Oh well another Episode with no XP. However did I overspend to 1750?

Mortals start the game with 1000xp, Marines with 500. Since then we've earned 2 lots of 500, meaning that Marines are on 1500xp and Mortals are on 2000. So if you've spent 1750, you've got 250 still to spend?

More likely, it's a misunderstanding on the part of the local people who named it. Any Space Marine could be almost as legendary as a Primarch, and the terms could easily be confused by someone who doesn't fully comprehend the difference?

Mazer Rackham Posted December 25, 2025 Author Share Posted December 25, 2025 (edited) Yeah, the new claw is solid. Like the fact it's a pack-mounted ammo as well. I like it, a lot. It's a good upgrade, but that head. Oof. Better... Apparently he's supposed to get a 'retinue' as well. I will literally crap bricks if it's a Lamenter, an Astral Claw Sorcerer, and an Executioner.

Mazer Rackham Posted December 25, 2025 Author Share Posted December 25, 2025 (edited) I am now beginning to worry.

FabiusV4lcoran Posted December 25, 2025 Share Posted December 25, 2025 I REALLY don't like his face. The smile makes it look goofy; they could have taken out a few more teeth and maybe it would have been better. I agree about the helmet. I do like his psyker pet though! I thought they did a good job with the secondary model. Primary isn't nearly as intimidating as he should be.

Lord_Ikka Posted December 26, 2025 Share Posted December 26, 2025 Head is not great- looks like they wanted to make him yelling but it reads as a weird, nurgly smile. Everything else is a glow-up from the old model- just put a helmet on him and he'll be good.
