Proximate Firepower at the beginning of the turn, use The Ancestors Are Watching on an engaged Hearthkin, use both AP to Fall Back, then shoot for free thanks to Ancestors with improved ballistic skill. It's 2 CP to do it, but against Legionaries or Intercessors if for whatever reason you survived a melee turn against them then this could mean a guaranteed dead marine, not counting grudge tokens.

I could be wrong but i see this team struggling to get over a 45% wr. I was hoping it would be 9 operatives hitting on 3s with a 4+ save and 3 circles of movement. Basically be an aldari style team that trades bonus movement for extra tanky traits. Right now they have less wounds the aldari which feels like a bad joke. Hitting on 4s is also just confusing, kaserkin have elite poins to make up for that and their still not great. Maybe im wrong and grudge tokens will carry a lot of weight but i have my doubts.
@CanYouRollaCrit Жыл бұрын
In my practice games they done really well due to Grudge tokens and Attack Order. +1 to hit at red is good too and with a +3 save they shrug off a lot of shooting attacks. I think they'll be in the okay 50% range. They're really good when played right

For the record, a 4+ shot with elite points is leagues better than a 3+ shot. A kasrkin's hotshot lasgun is better than an intercessor's 3+ shot with ceasless, even. The only drawback is that you don't have enough elite points to use on every single shot, but the fact that you apply elite points *after rolling* means that you don't need to use them on every shot. I will continue my one-man crusade until the KT community has internalized bayesian statistics.
@martylund8411 Жыл бұрын
@@burp114 Sure, you can dice-fix a 4+ BS with good fixing mechanics. Sisters and T'au were so good at this they had to be nerfed. Kasrkin had to be buffed. Hearthkyn are going to need some serious help. The other elephant in the room is that a 3+ Save does nothing in melee. Hearthkyn Warriors die like T'au in melee. The shame of it! On top of that, 7W is a much worse melee and shooting damage breakpoint than 8W. 2/3 and 3/4 weapons are much worse for a 7W model. The only saving grace is Kyn just don't care about the Injured debuffs between already being at the MV floor and probably auto-picking Stabilizers for everyone.

The odd mass of equipment choices is for 40K compatibility. I roll a LOT of 1’s, so for me the Ion Blaster isn’t an automatic choice. Against an elite team sure, but bolter seems better against numerous teams where you can’t rely on the enemies inflicting grudges on themselves.

Without those gimmick specialists these guys are Bad Compendium Tempestus Scions (Move 6", APL2, 8 Wounds, 3+ BS and 4+ Sv vs. 4+ BS and 3+ Sv). Votann get a Grudge mechanic where Scions can perform Free Action mission actions every turn, Take Aim, and can double-comms anywhere on the battlefield. Oh, and Scions get _real_ Plasma guns/pistols too.
