Did I ever tell you my favorite color was blue?

Slimnoid posted:

The Vindicare's pillar could use a bit of drybrushing with a light grey along the edges of the stone. Similarly, the same could be done with the Eversor's quarter-pipe bit--some silver along the edges, in light drybrushed strokes, would give the impression of worn metal.

Consider also edging any gold or brass with a thin line of silver. As it is they just sort of look muddy and not really popping.

Thanks, all the gold on the characters has Runefang Silver on it, but its not showing up worth a drat in the photo for someone reason.

lol, saw some dude post on FB that his army got Squatted by the new DA book.

Which is to say his specific army build isn't an option I guess. Still funny to see the overreaction.

I have to glue hundreds of rivets onto this MDF building to make it look more grim-dark. I require some 438. This is just the outside.

No-one looks at the inside of buildings right?

Also, just how does the Imperium do internal decoration? Do they have grim-dark curtains and rugs?

Having to change tactics away from a powergamey list (or going unbound) is nowhere near the same thing as actually being Squatted, i.e. having the entire model range pulled and having all traces of the army being removed from the fluff barring the odd reference.

I'm beginning to think that the Eldar codex freak out has actually killed the Eldar codex in tournaments.

People have really underestimated the change to the Wave Serpents and, specifically, the Holo-Field. Without an AV12 vehicle to soak fire and the Wraithknight being both a LoW and also banned (which is really the problem), alpha strike armies have become completely dominant against Eldar - which are not capable of alpha strike themselves. I'm thinking it may be worth while to start taking Space Marines as an ally just to stick Wraithguard in drop pods.

Boon posted:

Yeah, and now that I think about it, I don't think it's possible because of battle brothers... I guess I'm just pissed that NOVA has banned what's essentially a linchpin of the army.

That too.

My problem is more in a NOVA setting where they handicapped Eldar and ruled out IK entirely. Im not sure I would have taken a WK, but I WOULD count on others taking it.

And for the record, I have never run more than 3 Wave Serpents in a single game, nor a Seer Council. I could have taken a Wraithknight in both the Saturday and Sunday tournaments but I did not. Im actually a pretty good player in general.

I have no idea what a bubble build is but if its a WAAC build then I'm guessing "yes".

Although it's be funnier if it was a fluffy list ineffective that got invalidated.

:hf:

Every elf I kill, in any of the vast multitude of game settings and storylines where they exist in any form, is a victory for the betterment of the world, and brings me joy. Conversely, when elves kill my bros, I get totes mad about it. It's a vicious cycle.

In other news, MY GIRLFRIEND has convinced me to take the plunge into 30k, but more like baby steps into the kiddie pool I guess. I ordered Abaddon and Loken for her to be picked up at GenCon (along with other stuff), since Loken is her favorite character. Does anyone play Sons of Horus, or have any general 30k beginner advice, keeping in mind she will always always ALWAYS be using Loken as her HQ? I have yet to decide what to do for my own 30k force, I'm still trying to decide between AdMech so I can be cool and different, Imperial Fists (my 40k marine army is Black Templars SO IT JUST MAKES SENSE YOU SEE), Night Lords (because psychotic murderers and Curze), and Iron Warriors. Thus far I have not been impressed with the Iron Warriors releases, so I'm leaning towards the first two. It is also very likely that most of our games will be of the zone mortalis variety in the future.

Also please stop fighting, you're tearing this horrible thread apart.
