Finally finished the 30 or so tacticals that I started months ago. I decided not to go with the marble base, it looked great but detracted from the model. After a while I just fell into using astrogranite debris combined with agrellan earth, then painted VMA black grey.



Sorry about the lighting, I did try.

I used a Necron staff because I figured it's a good symbol of their pre-heresy attitude: the desire to mess with things they do not have a full understanding on. It's like something this little dude "found" and figured it worked pretty cool.



Sick Sons. Now your tactical blob is ready for February!

Put me down for a Primarch. I haven't decided which one yet, but I've got most of 2017 to decide before I hastily panic-paint him on December 31 :v:

Just like school, even if it is ill advised, if the cool kids are doing it I am in.

I resolve to paint and base the apocalypse miniature from the other seven sins game to be a lord of war daemon of the ruinstorm ( I will decide which one when I have the book)

Like the cool kids at school you are using adult terms that I don't truly understand (circa '91 I did not get the difference between dildo and condom thanks to a stupid Adrian mole gag. Fortunately due to my outright nerdiness the practical difficulties of such confusion never manifested) can I clarify that toxxing basically means a ban if I fail?

:toxx:

E: SAClopedia has enlightened me. I guess it is up to the internet to educate me about condoms and dildos as neither of those terms were there.

Would it be okay if I changed my toxx to Alexis Polux? I know he's not a Primarch, but there's no Dorn and the Crimson Fists are my favourite post-heresy chapter.

just a quick check: did everyone who write a haiku want in on the typhon? the entries had varying levels of seriousness so before I figure out the winner (hint it might be random I'm not sure) I want to make sure who was actually interested

I picked up the Burning of Prospero box a while back at a steep discount so one of my coworkers convinced me to sign up for a 1k Zone Mortalis event in about 2 months. Problem is I haven't played 40k since 2nd edition, so I'm trying to put together an army in time while also reading a lot of rules. I came up with this borrowing heavily from some other lists with some of my own ideas:

quote:

+++ Thousand Sons Zone Mortalis (1000pts) +++
Rite of War: Chosen Duty

+ HQ +
Legion Centurion: Librarian [Artificer Armour, Melta Bombs, Power Weapon, Psychic Mastery Level 2, Refractor Field] (155)
Legion Centurion: Delegatus [Artificer Armour, Melta Bombs, Power Weapon] (95)

+ Elites +
Contemptor-Cortus Dreadnought [2x Dreadnought Close Combat Weapon with inbuilt Graviton Gun] (165)
Legion Terminator Squad [Cataphractii Terminator Armour with Combi-bolter and Power Weapon, 4x Legion Terminators, 1x Heavy Flamer] (185)

+ Troops +
Legion Veteran Tactical Squad [9x Legion Veteran Space Marines + Sergeant, Veteran Tactics: Marksmen, Legion Vexilla, 2x Meltagun] (200)
Legion Veteran Tactical Squad [9x Legion Veteran Space Marines + Sergeant, Veteran Tactics: Marksmen, Legion Vexilla, 2x Plasma gun] (200)

Is this a decent/fun/legal list that won't get completely stomped? I'm fully expecting to lose, just hopefully not from before the start of the game.

I don't think anyone would say no to a typhon. Other than Stanyer89, he explicitly told me he doesn't want it. :v:

I would love a Typhon, but I didn't actually write a haiku, so do with that what you will.

But I'll tell you what I will do:
:toxx: for Mortarion to be bought, assembled, and painted by the end of 2017.
