units just incase is rough. Atleast the thousand sons one can, I havent fought csm yet in 11th.

Are yall sticking with Sky rays and Rail hammerheads for dedicated anti tank? Maybe even railsides?

Kroot hunting pack with experimental cadre feels really fun

Being able to deep strike sunforge into melta range is so awesome, who needs stealth suits or pathfinders when you have crisis suits and 27 krootox haha

The 2inch engagement range is a huge buff to rampagers impact mortals aswell

Take and hold is a great disposition aswell

Whats the largest or highest kill count from a bomb squig? (Or any splody git really?)

Would it be the famous titan kill or have we ever reached exterminatus levels for the funsies?

In the new detachment with that hand of justice enhancement he can melee pretty hard but hes made of paper mache with only 18 wounds and 2 armigers are cheaper, tankier, more action economy, and do more damage when adding both up

I wish his base wasn't so big too its crazy its the same size as the bigs
