Have You Seen Me? I still can't find my finished Nurgle army. There's a minute chance I put it on display at a hobby store I was trying to promote years ago, so if you see VC Skeletons, cyclops Dryads, the old metal monkey Plaguebearers, and two Demon Princes converted from Venom action figures, let me know. I'd post more pictures but the hobby site they were hosted on deleted its photo gallery to cut down server load.

The only thing I don't like about Primaris is the bigger boltgun thingies they have. There was a sweet spot in 3rd where human models were much smaller than the latest plastic Marine kit; boltguns looked somewhat small in their hands yet huge in the hands of a Guardsmen, which went a long way in expressing proportion. Guilliman just looks like a skinny Space Marine from the =I=nquisitor range:  BRB, going to eBay Exclusive new Primarch models, L@@K!

$420 for some extra material printed in China and pewter doodads, that will never sell!  It sold-out. There's no one to blame for these shenanigans except for ourselves. Holy poo poo, I found my booger monsters, they were in a tiny plastic bin in the back of my closet. I thought I had lost them while moving house.   Skellies I didn't do poo poo to, Dryads I added hats and cyclops eyes to, one is holding the Washboard Of Nurgle.  This prick's rules aren't good anymore, maybe he can be a generic Herald and give an aura.   I guess I'm okay with how gimped Plaguebearers are since they're half the point cost of what they used to be. 30 Plaguebearers, 2 Beasts, 2 Daemon Princes, Ku'gath, a Great Unclean One, and Epidemius used to be a complete army. Poxwalkers are looking good, but I think I'll get 60 Nurglings instead.  What's the best generic stand-in for Nurglings? Post 9-11 User fucked around with this message at 18:38 on Jul 22, 2017 |

I thought that squeeze bottles were the best innovation in painting in ages, the very best way to get paint onto a palette. Then, the nozzle on one of them blasted off as I was squeezing out some paint:  I had to rush my bog monsters to the sink to wash off the paint splatters and pour rubbing alcohol on the carpet to get the stains out. I still haven't found where the nozzle careened to.

Games Workshop is running a summer campaign. You get points for buying stuff and painting it. https://warhammer40000.com/fate-konor-galaxy-flames/ Finding swarms miniatures is a pain. There are D&D miniatures like Rot Slugs that would be perfect but they're OOP and expensive as hell. I need hoards of Nurglings, dammit. The only feasible option I've found is these little alien gribblies and the models are ugly as hell: http://khurasanminiatures.tripod.com/6mmscifi.html Edit: comedy option, 35 giant snails for $6:  Ordering some of these, beats the $8 per model Nurglings: http://www.trollandtoad.com/p299805.html Post 9-11 User fucked around with this message at 17:44 on Jul 29, 2017 |

I'm trying to wrap my head around how assaults work in 8th, especially now that Initiative is completely gone, ran into a snag with who can fight. The rules say that anyone within 1" of the enemy gets to fight, any model within 1" of such an ally gets to fight. The rulebook says that this represents ranks of 2, but wouldn't that be 3? If a model is in base contact, his buddy is contact with him, and another is in contact with that guy, that means 3 models get to fight. What am I missing? This example presumes 1" bases, thank heck that Pox Walkers still have those.  RIP small bases for Marines, people were always so delighted when I pointed out that the bases are 1" so you don't need to measure for attack ranges in close combat. I made an army roster, turns out I have a 1,500 point army once my slug bros arrive, which is a relief. Nurgle Heralds can't take a Palaquin, which is lovely, so I have to take Epidemius instead. Whatever, at least he has Smite.  The only spanner in the cogs is that I need to get wings for my Daemon Princes so I'm not totally incapable of taking on Flyers. The appropriate wings I found from a bits vendor were out of stock. So, a Daemon Prince with wings has the same Power Level as one without them, but if using Points the one with wings costs more? Buh? I ordered Rot Grubs, which look disgusting and at $3 a model are far better than the $8 per for Nurgling models. http://www.trollandtoad.com/p299805.html

JoshTheStampede posted:4, actually. Ranks 1 and 2 are themselves eligible for being within an inch, and ranks 3 and 4 are by definition within 1 inch of rank 2, if everyone is touching. Good grief, you're right. The 2nd rank is itself a 'within 1" of the enemy' model. This is the one major slip I've read in the rules so far, the rest of it is excessively simple and free of caveats, which I like.

I have 1 Elite, 5 HQ, and 5 Troops in my 1,500 point list. Okay, so I have enough for a Battalion and a Supreme Command detachment. I have no idea what I'm doing. After over 15 years of painting my fear of spraying primer instead of lacquer onto models finally happened. Turned an extremely low-effort paint job into an ordeal to fix it, they look passable now:

I asked before how much of the Wikia article is fan fiction, if any of it is official fluff, didn't get an answer. Because lines like this are cool and good: "Why do I still live? What more do you want from me? I gave everything I had to you, to them. Look what they've made of our dream. This bloated, rotting carcass of an empire is driven not by reason and hope but by fear, hate and ignorance. Better that we had all burned in the fires of Horus' ambition than live to see this." http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Roboute_Guilliman In private, he's moody and despondent with too much responsibility on his shoulders, like how I imagine all Space Marines must feel. Imperial Commander to a group of twenty Space Marines: "You must help us, storm the heretic fortification, save the day for us!" Space Marines: "Sigh, we're so tired of this poo poo, we've been doing this for centuries." Iron Warriors: "Told you so."
