7th Ed 40k Comp WIP

I agree with Steve, comp should be fairly loose - stopping just the maddest of shit. If two players agree to something else beforehand that is fine of course but with only a few members having played a few games I think it would be wise to be cautious with the comp hammer before actual experience tells us otherwise.

For reference, Imperial Knights are not Lords of War funnily enough, as they have their own Codex and loose FOC if you wanted to run an army of nothing but. Otherwise, they are a secondary detachment consisting of 1-3 Knights.

Most Lords of War are currently in the Escalation Book (that giant Khorne Tractor, SM Thunderhawk, Imperial Baneblade, Necron floating ghetto blaster etc), and future books will have additions.

Agree that comp should be loose to start and then managed once we have the benefit of several games worth of experience. The Psychic phase is actually pretty balanced, the only pain being cheap WC Invisibility as Ol mentions.

hey guys whats the comp as it stands? speaking with different guys last thursday a few were saying no triplicates outside of troops and others were saying no duplicates.

Just my two bits, IMO 12 magic phase dice is more than enough for a fun game anymore than that and one person just owns the magic phase and can shut down the other players spells. I think you should allow some lords of war but nothing that can ignore cover (D weapons/Hellstorm), have anything above a 5" blast or fly. I honestly think no triplicates is better than duplicates because personally (nids) need survivable synapse and that comes from elites and HQ, if I can only get one then that's gonna suck.

The Old comp was no triples outside of troops, but as the new edition is so new, I dont think any comp has been decided on yet..

If in doubt revert to the old OG Comp for every game, 'dont be a d**k comp'
