Also Fafnir Rann, that suave bastard.

It's a crime that Nassir Amit doesn't have a forge world model.

I hope both Rann and Amit show up a few more times in the last couple books, easy favorites. Edit: if you like CCGs, Warpforge is going into early access next week. It's the "sequel" to the Horus Heresy: Legions game that's been out for a while that'll take place in modern 40k, if you set your phone to pre-reg the game (just click install and it'll tell you it'll install once it's out) you get 10 free packs. It's cross platform so I assume you can just create an account, open the packs and switch to Steam if you prefer. Nazzadan fucked around with this message at 21:00 on Oct 12, 2023 |

What are the best, if any, transport options for Gravis Space Marines (Flamestorm Aggressors) right now? The Repulsor? I'm thinking of running the Firestorm detachment so it seems correct given their profile. Or should I just get a Land Raider Redemptor?

Mercurius posted:Depends on how many you're running and whether you're attaching characters to them. The Impulsor/Repulsor Executioner work for just three of them with no characters, the Repulsor/Land Raider work for 6 (with no characters) or 3 + Gravis Captain and Apothecary Biologis and the Land Raider Redeemer works if you're doing 6 + Gravis Captain or Apothecary Biologis. I think the Land Raider Crusader is one of the only things that can actually carry a full size brick of 6 + Gravis Captain and Apothecary Biologis since the 8 models use up 16 transport capacity. I don't think the Impulsor can carry Gravis since it doesn't have the keyword. Otherwise very good points. Beyond that, Land Raiders have assault ramps so their troops can charge immediately, which is better for melee troops. Repulsors have emergency embarkation so they can pick up troops that are about to be charged, which is better for ranged troops. Kaal fucked around with this message at 23:08 on Oct 12, 2023 |

Oh man I finished my first unit of battle sisters (minus a wash and varnish I guess) and they look so good all together imo  The light is bad now cause it's late but I'm definitely going to post some pictures cause I'm pretty excited about how they turned out. Especially considering I started the set having never really painted before!

Land Raider Redeemer is amazing, no idea why you would run the regular one. It’s better in pretty much every way.

Eej posted:The Detolf is no longer being made so if you want some do so before they run out The replacement is the BLÅLIDEN, but it's a bit smaller, only comes with three shelves and there isn't really any after-market extra shelving options. I'm actually waiting for some screws and rubber stops from Ikea so I can test an additional shelf solution made from 3D printed brackets and perspex shelves.

Crosspost from the painting thread. After experiencing how cool this model is on the board last week, I'm tempted to get two more and make a very Triple Monolith list.Devorum posted:Finished up my Monolith. Seemed like it took forever, and I forgot to use gap filler before I started painting...but I'm happy with the final product. Silent King also included as a companion to the Monolith. I'll take better pictures of it later, probably.

Detolfs and the like also pair well with acrylic riser display shelves so you can feature your guys a little more neatly.

I got one of these since it was going to code $300 just in shipping to get a Detolf: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BL757Z4H/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The built in lighting is very cool to the point that I don't really even use my overhead lighting in my office anymore. What I *am* looking for though, is some sort of acrylic freestanding shelf. Not like a nail polish rack, which I have for paints, but something that would be like and inverted U that you could place on these shelves to expand the storage.

2 armies updated and fully painted again for 10th. I've got some Death Guard to put together and paint and they'll be playable again too. Relatively, anyway. It's still the 10th ed Death Guard index  I put together some of the new genestealers tonight, they're so cool and much nicer than the old ones. They're still not even pretending to fit on their bases though, some things never change ro5s posted:I've been getting through some more Leviathan Tyranids, getting a little fancier with the bases after it was suggested here.

Lady Militant posted:Any thoughts on this list? My first idea for my first 1000 point game Bringing a baneblade in a 1k points game will be a big skew. Either your opponent has enough serious anti-tank and half your army goes splat quick, or they don't and unspeakable baneblade-related things happen to their army for 5 turns. As long as your opponent is down with a learning experience that could have a heavy skew, that's fine though! You'll be spending a lot of brainpower just remembering abilities, looking up sequences, etc. and balance won't really matter. If you're trying to learn with another newbie, I might suggest leaving the baneblade out for game 1. I say this as somebody whose first 1k point game in 10th was my Grey Knights vs. a list with a nearly 500+ point Chaos Knight Tyrant. The Tyrant marched onto the center objective with a 12" no deepstrike aura and... yeah. I did learn a lot, but I didn't feel like I was learning a real game until 1,500 points where I could ignore that Tyrant and do some proper scoring around the board with more units. 1k point games are hard to balance even without skew tbh.

https://twitter.com/warhammer/status/1713172585267986513 The teaser is out and I'm seeing Necron, Skitarii, Eldar. With the last one definitely having a very Striking Scorpion profile. https://www.twitch.tv/warhammer Stream is live in less than 10 minutes. First reveal is a new model of Imotekh the Stormlord (the one on the bottom right in the preview). And the new Codex, but we knew that one was on the way already.

Arg, I'm faced with the oldest problem, complete choice paralysis for which space marine scheme I should settle for I had pretty much decided on Raven Guard third company, and I even did a test scheme  But I just can't decide whether I actually think painting black is fun. I've done three black marines so far, and I think they look great together, but the process of getting there is kind of a pain? I had most fun painting red and green, maybe because it's more satisfying to blend colours than highlighting with various shades of grey-- and they look fine, but I just can't get as enthused about the idea of a blood angels, salamander or dark angels army as I am about raven guard. Maybe I just need to throw in some white/bone arms to mix things up. Maybe I should stop fixating on raven guard and just paint something. I've distracted myself by painting one of my fiancee's battle sisters, but it's almost complete and I can't keep putting off making a choice ;l
