As far as consistency in theme and branding goes, Khorne has it made. "Those Berserkers are pretty boss, now I'll just repeat them forever. Good job, Khorne, ol' boy!"

I have two main issues with the tau missilemania mech. One, guns being directly attached to the body don't mesh well with having a head. IMO, it should either have arms or lose the head--I'd lean towards dropping the head. Two, the leg pose does not work at all with that body and armament. It worked alright for the new broadside and the riptide because of their more humanoid shape and the lower mounting of their main guns--it gives the impression of a person bracing to fire a big gun. On this, the guns are mounted like a Battletech mech, but it's standing like a humanoid mech. There's a disconnect there, and it really bugs me. tl;dr I'm a nerd

I think the one second from the right will be the least popular of the set. As for Tau thing, all I see is missiles and a bit of stuff holding them up. I assume the shoulder tube is for a really big missile. Its special attack involves walking into the middle of the enemy, firing everything at once to kill whatever is in front before recoil topples it backwards to crush whatever is now behind it. Or should that under it? And in closing I have yet to see a Sigmar model that I like. Especially the chaos skull fort thing.

I actually like most of the Chaos AOS stuff. They look like they'd make great Khorne Berserkers if you just gave em backpacks and bolt pistols. The Marauder-looking dudes seem to be solid models too, I'm just not a fan of most of the characters or the big thing in the box set. The Stormcast are pretty uninspiring. Also those not-Epic not-Sisters have probably the tiniest boobs sculpted by man. I can't imagine much titillation from a 6mm model.

Would it be in line with Slaanesh to jack off to smaller and smaller models?

Cat Face Joe posted:thats why you buy sets of them Yeah, if KD got in on this it could be amazing. I mean, think of the value of having a phalanx of 40 rainbow vomiting dick monsters attended by microscopic women, many of whom do not survive the process of rearing them? This has *always* been the benefit of 6mm format. Yes, detail on each dick, (veins, sores, hair, identifying marks) is lost, but the sheer number of dicks goes through the roof. A typical 3000 pt army could be looking at a DPI2 of 14-17. You just can't get that at the 28mm heroic dick scale. Dicks.

Tiny boobs aside, I dig the guy's minis and their computer generated look. Probably not the right thread to ask , but does anyone make 6mm fantasy using digital sculpting?

That causes so much unnecessary torque!". And now I'm thinking that the Orks had it right - the dickgun is exactly what you want, so the friction on the feet counteracts the torque from the gun and... Help me. At least i have a new test question for if i ever teach physics.

When time and money allows me to try and get back into Epic I'll definitely try them out for a SoB detachment. I don't like their "Imperial" vehicles but got plenty of spare plastic Rhinos. Their faux Tao grav-tanks look pretty neat tho:

6mm is a great scale but I actually wanted things that are less obviously Epic stuff, since everyone will recognise it from 40k.

Sucks, was checking through my old list of Epic alt-supplies and apparently Steel Crown Productions (they made the Exodus Wars line) is closed. Another company that shared their webstore or somesuch has at least survived, they make OK Death Korps of Krieg men and some Forge World superheavies: http://www.troublemakergames.co.uk/did.htm
