Emicus Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 Figured out my paintscheme! So had to go out and buy some paint (because of course I can't use the million colours I already have, need slightly different shades for this scheme...) and oh my what is this a few broadsides fell onto the till and before I knew it he had rung them up! Felt so embarrassed to have him take them out I just had to buy them....

Emicus Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 (edited) Relic weapon (upgrade) maybe? Or ATS is pretty neat for your 12 BC shots Edited April 18, 2018 by Emicus Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345642-greater-good-today/page/3/#findComment-5059452 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATS or Shield Gen...??? Mithril If you want extra damage, ATS, if you want a bit more survivability then shield gen. My current coldstar is HOBC, MPx2 and shield gen, while an ascetic choice he can take on the multi wound stuff I tend to fight against. Next is one with fusion blades, HOBC and MP for a melee version.

Guest Triszin Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 I think I'll make another MP for my coldstar, so I can flip between builds, as having another MP for ranged harassment does sound good Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345642-greater-good-today/page/3/#findComment-5059490 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Posted April 18, 2018 Author Share Posted April 18, 2018 I'd be much more interested in the MP if it were S8. It's very obviously an anti-infantry weapon since it doesn't has the required amount of shots to properly threaten vehicles with just AP-1 but with S7 it's the same as S5 or S6 against T4. It's better against T3 but against those you really don't need the 1d3 damage lol.

The MP was and still is an assault version of the autocannon, plus S7 can work well against light transports and walkers which are T7 to T5.

Panzer Posted April 18, 2018 Author Share Posted April 18, 2018 Yeah and the Autocannon is cheaper and has fix D2 instead of D1d3 ... and is also one of the more rarely seen weapons. ^^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345642-greater-good-today/page/3/#findComment-5059693 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Pounder Posted April 26, 2018 Share Posted April 26, 2018 Looks good! Is the rest of your Cadre painted in the green and white scheme? I really like it. Today I built my Commander, he’s ready for the start of the ETL! Tonight I’ll be building some drones and painting my second support turret. elmo 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345642-greater-good-today/page/3/#findComment-5065793 Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was that even the Autocannon who's cheaper and more reliable is not considered a good weapon compared to other available things. Who needs 40" movement on a 36" weapon anyway lol Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345642-greater-good-today/page/3/#findComment-5066171 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panzer Posted April 27, 2018 Author Share Posted April 27, 2018 Meh, all the characters who are actually scared of some MP shots (against T3 Sv4+ it's ~7 damage, against T4 Sv3+ it's only ~4 damage) usually hide in the middle of units without such an obvious weak spot as an exposed back and in return you risk losing your Coldstar quite easily by moving so far into enemy territory. At least in my local meta. I also questioning the worth of trading a Coldstar who could really wreck things with a cheap character (because the expensive ones won't get killed by it). Better use some deep strike units for that like Crisis or even just Vespid.

Guest Triszin Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Had 5 min yesterday to work on tau stuff. Worked on my riptide and figured out the arm placements, also figured out the replacement shoulders. I can tell legion.. My riptide will be a blast to paint. What secondary (weapon) system should I give him?

elmo Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 I have magnetised mine so he can have all/any ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345642-greater-good-today/page/3/#findComment-5068143 Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnboardG1 Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 It’s quite an easy magnetisation. A pair of 5mm by 1mm magnets or four 3mm by 1mm magnets will mate the gun to the arm pretty well.

Focslain Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 So finished up the riptide minus the head, I found one that I'll paint up later, but here's the rest of it. If I have time I work on some other projects, but for ELVI I'm doing admech. Wish you all luck on your projects.

Focslain Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 If I have time I work on some other projects, but for ELVI I'm doing admech. Noooooooooooooooooooo! Sorry, but my local group is doing a Tales of Gamers thing and I'm double dipping my painting for it to the ELVI. Full disclosure: I was planning on doing a battlesuit heavy Tau army for it, get my Macross on with the paint schemes. First squad of battlesuits was going be in the cannon fodder colour scheme (brown and white). But the guy running it was like, 'Why don't you do your knights and give the others a curve ball to deal with?' So knights it was and it actually made him rethink his own lists. So you can blame him for me doing Ad Mech instead of Tau for this. elmo and MithrilForge 2 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345642-greater-good-today/page/3/#findComment-5068540 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Triszin Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 I realized something today that I want for the tau. Firecadre to have access to one support system (or signature system). I'd love to give a fire cadre grav inhibitor field or multi sensory discourgment array Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/345642-greater-good-today/page/3/#findComment-5069299 Share on other sites More sharing options...
