So there's rumors of a plastic sicaran coming out next quarter. Probably more than likely not true, but on the other hand it might make sense in that it'll give FW some breathing room to focus on the Specialist Games stuff while GW proper starts producing the currently available 30k stuff. Imagine, a plastic fire raptor.

Space Wolves in light grey actually look really good, and that black marble trim for the angels is pimping.

I do that if the trim is in metallics/dark and the base is yellow, red or white. Easier to fix.

Coloured metallics is something I've seen from a guy on the FB group 'Eavier Metal. Did some beautiful wine red Word Bearers and is doing some Salamanders now.

So with building out an Imperial Fists force from Calth, does it matter much how the Cataphractii are built, can they be THSS'd up à la 40k IF? Also, while I'm sure Rhinos would be the smart choice, I feel like 3-6 Outriders and a Sicaran/a few Medusas would be the fun choice.

The WIP rules have been posted for this guy: WS: 4 - BS: 5 - S:10 - AV: 14/13/12 - I: 3 - A: 2 - HP: 7 Magna-Lascannons are S10 AP1, 72" range, Ordnance 2, Large Blast. And it has two of them. Twinlinked. So not only hitting on 2's but rerolling those 1's as well. Those stubbers are actually straight up Autocannons and the pod on the top is an Ironstorm Misslepod with ordnace rather than barrage.

It's not like I already have enough models to paint across like, 4 game systems. Haha.  Having said that this threads got me in the mood, and it helps that the weathers cooling down so I don't feel like dying next to my nuclear reactor of a lamp. When did Betrayal at Calth come out? It took me this long to finally decide what Legion to paint.

Safety Factor posted:Who're you going with? Well, I thought if it's Horus Heresy I'll be playing might as well go with the big shitters who started it so Word Bearers - and if they die on the table then gently caress it, they deserve it. I've got a scheme in mind that should be quick to paint and actually look decent so I might finish an actual army for once! If they ever release a Mk III box set throw in some Death Guard or Iron Hands too.

Quick question, is 3x 20 man tactical squads and 2x 10 man support squads a good basis? Will I need more ? This is for Word Bearers and I'd like to be able to play 3k point games with my friends.

So 3 ten man squads should do me? I'm just asking as I want to get some calth marines from eBay while they're still cheap but don't want to overbuy.  e: I don't mind want they're run as just want to have an idea of how many bodies I need. It's a bit tough as I don't know anything about the force org for 30k and if I can ran them as vets instead of tac marines that's fine. e2: vvv Ok, I'll get another two sprues, don't want too much to build and paint and get burned out again. ijyt fucked around with this message at 20:29 on Sep 6, 2016 |

Sorry, it was also my fault for not using proper nomenclature. When I said tactical marines it's because I wasn't aware of veterans being a thing - it was more of a "how many of these models should I have to be able to be flexible with my lists" Again, sorry for the confusion and thanks for the good info.

Lord Twisted posted:Autobuy, even tho I'm not wolves or thousand sons. Lord Twisted posted:Autobuy, even tho I'm not wolves or thousand sons. Good thing only the characters have sculpted heraldry. Now do I make Salamanders or Death Guard.  e: having said that I'm still struggling between Alpha Legion and Word Bearers, and probably will until I get round to painting test schemes. Although with 60 Mk IV marines I might be able to get away with doing both and just running vets + tactical support the whole time. ijyt fucked around with this message at 12:53 on Oct 14, 2016 |

So two squads of vets and a flames support squad sounds like a good start to some Salamanders.

Yeah for big hazard stripes I just paint the non-black/non-red layer then mask and spray on black from a can. For smaller areas masking tape again but painting the base colour before painting black to avoid bleeding (thanks to a goon who I can't remember, maybe SRM or Bulbasaur). The second method works best if you're doing battle damage with a sponge as you can hide mistakes that way. For masking the small stuff, Tamiya does super thin masking tape rolls, or I just cut them myself.

Would someone be able to post some photos of Salamanders artwork from one of the books? I recall seeing a small, compressed image and it looks like the art shows their armour as vaguely metallic, like this Word Bearer, and I'd like to try and figure out a good colour to use to make a glaze.
