BEST BATTLE REPORT STYLE I HAVE EVER SEEN!! !

[@reconbyfire73]

Thank you so much, really glad you enjoyed it!

[@Tnkrumpets]

From the first impulser death I knew how this was going to go lol. I have 8k of Sally’s, feel your pain brother

[@reconbyfire73]

Thanks for the support! It was a rough start for certain unfortunately. The new list is running a lot better though!

[@michaelvendetti2601]

Those bases are awesome! Great job on the green too!

[@reconbyfire73]

I’ll make sure to pass it along!

[@omrikkasl]

really like the format! liked and subscribed! Impulsor and ballistus turn one is rough! bad placements?

[@reconbyfire73]

Thanks friend, glad you enjoyed it! Yeah it was our first time playing on that layout so definitely a learning curve. Plus the first time with knights going through walls.

[@GlorifiedShed]

Poor Salamanders. SM really need a serious buff. Either way, great vid

[@reconbyfire73]

Thanks, really glad you liked it! It was probably just the list and some unlucky rolls this game, we recorded another game recently and SM performed much better!

[@light-wolfred741]

He k yeah! Go Salamanders! 🥳

[@reconbyfire73]

That's what I'm talking about! You'll be seeing quite a bit of them.

[@marmuhardestboss9197]

I really like your Knight Atrapos, is that a Castigator frame with printed weapons? I think I might do that, I don’t want to spend twice as much as the other Cerastus frames for a real resin atrapos

[@reconbyfire73]

Thanks friend! Yes I have two Cerastus bodies and just printed the weapons for the different variants. My advise is magnets for sure ;)

[@marmuhardestboss9197]

That’s really smart, I’ve got an Acheron that I didn’t even think to magnetize since I only ever had seen it done on questoris, abhorrents, and armigers/wardogs. In the future when I get a castigator or lancer I’ll definitely magnetize!

[@reconbyfire73]

It’s the way to go. Saves you a bunch of money and time painting. Especially when you can’t really field more than three at a time if ever. I wanted to try two Atrapos and a Lancer, but Canis is just too good. Also be mindful of posing, as that might make swapping weapons a little awkward. This is one ended up working out as it is my lancer body blocking with the shield and holding up the lance, so it just looks like he’s sprinting with the Atrapos weapons lol

[@marmuhardestboss9197]

@@reconbyfire73 that makes sense, posing is important for the Cerastus weapons… I play Chaos Knights so no Canis Rex but for us it’s more an issue where War Dogs are too good and therefore I probably wouldn’t be able to run that double atrapos list either

[@reconbyfire73]

Try out the Lancer. I think you would be pleasantly surprise. It would take some of the pressure off of your Karnivores and is surprisingly resilient, especially with the built in Diabolic Bulwark.

Pain… all I saw was pain.

[@reconbyfire73]

First game into Knights is sometimes like that, especially if the rolls aren't agreeing with you. Though the games do get better, the list changes a bit as well!

[@redspyke8227]

@@reconbyfire73 yeah. I realize I can use the Agressors but they’re only good for Immolation Protocols if they don’t get picked up. Everything else has to be anti tank. 3 Gladiator Lancers, 3 Repulsor Executioners, as much anti tank as you can get.

[@reconbyfire73]

The heavier the list the more I’m all about it, so you won’t hear me complain about it :)

[@redspyke8227]

@@reconbyfire73 valid.

[@reconbyfire73]

So are you still running Firestorm or Ironstorm instead with that list?

[@dfly27485]

Very nice

[@reconbyfire73]

Thanks for the feedback!
