Re: Considering going cold turkey on sentinels

Sentinels are stupidly good in T1. Lets consider in strengths and weaknesses. Strengths First, it's a great melee deterrent. Stomp stuns and disperses units, and the sentinel cannot be tied up. It's faster than most other T1 units and can fire while backing up, making it next to impossible to drive ...

Re: 2.5.X Balance

spotters are a counter to setup units in the same way you can say catachans are a counter to setup units. in that if you force off said set up unit in the time it takes for it to set back up or get its range back then yeah sure spotters are a counter. I would say that spotters are much better count...

Re: 2.5.0 Balance

I actually think the guardsman deployable cover is in a fine spot. It isn't used all that often, but I think it could very easily be an annoying and overpowered ability if buffed a little. I use it quite often, mainly to extend already existing cover by a block or two quickly before a fight since gu...

Re: 2.5.0 Balance

Can someone please explain the reason for 6-man HWT????? Completely out of the blue and unneeded. IG already have issues with models getting into cover and was already the Suppression squad with the most models and lowest HP/model. Why make it even smaller? In addition to what the others said, I th...

Re: Patch 2.5 (WIP)

The IG changes look awesome, I think the kasrkin changes in particular are very good. Being able to call storm troopers into the fog means I'll probably use the ability now, that's the perfect buff it needed. In regards to people saying its an easy gen bash though, not really. You could already snea...

Re: Rocket Run is bad.

I'm a mid level player. Rocket run is totally acceptable, and pretty good.

Re: Any opinions on Kasrkins?

Kasrkins are good. They're underused. I typically get them if the enemy has an abundance of AV or I only have one IG squad for whatever reason. Grenade launcher kasrkins are my favorite, the constant source of knockback can easily remove an enemy unit from the fight. Kasrkins are a more versatile ch...

Problems with high framerate in menu

My video card is in the process of dying, and sometimes crashes when put under a particularly heavy load. I'm able to avoid it except for the Dawn of War II menus. It seems there isn't a framerate limit, and in the menus it gets as high as 1400. If I don't get into a game within a few minutes it cra...

Re: IG trouble.

Grey Knights are an easier match for IG now that they aren't all heavy infantry melee in T1. As for the operatives, catachans outclass them in just about every way. They detect, have more health, and do a little more DPS. They can't satchel, but can lay down their improvised explosive which is bette...

Go to the public custom games in the elite mod. There is no matchmaking that I know of.

Re: [Newb L2P Topic] General Questions

I main as IG. Grey Knights are one of the more difficult races to fight, if they go full melee, as the IG imo. I've worked with a few different strategies to beat them. I play with the Inquisitor usually. I've had the most success with this: x2 guardsmen, 1 sentinel. Stomp on sentinel. Crossbow pist...
