Evil Sunz - Models gain +1 movement; Add 1 to advance and charge rolls; Don't suffer Assault penalties when advancing

I'm still debating whether this is good or not. I'm still going to use it because I run as many things with engines as possible but I'm not sure if it's as good as ones like Goffs or Bad Moons.

Being able to retreat, shoot and then charge again is very strong. A detachment of Blood axe shootaboys will accompany my Goff’s if that’s the case.

That's a good point.

And if the Warboss's WAAAGH stays the same (can advance and charge) that's an extra 2" even before the charge.

Whoever turned the dumb conversation about the new Ork models into a Converted Model Post-A-Thon is a true hobby hero. So much good stuff being posted. Can't go back and tag everything but extreme shout-outs to the Skaven Marines, Van Saar Scions, every wacky Ork vehicle half-made from garbage, and of course the Beastmen Guard.

I currently have a few things on my desk being worked on.

Chaos Spawn for my jungle Daemons army. Have since been completely converted and basecoated.



Necrosphinx counts-as Maulerfiend, also from the jungle Daemons army. This is a terrible battle photo (although it did amazing in-game), and you can barely make out the sculpted vines whipping around to count as Lasher Tendrils.



Nurgle Soul Grinder for a friend, sculpting in progress.



Catachan Tank Commander, who has been fully converted since this photo and is almost 100% painted.



Stormspear Rocket Pod for my Knight, Meat Bull. An explosive melta-tipped ballista seemed in keeping with the "back-country survivalist" feel I wanted for this Freeblade. This is also almost completely painted right now.



And finally, just finished my custom Warlord for the slow-grow campaign that TheChirurgeon will be running in 2019. Thematically he's a Squat who took the Slayer Oath after letting a brood of Genestealers get past his guard patrol and kill his fellows (Tyranids eating Squats is an established 40k theme). Now he leads a band of survivors, hunting the Cult across the stars to find vengeance. Not pictured: a string of severed Genestealer, hybrid, and cultist hands dangling on his back as trophies.



Sorry for all the WIP, but I've posted most of my completed stuff before. Happy converting!

I really wish VL would do a thing like Anvil and Mad Robot do where you can pick the torsos. The flak vests she has SKU'ed up with the Broolians doesn't scream "Catachan 5+" to me, it looks too Carapacy (although they're beautiful torsos) while the Penal torsos feel perfect to me (strictly speaking these guys are Genopenitents not Genopenals but that's a distinction mostly in their own minds not that of the Departmento Munitorum).

E: Also I like her unarmored beastman legs more than the armored ones?


I had no idea the new Broolians were out, very cool! I have 20 Penal Legion dudes that I use as Cultists, plus her wheels for my Taurox.


Might have to grab these when I go back to work on my Guard army...

Neophyte heads on plastic catachans.

you don't necessarily need as much LoS-blocking terrain in Killteam because of the modifiers to hit from cover and distance. We tend to play with the sector mechanicus terrain, which gives two levels and lots of waist-high cover.

I found its less important than in 40k as even standing next to cover a little obscured makes your model much more survivable: the roll to hit takes -1 and the resulting damage is less likely to put it out of action if the cover was within 1".

But some LoS blocking is still valuable. The shop I play in didn't have a lot of true LoS blocking terrain either, but lots of tall apartment block type ruins with lots of windows etc. So for their 40k tourney they put a house rule that you couldn't shoot through 2 pieces of non LoS blocking ruins, which helped a lot.

Conversion Week Post Part Three: Old School

Here's some old-rear end pics of some of my 2nd/3rd edition Chaos Marines. I own none of these any more.



Chaos Lord

Swapped out the power axe hand with a Chaos Warrior halbard hand.



Thousand Sons

Various Rogue Trader era lead minis with the four in front having small bits and gubbinz glued on to make them more chaosy. The only pewter mini there is the Tzeentch Renegade that would be the basis for the current Rubricae style.



Daemonically Possessed Chaos Dreadnought

Dremel'd the helmet-head off the dread, pinned a Pink Horror Champion in it's place, greenstuff over the gap to make it look like he's phasing out of the sarcophagus. Third arm slung under the twin heavy bolters. Marine casualty on the base is made from a tactical from the 2nd ed starter box. Not seen from the angle is the pink horror's greenstuffed winking eye.

I didn't try any, but I still have torsos without arms so will check it out and get some pictures.
However, even the neophyte heads look a little pin-headed on the torso, and I feel iffy about how they look. I can reason they are alien mutants though.
