You can't really be hoarde-y enough to deal with Paladins through wieght of attacks, so don't try to be hoarde-y. You can trade in that power armor, just don't allow a TDA gap.Heretichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14998180583172670653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5655986553938534450.post-25219785521557787322012-05-26T11:58:53.922-04:002012-05-26T11:58:53.922-04:00I was referring to the GK codex.

Not saying they can't be good... but GK can usually pull of any trick, and arguably better sometimes.<br /><br />As for cc armies. It's not that they can't beat GKs... but it's beyond an uphill battle for a lot of us, especially who utilize quality units. Huge units of expendable units don't worry to much I'd wager, but those of us in power armor (Templar :P) worry a great deal.Godfreyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01135683206541776998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5655986553938534450.post-49232228487653430492012-05-26T09:48:40.654-04:002012-05-26T09:48:40.654-04:00Wisdom, I've found that myself, but in their f...Wisdom, I've found that myself, but in their favor they are some of the best people to play against I'v ever found. They're good people, just not all are great competitive 40k players.<br /><br />Godfrey, I disagree with you on both points, that other 5th ed armies don't have just as much power as paladins (or did you mean the whole GK book?) and that CC oriented armies have no chance of beating them, especially 4th ed armies. I will only say there is one 4th ed army that has not only a good chance, but a downright good match-up against paladins, but I'll get into that next article.Heretichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14998180583172670653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5655986553938534450.post-70166011503941645982012-05-26T03:07:28.573-04:002012-05-26T03:07:28.573-04:00When I played in Bloomington most players did not ...When I played in Bloomington most players did not have an interest in improving and becoming more competitive. it doesn't surprise me that paladins are still considered overpowered there, honestly.wisdom like silencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05285703926321028278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5655986553938534450.post-59493678280598336172012-05-25T17:05:51.997-04:002012-05-25T17:05:51.997-04:00I don't think it's a matter of not being a...I don't think it's a matter of not being able to beat them. Lord knows it's very possible. I think what's just getting people is the absurd power level their units posses that even other 5th ed armies don't seem to have.<br /><br />Let alone non-5th ed.

What beats them should be able to beat other armies, and Paladins especially have weaknesses.Heretichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14998180583172670653noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5655986553938534450.post-32005162765358337712012-05-23T21:48:59.467-04:002012-05-23T21:48:59.467-04:00I hate the I win knightsI hate the I win knightsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
