Riot Earp Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Like "Erm Gw i lost my glass parts from the stormraven i´ve buyed used between the last 4 years. Would you be so kind to send me an replacement?" Worked for me! Hm on the other side gw replace whole sprues if just one part is broken or something is missing ^^. But i think i will close the cockpit and say it is full armored and the pilot flies per guidance system. :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/297201-ba-today/page/251/#findComment-4818820 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karhedron Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Have I ranted about this thrice-damned Stormraven canopy this month yet? Tonight's menu see a starter of frosted "glass" followed by a main course of fiddly little bars that don't fit no matter which way I try*, and finished with a delicate little snapped bar. * To date, adding the bars first sees the plastic windows not fit and adding the windows first sees the bars not fit. PVA doesn't hold the windows so I've had to use super glue - and all I have is the stuff with a nozzle (UHU). The damn targeter doesn't fit once the windscreen is in place and for some stupid reason I want to buy two more of the buggers!!! [/Rant] Never use super glue for transparent pieces, the fumes are notorious for causing fogging. If PVA does not provide enough grip then use polystyrene cement. If you want to restore plastic that has already fogged, carefully brush the whole piece with clear floor polish such as Pledge Klear Multi Surface Wax. It will temporarily give you model an interesting floral aroma but it usually restores the clarity of fogged parts. I found this tip from aviation and railway modelling.

Not sure if the tactic will pay off, but it's worth a shot. Sadly Custodes can't hop in a storm raven. The SS squad will be acting as an retinue for my warlord. Who'll be sitting back buffing the Dev. Units still just disembark from fliers if the vehicles are destroyed don't they? So there's not a huge risk, other than they may have a long walk. The bike and scouts are fairly cheap but should prove versatile in either deploying onto a mid field objective or scooting over to one in the maelstrom missions. Not sure how well the list will do. 2 Storm Ravens feels a bit dirty, i couldn't quite bring myself to take 3.

Riot Earp Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 Well tournament buissnes may be a little bit dirty. Against what i will maybe face i feel still underpowered. I could played one fire raptor also but the faq came to late. Will se how this tournament went and where the list´s are going. If they all come out that you have to spam units to be superior i leave it to beer and bretzel games with my buddys. The last edition had despite powerfull detachments alot of diversity.

Jønke Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Had my 2nd 8th edition battle the other day. While i still lost (despite my opponent rolling horrible on his ambush rolls) i can se that my beloved terminators have become decent with this edition. So im planning on using an all out terminator army for my next battle. After seeing my friends gorgeus kit bashed terminator lord i wanna try to make one for my angels. Now i need your help. To me it seems like the most solid build for a terminator captain is relic blade and combi plasma? Id love to hear someone thoughts on that. And also if someone know where to fint a good left hand combi plasma?

Lord Janos Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Finally got around to playing my first game of 8th against a mix of night lords and fallen at PL 80. All in all it was a really close game even if we did end things of turn four due to it being past midnight! End result was a win for me mainly thanks to the remains of my assault squad disengaging from combat to grab an objective and linebreaker at the same time. Hugely enjoyed it, both me and the guy I was playing against were stupidly excited throughout the entire thing. Sanguinius et Imperator!

Chaplain Gunzhard Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 (edited) Two games maybe worth mentioning... A solid win against Dark Angels and a blow-out loss against Tzeentch Chaos. I didn't think to take pictures sadly... I used the same list in both games. My List (2000 points, 7CP) Battalion: Captain with PS and PP Corbulo 8man Tactical squad with HF, sergeant with PS and HandF - Rhino 9man scouts with combat blades 10man scouts with sniper rifles and camo DC dreadnought with fists Stormraven with twin-AC, twin-MM Vanguard: Dante Sanguinary Priest with JP Sanguinary Ancient 4man Sanguinary Guard with 2 axes, 2 swords, all Angelus (cuz WYSIWYG) 5man Sanguinary Guard with 5 swords, all Angelus... BA vs DA game (win) He had a smaller elite-ish force, it had the 2 characters Azrael and Ezekiel (both are beatsticks!) with an apothecary a unit of shooty terminators a devastator squad 3 squads with melta a veteran squad with lots of plasma a large unit of bikes the landspeeder vengeance I think 3 rhinos and a HB razorback This was a KP game, we both had small armies. Scout deployment got my snipers hidden in woods with a great view and my CC scouts in threat range. The Stormraven did work all game and deposited the DC center table (turn 2)... first turn the snipers almost killed his apothecary so he smartly assaulted them with a rhino, and they played flee-and-charge for the rest of the game, but the CC scouts with that extra attack from the combat blade were taking names. He was too timid with his LS vengeance and it wasn't much a factor, he also dangled his terminator squad out to tempt the Sanguinary Guard, they gladly took the bait and shredded them in 1 round of combat. The DC dread was quite good, he ate a rhino, using his full charge move to get on the opposite side of it, then consolidated into his plasma veterans, they fleed (but at least they couldn't shoot) and he kept going from assault to assault causing trouble (to his tactical marines and devastators), mostly just preventing units from shooting but killing a bunch too. I'm still not that impressed with the punchy dreads, but the 6" consolidate is really nice! The stormraven hunted down his bikes and killed them off, preventing line breaker, also killed the other rhinos for KP. His characters remained alive while Dante died quite easily, but I still think he felt beaten cuz most of his stuff was dead and I ended up winning in KP with line breaker and first blood. The first 2 turns when I had all the buffs rolling I was just shredding him, after I lost the buffs he was making a slow comeback but I held out. Priests didn't do much, I do miss the old style Feel No Pain... BA vs Tzeentch Chaos (loss) His army looked huge! Arihman on disc, and rubric marines 2 more units of rubric marines with their nasty nasty flamer weapons (warp flamer) 2 exalted sorcerers 2 rhinos 1 FW rapier laser thing 1 big unit of scarab occult terminators with nasty guns and sorcerer 1 Decimator engine (with butcher cannon, decimator siege claw, and hellflamer) a big blob of chaos spaun a unit of Flamers a huuge blob of Pink horrors and Herald of Tzeentch a unit of Tzangors a Hellblade?? flyer, the small fast one This was a Maelstrom game, he got lucky and won big with the cards, but he also thoroughly kicked my butt and I had very little left when we conceded. Between tons of Smite that I could do nothing to prevent, and sooo many -2AP flamer weapons. The 1ksons bolter is also -2AP... their shooting shredded me and the trickiest part I found was that assaulting them was deadly (for me) because of the auto-hit flamers. I lost an entire unit of scouts and a 3man unit of Sanguinary Guard to Overwatch that never got to fight, I lost a lot of other models to overwatch as well. Flamers - just shoot them, unless you can assault from some LOS-blocking vantage point, otherwise the overwatch will shred. Pretty much the same for the Rubric marines. He smartly used Smite to kill the StormRaven pretty quickly, a Librarian seems necessary against these guys. The DC dread put a few wounds on a rhino, but then the Decimator engine just tore him to pieces. My snipers killed his Rapier laser gun first turn, but missed wholesale pretty much the rest of the game, then flamers shot, assaulted and killed them. Dante + SG + Captain with tactical squad surrounded the scarab terminators and killed them off, but they are tough. Tzeentch is a real challenge for small elite assaulty forces, they have great shooting, great psychic powers, tons of bodies and they're hard to assault because of their nasty overwatch. I thought in this case that the Angelus bolters might shine but his stuff is hard to kill, they get bonus to saves if the weapon only does 1-damage. When I'm better rested and not hungover I'll have to re-evaluate my list and tactics hah. Priests didn't do much, I do miss the old style Feel No Pain... I had first turn in both games...

Jolemai Posted July 18, 2017 Author Share Posted July 18, 2017 Unsurprisingly I've got an article backlog of battle reports (two mini 8th ed and a HH game) and revamping the VV for this edition.

OrbOfAntioch Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 So, I got these guys pretty cheap but they were a bit beat up. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/1024x768q90/924/YuHSg7.jpg I ran it in the ultrasonic cleaner for a few good hours and it seem like the Mephiston primer will give no more. -Do you guys think it will be OK to just move on to airbrushing 1st highlight? I'm worried that if I touch up the chipped parts the paint will look inconsistent with the simpled-greened primer. -Also my first time doing red with an airbrushing. I'm thinking 1 airbrush highlight with Blood Red over this dulled Mephiston Primer, and airbrush shade 50/50 scab red/black for shadows, and then airbrush scab red all over to blend. Any suggestions?

LutherMax Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 What's the finish of the paint like? If it's not too think I would probably re-prime them to get an even colour and texture all over the models before moving on to other colours. Do you have any Vallejo acrylic polyurethane primer? It's designed for use with an airbrush so you have a lot more control than using a spray can.
