Canadian_F_H Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 So I got a message this morning that GW has shipped it out, will be seeing it in our grubby hands soon enough! I look forward to building and painting... And I intend to play thru it single player for sure, but I may run it past a few friends as well. Coordinating game nights has proven to be rather troublesome of late, but we shall see!

Reough Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 Mine arrived yesterday and I dove in this morning - the miniatures look great and the snap fit is some of the easiest and cleverest I've seen.

Old-Four-Arms Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Some info on the hidden vault contents (via 4chan). Spoilered as requested by the mods, so click at your own peril. Apparently, there are four possible "endings" / "results",three of which can be found on 4chan :Augmetic of Speed :Add 1 to MoveAlso, Hero is immortal (see below)Augmetic of Rejuvenation :Remove 1 Wound marker at end of each event/recovery phaseOR replace 1 Grievous Wound marker with a Wound markerAlso, Hero is immortal (see below)Augmetic of Entanglement :Attack rolls for adjacent & visible hostiles need to be re-rolledAlso, Hero is immortal (see below)Immortal : can still be taken out of action, but will automaticallypass recovery rolls Old-Four-Arms Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351400-warhammer-quest-40k-blackstone-fortress/#findComment-5199083 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reough Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Expansions look exciting - I wonder if we might start to see shadespire-esq explorer bands released in the next year or so. Has anyone managed to play the game yet? I'm still part way through building the opposition.

Master Sheol Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 I have my Copy and already made two single player explorations It's a good game i like the mechanics and the various explorers and hostiles are well balanced Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351400-warhammer-quest-40k-blackstone-fortress/#findComment-5200910 Share on other sites More sharing options...
helterskelter Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Rein and Raus' double team is particularly useful I've found and a steal at 2+ (ah the old anything but 1's comes out) Also finding Taddeus has been more than useful with his heal too Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/351400-warhammer-quest-40k-blackstone-fortress/#findComment-5200976 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supe robot gangster #1 Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Taddeus is also no slouch close up with his maul! Best moment so far has been our first stronghold, deathmaze, UR aces obsidiax by rolling a 20 using my now favourite item from the clarion, incantation: death, then proceeding to annihilate the two chaos marines with the ridiculous amounts of sixes he rolled that turn!

El_Dicko Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Anxiously awaiting my copy! Hoping to use this to rope a few non gamer friends in and as an excuse to get some sort of group going here. Of course on the other hand I’m just happy to convert all these lovely chaos dudes.

Canadian_F_H Posted November 28, 2018 Author Share Posted November 28, 2018 I already put the CSM lord and a CSM together. Tho mostly to have more models to compare truescale projects to. Very nice overall tho! Gonna put the beastmen together because I want to compare them to the beastmen R&H in building.

I think I’ll convert the chaos dudes as fallen but they should look similar enough that casual players will not be confused. Please post pics if you can for the beastmen, I’m considering picking up the beastmen start collecting for conversion and/or dual system use...

Marshal Vespasian Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 How do you guys transport the minis? I got the box since release and read the fluff, but I haven't touched the game. I would like to take it with me on vacation next week, but I am a bit afraid of the minis taking damage, if I just throw them into the box as they are. Thinking about rolling them up in kitchen or toilet paper until a proper foam insert for the game appears on the third party market. Just started to assemble. I am kind of ticked off by the parts where the minis are pushed together having gaps. The solution is liquid greenstuff?

Cactus Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 I've built the ur-gul, drones, cultists and guardsmen and haven't noticed significant gaps. I do use a bit of poly cement though so that could explain the diffetence. I'm also concerned about storage and transport. Those head-dendrites on the cultists seem very flimsy and likely to snag on other models.

Canadian_F_H Posted November 30, 2018 Author Share Posted November 30, 2018 Yeah... A lot of the models appear fragile for transport... Haven't thought that far ahead yet. I've only built the CSM lord. The 2 CSM, and the 4 Beastmen. As they were relevant to other projects I have on the go. (truescaling and R&H beastmen respectively) The gaps haven't been to bad. Tho i noticed when pushing the heads on the beastmen they kind of stop with a huge gap, but if you push hard enough they pop in the last bit. Almost like there is an edge on there that they almost get totally hung up on.

Cactus Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 I forgot to add that I also trim the pegs a little bit, which helps with fitting them in smoothly.

Canadian_F_H Posted November 30, 2018 Author Share Posted November 30, 2018 I forgot to add that I also trim the pegs a little bit, which helps with fitting them in smoothly. I definitly found that necessary with DV. tho to be honest, if I'm flying the model together, I might as well cut the whole peg off eh? Back to BSF. my only gripe with all these danged board games GW has put out the past few years is their gross incompatibility... Even if they just stuck to the same sort of board tiles. Like if all of them were hex based with the same thickness of card stock... Then we could jam together BSF, spacehulk, calth, prospero, and killteam:rogue trader... Or at least use all the different tiles to change things up later.

wildweasel Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 I got a Citadel Battle Case for BSF, mainly for room to handle future expansions. The base game would fit into a Skirmish case super easy.

GreenScorpion Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 If anyone wants to look into what the miniatures look like assembled without glueing I have some pics in my renegades wip thread. The models are easy to build but as referred already some parts could easily break or at least get bent.
