Scribe Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Victory! 9K Plasma Cannon Overload thanks to Flint's tip got a Blue Boys squad through the last mission. Plus some epic shenanigans but thats what games are all about. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilofix Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 So after finishing, does it just open up the other difficulty levels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scribe Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Yep, and you get more ][ rewards for those levels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New squaddie has an apropos sobriquet http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/xq90/673/K0voFS.jpg Also found another Rank IV weapon. Unfortunately my space wolves are both tacticals... >_<http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/xq90/905/AdLUj1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scribe Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 Even more jealous! I've got a IV Power Sword, and Plasma Gun, and...toxin grenades? :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flint13 Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 ^ +10 points to the first bro to find a Phosphex grenade :d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisitor Eisenhorn Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 I just picked this up. It is glorious. Are there any chapters besides ultras, blood and wolves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scribe Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 No, I'm not sure if that will ever change, but thats it for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilofix Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 ^ +10 points to the first bro to find a Phosphex grenade :d Phosphex doesn't exist in the game but there's a Toxic Grenade and also aChrono Grenade that might give you 2AP but also has a 5% Chance to Crit you for 10000% damage.

Scribe Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I think I sold that Chrono one. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flint13 Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I think I sold that Chrono one. :/ I dunno, with the way his game rolls a "15%" chance for a plasma overheat I can only imagine how often that 5% instant death would crop up ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scribe Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Isnt that the truth, its far to common for me to run plasma actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisitor Eisenhorn Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I've been rolling through this game briskly; I have to say, why can't GW make a tabletop game this fun? Geez. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilofix Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Anyone notice that the Ultramarine ability that is supposed to give your+1AP when adjacent to two other folks also gives you that AP when next to just one? Also, does anyone know if Melta actually pierces Armor (like on a Tyrant Guard)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scribe Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 I dont think it does, I think they have a huge % damage reduction. Speaking of, my Ultra CC Level 3, now has 30% damage reduction and with a full squad of Ultras, is at 300 HP, hes tanking well now as I work through the Veteran levels.

Flint13 Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 ^ Ah, see I went a similar way with a CC tank, but mine is a Space Wolf with Brawler (-30% melee damage) and Strength of Wulfen (+30 max health). While not quite as accurate as a squad of Ultras, he's up to 380 health ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scribe Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 Wicked! And yeah hes working well so far, I let him lead with his face on the level cutting through the Hive Ship, and he made it with ease, parry/retaliate killing things with 0 AP. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flint13 Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 "Marine, reconnoiter that shady access-way face first. There could be 'stealers lurking." Love it. Also a great investment is something I just found on my Blood Angel Assault; he had "Dodge" which gives him a flat 15% to do so and "Posture" which gives him a 10% dodge bonus for every enemy killed that round. If only he got Brawler, he'd be the best melee marine ever. Currently saving up for Triage which is expensive but "recovers 5% max HP for every adjacent marine." Seems like an awesome tank skill Are the available skills for each marine random besides the couple of chapter based ones? *EDIT* Update! Remember when I couldn't find a silly Apothecary? BAM! http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/xq90/907/yvOZsu.jpg Team is starting to look pretty gnarly :D http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/xq90/538/CoCw0h.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scribe Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 The jealousy...it burns! I think the skills are chapter/class based from what I've seen, with the most advanced skills (5th AP, I wants it) reserved for the elites. My team is nowhere near your levels of righteousness, I will need to atone for that after ETL. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilofix Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I give my Space Wolf Assault IV the +2AP (but no attack) and bonus to Counter Attack chance and damage skills. Then equip him with a Relic Power Fist and the 100% Immunity for 1 Turn Purity Seal. Then run him straight into a pack of 3 Guards and a bunch of critters, and watch them kill themselves as they CC my Marine which causes him to Counterattack.

Scribe Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 It seems I have been rewarded for my new project, as I finally got a IV, the Sanguinary Guard. :] Now to grind up his Accuracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadian_shock Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Any tips on defending the Vortex bomb? I am struggling using Lascannon, 2x Powerfirst, Plasma Cannon and a Bolter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilofix Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Use a Grav gun to slow down both the little mobs and the 'bosses'. The only thing it doesn't work well against is the Carnifex. Against the Carnifex I think the others have used an overcharged Plasma shot but my techniques is to use a Assault Marine with IV Power Fist and Immortality Purity Seal.

Scribe Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 If its on Normal, I would drop the fists, they take too many AP when 1 will normally kill a bug. May drop 1 of the Dev's as well, as I found Bolters did well in that mission. Overcharged Plasma net me a win on the last mission, as I was getting stomped by the series of encounters.
