Had my first 40k game after trying kill team. Didn't really know how to play. 1500 my deathguard vs his blood Angel's. Killed nearly his entire army and quadrupled his points. He killed a plaguecaster of mine and a single plaguemarine. Takeaways: - always find a way to go first so you can murder the most dangerous things before your opponent can use them  - scouts are fun to kill  - making like no poo poo nearly every disgusting resiliant role is useful - yes blight launchers - the heavy blightlauncher for the bloatdrone seems better and murdering tanks than the auto hit option and the helbrute loving sucks and curses dice :[  - lord of contagion knows how to gently caress and it's hilarious with that artifact that reflects mortal wounds on saves - your son's Thomas the tank engine set makes great terrain  - put your favorite models at the edge of the battlefield to mark its boundaries. Refer to them as coach and speak through them to passively aggressively criticize your buddy.

Fashionable Jorts posted:Wild question here, does anyone have a scan of the 3rd edition rulebook? I'm trying to find a copy, but it seems to be nowhere on the internet, and I'm not going to spend over $90 to get a tattered copy on ebay. Check amazon. You can search by the ISBN which is 1869893190. I bought one a few months ago for $6.27 shipped.

Painted Acolyte no.3 to go with my Radical Inquisitor and all round good dude, presenting Alaris 'Overcharge' Albez, former plasma gunner for some Tempestus guys who really liked plasma set to 11. After a few rebuilds courtesy of the totally not chaos/dark mechanicus buddy of the boss Anakin style he's now fully  And with the rest of the gang so far  Albez, Starsky, Hutch, Bigman Lubrecht, Biggerman Ard'Ed, and H3R371C-Zeta. (two of them are place holders for Genestealer in stocks and a totally not Eldar sniper)

Death Guard Day post time: I went with a base of Screaming Skull with a loose pin-wash of Agrax Earthshade for the armor. I plan to add some streaks and leaking drips with Seraphim Sepia and then highlight with VGC Off-White. I'm stuck between doing a drybrush of it on raised areas or doing an edge highlight. The dirty iron is Leadbelcher base followed by a thinned down coating of Typhus Corrosion and a full wash of Nuln Oil. The smoke looks like garbage IRL, I did a white base and a yellow wash, followed by an Agrax Earthshade wash. Bad idea. Seraphim Sepia would have looked much better (at leas according to an example I saw on the Citadel Paint app).

Ladyguard is from Victoria Miniatures - Greatcoat legs, Dress Uniform Torso, Dress Uniform Head, and the Female Officer sprue. My kill team is essentially Cadians for Special Weapons Guard, Victoria's Rausenberg Seige Corps for regular Guardsmen (And women), and Scions that I've yet to assemble.

I looked at all the details on that Deathguard stuff and just pulled out the washes.  Recently painted some Reaper minis and the lack of little doodads and symbols was almost refreshing. Like, here’s a gallows. No skulls everywhere, no little clever details hidden in a nook. Just wood and rope and nails, that’s it. Sometimes that’s all I want!

Is the platform tall (or “deep” I suppose?) enough for the trap door to actually swing open? (“Actually” in terms of in its own world, not in “can the model actually do this?” terms.)

Probably not, but it’s Dungeons and Dragons so I’m just assuming it was built by specifically for hanging filthy halflings and gnomes, so it should be fine.

The big boy bug hugger was earlier than that. 2nd edition still had lots of ridiculous sculpts, that one included. To clarify, I love them. But they just don't fit in in modern armies.

Getting back into 40k and slowly chipping away at finishing my Custodes. Looking into allying some big marines with them for flavor, if I wanted to do successors to any chapter with a codex would I be able to use that codex or would I be having to use the generic Marine codex? Kinda wanting to do not-Space Wolves.Thanqol posted:Death Guard Day! I'm loving the color on these dudes. Awesome work.
