Here are a few pics from the Skitarii. Hopefully they do some justice. Arc weapons, machine spirit snap shots, new conversion beamer and spider tanks.

Hopefully all that extra haywire will push the meta away from IK/heavy vehicles a bit further.

For every 6 to wound it generates an extra 2 wounds regardless of toughness...BOOOlol

I'd be more worried about the 18" assault 3 plasma...3 or 4 of those in a squad will put a hurting on any MC...

The Haywire doesn't actually look all that common, unless some of the other Units can take way more Special Weapons. We'll see, but my impression so far is that it's not going to make much more difference than the Haywire in Harlequins.

There's no such thing as "supposed to," and what you want doesn't matter. All that matters is what happened.

Or boyz in battle wagons? It freaking sucks. It's like trying to stop a tsunami of steroid pumped cyborg rottweilers from eating you.

I think the most common build will be a unit of 10 with 4 that have the arc guns and rest with rad guns (think those are the rangers) 8 BS4 haywire and S6 and 12 BS4 S3 rad is a pretty solid shooting round against most things save for 2+ save models and even then that's a good number of potential wounds.

But yeah those assault 3 Plas guns made my Carnifexes whimper.

Looks like Skitarii would be meat for Venom Cannons and Stranglethorns, just like AM and Necrons. What I'm curious about is the Doctrina Imperatives rules.

Wow I actually like the atheistic and see this army as something fresh but to each his own I guess! I'm actually excited to be starting a new army after 8+ years of Nids and Black Templars!

i can dig the space prussians. after seeing a couple angles on the chicken walkers, they've grown on me (if only they werent $50/model). It'll be my first imperial faction (as soon as i offload my necrons).

The sheer volume of precision fire in this codex is going to make for interesting games.

Maybe for hormys and stealers. The Trygon just needs his 12" move restored.
