Greetings, fellow programs. I've felt motivated to get my Necrons into a full army ready position, having left them to languish in a grey for far too long... thought some were under coated I swear! I'm going to add to this topic but I would be delighted to see what else other people are working on as well. Anyone else motivated by 10th? I'm no good at taking pics, with technology not being my strong suit (ironic huh) but here is what I've completed this week: I need better lighting and will see what I can do I painted their "carapace" parts a dark green, using Nuln Oil gloss over it to deepen things even darker. Edge highlights of lighter greens to ensure depth and make them prettier. Initially used the same lighter green on the contours of the skull shape for the head, but found the latter models looked better with an in-between shade of green (warpstone glow) on the face to make it pop without looking... awful. The early Warriors can stay like that, as they don't look awful. Some of the first Warriors were painted months ago but I finished them and their compatriots a day ago. ***** Next up... I might treat myself to a Skorpekh Lord or maybe the Nightbringer.

Hello wolfy brothers, I've been playing some more games and I'm kind of struggling to find a balance between capturing/holding objectives and dealing damage. Have you used cyberwolves or Fenrisian Wolves for this task? Do they work well? I don't have those models yet, especially since the official ones look so derpy (was thinking about getting some wolves from Mierce Miniatures though...)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION - URGENT TRANSMISSION FROM THE ADEPTUS ADMINISTRATUM. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------- In this article I will address the best weapons both in regards to effectiveness and efficiency Vs different unit types. Weapons that appear on both the effective and efficient list will be deemed the 'most optimal' weapon vs this unit type. The efficiency has been deduced by finding the cheapest way of taking said weapon and dividing the points of the chosen unit by the damage output. To get around the issue of one-shot weapons I divide the efficiency value by the number of rounds of shooting I can do with a weapon (up to a value of 5). The effectiveness was calculated from the amount of wounds caused from the selected weapon/s from the minimum size of unit chosen .
