appiah4 Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Very smooth painting but the red somehow looks flat and pinkish.. It might be the lighting or camera settings on the wrong white level (which seems to be the case due to pinkish white backgrounds, but I'm just guessing..) Better photos would be great.

Charlo Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 Gotta have the Go-Pro on to prove he's doing his job on the field! In other news - the Custodes Transfer sheet is out and it has a LOAD of gold vine-like decals on it that will look just amazing on out Red and Black tanks :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlo Posted December 5, 2016 Share Posted December 5, 2016 My "local" club (45ish mins train etc) has started doing Saturday gaming and plans to extend it into 2017! Which for me, means I might actually get some more games in on a day where I'm not rushed or just finished work. Huzzah!

Bukimimaru Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Today I'm exited to be working on a small Kill-team army. Finally a project that's small enough for me to actually have a chance at finishing it. >_< Father Mapple, Charlo and Dont-Be-Haten 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warsmith Uveron Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Today: I picked up a Sanguinary Priest, a Resin Apothecary, Devastator squad, Assault Squad and Land raider Crusader on a swap for some metal chaos stuff I wasnt going to use... Now the question is should the Devastators: Missile launchers or Plasma Cannons? Dolchiate Remembrancer 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bukimimaru Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Plasma Canons, amigo. Those blast templates are perfect for splatting marine eqs, well worth the "gets hot" risk. SM1981 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaplain Gunzhard Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 Well ...rule of cool means Plasmacannon all day for me, but I feel like the ML is just more versatile and offers better range, which is severely lacking in most of my lists (and in general most BA lists).

Bukimimaru Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 I've never used ML, I've always just assumed they suck because I've never seen anyone take them. Are they actually useful, because I usually run lots of scouts and now our scouts have reasonable BS, I might start adding a few in.

Jolemai Posted December 7, 2016 Author Share Posted December 7, 2016 IMHO they are best en masse. So on Devastators, Terminators, Land Speeders, etc. So whilst four (or three and a Lascannon) would be good on a Devastator squad, a single one in a Scout Squad is a bit wasted considering the rest of the unit. Same goes with Tactical Squads; you sacrifice the rest of the unit's output for one STR 8 shot (or pie plate). For Scouts, I prefer to either go without or opt for the heavy bolter (regular synergises well enough with bolter Scouts or even combat ones as you can move and still get three shots: more chance of hitting on a six with three goes than one - while the hellfire option works well sniper scouts) As for Devastators, choosing between missile launchers or plasma cannons will vary from meta to meta. I know that plasma Devastators are uncommon due to the Gets Hot! feature (but we can mitigate that) - are you more likely to face light vehicles/MCs or AP2?

Sans Mercy Posted December 7, 2016 Share Posted December 7, 2016 No more Razorback with an oversized 3rd party heavy bolter turret for the WW Scorpius for me. Slap Battle of Keylek on this pupper and watch your enemies ignore your jump pack blobs till they've dealt with it. WIP, and as always, potato cam.

Jolemai Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 Considering getting the paints out this weekend as I'll have some time... How'd this go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
appiah4 Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 (edited) Tonight, I will order a box of Space Hulk. Because why not? Order placed. This feels better than I can explain. Back in 2009 when this thing released, I just couldn't afford/justify it. I wasn't making much money, the box was a huge investment, I was kind of out of the hobby in between 3rd and 5th editions.. And then it just.. disappeared! Like that! I regreted it greatly. Then it got re-released in 2014 and for some stupid reason I decided I didn't need the genestealers, or even all the terminators. I went to bitz sites and grabbed a couple of the terminators for modelling and painting. When they came in the mail, I started punching myself in the face for not grabbing the whole box because of how beautiful they were. This time, it is mine. I will likely preserve it in its shrinkwrap for a decade or so, then unbox and paint it with my kids when they are old enough to appreciate it. Considering getting the paints out this weekend as I'll have some time... How'd this go? http://i1.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/010/390/pC8jf5t4eWCDKcMu.jpg Edited December 8, 2016 by appiah5 LutherMax, Riot Earp and Lasuria 3 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LutherMax Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 That is good news indeed! Surely they wouldn't put out an FAQ with every answer just being: "No." So there's hope, right? :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyriks Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I'm not all that hopeful we'll get anything new out of it. It could just be simple rules questions, like most of the other faqs had, where just reading the rule clarifies it. Or people asking if they have to use the updated datasheet over the old ones. If we do get, say, chaplains in a LB, I'll be ecstatic, but I don't think they'll do anything like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LutherMax Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I'm still a bit confused as to why we now have a "Death Company Chaplain". It seems like an awfully narrow gap they've squeezed a unit into, and while the dual re-rolls are nice (Astorath lite), he's so inflexible - not being able to remove his pack and not being able to take any gun other than an infernus pistol. Could they not just have made the dual re-roll a Command benefit of the LBSF or DCSF and updated the standard Chaplain datasheet allowing him to take the new Relics?
