Buy one and cast a bunch of copies yourself, then you can become your own Chinese recaster.

The Sanguinary Guard ones might work, if you can handle taking care of some blood drops and stuff.

OK so Briscon and Operation Molten Storm all wrapped up after 2 days. Was a really good time and the whole venue was packed! Here are the some of the army pics for some sexy painted hams porn, wish I had taken more           Traitors took the planet in the end and I walked away with most points total after 1 draw and 4 wins. The whole event and all plethora of other things happening at the con was really awesome as well as the cool vibe from all the peeps there. The lads organising the event took something like 15gigs worth of photos so hopefully those will get posted somewhere soon. Can't wait for the Oblivion Eye of Horus podcast Centurion event in a month! pure infantry smashing each other apart and maybe the podcast lads can call me out for a rematch after beating them this weekend

BULBASAUR posted:Tell us more about your army brochacho Can do buddy, Been building a Traitor Mech army for about a year now. Originally went full retard Scoria Cyber spam but yeah..... its mean as hell. Really have fell in love with a not cyber list recently and will be building both a pure thallax and a pure mymidon army. The list I took to Briscon was whipped up in about two weeks as I hadn't decided to go until the last minute! I punched out the majority of the big items painting in a long weekend and its only table top ready and still has lots of detail to go. So this was the list: 1x Crazy melee Malagra Magos with jump pack and 4 Cyber-Occularis. The Cybers were amazing granting interceptor and stopping infiltrators, plus late game I used them as charge blockers and funneling enemy movements. Seriously jet packing these little fuckers right up in peoples faces forces them to change their movement/charges/shooting. You can absolutely cause whole deathstars to divert charges or movement in tight spaces because these little fuckers get in the road. 2x Thallax squads with ferrox and chain blades 1x Ursarax with half and half claws and fists 1x Hoplites in a Traiarios. These are disgustingly good.......like really mean and was the first time I had run them, will only be taking 10 man units after this event because haywire and BS5 + hitting on 5s or 6s with overwatch was cruel. 2x single units of Vultarax. Also the first time I had run these as I literally just painted them. They were only good in the last two games mostly because people were rolling allot of 4+ saves against them because I was trying to wreck Knights or Leviathans 1x Myrmidons, these either got focused down immediately or really reaped some body counts. I ran them with volktes and a irradiation engine for maximum marine killing. 1x Atrapos, this sucker rolled a couple of ones every match and hurt himself allot but also dropped 4 clutch vortexes. I used him and the bees for distractions mostly as people would just panic and focus on them hardcore. Mostly they died but its worth it if your sitting on the objectives at the end of the match and the opponent is not. Had lots of fun and will be really keen for some more events this year, can do some more trip reports if you goons want? have some pics of the army     DJ Dizzy posted:Ah. 30k. Transports: The Game.

That's a picture of our very own Killer_Bees! beating Eye of Horus Tim. Admech on Admech action at it's best. Dark mech best mech. You took a solid list and I'm not surprised you did so well. Cyber-Occularis are really strong right now since most marine armies are taking deep striking or outflanking infantry choices (vet spam, tee hee). Admech also has the easiest access to haywire in the game. It is interesting that the aussie 30k scene has become probably the best in the world. It must have been combination of the crazy import fees on regular GW products and the large number of poisonous animals that made it happen. Here in our northwest league of 6-8 people the meta is very infantry heavy. There's another group up here that another goon on here plays with which seems a bit more armored up.

Glad I magnetized the sponsons on my sicaran venator for the hell of it. If you can fire sponsons on tanks at -1 BS instead of snap shots in 8th, that would make the lascannon sponsons on this thing actually useful.

Stop cupola'ing those balls and instead hang on to your butts, because Forge World is about to announce how they will poo poo everything up:quote:Since the new edition of Warhammer 40,000 was announced, we’ve had questions about the future of the Horus Heresy game. Warhammer 40,000 models from Forge World, as we already know, will get full rules for the new edition, but what about those games set in the bloody time of the Age of Darkness?

They're going to go back and reissue books 1-7 one a time until they're all up to date. This will push back all other projects, including Angelus, by at least 3 years. Seriously though, I'm expecting the announcement to be nothing more than "Hey, we've got updated red books coming down the pipeline. Just hang on a bit." And then we don't see the books for at least a year.

I have a 40k SW army and I fondly recall the days before wolf riders and poo poo where my entire army could upgun their squads better than any other marines and then they had counterattack against charges. My buddy played a berserker heavy chaos list and just couldn't win because he'd set up charges, do the right things and then get blasted apart by bolter fire and then loving mauled in combat by a bunch of my regular dudes. Good times.

Sold all my used rulebooks for MSRP or higher in less than 5 days. Only thing that I sold at a loss was my 7th edition rulebooks, but 40 bux for soon to be dead rules is just fine with me.

I want to buy a massive alpha legion force but when I hit the check out change everything to the ultramarine equivalent, somehow get overcharged for it and have it get lost in the mail. Just as planned.

Seeing more impressive yellow mans can only be good. I was more thinking about the color scheme on the dude on the left here:  The 'black' being basically a brushed dark steel color. Pure yellow sounds to me like a good way to see if I can't commit seppuku with an airbrush, and this way I can more or less just dybrush the mini bodies and then paint the shoulders yellow. Edit: I quite like this Unification Wars-era scheme:

Thinking of a black prime, a Leadbelcher drybrush, a lighter Ironbreaker drybrush, and then a wash/spray of Nuln Oil. Possibly followed by a second light drybrush of Ironbreaker in spot areas. I could just spray the shoulderpads yellow, paint the rims, wash and highlight a bit, and glue them on afterwards. Either way, it'll be a nice change from loving white armies. My Death Guard, my friend's Mechanicus, another friend's Menoth.. shoot me already

I hate that white either looks amazing or terrible. I was traumatized by a local players Black Templars (with white directly over black) and part of me never recovered. Doing Emperor's Children along with World Eaters at least let's me produce something at a good tabletop standard that is not an insane amount of work.
