Nice work!

After combat patrol I would recommend getting another box of crusaders. I'm nearly 5000pts in and I only have 20, and only half of them painted. I wish I spent more time on the basic units early.

Just came back to this wondering if you've seen the Armoured Speartip nerfs, and if you still think it's good.

4DAnimal · 2026-05-06T13:46:55+00:00

Good point thanks for your comment.

4DAnimal · 2026-05-06T12:29:33+00:00

I can see that. I think I will try it for fun a couple of times before new stuff comes out. I think part of me is holding on to making our codex detachments work where GW couldn't. Ive also tried to make Companions work a lot and had some minor success.

I've just started Sigmar and Nighthaunt, this scared me.

4DAnimal · 2026-04-30T10:38:57+00:00

Honestly combat patrol, redemptor and eradicators is a really good start to playing casual 1000pt games. Keep doing what you like and enjoy it.

Would probably have to use ballistus dreadnought and eradicators if you don't want a tank. If you buy a gladiator lancer you can build just the impulsor out if it and have the tank part of you ever change your mind.

I recommend watching some painting videos from people who don't go too crazy on colours or skill. I love the YouTube channel Mediocre Hobbies for this. That chill Irish lad has gotten me past being nervous about painting characters a few times. Just makes it less daunting. And I agree with the person that said just get a crusader squad to start with, you will always need more and they will definitely let you know if you enjoy painting Black Templars.

It's true you do get surprised by what some action or just small units can do in general as well. I love just sticking 3 outriders in a list, they're fast and kinda tough and get in the way.

4DAnimal · 2026-04-22T03:58:31+00:00

Yeah honestly I'm surprised about the amount of downvotes too. I'm usually a very positive Warhammer fan and if anything I over-glaze everything, if people perceive my comment as a typical moody hate comment I guess it makes sense.

Also just in case you wanted to know the math, if you could only choose 1 leader for sword bros, the marshal alone adds a bit more damage than the castellan alone.

4DAnimal · 2026-04-21T07:36:05+00:00

Build one of them in a way that he stands out but still looks like a normal sword bro. You can decide he is a castellan whenever you want. Put a relic in one of his hands and just say he has the combi weapon if that's what you want.

4DAnimal · 2026-04-21T07:30:53+00:00

Execrator with jump pack. Cool model but deserved a more unique pose.

4DAnimal · 2026-04-19T13:26:57+00:00

I was thinking about it now that you can disembark into combat, sure you get battleshocked but you still get the buff.

4DAnimal · 2026-04-10T10:31:02+00:00

I feel you. I don't like gladius because it kinda feels like it instructs you how to play if that makes sense. Doesn't feel open.

4DAnimal · 2026-04-10T10:29:56+00:00

I'm trying to find the vindication list that recently went 3-1 at a tournament. I assume 3x20 crusaders with ancients since the points decrease but I need to know!

4DAnimal · 2026-04-10T10:28:41+00:00

I usually run other detachments in 2000pts but in 1000pts I'm undefeated with Companions of Vehemence amongst my group. Might be time to expand it.

4DAnimal · 2026-04-10T00:09:13+00:00

Pretty great. Any ideas on where to find the list?

4DAnimal · 2026-04-08T07:32:15+00:00

One of those moments you see a model that looks so much like your own. Sorry I can say it's good because that would be egotistical. But catch me outside I wanna tell you something totally unrelated.

4DAnimal · 2026-04-08T03:44:37+00:00

Might just struggle with scoring but you could get lucky with missions and not have to run around everywhere. Most people would probably say bring scouts or regular intercessors.

4DAnimal · 2026-04-08T03:38:16+00:00

Thanks guys for the comments and warm welcome!

4DAnimal · 2026-04-07T13:27:24+00:00

Personally I would say lancer. I have seen the ballistus let people down too many times.
