No reinforcements coming in kadex fight

[gschmidtdesigns]

its just the inquisitor's butt flapping in the wind as the boss and his crew gang up on her.

[Cy_]

yes, that'd be a real problem

[BirdDinosaur]

you have to hit kadex, you can't just run from the get go. Get him to create images and then they start coming

[gschmidtdesigns]

Did that, got yeeted, I always deal one dmg to him then run.

I think it takes ~4 turns before you start getting reinforcements. Also, are your knights wounded? I think you only get reinforcements that are not wounded. For me, my reinforcements were all my low level knights(3-4) no matter how many times I restarted the mission. The rest of my knights were wounded at the time the mission started.

It would go on till he tries to warp out AND STILL NO KNIGHTS

All knights wounded would be a campaign loss, if this turns out to be true. I mean, there is nothing you can do about that after the trigger for this mission is hit.

What I do know is that the order you get the knights in is fixed and depends on the position in the barracks. You will always get the top left slot (highest rank) first and then the one right next to it and so on. After noticing that reloading always gave me my r9 chaplain, I made sure to critically wound him before this fight and it was exactly Brother Strom, Iolanthus and Thule in the order of the barracks - every single time. Havn't tried "normal" wounding though.

Did anyone find a fix for this. I have hit him several times. No nights appear. It always say they will show up next round but they never come. I was sick all day and have put 9 hour in without another save.

I didnt even know there was an reinforcements aspect - i took the default squad, tried my best to take as little dmg as i went up to the doors (cos i thought it would transfer any health loss over, not the case though thankfully) and when looking over the abilities of Kadax, i was like 'oh ♥♥♥♥, im gna get stomped' - he didnt even touch me /shrug - after he 'ported in and sent a knight to the other side of the map, i was able to Crit him and disable the reflective dmg ability off him, then when he split, i was positioned well enuf to allow me to shoot and remove his images.

On his turn, he 'ported to the stairs behind Vakir bud did nothing else - the only reinforcements i was seeing were the plaguebearers and i just focused Kadex - was kinda relieved i went home with no injuries and no 3 dead knights, haha

So he was gone before he got a turn 2 (all on Normal btw)

I think it's a different fight against Kadex they are talking about. In the library one, you start with only the Inquisitor, and you get one reinforcement per turn.

Haha, i did piece it together early on tbf, but reading up on some guides for squad loadouts and gametips etc can be dangerous if not careful as some will immediately go into explaining boss fights with X setup etc so i tend to avoid them :p

Any fix on this? I'm having same issue. 1st attempt: only a Justicar showed up between turns 2 & 5. 2nd attempt: not a single knight showed up between turns 2-8.

edit: 3rd attempt, again no knights show up even though I hit Kadex off the bat. This is obviously a game breaking bug since you can't finish the campaign without winning this fight.
