So, when it comes around, I'm gonna get the Imperial Veterans pack. I'll have no need for the bomber, and I'd prefer to trade the red defender for a regular one. Will this be the right place to ask?

I love the Empire because they get kickass ships, and poo poo like Peter Cushing and James Earl Jones. And the TIE/D Defender is boss as hell. I want to get a pair of Defenders and Darth Vader to relive that time I hunted down that traitor Zaarin in TIE FIGHTER. loving good times, man.

So, Maarek Stele, Delta Squadron Pilot, and Darth Vader. Can a workable list be made of those three? I want to relive my days of absolutely slaughtering Zaaron's traitorous rear end. Edit: I dont play the game, so I don't know point costs or whatnot, but Stele in a TIE/D with Ion Cannons, some laser cannons, launchers, and tractor beams, overkill?

So, bought my first of three Defenders, and as soon as I start to put it together, the goddamn stand snaps off inside the TIE. I suppose it kinda helps, since I'll be repainting it in white, but how do I fix it, besides drilling and replacing with a brass rod?

kingcom posted:Yeah send them a email, preferably with a picture attached and/or proof of purchase and they are usually super good about sending you a replacement or compensation. FFG has legit solid CS, they are the anti star citizen imo. Even if I underestimated how loving brittle the stands are? TheHoosier posted:GW will never die. They probably make decent money off licensing their IPs to competent companies like FFG and Creative Assembly. Not to mention the hardcore 40k players who double-down on everything and gobble up every piece of poo poo decision GW makes. I'd love for someone else to take over the 40k property and turn it into something more enjoyable/less wallet-shattering. FFG makes a better 40k product than GW will ever make. That said, I still will occasionally buy old rear end Tyranids. I have something like 19,000 points already, I want to play a massive game with them someday.

A few hopefully final questions before I can begin actually playing. I have no need for the starter sets, besides the rules, dice, and templates. Any goon recommend sources for the necessary bits? Shamelessly stolen, and still learning all the interactions, this looks fun. Don't have point costs, but it looks like a decent triple trips list, for whatever that's worth. Vessery (TIE/D, Ruthless, Tractor Beam) Delta (TIE/D, Ion Cannon) Delta (TIEx7) Finally, what's the best way to paint these things? Will a standard gesso primer work as well as it does on my 40k minis?

Goddamn Ryad sounds like fun. I'm trying to get a Ryad Delta Delta list worked out, but I'm missing something. Is it even possible within 100 points?

Confused, like this? Lots of green, seems like something that's not overly complex, easy to learn the Defender on, and not actually horrible.

Quoting from way the gently caress back, I'm getting some of these for a bunch of my old battletech minis eventually, was thinking of doing your scheme but starting a wee bitdarker with some added black, putting the mask down, going about as light as yours are, putting a mask down, the going a smidge lighter and peeling everything off. I figure it would be subtle enough to add some added patterns without going TNG Aztec or Rebel capital ship. Thoughts?

I finally got around to contacting asmondee about my broken rear end Defender with a peg stuck in it. Apparently they are sending me a new one? Do they just send the TIE and base, or is it the whole shebang?

Admiral Joeslop posted:Unless your base or some other non-model part is broken, the model is all they send. You can also easily fix the original Defender with super glue or magnets or whatever. Good, otherwise that's beyond crazy customer service. drat thing snapped off the second I put it in. Brittle as hell plastic.

Well, first time I had my Defender and a pair of lovely TIEs, he had Poe and Luke. the TIEs did nothing, the Defender did everything. I lost. Second game, Poe and Luke vs my Mauler, Night Beast, Dark Curse and Zeta Ace. Like, 10 turns in, nobody is dead, Poe and Luke are shieldless, and half my ties are damaged. I'm K Turning every chance I get, line up some loving rad shots, and nothing. We gave up, gonna try again.
