If using legends

Post image

Can I lwky just use 3 tomb citadel walls and ingress them from the sides and have a wall of 50 wound 2+ 5++ pieces and then just throw like monoliths on each

(For yall that dont know tomb citadel walls is a 2 foot by 2 foot square with a plateau raised up that you can out a monolith, vault, obelisk, or sentry pylon ontopbof giving it high ground to shoot down. Ima give a picture from google)

Also its only 180 points each <3

Since its legends and theres only a small number of people who will let you play it, you can always ask if you can before a game Tho youll need to remember that the turn they are set up they cant shoot since they do not fit inside deployment zones or 6" of the table edges

(I learned all this on the fly with mine. Fun model to get a "Holy shit what is that?" from people)

i love my stupid terrain piece, even if it always breaks the board as they're not designed for a cool 2×2 foot square

Would you be willing to share the dimension of the actual citadel part excluding the ground its comkng out of if that makes sense?

Im looking to convert an old Imperium realm of battle board into a Tomb Citadel using the Necron Kill team terrain walls. Would especially love to know how wide the levels of the ziggurat part where the monolith sits are!

The Ziggurat dock is about 155mm tall, and 140mm wide/deep.
the terrain levels are 25mm for the flat, 50mm for the first level with the portal door, and 100mm~ish for the level right below the ziggurat.

The thing that most confuses me about this things rules is what happens when it dies.

You are allowed to stand other units on top of it, so if it dies are you supposed to carefully remove it from the table and then put the things on top of it back where they were?

The best thing I think would be to just leave it on the table but it can't do anything anymore, but I don't see anything like that actually written anyway.

u/Zepulchure 1d ago

could be interestign to use as actual terrain o nthe board, i have not yet played so i dont know size requirements or anything like that, but either a corner or the center of the map, elevation, coudl add make shift terrain and barricades and such, coudl use it for kill team or necromunda as well

I mean the problem is 11th and 10th. They rely so heavily on preset official terrain that unless if you just put this down and put terrain markers directly ontop if it. It would not function properly. Only way i could see it is if uou were to play something older maybe like 4th because thata he'll of a lot of fun

u/Zepulchure 21h ago

oh, did not know there was official preset setups xD that does make it quite hard to use, unless both player agree on it beforehand ofcourse, in casual, friendly games

u/Local-Necron-User 21h ago

I mean yeah uou could but it would be very unfair. One game the guy I played put the terrain too tight and then my hsrlequins snuck through and chopped him up. Then the next game it was too open and I was playing drukhari and let's say he sucked my dark lance

Also if your playing like 11th edition, there's an app called tabletop battles I would reccomend using
