Which army bonus do you run?
« on: January 11, 2018, 06:45:51 PM »
So for the armies with a codex there are different army flavours such as Mars, raven guard or Biel-tan, which gives your army a bonus such as -1 to hit.

Which bonus are you rocking and what bonus are you seeing a lot of in your local play groups?

None of my armies have bonuses yet. From my local gaming group, for the folks with them, I see just Ultramarines and Altioc, and blood Angels. Lots of death guard too. Other folks in my group don't have codexs yet.

I've not seen a single person running raven guard yet, mostly as -1 to be hit is not worth loosing guilliman.

My group is all over the place.  Myself, I have my Dark Angels.  We have a Blood Angel player, an Ultramarine player, and a Salamander; with the occasional Raven Guard.  We don't have many regular Eldar players that I am able to comment on, and I think our Guard player runs his as Cadians.  Our two chaos players do World Eaters and Word Bearers.

Oh, I was mistaken.  We have one Eldar player who plays his Guardian bombs as Biel-Tann
If there is anything that recent politics has taught us, it is that quotes taken out of context can mean what ever you want them to.
Well I always liked the globals...

The main force is always Alaitoc.  But I normally have a detachment of Saim-Hann or Ulthwe.

I usually mix detachments of Alaitoc (Rangers, Reapers, Prisms, Flyers), Biel-tan (guardian and scorpion bombs. Sometimes for multiple units of spears),and Ulthwe (Wraithguard and Avatar lead Guardians).
