Alphas don't need any new special units, we'll just take everyone else's  Real answer though, would love many, many more Ad Mech robots. Maybe some crazy flying one so we don't need to resort to dull as dirt Navy planes?

I see no reason for Iron Warriors players to complain as much as they do. That's because I have a Dark Angels army.

Thinking about legion-specific units that could be neat, I think it would be cool if Sons of Horus had the Mournival as an option for Horus to take. It definitely wouldn't be better than 12 Justaerin but it would be super flavorful to deep strike with those kids and start shithousing.

I think I've posted this picture here before, but I can't remember so I'm  ing it again I'm doing Phoenix Spears for all of my sergeants and characters. I've got a plasma Seeker squad to build, Palatine Blades with Phoenix Spears, Veteran Tactical Squad and I still have to buy a Lightning Primaris. I've got models though, and a second Calth box for alternative sculpts and weapon bits. Just gotta set down and do it.

Bulbasaur can confirm but it looks like the doors are too heavy for the spindly little hinges they come with. I know he magnetized his (before I thrashed the stupid Leviathan inside).

Dreadnaught drop pods are easier to put together than regular ones, but still a major PITA. The doors are super heavy and the hinges tiny and made of brittle resin. I had to use 7 magnets for each door to keep it shut. Even still if I shake it hard enough it's gonna come apart. The first five: Last 2:  Here you can see where the hinges snapped off on mine. I don't even know how I'm going to fix it. You'll also have to file the hell out of the hatch tops so they aren't cattywampus like in this picture:  One other note. The bottom piece is a giant chunk of resin. I had to pin it to the bottom and use globs of greenstuff in between to make sure the surfaces had enough area to grip. The pinecone thing hanging down from the middle also needed pins due to the weight and how it holds the entire thing together.. SteelMentor posted:I completely forgot about them! Lil' cute-bot. Fingers crossed they don't suck. Looking like TWO. Count them- TWO, twin linked havoc launchers! Hencoe posted:So here's a good general question to all the 30k players. I didn't think about it until you wrote this, but over the last 10 years FW has released all my childhood favorites. Things I always wanted:
They've done a lot of cool poo poo. About the only missing thing that I want to see is Dark Admech ROBOTS which they are in the process of making. It would also be cool to see where obliterators came from, even as a generic legion unit. About the only other thing I'd like to see is a resculpt of the shoebox dreadnaught.

Those loving dread drop pods. Mine is still in a state of semi-assembly. Every one I've ever seen has at least two broken door hinges. My initial plan was to use some heavy duty epoxy to fill the feeble hinge hole and then drill and pin the hatch. The magnet everything guide is a superior plan and I shall now follow it.

I was going to follow that guide, but it was so much work to fill those hinge holes and make the perfect magnet hole Ontop of that the doors weigh 1lb each so those tiny rear end magnets aren't going to hold poo poo shut

Just glue that poo poo closed and say you can draw LOS through it while conferring a 5+ cover save. Drop pods of any stripe just aren't worth the hassle.

Yup. You can have any imperial vehicle from the imperial armour books and give it a space marine crew upgrade for like +20 points (gives it BS4)
