PRECISION keyword and ways to (ab)use it

PRECISION keyword and ways to (ab)use it

Hello brothers ! Recently i’ve played my friend who is a zealous thousands sons player, his sorcerers are quite strong in my opinion- and so i had the idea to test eliminators and it worked perfectly ! I’ve shot down a sorcerer with a strong enhancement and this helped a lot to clean out his unit and ultimately win.

Now i require your help brothers - eliminators are good but i got lucky that last time, yet i did learn the value of Precision which became one of my favorite keywords (not kidding) and so i am looking for any stratagems, detachment buff, unit combos, enhancement etc for our eliminators, reivers and other precision units if we have some that could be used as to prepare a strategy that could wipe out in one phase (melee or ranged) a character. And it may seem irrelevant to you, for me it’s a necessity so i am willing to listen and try out any ideas proposed by anyone, no matter how goofy or ridiculously expensive the strategy ends up to as long as it fits in the followings rules :

  1. From space-marines army only (sorry vindicare)
  2. Must be able to kill a decent character (not custodes level but yk quite tanky bois like chaos lords at max) that leads a unit in one phase

Now that i told y’all about my request, i’d gadly accept your help in fulfilling it ! (And im sorry for writing that bad, hope i was clear tho)

Hello ! Been recently checking on the Imperial Knights and i wanted to know what do they have in difference? Like, how acastus are different to questoris or cerastus and normal knights (in game - and lore, if you know about it)

Why pick other chaos space-marines for chaos SM ?

Hello ! I was just wondering, why would anyone pick Plague marines, Rubric Marines, Khornes Berzerkers or Noise marines in addition for his Heretic Astartes list ? What can they add to an army and how would you play them ?

Months of shame opinion

I may be an UM player (hate me if you want) but i always loved the Grey Knights, design, missions, weapons, characters… however, i had a question - what is y’all opinion on the months of shame ? From the vids i’ve seen everyone glorify the space wolves as if they were the parangons of humanity but i kept having that weird thing of « i feel like the grey knights are right tho » so i wanna know if my opinion is biased and grey knights really went in the wrong or if there really is a « Spaces wolves weren’t completely innocent » and if there is one i’ll be GLAD to hear it !

Help to uncover a certain glitch

Hello, I have came to this sub as I needed assistance for a certain glitch (I don’t have the right term for It, forgive me) I have encountered on an application, with that being said i will try my best to provide the most informations I can.

This occured on an application named WH 40K, based on the universe and game of the universe of Warhammer 40K, it is used to read rules and create lists (I don’t know if that must be precised but the lists are made to know what miniature you will play on the game without surpassing a certain limit.) basically what happened is that while the app forbids you for having more than 1 list and make it unable to surpass that limit without a subscription, i opened the app at one moment after editing my single list and switching to something else for a while and ended up with the list being duplicated, there was still a message about the fact we couldn’t have more than one but it was there, i am completely able to edit is as if it was normal and i do not know how this occured. Now i am on mobile and suffer no wifi issue, i’ve been trying to replicate the glitch but never could, may anyone tell me how could this happen ?

(Also, on a second device the glitch occured again but this time I had 3 of the same list and not 2, i still don’t know how and why)

If anyone can help i’ll be thankful, beside i can answer any question if someone has some.

(And i must admit i have already published this same post in some other subs in order to get more help, yet no response was given)

Why don’t we do the same ?

Hello brothers ! I took a look recently at the admech and custodes reddit and saw them do what i considered a genuinely great idea, just called « things models does best and worst » someone basically puts everyday/week one model from one of the units in the faction and the comments have to answer by giving what they think the pros and cons of said unit ! This may seems dumb but considering we have many squads with many different purposes that makes people get lost in which is one is better at this or that i think proposing the same format for this reddit based on space marines could help us all and make people more engaged while giving people useful informations on models/units that did or didn’t interest them at first !

Of course, someone would have to take care of it and keep a list so we don’t propose twice the same models but that shouldn’t be too hard, i personally don’t do it because i have no idea if this seems like a waste of time or could help in y’all opinions, that’s why im asking here !

How do i make him more iron warriors

So i had a chaplain before that my friend bought me (both of us are beggining) for my space marines army, however, i won’t have any use for him so i (tried, don’t judge me) made him a master of possession, do y’all know how could i make this guy more IW ? Sure for the hazards lines but then- where? And what else ? I take any feedbacks but im a REAL beginner on modifying miniatures ? (I don’t have the word for it) and most of all, i suck at painting.

Attempt at making a master of possession, how did i do?

Hello ! I am a beginner at painting but i love using the bits i have left or models i don’t use to try and make something new- here i tried to do a master of possession (i don’t know if for y’all it fits the profile-) and again, sorry for the paint, i suck about that. But anyway here’s my dude ! (Im fairly new to the whole hobby in all honesty)

Victrix guards

Hello i wanted to ask, what is the genuine use of these dudes ? Glory of Ultramar doesn’t seem useful at ALL like, it’s a surge move of D6 and from what im reading you can do it once per phase so what is the use of this if your victrix just get obliterated all in one ? Even better, you get CLOSER to the ennemy but since D6 basically SUCKS you’re making yourself more exposed so what now ? I- i really don’t get it.

Humbly asking a question

Hello ! I am myself not a Custodes player but one of my friend is and we were talking about the new box like everyone probably does, now we’re begginers in the 40k hobby and we saw the four jet-bikes who, according to his codex are agamatus custodes ? (Correct me if im wrong) and so can be played as units of 3 models. We also saw these models couldn’t be used as Vertus praetor as the jetbikes are different. I came to check the shield-captain on jetbike and seems his vehicule is also different so what could be the use of the 4th bike ? What could my friend use it for ? Thanks for reading until there :D

u/romeo2008lp — 2 months ago

Any way i can proxy those and play them in 40k ?

Hello ! I recently found the WONDERFUL decimators, AND I LOVE THEM ! Now i have to ask- is there any way as chaos space-marine we can use those instead of something else and play it in real games ? Like competitive or something else? If you have any idea im taking it !

Why Sustained hits on dark pacts ?

Hello ! Im soon starting a chaos sm army and about our army rules, Dark Pacts which allows to choose euther Lethal Hits or Sustained Hits 1, why does everyone pick Sustained hits ? Wether i go look at battle reports, reddit, ask people irl, everyone pick sustained hits but why ? Isn’t it better to assure some damage instead of trying to greed and get more hits ?

I was just wondering- im a rather unlucky player in general so achieving a 6 is heavenly, in my head it’s a 1000 times better to make that hit count instead of adding another roll that needs to pass Wound and Save to damage.

And please- as much as i like RP and memes i would like a real explanation not like « the more the merrier » or « we’re chaos, greed is normal » but of course if your explanation is just that you’ve felt like doing so then idm, everyone pick what he wants.
