Emperor's Scourge Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 I don't understand why you guys are confused... He said he was going to use the BA codex for his Skyclaw Army. An army composed almost exclusively of Skyclaws. Probably because he doesn't want to run a bunch of WS 3 assault marines.

The_Betrayed_Spacewolf Posted March 10, 2010 Share Posted March 10, 2010 No I plan on having 5 different space wolf armies. My cavalry list uses the space wolf codex. When I have enough jump packs I will use the blood angel codex with my jump pack list When I get enough bikes I will run a bike list using codex ultramarines When I have enough termies for a list I will use codex da So on and so forth. Multiple armies using a different codexes Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/194256-ba-new-mini-compare-with-sw/page/2/#findComment-2311351 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iacton Qruze Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 I think the main thing I'll be after from the BA kits are the Right Handed Power Fists (to go with Storm Shields and Storm Bolters) and also the Heavy Flamer sponsons from the Baal Pred kit to turn into TL Heavy Flamers for my Razorbacks. Aside from that... Lemartes and Astorath might be fun to paint as one-offs, but I'm not too worked up about the rest of the release.

Grim Dog Studios Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 The only things i want from those kits are the wrist mounted bolters, some of the swords, maybe some of the helmets.

Freman Bloodglaive Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 The Saguinaries would be a good basis for "counts as" Grey Knights. Though it'll probably be cheaper to just buy the Grey Knights.

PKAwolf Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 If I had started playing this game today, Sanguinor and Astrorath would have been reason enough to play BA or even as codex marines lead by 2 captains. one pure and one evil. Im hooked on Lost this season, can you tell? EDIT: I have to be honest though, the wrist mounted bolt pistols looked like an after thought. the level of detail on the rest of the models and then looking at the pistols, Im suprised I didnt see fingerprints in it from the green stuff.

Beef Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 Lemartes looks much better, the DC look ok but to ornate in my opinion. Astoroth looks awsome, the way Gw has him painted looks wack. but the mini looks like a good conversion for either dante or mephi if they dont get a new model. I agree the seth looks like its been inspired by DV8's ragnar the bat vangaurd serg looks like Edward Cullen the exsanginator looks awsome as do the sang gaurds. Overall I am a little jealous, no way can we use these for our armies as the models would have to be heavely converted to fit a SW army. However seeing as BA is my second army I can make use of the models, BUT its a big BUt i have only painted one scout squad and drop pod for my SW so I wont be touching the new Ba models for atleast a year Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/194256-ba-new-mini-compare-with-sw/page/2/#findComment-2315777 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Betrayed_Spacewolf Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 i propose that all blood angel players be referred to as sparklies from this day forward.

Primarch015 Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 i like both the blood angels and the space wolves sculpts. but i have to say that the blood angel special character sculpts are FAR better than the ones the space wolves have. not a fan of sanguinor's pose, but the detail on him is amazing. on the contrary, seth's pose is amazing but his detail is a lot more bland. but thats the way he's supposed to be, so it fits with the fluff. astaroth is just awesome. a spine as a handle for his power axe, his muscle armor and black wings are all jaw dropping. lemartes is very unassuming but the detail again is great. really i dont think the space wolves special character sculpts cannot even begin to compare with the blood angels ones. our terminators and wolf pack sprues are great though, easily on par with the blood angel DC and EAC/VAC sprues.

The_Betrayed_Spacewolf Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 well you can only really compare njal and canis and lukas. canis aside from the wolf is okay imo. njal awesome lukas i just hate the entire idea of. with almost a brand new line of ba special characters Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/194256-ba-new-mini-compare-with-sw/page/2/#findComment-2316431 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beef Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 All we need is a new ragnar, ulrick and grimnar sculpt and some TW cav and we are good to go.

Brunensteiner Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 There is NOTHING WRONG with the current Ragnar or Ulrik-in fact there was nothing wrong with Njal either but I aint complaining. The new BA minis are AWESOME-would collect BAs if I didnt have so much SW gear-I say this from looks alone Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/194256-ba-new-mini-compare-with-sw/page/2/#findComment-2316460 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new BA minis are AWESOME-would collect BAs if I didnt have so much SW gear-I say this from looks alone Ulrik is rather short compared to the new plastics and Ragnar is not half bad but he is rather static. I would like to see new sculpts based on these two points and because they are over two decades old. I think it's time for a 're-imagining' of the characters (as Tim Burton likes to put it). Having said that, they will always remain classics.

The_Betrayed_Spacewolf Posted March 13, 2010 Share Posted March 13, 2010 aye compare the poses of those 3 old models to such as astorath, njal, vulkan, kahn and seth. the whole stand still with your weapons to the side 2d approach stands out horribly these days Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/194256-ba-new-mini-compare-with-sw/page/2/#findComment-2316864 Share on other sites More sharing options...
