eh just a sum up

#

like what GW is saying about 3d printing and shir

#

shit

#

i know about whats up with tournaments

#

but i heard they said 3d printing is illegal?

elfin yew
#

Nah you just cant rlly bring 3d printed parts into GW tours. Like official GW tournaments

#

But even thats up to change apparently.

#

There was a post where you could email asking if a part was okay

hoary ermine
#

Specifically the post you are thinking about is ONLY for warhammer world in England.

compact umbra
#

Ohh

#

I live in a small town and I only play killteams so it doesn’t really effect me

#

I was just worried if like I was gonna get in trouble or some shit for 3d printing custom parts

lapis tundra
#

If you made the 3d printed piece yourself its 100% legal too

compact umbra
#

Oh ok good

tiny cairn
#

There's a number you can call or email or something to verify if you are good or not, and it's just for official tournaments

so either they really did make a shitload of Dominion boxes or interest isn't as high as indomitus. either way, it still isn't sold out yet and i am impressed

How did the one with the cadian torso turn out?

lofty raven

honestly little janky and the zombies i used have small waists but once it's painted they look fairly natural, like the armour is hanging off them

OH shit the Redeemer's back? I have a comic from the fucking 90's of him.

vivid rune

@lapis tundra whos this dude?

elfin yew
#

My boy is reading

shell yacht
#

I have no idea of the lore's still accurate to the comic I read but I think he's a priest in the Underhive that goes around and beats the shit out of criminals and then of they're still alive he decides of they should be redeemed and crash at his temple HQ.

#

He also has a religious posse and he kills anyone who doesn't take care of their weapons properly.

Welcome to the dreadparty with my hedonites lol

really hoping that come 3rd edition the Beasts of Chaos gain access to all the Marked Bestigors, right now they only have access to Tzaangors, but a Slaangor model does currently exist, while 5 different types of tzaangor exist, so hopefully they soon get varieties of slaangor, khorngor, and pestigor

Took me a few hours, but here he is. My list of fuckups are as such:

-Blotchy paint in some areas
-Wrong colour used for edge highlights (white instead of grey, BONEHEAD MOVE)
-Overspray+outdoor temp caused some thick paint

What else did I butcher? I invite constructive criticism from yall paint chads

They actually look quite nice with silver instead of the gold

I think Gold is way too lavish.

Silver is a nice muted metal colour if you're going for anything metallic.

I know they aren't really designed to be anything but gold, but silver eternals would look great.

There are some grey stormcast eternal in lore i think

Atm the nid codex feels really.. stale

Like, theres good codices, strong codices, bad codices, and weak codices

Nids r both bad and weak

Like cults are good and weak

Good as in fun

yeah gsc needs some loving too and IG will give a preview of what thatll look like probably

Very excited for that new teased cult unit

Hopefully some sort of demoman

He had a detonator so

#

I'd love a genesect char all abt explosives

#

That abd

#

Crackhead idea but I hope they allow acolytes to swap their grenades for demo charges

#

I would also like a way to give out more warlord traits beyond broodcoven

#

So like aspiring pupil or such

#

OR the ability to mix and match broodcoven

#

Rather than it being magus/primus always

#

Either that or the primus just not sucking lul

tiny cairn
elfin yew
#

God lmao yeah

#

You can already do it with their base grenaded but demo charges are so memey on atalans

#

Would I drop 200pts just to give a unit of 20 acolytes demo charges? Absolutely

tiny cairn
#

do they get the "throw 10 grenades" stratagem?

#

that IG has

sour hill
#

@elfin yew would be great to see some new nid models in any form

elfin yew
#

They do Chicago yee

#

Extra Explosives

#

And yes new/updated nid models would be good

#

Extra explosives is amazing

#

Usually what you do is

#

Have a unit of atalans with 10 demo charges, one for each of them

tiny cairn
#

knight knight nerd

elfin yew
#

Then you lying in wait them for 3" deepstrike and drop all 10 on something big

#

Then, if you have them in a rusted claw detachment, and whatever they hit isn't dead/something else is dangerous nearby, you can Drive-by explosives them to skirt away

#

It's pretty fucking devious

#

The 3" deepstrike makes it really hard to screen for

tiny cairn
#

6" on the nades too

elfin yew
#

Yeeep

#

That's why you need lying in wait, or to just move normally

#

Problem is that even with rusted claw you can't advance then throw grenades

#

So u gotta use some trick like that

#

+I prefer to make sure none of them die early on, so I don't lose the 10 pts attached to the model

yeah, I feel the same way when I run lootas or tankbustas

I still really enjoy the Ultras.

People flame them for being popular but they're dope.

And the whole Roman theme is great

Honestly if their like roman theme showed more itd be good

#

You dont see it too clearly except w like

#

Cato and the big lads

hoary ermine
#

They flame them for the popularity and preformance aspect

#

The man who wrote it all got death threats over a wrongly understood situation.

#

Tldr; he had to write a codex per legion, starting with ultramarines.
He got told about 3/4th through his time that it would be the codex; space marines. Instead.

Now write in every other legion. Do it.

Yeah its pretty bad

Esp compared to the free alternative

Idk what GW was thinkint when they released and maintain a near nonfunctional app when they know battlescribe exists

bold copper
#

The sad thing is I want it to succeed, but it is just awful

hasty sorrel
#

it worked last i used it but i think tis really heavy on the network side and some networks dont like the bandwidth draw

And the AOS app is probably going to be just as bad

elfin yew

Theres a free list builder for AoS thats okay. But battlescribe also supports aos so

edgy cipher

It now has a real devs but when it began ... yeah

dusk hill

yeah idek what the app is meant to do over battlescribe

edgy cipher

It was supposed to be more fluid

In the end you cannot even duplicate units

So lets say you took 10 minutes to kit your 30 beast gaunt squad, well you gotta do it 3 more times now.

I was helping elf learn admech and holy shit their keywords

#

Are so weird

Ye

elfin yew

Spin the wheel of what buffs apply to who and when

edgy cipher
#

They are a bit random but strong and funny

elfin yew
#

Also Mars being so insanely better than other forgeworlds

edgy cipher
#

Belisarius Cawl getting the cool stuff

green cave
#

What is this "wheel of buffs" you are talking?

elfin yew
#

Pretty much admech have really strange keywords. Like Admech core is only a few units

#

Whereas Skitarii tags are probs the majority of the roster

#

Plus you have stuff like

#

'Tag' buffs ontop of auras

#

Also kataphrons are bikers???? Wild

#

Also like

#

Kastelans only become core within 3" of a datatech

#

Which is.. a lil weird. Like do they lose buffs already put on them if they walk away

green cave
#

That make sense, kastelan need constant control from datasmith (iirc their name), the kataphrons being bikes is weird though... I think that the keyword corundrum is because in 7th ed they were kinda separate from the cult mechanicus armies, and while probably GW is trying to merge them in one something left over is still there

#

Like, in lore the kastelan always repeat the last given order, so if you tell them attack someone they will keep shooting that target even when the target is dead...

elfin yew
#

Yee it makes sense and is fluffy. Its just a lil odd ruleswise

green cave
#

I would have said that the mechanicus bikers would have been the dragoons and the ballistarii

#

Kathapron would make sense as beefy bois

#

Slow, can take a beat and also punch hard

#

But only if lead by a high rank "officer", they are servitors after all

Wanna start a plate armor talk tho?

Guess thats a no 😔

hoary ermine

what would you guys say

#

Type a

#

or type b

lapis tundra
#

Not an expert on segmentata, second one looks more plausible tho

#

Or well it probably would if you would actually close it

green cave
#

Oh oh, that is something for me

#

Since the differences between the type a and type b are very small i would say type a, as it has leather straps that kep the upper part together with the lower part, and leather straps are easier to replace than metal rings

#

And btw Elyksis, those two seems to be both type a

lapis tundra
#

Fair

#

I just went with the second one, first one look really cheap to me

#

Thats probably just lighting tho

This is a type b

theyre sold variants

Skitarii armor is based on segmentata

might as well get one for my kit

#

ill have to fucking defile it and spraypaint it red tho MaulWheeze

#

Theres very good red metal paints here

#

like, entire stocked rows of metal paints in spraycans

#

steel, messing and leather are the materials of the segmentata, perfect

#

that means i can just tape down the messing and leather, steelbrush the entire armor and then pog it up with 3 red rattlecans
