A friend of mine bought this kit when it went for $300 back in 2012 here in Australia. Unfortunately he died before he could get to build it, and I inherited the kit. It's built and painted now, sitting in pride of place on my shelves. He'd be delighted to know it finally has decent stats. Vale Chris.

Dude, I preordered the Custodes box at my LGS and I was so expecting the Praetors to be getting a buff, like knock 25-30pts off both the Praetor and the Shield Captain on Jetbike, a new rule, better statline, something and we got nothing. EVERYONE was expecting the Stompa to be a joke, something that Ork players were getting because it's an easy way to fill out the box and it's not gonna be viable competitively but it'll be funny to walk up with your army and be like "Oh yeah, here's my army, and here's a hunk of plastic that saunters up the board." Little did we know, the OPPOSITE was gonna happen. Praetors weren't touched, they didn't even have a detachment that specifically focuses on like advance and charge or anything, whilst the Stompa got benefitted from the new box and codex so well. It's honestly really funny because I was like "well, I'm gonna have a full set of Praetors and Jetbike Captains, so it's gonna be really fun walking up to my LGS and dropping them all on the table, because someones gonna sit there and die laughing as they charge in, kill a bunch of shit, and die to the seven other units that are swarming them with like 10 models each"

I remember the stompa mob in 9th edition where you could designate a Stompa as your warlord and you could give it a shield for invulns. There was also a Stompa teleporter stratagem that cost 4 CP so you could deep strike your stompa. But you had to have 3 Lords of War for that detatchment, and of course any kind of refined anti tank would wipe you off the board.

There was a character stompa in an old imperial armour that was a carrier for deffkoptas. It was your warlord, I think, but if it died, it would spawn a deffkopta that would be your warlord representing the mekboss getting out of dodge before his stompa went boom

The transport ability lets the stompa poop out a unit (maybe a full grot squad) on an objective turn 1/2. But you can also carry a screening/anti screen unit to save yourself from getting caught up on chaff
@whichDude6 ай бұрын
What is Stompa going to get caught on as far as chaff units? Most armies will only engage with its melee once it has been weakened enough to be in kill range. Orks, World Eaters, and Custodes are the only armies I can think of that will actively try to charge the Stompa as their main way to focus it.

It needs the fight on death strat from the index detachment. It's essential. In my last game Canis Rex killed me so I fought on death and killed him back.

The unspoken downside to such big models is that the size prevents it from maneuvering on the battlefield due to cluttered terrain. I'd love to throw a Baneblade on the table now and then but the GW obsession with melee over shooting forces these big models to sit at home.
