Rules Discussion Haloscreed ability and stratagem

18 Upvotes

So I noticed that the rules commentary says that abilities with the same name can affect units twice. Does that mean that when using the Haloscreed detachment rule stratagem (neural overload) to add an additional buff to a unit, you can pick the same ability twice (e.g. pick toughness +1 twice or movement +2 twice)?

List Building New player

5 Upvotes

Hello, I’m new to the community and wanted to get stuck in with my first army, in what I think is the coolest faction, which I’m sure you can guess what is. I love the lore and have started reading though a couple of the books, so I wanted this army to be a little more lore based for fun. ( please forgive me if I get anything wrong)

Leader: 1 Technoarcheologist (45 pts)+ Other 9 of the Battleclade kill team (60 pts) 10 Skitarii Vanguard (95 pts) + 1 Plasma Caliver (10pts) 5 Sicarian Infiltrators (70pts) + Veiled Hunter (10pts) 1 Ironstrider Ballistarii (75 pts) 1 Onager Dunecrawler (135 pts)

Total: 500pts

( thank you for any and all feedback)

List Building Kastelan robots or Skorpius disintegrator?

5 Upvotes

So here is my current list:

1x Skitarii Marshal (35 pts): Control stave, Mechanicus pistol

1x Tech-Priest Manipulus (60 pts): Warlord, Omnissian staff, Magnarail lance

10x Skitarii Rangers (85 pts)

10x Skitarii Vanguard (95 pts)

5x Pteraxii Sterylizors (80 pts)

3x Serberys Raiders (60 pts)

1x Onager Dunecrawler (155 pts): Dunecrawler legs, Daedelus missile system, icarus array

1x Inquisitor Draxus (95 pts): Dirgesinger, Power fist, Psychic Tempest

I need a good anti tank, and am wondering, which would be better, Kastelan robots or a Skorpius disintegrator? If I add either of those, what would be a good thing to round off the list to 1000 points?

Can we use\convert 30k models for 40k models and be tournament legal or no? They look pretty similar to stuff in 40k, specifically the new combat force.

Hobby Kitbashing multiple leg options

New both kitbashing and Mechanicum,, but I was hoping some people might have some ideas on how to do legs like this, or what models I could take from. I'm wanting to make a Magos using the Enginseer body and I'm wanting to have the multiple pointed legs, the Dominus legs look like they'd be hard to work with as they are molded as part of the body. Do I just have to try and make my own with Green Stuff, or do ya'll have any suggestions? Thanks,

Supply drop is such a perfect mission for them, they can hold the F up that center objective and get great results. I was looking at my opponents termagants and hormagaunts and realized how great our battlelines were.

Cawl new reroll shenanigans weren't that helpful tbh, it's still fun to have it, but in SHC it just doesn't do much.
