I've come up with the Cadian Castellan Double Dip: Blob of 20 Guard, whoever you like, outfitted with 2x grenade launchers and x2 rocket launcher teams. Stick a Cadian Castellan on them and give him Drill Commander so his Sustained Hits 1 procs on a 5+ if they have Remained Stationary. Watch as Krak missiles and grenades now have a 1 in 3 chance to auto hit, auto wound (due to Born Soldiers) and generate a second hit. And if they charge you, just Fall Back and schmack them with a dozen lasguns and a few Frag grenades/missiles with exploding 6's. Absolutely dirt nasty.

Played my first game of tenth and having an infantry squad of 20 with a deathkorp marshel. The 5+fnp made them survive a 24 wound blast from some tau breachers with all the stratagems to ignore cover and blasting past my armour save. It’s a fantastically strong unit

Report from the front: a major weakness of the Psyker + Marshal combination is overwatch fire, as massed sustained hits fire or flamers will cut through them since the invulnerable save ends at the end of the phase it activates on
@aiken2258
Жыл бұрын
For flamers though you're looking at AP0 or AP-1 and the same for most massed anti-infantry weapons. So a lot of the time their armour save with the benefit of cover will be providing a similar or better level of protection than the invuln.

The solution is simple. Don't charge into overwatch. Bait the stratagem out somewhere else or avoid it all together. You don't have the cc to make charging worth it and with move move move, you should always be able to get in position on points so you're the one being charged and can overwatch in all but the most dire situations

Stick her with some Kasrkin. Order 1RF2RF for +1 shots from rapid fire Order Take Aim! for +1 ballistic skill Combined with Fields of Fire (at ZERO CP) for additional AP-1 Rapid fire includes Plasma guns and hot shot las.... So 'Plasma up' a 10 man Kasrkin squad that can have 2 Plasmas overcharged, firing 3 shots each, hitting on 2s (LOL), auto-wounding on 6 anyway because Born Soldiers shenanigans, with S8, AP-4 and 2 damage each!

Bully boy unit - Take out the Preacher and put in a command squad with full chainswords, powerfist and Ogryn with Huge Knife, this will add significantly more threat than the Preachers buff. Gigablob - use it with DKoK (2x Sniper, 2x Plasma, 2xGL). Now the Enginseer, Servitors (2x Plasma Cannon), Platoon command squad (Lascannon, Sniper and Plasma) and Ogryn (with Ripper), are all getting +1 to hit as soon as a guy dies (that's bs3+ servitors if the unit doesn't move and is given Take Aim). Throw in Drill Commander and boom - that's a mid range unit that puts out a serious amount of firepower with Lethal hits on a 5+, it also has recovering models. Have a Russ or Dorn sitting nearby so the Enginseer can buff it with the amazing 4++ and d3 recovered wounds.

Big Brain mode for the Straken blob: Swap the Regimental Preacher for a Regimental Enginseer with 4 melee Servitors. If you have a scout sentinel nearby that dies, then the Enginseer has almost the same combat profile as Straken himself. Plus 4 hits coming in at damage 3 from the Servitor fists. That gives you 13 attacks at (Str 7, AP -3, D2) plus 4 attacks at (Str7, AP -3, D3) Not to mention the actual Catachan attacks. That might put a dent in those 8bound 😅

I run 2 command squads and those are my “anchor” blobs tossing orders and holding key points on the battlefield. The other 3 blobs are expendable and still usually take tons of effort to kill. And if they do die, just reinforce. I haven’t been overwhelmed by blast.

I prefer Infantry Squad over DKoK for durability because I want my infantry on objectives and the Infantry Squad gets cover on objectives. I keep hearing that units will be in cover most of the time, but that's highly dependent on the terrain you will have access to. If DKoK get 2 medipacks per 20man, then I would definitely reconsider. Also, there should be some serious consideration for including commissars in DKoK squads so they can effectively make use of their +1 to hit and wound without risk of battle-shocking.

Giga blob sounds the most fun. But its got a pretty big problem. Blast. Also maybe flamers. While it does have a TON of wounds, you have to take the damage on the guards first. Once the guards all die all the leaders get split up. And when the guards are not dead, every single blast weapon is getting +6 shots. That's +18 shots from a single heavy mortar team, before they even roll those dice.

You can't actually take 2 heavy weapon teams and 2 special weapons in an Infantry squad. You can take 1 special weapon for every 10 models but the heavy weapon team takes up 2 models but counts as 1 so it's only a squad of 18. The warhammer app won't let me add 2 in them when I have 2 heavy weapon teams as evidence.

Nice combo. However, they can't use their ability on a turn they dismount. That is because abilities can't be used from inside transports, unless there is a special exception (like chimeras and officers). Also, the timing of orders in the command phase doesnt work well with disembarking from transports in the movement phase. I still think greyfax+kasrkin in a transport works well enough though.
