40K Unorthodoxy: Necron Canoptek Harvest
http://40kunorthodoxy.blogspot.com/2015/08/necron-canoptek-harvest.html
Tuesday, August 4, 2015. I just completed some tournaments and games leading up to them using the Canoptek Harvest. I intentionally used a LESS effective version of it in order to make them a bit more friendly in my own games, but always noting where improvements could be made. The first thing you should know both playing a Canoptek Harvest as well as playing against. Unreliable in the amounts the Wraiths put out, and the Wraiths are NOT the priority target in this army! Of the time and it became a runni...

40K Unorthodoxy: July 2014
http://40kunorthodoxy.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 27, 2014. Grey Knights in 7E, some brief notes before the 2014 codex. This got me to thinking about the codex and its "reduced power level". It appears all the screaming and crying and kicking over Grey Knights kind of died once 6E moved along. Eldar made people forget all about the indignities meted out to them by Grey Knights just months before. Pundits are saying the Grey Knight codex isn't what it once was but my question is, does it need to be? Grey Knights are at worst. Blast from the ...

40K Unorthodoxy: February 2015
http://40kunorthodoxy.blogspot.com/2015_02_01_archive.html
Monday, February 16, 2015. A pretty common retort on the numerous forums out there when someone tries to explain something to people is "well a good. That way" or the ever popular "Any good. General will take an answer for that. Surely". And so on it goes in circles. And then more circles! But what really makes a good General? I am going to start the list off here and ask you to participate if you wish to add to it. When I looked at it from the perspective of what made me. Effective it was easier. My...

40K Unorthodoxy: March 2014
http://40kunorthodoxy.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 23, 2014. After many tries and failures, starts and stops, I have become pretty adept with the Night Lords. All my initial thoughts on them were correct. 1 They can play and beat powerful armies like Tau and Eldar. 2 They can compete with high levels of success against melee oriented foes. 3 They can annihilate conventional troop OR armor based forces. So then I decided to move things around and JUST deep strike the Mutilators and Obliterators and this worked REMARKABLY well. Just as Ra...

40K Unorthodoxy: September 2014
http://40kunorthodoxy.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 24, 2014. The Scions (again, previously known as Storm Troopers or Kasrkin) have a unique weapon called a Hot shot Volley Gun that is particular to them and it fires a STR 4 version of the same deadly weapon characteristics but is Salvo 2/4 and a 24" range instead of 18". So that brings you up to speed pretty well on how they are normally seen in the IG codex. As transports they only allow you Valkyrie Squadrons (non dedicated Fast Attacks) and Taurox Primes (Dedicated Transports unl...

40K Unorthodoxy: June 2015
http://40kunorthodoxy.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 19, 2015. The Domino Dance And What It Teaches. Many tournaments have moved to fairly standardized terrain setups to maximize fairness in the match ups overall or to gain a certain motion to the game. In the typical setup there is an LOS blocker in the center and fairly equidistant runs or other major terrain features with battlefield debris strewn here and there for flavor. So let's think about this tactically because terrain doesn't get enough attention on any blogs. Think about it. Ap...

40K Unorthodoxy: December 2014
http://40kunorthodoxy.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 8, 2014. Haemonculus Coven vs. Astra Militarum Armoured Fist. Hey guys. I was dying to try the Haemonculus Coven and just had not been getting the chance to play any games with my Dark Eldar. However I finally did get my chance when a friend of mine who likes to do his battle reports on Youtube hit me up for a game. His Channel is PBMKingpin. Some of you have seen me on his other battle reports as well. Enjoy and comment freely. Thursday, December 4, 2014. This Hero led feel was so true ...

40K Unorthodoxy: Super heavy's and Gargantuan Creatures
http://40kunorthodoxy.blogspot.com/2015/08/super-heavys-and-gargantuan-creatures.html
Wednesday, August 12, 2015. Super heavy's and Gargantuan Creatures. As anyone paying attention will know, I simply do not like the inclusion of the Super Heavies and Gargantuan Creatures into the Warhammer 40K meta. This isn't borne of some unreasoning dedication to the old ways, although I have little trouble accepting people who LIKE the old ways. Why shouldn't they? Here's the thing: no one likes the idea of being a donor at tournaments. It's real bad for attendance. I say indestructible because the w...

http://40kunorthodoxy.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 23, 2014. Necrons vs. Tau Empire Battle Report! I've done a spate of battle reports lately as I've been testing an army for a friend more so to show him how it works. Enjoy And yes. I know. I need to get better at combining videos. Dang battery or my memory both crapped out on me. First: The Setup, Click this link! And now the main event:. And the final portion! Thoughts going into 7E. Friday, November 21, 2014. Well I have a few thoughts about how to use this book. So let's start there.
