Could any US goons help me out? I've got a friend travelling over to the states soon, who's offered to pick things up for me, and I also want to pick up the new paint range without paying ten million New Zealand Bux. My original plan was just to get it shipped from the UK, but this way might be cheaper since it cuts out the shipping cost.

Could you guys please share any good US based online stores that offer good discounts on citadel's paint ranges? I'd really appreciate any suggestions.

The orange is a bit strong for my taste, but you're getting better results than most of the people I see using Contrast.

It's a pretty stylized look which I think works well.

Has anyone tried using Contrast on AdMech robes?

I'm going to grab some Akhleian Green to use on some Skitarii robes so I will report back on this.

In the meantime, I have a primaris librarian. The paint job on his head sucks and I want to take it off and redo it. It's been glued down with citadel glue. Is this a thing I can accomplish or am I hosed?

I pry plastic glue off all the time, it's generally doable but sometimes there's some damage done. I use the grandpa edition red tube plastic cement, though.

Super glue? Freeze it and it should get brittle enough to snap off.

I’ve drilled small holes to pry stuff off before.

Not admech specifically, but I haven't seen any application of contrast on flatish cloth similar to admech that doesn't look like garbage.

Plastic glue melts the two surfaces together into one. Freezing wont help with that, your best bet is some careful cutting and pulling.

I'll probably post a thread in the SA mart but I'm looking to offload my Stormcast Eternals & Death Guard. Figured I'd post here first to gauge interest. For the DG I've got:

DG half of Dark Imperium
Daemon Prince
2x boxes of Plague Marines (maybe 3 actually)
1x Plague Marine Champion
1x Blightlord Terminators
1x Deathshroud Terminators
1x Foetid Bloatdrone
1x Mortarion (assembled, but a wing fell off :suicide:)
3x Myphitic Blight Haulers

I think that's everything, but I'd have to double-check when I get home if anyone's interested. Some of it is NIB, some of it is painted, most of it is unprimed. Given Morty's state he / everything would be fairly cheap, but I haven't settled on a price yet.

I would even throw in the Gellerpox Infected half of Kill Team: Rogue Trader.

e; is there any market for paints? I've got dozens and dozens of P3 / Vallejo / GW paints that I'd prefer not to simply throw away.

I break off plastic glued stuff all the time. The solvent bond is almost always weaker than the surrounding area.

Are you using the helmet or bare head? I have a spare bare head if you need it. Actually I might have both available.

Managed to get it off! Took a bit of work but it's free and not too dinged up. I'll paint it separately and put it back in later.

I might be interested in a box or two of Marines and a pair of the Blight Haulers depending on the state of them/price. (I assume you're in the US?)

Editted my post but yes, I'm in the US. I think 1 Blight Hauler is painted, 1 is assembled, and 1 is in the box still - but it might also be assembled. I'll check when I get home. That said I don't love the idea of piecing everything out because I know some of it will just never move. I do have PMs so we can talk about it more though.

There has to be a typo in there. The Repulsor Executioner is 24 PL. The regular Repulsor is only 13. Hell Guilliman is only 15.

This is an interesting design decision...





Reavers are gonna lose damage much quicker with a 5+ save against large blast markers, while I assume 3+ is the best possible save normally.

Titans also have to pay extra PL to take different guns.

So Primaris Eliminators are listed with a gear option of “las-fusils” - hope that’s soon, Primaris need a replacement for Devastators. Having a viable, relatively cheap squad of lascannon-esque Primaris with 2 wounds each, a 1+ armor save in cover, and access to the Phobos-only psychic buffs from the Shadowspear box would do a lot for Primaris-only armies.

edit: I assume they lose the ability to target characters with those because lascannon sniper units would be hilarious

Apocalypse power levels have nothing to do with 40k power levels. The executioner is likely significantly more powerful than the normal repulsor.

its also not so much that an executioner is twice as expensive so much as it is that the repulsor is cheap as hell in apoc, one costs as much as 10 intercessors.

The Heavy Laser Destroyer can reach across whole tables and sound tanks on 4+. That's the best i've seen scrolling through the datasheets. Also if the Executioner doesn't move, it gets to fire 4 shots with it.

Those points are well deserved.

Glad to see infantry squads can still take special weapons, etc.

Honestly, I can see playing this over regular 40k for 2,000 point games. It addresses the biggest issue with 40K, how loving long a game takes.

The only things that wound tanks better are on titans and superheavies, and they mostly have significantly fewer shots. In a game of blowing up knights and titans the executioner looks extremely good.
