WurrZog Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 How do you veteran space guys get around the fact sternguard come packaged with an unwanted (well for me it is) Power fist. I mean I don't want to fork out points for something im not going to use. Should I just say he has an oversized hand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turelhim vampire Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Get a modelling saw or some clippers and saw/snip it off, replacing the arm with a plastic one, maybe holding an auspex or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WurrZog Posted October 9, 2008 Author Share Posted October 9, 2008 Cheers, not sure why I didn't think of that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nighthawks Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 or keep that AWESOME model, use it as a sgt or soemthing, and replace it in the sternguard squad with something a little more your speed. there are a bunch of great bolter metals out there. edit: spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz1858 Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Convert it to a lightning claw if possible. Worth having in the squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drakkhenkc Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Well you can always tell your opponent before you play "Brother McAwesomeFist doesn't really have a power fist, he's just...awesome." WYSIWYG is to ensure that if a model has an upgrade, you have it modeled. But you can always have the upgraded model and not take the upgrade.

WurrZog Posted October 10, 2008 Author Share Posted October 10, 2008 Hey I'm so robbing the name "Brother McAwesomeFist' for my commander or something similar. And I'll probably just keep it on him and say he has a giant awesome fist!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drakkhenkc Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Hey knock yourself out - there's no copyright on the dorky marine names I throw around Chappy McJumpsAlot (chaplain with jump pack) Punchy McPowerFist (probably related to Brother McAwesomeFist) Brother Captain McAwesomePants (grey knights do have some awesome pants) Sgt Choppy McChopsAlot (chainsword sgts) honorable mention : Joe Space Marine (generic bolter marine, named so for when wounds are allocated to a 'regular joe' ) Yeah...there's quite a few Irish space marines running around out there.

Master Vandor Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Just tell your opponent it is one of those large novelty foam hands :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phosis Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Probably too late (you might have X'd the powerfist), but the knives in the tactical sprue work well for lightning claws. I had a lightning claw wielding power-armored chosen back in the last Chaos codex do 3 wounds on a Carnifex with rerolls. Throw that sucker in there, at least it's initiative 4. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
