Can Chaos Marine ICs attach to Daemons now in 7th?

Thundercracker posted:Can Chaos Marine ICs attach to Daemons now in 7th? Normally yes, thanks to Battle Brothers. However the Daemonic Instability rule doesn't allow IC's to join a daemon unit unless they also have that rule. I guess you could argue that Daemon ICs can join CSM units, but not the other way around.

Almost finished painting my new Land Raider Crusader (just a couple minor bits that need to be touched up, but otherwise it's done). I hate the poo poo out of the metal bits on this model. TheChirurgeon fucked around with this message at 19:22 on Jun 7, 2014 |

Also it's really good to know about the psychic bits, as it's quite new to me to be thinking of it. That seems like a perfectly reasonable Greyknight 1000 point army using only the Allied chart. Do they allow you to take fortifications , if so Aegis with a Quad gun may be a consideration.

That's rad so far! Those side sponsons always look so ridiculous to me. WE NEED MORE BOLTERS. Pretty Orkish of Astartes.

Thundercracker posted:Can Chaos Marine ICs attach to Daemons now in 7th? No, Daemonic Instability completely blocks CSM and Daemon ICs from joining each other's units.

After a good experience getting some Herocliques from Ebay, i went looking through the 40k offers and, uh are people aware that charging $10 less than then GW price for things, but haven't 10$+ shipping on things isn't really a deal? At least for people who live locally to a GW or LGS that sells gw stuff.

Post 9-11 User posted:SRM FAN SERVICE That's a great looking Land Raider, Chirurgeon. I've loved seeing that force come together! Had my first game of 7th today. Feels like 6th with wackier objectives. Not a bad thing. I actually had to make a few tough tactical decisious to make sure I was scoring points and such instead of charging off into hand to hand or what have you. I look forward to more.

It's that and Australians that'll still be getting it cheaper if they pay a little over US MSRP+shipping. I've paid $30 for a single IG trooper but at least he was that super rare crouching Steel Legion dude.

Also it's really good to know about the psychic bits, as it's quite new to me to be thinking of it. Hrm. I'm not sure how I feel about the list- a Stormraven in 1k points is very risky, especially if you were looking to put the Paladins inside, as that's leaving a HUGE chunk of your points off the table. If you would entertain an alternate option: trade one of the Henchmen units into some combination of Death Cult Assassins and Crusaders (plus a Psyker, of course) and run that inside the 'Raven. Cheap, hard-hitting, Objective Secured. basically, without Draigo to Scout the Paladins forward or soak up AP2 wounds, I feel like they're gonna lose a lot of steam. They won't be useless or anything, but definitely gonna struggle some. There's some other little trims you could do to improve things, but for your stated goals I think it looks alright. (You might consider cramming Psybolt + Hurricane Bolters onto that Stormraven, though. They're super-badass.)

JerryLee posted:Just like "pro painted" stuff, they're either dumb themselves or banking on a dumb target market, and it's a tossup as to which. That's pretty much what I thought. One of the funny things about GW is that the stores have a really liberal return policy. As long as its still sealed and a current model in its current packaging, you can exchange it with no receipt. Rulebook Heavily posted:Wait until you hit the people that promise international shipping to get a larger amount of people clicking on their product and then go * Saw those too . One of the reasons I've been dragging my heels on trying to sell my nids is I have no idea what to charge for them, as they're all assembled, but only some of it is painted, some of it is the black reach guys, and there's a metal hive tyrant and ravenor. By far the worst thing in my collection for breaking off are the weapons on the War Walkers. Everytime I take them somewhere at least one breaks, most of the time 2. I've even pinned them and they still pop off. I heard that GK are coming back in a big way as allies currently, after becoming rare for a while. I can see that, and I'm totally grabbing an allied contingent when I have money again. Also blood angels because i found I have the codex and a box of death company. twistedmentat fucked around with this message at 22:29 on Jun 7, 2014 |

Accuracy of scale: 10/10 Quality of sculpting: 6/10 (Artist decided to make the bolter gigantic, though, which is dumb and unfortunate, 9/10 on accuracy of scale?) (Even has an ejector slot, wry?)

twistedmentat posted:drat, I should have done that. Welp, next time I'll remember to do that. Did you use superglue or plastic glue? If the latter you're poo poo outta luck, if the former plonk the whole thing into the freezer for a few hours - sub-zero temperatures make the moisture trapped in cyanoacrylate glue expand and turn it brittle. Won't need much elbow grease to take it off at that point. Disclaimer: Of course the freezer treatment will make OTHER superglue joints just as brittle..

Tbf putting a casing on a munition where it's completely useless, just for looks, is the sort of thing the imperium would totes do.

There are a shitload of official GW bolter models with ejection ports and even shell casings so I guess it's settled. Of course you can always go with the standard explanation of there being many different patterns of everything the Imperium makes so there are both kinds.

Jes Goodwin designed them with ejection ports. There's nothing else that needs to be said. Also, apparently those two little squares near the triangle on the back end of the gun? According to Jes' design notes in the White Dwarf that came with that Space Marine kit, those are supposed to be an ammo counter like the ones in Aliens:
