LitBashing interview with the tournament winner • How to win Legions Imp...
Great breakdown. I wish these tournaments were filmed so we could see the games. You asked about what content we’re interested in. I will watch anything LI related you put up! Thank you!
a minimal space wolves demi-company and atleast one SA pioneer company are a given in my lists
I really enjoyed your video 😊
Love it, thanks.
A word on "expensive" : I cannot recall in my 45+ years with Citadel / GW that they were anytime cheap. There were " comparably" cheaper armies then others. But in comparison to, say Mantic, Perry, and the likes, Citadel/GW was always top of the line. And as a hobby, GW games were and are among the most expensive especially considering that all the great minis, the great quality prints become worthless 8ften after a few years due to major changes in the rules, the units profiles or both. So everyone starting with GW games should be clear about that these products typically have a shorter lifespan then, say Kings of War, Bolt Action or most other rulesets and related minis ( see Epic 40k, WHFB, AoS and several 40k editions ). Now with that out of the way, you can buy almost every standard LI Box at online shops ( who often maintain reallive game shops as well ) for anywhere between 32 and 35 EUR instead of 40. The large starter boxsets are available for around 130 instead of 155 EUR. These are all prices from official GW retailers. So this alone saves you at least 100 EUR on a 2k Army...leaving some moneys for terrain, gamemat, paints...😊...have fun with LI as it lasts..I' ll certainly do and write off the 600 EUR I'll spend...
If I may... Everyone knows you go 3rd party, unless something is unavailable, but discounts and numbers are region/shop dependent, so it makes sense to refer to RRP in UA-cam videos/discussion.
I also have to disagree on the 'expense' aspect - the prices in the 'modern era' are astronomical, relative to when I, for example, bought the original adeptus titanicus, Man O' War, Ork & Squat Warlords, Blood Bowl, etc with my pocket money, while at primary school. I also had a spell back in 6th/7th and had no qualms forking out for Battleforces and Combat Patrols, which today, would be on par with the 'much lauded', recently de-availablised GSC box (yes, the situation is worth inventing a word for). Until production volumes increase, they seem content knowing that, of all the wider audience now interested in the products, there will always be (at least) just enough who can afford to pay a chunk more, before folding, to sell the limited supply available and keep investors happy.
Infiltrated Tarantalas and Dreadnaughts are crazy efficient. 68 points for 8 skyfire batteries and you can infiltrate them into a building. This makes a 25" no-go circle in the middle of the board. You are guaranteed to out trade a player who brought fliers by doing that. Dreadnaughts are too slow to get into the game at 5" a turn. Unless they start 4" away, in which case they are mathematically the best shooting and combat unit in the game.
You absolutely cannot infiltrate anything into buildings that are not 100% inside your deployment zone. So no, you can’t do this in the middle of your board.
Might not be able to deploy them in the structure but as long as you deploy them in base contact with a building at the end of the first turn they can garrison it at the end of their movement phase activation
Pioneer companies and Alpha Legion / Raven Guard...
Since infiltration is crazyly strong, it is not amazing to see them. Kinda sad for the balance and the fun :/
Keep those lists fluffy and fun until you need to break out the big guns at a competitive event. Forewarned is forearmed!
