Frowny Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 You could always just ally in an incantor or exorcist something. Cast with bottle, manipulate with ally. Obviously more expensive point-wise though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bululu Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Hi mates, i have a question about the iron sky command attack squadron, what is the general concensus about arkanaut leaving the frigate after flying high. As general FAQ flying high is not a move and vessel doesnt count as moved, since the batallion lets you get arkanauts after frigate has moved then you cant do it after fly high. At least its what i read, have i missed something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.A.O.S Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 Hi! I've a rule question: is exit from garrison considered a movement for the purpose of gaining control of objectives? For example in place of arcane power. The doubt is related to the fact that the garrison rule says that exit from a garrison Is considered the move for the unit in that movement phase. From FAQ related to reserve a unit that has been removed from play, and set it up again on the battlefield, does not count as have made a move por other rules purpose. But KO exit from garrison do not require to remove the unit from play and set it up again, the unit is in play and it is in the garrison, a big difference (so it is not like a teleport, or fly high rule, for example), moreover from faq KO garrisoned unit does not count as reserve. So I think that deployment from garrison can be considered as a movement for catching objectives purposes! What do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the faq says the "this count as their movement text thing" means they did not make a move, independent of if they are or arent in the battlefield. So i would say no, you cant capture the the objectives that need to finish a move to be captured i think :(. This and the fly high and drop the batallion arkanauts needs to get faq fixed, its just stupid imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if I use There is Always A Breeze, can I "Fly High" instead of making a normal move in the Hero Phase, then use a Normal Move in the Movement Phase, the Arkanauts can charge 3D6 per Iron Sky Squadron's benefit correct?

Exactly, and the charge is considered a move so in that scenarios where you capture after a move, you will be able to meet the requeriments, for example consider this. Green is the objective, Blue square is your unit, red square is an enemy unit and little blue squares are your unit miniatures after doing the charge. In 1 of the scenarios, to capture, you must end a movement 3'' of the objective with a battleline unit, as charge and pile in are valid movements for this, you can charge the enemy unit, leaving the first miniature 0.5'' of distance to the red unit, and then the rest of your unit doing a line to the objective. In that situation you will end a movement within 3'' of that objective and capture it. Remember also that pile in is also considered a valid move for this purpose, i will give another example. In this case you have 2 unit but one enemy unit doesnt let you reach the objective, so you charge with both After your first unit combat you destroy the enemy unit, but still cant capture cause you aint at 3'' range, but then as you charged with your unit 2, you can pile in getting into range of the objective and finishing a move within 3'' and capturing it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jo0nes Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 I thought I'd post my list here for some input. I want to play Mhornar in order to try and kite around with my ships using galeforce stave making it harder for my enemy to charge in on my ship while my arkanauts capture objectives. I liked the sound of khemist buffing arkanauts with aetheric augmentation (reroll wounds of 1) and bjorgens aetheric augmentation (reroll hits of 1). Is that allowed? it's an ability so I think it can be applied more times than one from different sources, but I'd like to have that confirmed. The endrinworks are modifiable since they don't rely on my general strategy. The Last word is one I enjoy using, but it can easily be swapped to something else. Also "the one who strikes first, strikes hardest" does that allow me to effectively attack with two units before it's my opponents turn?

Celadoor Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 (edited) What would be some good melee focused units that I could either take as allies, or take in Barak Thryng? Thinking maybe Fyreslayers of some sort? My friendly AoS group seems to be a little annoyed that my list is too strong, and perhaps is a little boring for them to play against, because of the never ending shooting phase - so I'm trying to think of ways to mix it up to improve their experience Edited September 10, 2020 by Celadoor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes using aetheric augmentation from Thundrik and Khemist is allowed. I do think you would be best served to drop them, add in 3 more riggers to make a nice team to fly with one of the gunhaulers, and also give you the points for the rupture if you wanted to go that route. What goes in the ironclad? The 20 arks or the thunderers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo0nes Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 I'm toying with the idea of trying more thing with the spell in a bottle, but that will force me to swap out my illuminator pistol. The route without thundrik and more riggers is nice, I like the thought of splitting the riggers into 3-3 like you said. Those hopping into the ironclad originally is the thunderers. Depending on how I like to play the army I'm thinking of having mixed special weapons on them so I can drop them out on an objective to defend while the ironclad covers other parts of the board Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ciotola Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 hi, I wanted to ask if a 1k point list like this is semi competitive and could give satisfaction on the battlefield. I love thunderers and I would like to exploit them as much as possible, maximizing the movement through the ironclad and the volume of fire in the shooting phase, the idea is to be able to decimate the opponent as quickly as possible so as to freely contest the objectives in the remaining rounds after the extermination. ty Allegiance: Kharadron Overlords - Sky Port: Barak Nar Kharadron Code - Artycle: Respect Your Commanders - Amendment: Trust Aethermatics Not Superstition - Footnote: Through Knowledge Power LEADERS Endrinmaster with Endrinharness (100) - General - Command Trait : Champion of Progress - Artefact : Aethercharged Rune UNITS 5 x Grundstok Thunderers (120) or full refile - 1 x Aetheric Fumigators - 1 x Decksweepers - 1 x Aethercannons - 1 x Grundstok Mortars 10 x Grundstok Thunderers (240) or full refile - 1 x Aetheric Fumigators -2 x Decksweepers - 2 x Aethercannons - 1 x Grundstok Mortars BEHEMOTHS Arkanaut Ironclad (480) - Main Gun : Great Sky Cannon grat endrin: shoot face on charge or fliy high when fat Extra Command Point (50) TOTAL: 990/1000 WOUNDS: 54 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
