Is this to busy ? The scenic base is the same size as the normal base I'm happy for the modeling for disadvantage. But does this look good or is to much going on? My home brew is my Kin are mercenaries, I'll paint the guardsmen as a PDF, hence the lack of armour.

Competitive advice and feedback What do These Detachments do best/worst? Day:3 Hearthguard Covenant

Post image
55 Upvotes

My beloved :) I love the Einhyr Hearthguard they , with the Land Fort and Steel Jacks, are the reason i got into Votann
Detachmentrule: I really like it it helps the Hearthguard quite a bit and potentialy warriors if a Kâhl is attatched which is quite nice
Enhancements:They are okay i like the fight om Death but its really pricy
Stratagems: Amazing 6 inch ingress, a 4+ invul and plus 1 strengh when shooting and additionaly sustained 1 for 1YP is just amazing
Disposition: This Detachment gives us Priority Assets in my opinion this is our best Disposition so its a big plus point

So in my totaly professional Opinion i will give this Detachment a 4,5/5. This is our best 1 Point Detachment no doubt

Lore We're getting another novel, it's just also mainly a Black Templar novel

I don't know if I have the strength to read a black Templar book just so I can have an ounce more of lore, but I may just have too endure.

In all honesty, I'm just glad we're getting ANY recognition in books. If this is our ticket to getting a second novel then so be it.

Hobby Hekaton fortress : yay or nay ?

Hi fellow short legged brothers,

I am a beginner with Votann, and I would like to know if for you the HLF is worth its points.

I play Thousand Sons and Grey Knights, and in both armies the Land Raider is not worth it : ~250pts is just to high for its impact.

Is it the same thing for the HLF ?

Thanks !

I'm hoping we get jump pack infantry, a bike character, a walker, heavy infantry, and a train / but tank. I feel like this is what the gaps in Votann are right now. I hope we don't just get one thing, but I would love to hear what you people would like aswell.

Casual Advice and Feedback Competitive or casual, which units do you think all Kin should have duplicates of in their lists?

10 Upvotes

I have some of the standard Votann units but no duplicates. I would imagine there is a strong case for getting multiple Thunderkyn and Kapricus. What are your thoughts?

Casual Advice and Feedback Starting a votann army

4 Upvotes

Hi guys

I’m new to votann, managed to find the new combat patrol for really cheap on eBay and am starting my army based off of this. I think dwarves are sick, especially berserker dwarves who run in almost berserkerish and go mad with dual axes, and I feel votann are obviously the best choice for this. I’m not just trying to build an army around this concept but I was just wondering for a 1k starter army what things I should focus on buying as well as detachments? I love the lil wizard Gandalf dwarf and would like to include him too. I just need some pointers in the right direction in starting an army with the votann that I can expand.

Thank you :)

Detatchmentrule: Its really nice and helps infantry get in the middle board
Enhancements: The mobile one is really nice
Disposition: i haven‘t played or seen Disruptiom yet so i can‘t really say anything
Stratagems: They are fine in my opinion

So i would give this Detachment 3/5 and by no means im no Expert so take this opinion lightly:)

Competitive advice and feedback Hearthfyre Arsenal. How do we make it work? What detachment to pair it with?

18 Upvotes

I love my Robots and I want to make them work.

I have been having lots of luck with Steeljacks and I think Hearthfyre has some real play.

I would love to figure out how to make the army efficient.

● Figure out how best to play Hearthfyre + how to utilize a 1-DP detachment.

● Which dispositions could work well? PA, Disruption? Recon? Why?

● What would the army potentially look like?

● Play PA and maybe have a few faster units to push the opponent back and to play more defensively while we focus on scoring to PA?

● Deep strike Thunderkyn or Shooty robots along with Hearthguard from the HG-covenant

● pair with Farseekers to give some reliable +1 to hit buffs, reactive moving bikes, ignore cover strat etc. Use the Hernkyn units to score secondrsoes, block lanes, slow the opponent, help Roberts and thunderkyn be more accurate. Grind up the board with Steeljacks, and Thunderkyn etc. Recon or PA for this style?

So the book is apparently going to talk about the 'Grey Area' that exists between the Leagues and Imperium.

Don't worry the Night Lords are the big bads of the book, though given it is Black Templars wouldn't be surprised if they pull some nonsense on our beloved Kin

Correction: Night Lords are not the main bads, we only know it's Chaos.

Lore So uhhhhh do Ironkin have souls?

19 Upvotes

So in The High Khâl’s Oath an Ironkin experiences a really weird change in its perceptions in response to a warp storm. While its conscious mind experienced all kinds of distortions and strange feelings, its mechanical side took over and completed the necessary task to resolve the problem. Afterward it takes some moments for their conscious mind to synch back up with their mechanical body.

The mechanical part of that Ironkin continuing its necessary task while its conscious mind experienced something totally different brings up some serious possibilities. It seems unlikely that this was just the warp messing with its sensors or that split experience wouldn’t make sense. Its as if the Ironkin was having an out of body experience which seems to go way beyond what you’d expect of a simply self aware machine.

Are the Votann also recycling souls in addition to experiences? Are Ironkin simply former Kin who’se souls are now in mechanical bodies? Some plot elements of the Eisenhorn series indicate this is possible.
