I like how there's discussion on back to back pages lamenting how Boyz are the one true option for Orks and it's a tragedy, and that Intercessors are bad and it's a tragedy.


Boyz before toys. I’ll never not be happy with troops being the majority of an army and everything else splashed in. Just wished they had focused on removing their finecast models because that stuff is hot garbage to work with. Better luck next time!

I would hazard a guess for Sisters as well, seen some comparisons to the hatch decoration for the Taurox so it might just be some kind of vehicle for them. Don't really think it's going to be anything new IG related.

Plastic Repressor, maybe?

Are special weapons for the Boyz worth it? I guess just Big Shootas and Launchas at this point.

Everyone, please say hello to my grandpa. He drones on about his worship of technology, and has worried the family with replacing his organs and limbs with cyborg implants, but we still love him. Hahah, silly grandpa. :unsmith:

What's the deal with Plague Brethren? I saw them in BattleScribe the other day but know nothing about them and the statline just looks like normal marines?

It's quite literally just a cheaper way to bring a marine squad. They're locked at 3 models, with a melta gun. Super weird, but 62 is cheaper than 80.

I'm still hyped for the new Chaos stuff, because they were my first army in 3e, and I still play them when I can.

I just want to play despoilers of the Galaxy, not cultists+FW dreads+princes, and I'm not seeing anything to make that happen yet.

GW will hopefully do something good.

This hits the nail on the head. They had all the hype from the Black Legion novels to work with too idgi. Still waiting to hear why i'm so wrong about oblits and CSM.

What a fascinatingly unusual cock. Now, allow me to show you my collection...
I'm nearly done painting my Achilles Ridgerunner, and I'm ready to move on to my next painting target. I have a quick question first, though.

Does the Goliath Truck have a similar visibility profile to a Taurox, a Rhino or other Imperium transports? While I really like the design of the truck, it seems odd to me that the cult would have access to a plethora of identical vehicles, rather than infiltrating and amassing a collection of stolen/looted vehicles. I'd like to Cultify some others, but I feel this would be unfair if it gives me a gameplay advantage by making them harder to hit.

Someone mailed me a trashed Stormtalon Gunship years ago, and I finally completed the "salvage mission" to make a Catachan chopper. Working on an allied detachment to go with it - Raven Guard scouts modeled as up-armoured Catachan snipers.



The canopy is magnetized until I someday get a proper GW one - the recast canopy I had to use is cloudy, and I want the interior to be easily visible.



Here's a few of the Catachan snipers that will be getting shoulder armour to represent the 4+ save of Space Marine Scouts.

After about 6 weeks of slowly painting these FABULOUS BOYS, they are ready to see combat patrol. So much fun painting these guys compared to the basic Necrons. C&C welcome always looking to improve - some stuff is obvious I'm sure but it's my first paint job outside of the Necrons.

Everything about this is awesome, I think that's Stormtalon cooler than any normal one I've seen.

TBH I feel like there's something weird going on with the photography. The orange backgreound is pretty distracting and I feel like the jetbike probably looks awesome from a different angle.

Possibly SoB? They're bedazzled in fleur's.

You’re not wrong but the SoB Fleur de Lyse is much more curved, you know, French. Whereas this one is identical to the point of cut-and-paste from both AdMech and Knight models (possibly the Taurox too? Haven’t checked personally.).

Did some work on Typhus today. I haven't started the Destroyer Hive yet, but I'm getting close to being comfortable with how he looks. Not really feeling talented enough to do much more, other than attempting to highlight the horns some and make the scythe look gross. And tidy up the nurgling some.

I painted my 12th adapetus mechanicus mini last night and at this point I might as well make an army out of this and play. I pretty much want to assemble and paint all of the units available anyways. I really love this factions lore and how they look.

I collected a little warhammer way back in the day, never really played the game or read the rules but a friend of mine from high school who I still keep in touch with loves the game and has been playing since, anyway he's convinced me to get back into it

long story short a week later I have spent a sizable amount of money on little plastic men once again



Oh, I also inadvertently started a Necron army too, I made what I thought would be a joke ebay bid for some warriors and ended up getting 10 of them for £8, I kinda prefer their codex and rules since there's a lot less to keep track of, space marines seems to give you a lot of options and a lot to remember in comparison.

Warhammer eh, first game this weekend, lets hope it goes smoothly

Ps. he's an Ork player and from what I've told be he has to roll a poo poo down of dice, any tips would be welcome
