MasterSlowPoke posted:What flavor? It's zany for zany's sake. It' s a rotary missile launcher, which means that it fires a ton of smaller rockets instead of one larger missile. Sure, that's cool. But why are there ammo selections? There's only one hopper per launcher, and there isn't any means of mechanically selecting which rockets it can fire, so where's the ammo coming from? It should only be loaded wwith one ammo type. And if they're smaller rockets, why are they so powerful? Why don't marine missile launchers get these turbo-vehicle-fucker missiles? If they're slightly too big for a marine, why not dreads and hunter killer missles? Why is it D3 rolls on the chart and not just 2D6, pick highest? Where's the elite tracking coming from for the anti-air missiles? Why do they all have different ranges? Is it really fun to spend 50 points on extra ammo to gently caress-harder low-save blobs or mechanicus dudes? Why even give the option to list tailor against Admech? If the Imperium has had weapons that can just turn off entire robot forces since before Unification, why is it only in this extremely underproduced tank? This is what it looks like when you roll a 1 on your Overcharged plasma gun in real life.

Now is a good time to point out that Thousand Sons automata don't have cybernetica cortexes.

Work in Progress comin' through! Ok, so here we go. This guy's obviously a work in progress, but I think I'm comfortable showing him off for now. Essentially, I took the dorky Praetor Tribune model and dangled him up to hell and back. The halberd blade, wing poles, and dong shield are all stolen from the plastic Deathwing kit. The chest angel is a little 40k decoration I cut the wings off of and shaved down, using greenstuff to fit it to the torso after removing the central eagle-ish thing. Now it's got its wings unfurled, shooting lightning everywhere. The head's an alternate from the metal Dark Angels company master. It's been lurking in my bits box for forever and it seemed fitting. I did try a helmet, but just couldn't get it to fit even by shaving it down so I moved on. The cape is a terminator chaos lord cape with a few modifications. I had to cut out the original mount and the smokestacks, then I used greenstuff to repair the fur and I tried to patch up all the holes in the cape. There are a lot of them and they still probably need a little bit of work. The cape is held on with some putty for now, it'll be kept separate for painting. Again, this guy's not done yet. I've got another growly lion shoulder pad coming from ebay; they're actually Age of Sigmar bits and I had a left one leftover from some model I built for Silver Tower. I tracked down a right-hand version of the shoulder pad in the Stormcast Paladins box. The weapon is also unfinished. I'm aiming to use the censer end of the Deathwing halberd, but I'm also trying to extend the haft of the weapon a little so it doesn't look quite as doofy. Unfortunately, no plastic grips match this one so I'm going to have to figure something out myself. Overall, I'm really happy with how this guy is coming along. The crotch protector is maybe a little too long; it actually starts at the torso on the original sculpt and only goes to around the knees. I can still alter it and move it up a few mm, but I'm pretty ok with it as-is. I'm also contemplating a grenade harness up top, between the two feather poles. The original model, for reference:

I think that's being a bit unfair, abstraction exists for a reason. Unfortunately 8th went really the wrong way to just boring. I mean even the CSM legion traits are just the same as the SM ones.

Played a 2v2 2500pt per force game last Friday. Night Lords & Blood Angles vs. Space Wolves & Sons of Horus List looked something like this: NL's: Terror Assault Terror squads in claws Curze with some raptors Predator squadron Contemptor in a pod Blood Angels: Praetor with Assault Marines Tac squad Assault marines 2x predators Sicaran Command squad with banner Leviathan in a pod Kheres contemptor mortis Sons of Horus: 3x maxed reiver squads with axes Horus Chaplain Outflanking contemptor 2x squads of Justaerin Space Wolves 3x maxed squads of grey slayer with fists Russ with a squad of Varagyr Centurion in terminator armor Gregor Fellhand Spartan Here's the deployment: Turn 2: Pods come in, everyone rushes to the create a giant manpile in the center of the table Turn 3: Stanyer the Young takes Stanyer89 outback and puts a bullet in his head. Curze woops this poo poo out of Horus and he runs away with 1 wound remaining with a glorious intervention I forgot to take anymore pictures, just imagine Blood Angels and Night Lords being removed from the table in handfuls. We got spanked. Attrition was something like 12-6. I think the final score was 3-7. Still was a fun game. Panascope showed his true colors and ran away a combat with Horus

Slow but steady on el glaiverino. I'm pretty content with how the bas relief came out, considering I'm not much of a sculptor. Now to edge highlight goddamn everything and add some checkerboard to the top of the hull.
