I think a list focusing on smaller suits is fine and if you can make crisis work that’s great. I do think you need to resist the urge to keep all the other units. As far as I can tell the only unit you have left out from the Third Phase list is Kroot. And who wants Kroot? Although on the surface the... |

It would have been neater if they'd split Sniper into two rules: Sniper: attacker chooses how to allocate hits Armour Piercing: -1 save It could even be done now as it's backwards compatible: just give both rules to anything with current Sniper. No need to touch Lance. I don't see the need to have t... |

Quite often this would make the outcome almost certain through simply BMs, less need to hedge with support etc. I can empathise that a 5 point swing is a lot and can be jarring as a result; it could be reduced and the game wouldn’t suffer for it. But risk and surprise IMO add a hefty slice of what m... |

Not sure I understand your first question? As you say, the rules explicitly say WEs block line of sight so yes they do. Normal units do not. We the rules say “may” block LoS. Couldn’t find anything definitive or that would mention units of war engines. Thanks so far. You mean this bit from 1.9.2? &... |

I have to say I was excited to get a resin printer until this thread. For the people that have been at it since this thread was written have things got any better or should I sit on the sidelines until a new (better) generation of the tech comes out? Nothing has materially changed except more STLs ... |

Those are interesting charts. Some details though, all units get 6+ save within transport regardless if they have any. I had it this way originally, but actually if hit by a MW then there is no cover save so 0 armour is valid, so I added it back. Though granted the RA transport & zero armour tr... |

Re MW: What Dave said. Quite often it does mean in practice that you can effectively choose to fire MW at the infantry, because often infantry are in base contact with the AV transports. Not sure what you mean Dave about the -1? The rulebook has quite a good section about Hull down (intervening terr... |

1. Yes it should be fixed, it happened when the stompa upgrade cost was dropped but the big/uge formation costs were not.
2. Warbands come with trukks, but boyz are not the only units that can fit in a landa...in particular a kult of speed. |

Looks like an interesting list. The emporer is crazy strong. The 3+ reinforced is crazy powerful Initially I was actually initially sad he didn't have a 1+ save but actually I think everything looks about right. His armour would be better than a terminator (3+ RA) and he's nigh-unwoundable (holofie... |

Not sure I understand your first question? As you say, the rules explicitly say WEs block line of sight so yes they do. Normal units do not. All three would get -1. But you can choose per target class. For example "AP at in cover, AT out of cover, MW in cover". Remember also that "sho... |

I have a table of 'expected kills per hit' for transported units, which can be compared to raw armour values in the most basic comparison: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fpL0tOP-iqXhVJFq0vL6OTJhk13V681Fs-0kOZd6NX8 However it's quite difficult to take it to the next step of showing "whi... |

ISTR Adam really did not want it to be called 'army builder' due to trademark issues. The project can be forked and any domain you like chose, but may run into the same issues.
