benane Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 Hi Guys, since my first post I was (and am still) busy painting my stuff from the old SW starter box and some of my new purchases. Now I need to start thinking about an actual list to know, what to get next. My "list" (no point costs yet) looks something like that HQ Ulrik Elites Murderfang with DP Troops 10x GH /w 2x PG in Rhino 10x GH /w 2x PG in Rhino VoidClaw Formation Should be close to 800 Points Other Models that I have, that I want to get into bigger lists eventually: Another Droppod Arjac Harald Runepriest Ironpriest 3 TWC 5 Wolves one of the Rhinos can be upgraded to a RB 10 Bloodclaws /w Flamer and PA There is a lot on my shopping list, but i wanted to know what i sould get next so that I can start playing asap.

Frater Cornelius Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 No BC needed IMO. Get at least 10 wolves instead. I would also wait with characters like Arjac and establish your core first. If you are buying TWC, get a mount for the IP as well. Rest looks fine.

Z00Z Posted November 13, 2014 Share Posted November 13, 2014 What Immy said. I'd maybe alter it to 6 TWC with 1 modelled as IP instead. A box of bikes will also get you some flexibility with your list Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/299216-help-needed-for-new-purchases/#findComment-3861393 Share on other sites More sharing options...
benane Posted November 14, 2014 Author Share Posted November 14, 2014 Thanks for the input guys. I got some more wolves and next on are more twc and the IP will get his mount too. I dislike the bike models, so i want to go without them. On another note, when i opened my SW TDA i noticed only 4 pairs of wolf claws and was pretty disappointed :( Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/299216-help-needed-for-new-purchases/#findComment-3862839 Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatSmasher Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 I am with you on the bikes in general, but if you look around the forum, someone here made some pretty amazing ones. I think Harald is an amazing model, but you can proxy him with other more versatile thunderwolf builds at first. A land raider or flyer is a great way to bump up your list in a block if you're escalating, and both models are great IMO Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/299216-help-needed-for-new-purchases/#findComment-3862931 Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another note, when i opened my SW TDA i noticed only 4 pairs of wolf claws and was pretty disappointed Im with you on this one, specially if you looking to specifically build a void claws formation for the fluff and a fun unit. My recommendation is dont despair, build the last one with magnetised arms for a heavy weapon, SS+AXE and your preferred loadout to make a TDA LW. That way, when you get another box at a later stage or buy the extra bits from ebay/bits store, you can interchange the loadout without much investment.

benane Posted November 15, 2014 Author Share Posted November 15, 2014 Yeah, since i will be getting some more TDAs eventually, it's not a big problem, but annoying none the less^^ for magnetizing, how do you guys deal with the shoulder guards? Since there are not too many of them in the box. And getting them seperately nearly justifies for getting another box of TDA because they look so awesome as a showcase. I want to get arjac's shield brothers as well and finally a magnetized unit. Until them i also should have enough shoulder guards XD Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/299216-help-needed-for-new-purchases/#findComment-3863327 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z00Z Posted November 15, 2014 Share Posted November 15, 2014 you'll see theres 1 specific shoulder with a fur pelt on it. I'd recommend using that on a magnetised arm as it could go either on the right or left side of the termie. It's also a lot easier on termies if you magnetise the one side only, the side without the crest (left hand side if you looking at the model). Takes some careful planning, but thats what I'd recommend.
