Olis Posted October 29, 2015 Author Share Posted October 29, 2015 (edited) MASS EFFECT 3 SPOILERS IN THE LINKED VIDEO That sound at 03:05? Although it is a touch different to the ones on that moon, it's, in essence, the same sort of sound. Edit: Around about 03.07 (and again at about 03.47) in this video is about as close as I'm going to get for a sound sample. ;) Edited October 29, 2015 by Olis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olis Posted October 30, 2015 Author Share Posted October 30, 2015 Id always imagined the Glaive or and big volkite to sound like the seismic charges from star wars, Link I won't deny it - that is a pretty cool sound. ;) While I'm here - I'd just like to briefly touch on how I envision things actually deflagrating. To me, it's much akin to how paper or leaves combust without any actual flame (like the smouldering process). The deflagrating would occur at a given point and then, like the leaves or paper, the flameless combustion would creep across the surface (and inside) the victim. After the fact, the results would leave burned husks - possibly even embers - and ash. Does anyone else picture it similarly?

Loquille Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) Thanks guys @ Urza The lenses are just Mephiston red with a touch of Flash Gitz yellow added over a few layers. Pretty simple, just remembering to add the touch of white at the end, which I appear to have forgotten on these. @JagoSevatarion I did, those cables are horrible to cut between.

Knight of the Raven Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Just noticed this: CONCEPT Rite of War: Sol Crusader Effects - Any unit armed by default with bolt weapons in the usual LACAL entries may replace them, like for like, with volkite contemporaries listed as such for free: Bolt Pistol = Volkite Serpenta Bolt Gun = Volkite Charger Heavy Bolter = Volkite Culverin Unit options remain otherwise unchanged. - The army may use 0-2 relics, instead of the usual 0-1. Both relics may be given to a single non-unique Independant Character if the player so chooses. Limitations - You may not take units wearing terminator armour. The option in any unit entry to take terminator armour should be ignored. - You may not take a Fortification allied detachment. - You may not take any Primarch Lord of War unit. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Now, I must admit, I did struggle a little bit to add in a second advantage, so if anyone has any better/more characterful alternatives, I'm all ears. So, anyway, what does the club think? I like it, and what I'm about to say is as obvious as the target on an eldar's back in a Slaaneshi party, but there are the unique units to deal with - with some exceptions. For example, it's obvious that the Gal Vorbak weren't there before Lorgar, but the ashfire discodancers were already burning libraries in their hobby time before their primarch was found I believe.

Indeed, brother. However, if I am to avoid a large shopping list of things the player can't take, I must trust in them to be intelligent about it. Unless there's a quick and concise way to forbid multiple units... And then I must be wary on making it seem balanced. The more I take out the more, it seems, is needed to counteract that in some way or another. Sometimes being entirely inclusive isn't the best course of action.

GodEmperorOfMankind Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 The whole BaC box is going fists (I need a counter army for my Iron IV) The question you should be asking is, are the other 20 marines in that box having bolters, or choom?

Slips Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 (edited) Combi-Choom actually exists~~~! http://www.forgeworld.co.uk/resources/fw_site/fw_pdfs/Horus_Heresy/Horus_Heresy_7th_Edition.pdf Horus Heresy-era combi-weapons have their own range of secondary weapon options which differ from their 41st Millennium counterparts, as shown in the 7th edition rulebook. These are as follows: - Flamer - Meltagun - Plasma gun - Grenade launcher (frag or krak – choose which type when fired) - Volkite charger Edited November 16, 2015 by Slipstreams Olis 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black_out Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Ok so we all know FW is out of and reworking their volkite chargers, but physically, are the dimensions between the chargers and calivers very different? From the photos it looks like the caliver has a slightly longer barrel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish FW would hurry up and make some. ;) @Wolf_Pack: pew pew is for flashlights and their bigger brothers. Indeed. Club Rule #5: Volkite’s go ‘choom’. They DO NOT go ‘pew-pew-pew’.Although, that said, we can't make someone think they make a certain sound if they've already decided. Ok so we all know FW is out of and reworking their volkite chargers, but physically, are the dimensions between the chargers and calivers very different? From the photos it looks like the caliver has a slightly longer barrel. They are, in terms of looks, stretched Chargers, basically. They have more focusing rings (or heat rings) along the barrel.

Black_out Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Thanks @olis! So you think they'd be passable substitutes for chargers given FW is currently sold out? I don't want them looking too wonky but I also am impatient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted November 16, 2015 Author Share Posted November 16, 2015 As long as the people you play don't mind, then I don't see a problem for you to sub in Calivers for Chargers. Those in the know will definitely know the difference but I suppose that depends on how developed the 30k scene is where you are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
