User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Money wise there really is no cheap Warhammer 40K army, a lot of the prices reflect what the units do in the game. To be try to be smart with your money an army such as Daemon Hunters are a good choice because the points cost in the is so high that you won't have as many models out on the field.

Acute Senses is a different name for Night Vision. Both are the same rule, and both do the same thing. It allows you to re roll the test to determine your spotting distance, in inches, when Night Fighting is in use.

What tactics can you recommend for Eldar against Dark Angels?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Answer Talos and Sniper squads (ten warriors with 2 Dark Lances) are sometimes not recommended by pro-players but in against Eldar they are pretty effective considering how cheap they are and the fact that eldar like to spray fire and blow up all your raiders. They have lots of spray.

Raiders are the heart of any army but keep the previous point in mind.

How do you get paint of a warhammer model?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Answer

A number of people have reported satisfactory results from soaking the models in various fluids then scrubbing with a toothbrush or gently scraping the softened paint away. Many other people report that most solvents soften the plastic as well as the paint. Personally, I've always found that a model cleaned in such a way still has paint in recessed areas which obliterates much of the fine detail.

How do you play warhammer 40k tyranids?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Basically you use dice and tape measure to move around your troops and shoot. Different guns, models and tanks have different stats so you have to read a codex. There are so many rules and I can't tell you all of them so you will have to buy the rulebook.

What does you stand for in warhammer 40000?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If you mean what do you fight for, it depends on what army you are playing.

Space Marines, Imperial Guard, and The Inquisition are fighting in the name of the God Emperor, fighting to protect mankind.

The Tau are fighting for the Greater Good.

The Eldar are a dying race and are trying to prolong their life.

The Dark Eldar are basically pirates

The Tyranids are feeding the Hive Mind, doing as it commands, always as it commands.

The Orks are looking for the best fight. "Cuz dem humies ain't got much fight in 'em but we's kill 'em all da same"

And the Chaos fight to control everything for the various God's they serve.

When are new Tyranids coming out?

Asked by Wiki User

Soon, along with 4 new models including a plastic Trygon.

For a preview of these models go to page 61 in WD 365 and look closely.

How do you work out a units points value in warhammer fantasy?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Answer

To count the points you will need the reference section of your army's Codex. Then go through and add up the given values for your models selected. For example, you field a tactical squad with a lascannon and plasma gun. First you take the points of the tactical squad then add the number of points to it that the lascannon, plasma gun and sergeant upgrades cost and then you can add 5 extra points if you have a heavy flamer for any character, vehicle or turret.

What armor save do Warhammer High Elves get?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Most High Elves get a 4+ or 5+ saves but some troops have better saves. Cavalry can have 2+ saves and Phoenix Guard have a 4+ Ward save. High Elf Archers get no save unless you give them light armour for a 6+ save, Shadow Warriors have a 6+ save as well. Characters also vary depending on what armour you give them.

What sort of dice do you use in warhammer 40k?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It really depends on the kind of army you're fielding. But mostly, it's your choice. If you have an army that has low points per model (ie. Imperial Guard, Tyranids) you may want to have lots of dice. And even though this should go without saying (and yes, for you veteran players, this does happen) Do not play with only one die. With one die, you'll end up looking like the worst kind of noob to the game, and that's a stupid noob.

How many points is a space marine bike squad worth?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

You must take 3 models as minimum, 1 Sergeant and 2 Space Marine bikers, which costs 90 points. You can then add up to another 5 more, which costs 25 points per model. An attackbike, of which you can take one in a bike squad, costs 40 points.

How do you read a codex?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The most obvious suggestion is the best here, pick it up and read it start to finish. It shouldn't take too long, as there is a lot of stuff you can skip upon first reading (Background, technical stats) which you will only need later. Then once you've done that you'll have a good idea as to how your army's codex is laid out, so you know where to look for information when you need it.

How can you tell that a Space Marine is a Sergeant?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Not entirely. But it is unwise to leave a squad without a sergeant, for they can benefit their squad greatly with power weapons, iron halos, terminator honors, and other valuable wargear. Oh and they also have a better amour save so its a win win :)

How do you paint Warhammer Cadian shock troops?

User Avatar

Asked by IainHenry

Honestly, however you want, there's no set scheme to go off of. Probably the easiest way would be to base coat them in either black or white, depending on your overall color idea. For pewter models wash them and prime them so the color will stay on then spray your base coat. My personal method is to go from the color I use the most to the color I use least. Like if I was making black tyranids with red highlights, I would base black, use the red on the spines and mouth, gun metal on the joints bone white on the teeth and where ever else, lime green as details such as eyes & etc. Hope that helps!

Where can you buy a Warhammer Table?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Answer Games-Workshop specializes in miniatures. You'll find most everything there, from Warhammer to Lord of the Rings. They have retail locations all over the US and UK, some are in malls. If you can't find one around you, hit their online site. Type in the name as entered above.

Answer Most independent stockists raise their prices, to make a profit on the GW workshop products, that they themselves purchase from GW. It is only worth buying from the if there isn't a Games Workshop store close to you, as the other option requires paying shipping on online purchases. Answer

Anywhere that is a true hobby shop, it may also benefit to do vast research on the internet because the investment in any one army is so great, it is imperative that you find one best suited to you.

Can two warhammer armies work on the same team?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Most can but usually they have to both be on Imperium or Xenos for example Space Marines can't ally with Tyranids, but on some occasions Xenos can ally with Imperium. The Warhammer 40k Rulebook outlines which races may ally with each other.
