librisrouge Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Regardless of how anything else works out, please finish that Marauder Destroyer and post pictures. I've been wanting one of those for a long, long time but the money is too much, even for a guy that just dropped $65 of guys for conscripts.

Duke Danse Macabre Posted December 8, 2014 Author Share Posted December 8, 2014 Regardless of how anything else works out, please finish that Marauder Destroyer and post pictures. I've been wanting one of those for a long, long time but the money is too much, even for a guy that just dropped $65 of guys for conscripts. Rest asured I will mate, just £200 before christmas shopping is too much, after then all is good. Just finally got hold of the Thrice Born as well, only cost me £50'ish, good buy in my eyes. But no, I already have an avenger, I like the idea of running 2 Avengers and the big dog at 2k with a a sisters of Battle Combat force, I want to see my enemies confused before I kill them. Also with it being a super heavy being able to target a different unit with every weapon I really want to use its missiles the first turn it comes in on one unit in particular, just the Idea the feeling of all those auto cannons opening fire and missiles flying into a single unit or even 5 or 6 different flyers or tanks in an act of holy vengence, bombs being dropped as it goes along your back line thanks to its ability to enter play from anywhere. Yes its expencive but it will make back its points. What I am wondering though is it worth trying to trim 30 points or more so that I may take an eviserator and some goodies on the HQ?...

grendal1989 Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 I might. My cannoness having eternal warrior was particularly helpful at denying Slay the Warlord to the preponderance of S6 at a recent tournament.

Duke Danse Macabre Posted December 8, 2014 Author Share Posted December 8, 2014 Personally I wll be keeping her hidden but I don't think the extra security will help there copared to what I would have to give up in terms of output through firepower. Now I don't mind adding a little extra grunt to my HQ but past an Eviserator (rosarius if the points allow) I don't take much else, if they still had jump packs open to them or 2+ Armour then we would be talking but sadly those days are gone. :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289853-sisters-of-battle-the-never-ending-plog/page/2/#findComment-3883317 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PureFodder Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 If you build a SoB Marauder, make sure you replace the heavy bolter turret on top for the one off the immolator, it fits perfectly with a minimal amount of effort and makes it look so much more sistery.

*Furyou Miko Posted December 9, 2014 Share Posted December 9, 2014 I'd go for fewer squads with more power, personally... but you should definitely take the Sisters to the tournament!

Duke Danse Macabre Posted December 9, 2014 Author Share Posted December 9, 2014 Can't really fit more than what I have without starting to trim things, but the Max firepower i can get does tend to realy on the HQ hiding inside a transport all game. :P Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289853-sisters-of-battle-the-never-ending-plog/page/2/#findComment-3884445 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duke Danse Macabre Posted December 23, 2014 Author Share Posted December 23, 2014 Now this is why I hate buying tanks of ebay, because I have to repair rubbish like this...

Duke Danse Macabre Posted December 24, 2014 Author Share Posted December 24, 2014 Too late for that, the thing was falling apart, caked in putty, through broken or damaged and hair stuck to it. Tore it apart and it can be a rebuild.

Duke Danse Macabre Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 Getting really behind on this. Well as it stands I am still frantically painting my sisters of battle for an upcoming tournament, however I have finished my objective markers. Tempted to add a dead or injured marine or guardsman, another option is broken weapons, spend ammo, books but not sire which, what do folks think will work best and what do you think of the markers so far? Considering doing another 3 so i can have 3 large and 3 small. http://i414.photobucket.com/albums/pp222/DukeDanseMacambre/IMG_08271.jpg http://i414.photobucket.com/albums/pp222/DukeDanseMacambre/IMG_08301.jpg http://i414.photobucket.com/albums/pp222/DukeDanseMacambre/IMG_08291.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289853-sisters-of-battle-the-never-ending-plog/page/2/#findComment-3974506 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I think the statues look very good, I'd go with some bits and bobs - battlefields aren't clean places and we all have lots of spare weapons etc to use up :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289853-sisters-of-battle-the-never-ending-plog/page/2/#findComment-3974582 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just rebased Celestine as well. Time well spent, just the rest of the army to do now. lol Currently painting them and using this as a break so as not to hate my life. http://i414.photobucket.com/albums/pp222/DukeDanseMacambre/IMG_08321.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289853-sisters-of-battle-the-never-ending-plog/page/2/#findComment-3974586 Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 No painting is worth hating your life :P Take a break if you need one, or paint a different model or something to recharge your hobby tank :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289853-sisters-of-battle-the-never-ending-plog/page/2/#findComment-3974596 Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarriorFish Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Faith is all that matters! Soldier on to victory Duke but don't forget to put your feet up periodically - how many models do you have left? If I forget beforehand good luck in the tourney, I look forward to hearing how you get on :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289853-sisters-of-battle-the-never-ending-plog/page/2/#findComment-3974911 Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Furyou Miko Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 I like the idea of objective markers you can put dice on to say what the objective is. So maybe a lectern, a plinth and a crater with some debris?

Sith’ari Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Think of it this way mate, just five weeks of pain for a wicked, cool looking army - definately a fair exchange rate! The markers are looking great, but as Miko and Warriorfish have said, some crates and some Tamiya clear red blood spattering will definately make them pop.

Duke Danse Macabre Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 Yeh, i do need a little embellishment on them I think. Wish i did not have to use Flash on Celestine though, looks so much nicer in natural light. :P Anyway painting the troops, already done the bases, just need them pinned on when done. Just need to paint the white, some gold highlights, the flesh, the hair, the purity seals, the one power sword and the white trim on the robes... You really don't notice the level of detail till you have to paint them. I sear Harlequins have less work to do on them the damn filthy Xenos. http://i414.photobucket.com/albums/pp222/DukeDanseMacambre/IMG_08331.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289853-sisters-of-battle-the-never-ending-plog/page/2/#findComment-3976414 Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Furyou Miko Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Why not take the photo in natural light then? Or get a Daylight Lamp. They're really good for painting under as well - my painting is very basic but it would be basic and sloppy if I didn't have one. ^^; Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289853-sisters-of-battle-the-never-ending-plog/page/2/#findComment-3976513 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duke Danse Macabre Posted March 14, 2015 Author Share Posted March 14, 2015 Its on the list after Cosplay gear, Elysians and War Machines of the Adeptus Astartes. They are all needed in the next month or 3 so I need to plan around shipping times. :P Only got £200 left on the Elysians to ally with my sisters in the 2k Tournament, prefer pure sisters but I want a fully painted force more.
