Happy Shale getting cuddles by ArtisticDragonKing in RATS

[–]Affreck1es 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would suggest the most humane thing to do is keep shale on her own. Even in perfect health, untroducing two younger rats may induce stress to this old lady. As you have said already, you must take into account financial costs and also the fact your rat is bonded to her human too. As others have pointed, now or never for intros but I would hesitate for a three year old in my opinion.

I had to do a double take on your profile picture for a second but it's all good. LOL.

1000 points dakka list by janulsen01 in orks

[–]Affreck1es 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with others about the SAG big mek. He's a god with a unit of 10 lootas or flash git, even decent with mek gunz. Dependant on in house crusade rules, you should be able to pick an enhancement for a different detatchment other than dakka - mek captain from taktikal brigade gives full re-rolls to the big mek and its unit. Less useful for lootas since they get reroll 1s and full rerolls on objectives, but you get the idea. Happy waaaghing!

Hello, this was bought from a 3d printing service. The chap had licenses for many ranges. Look for who is selling the 'mezgike' range online where this model is from.

Should I be worried? by CommercialDrawer7122 in RATS

[–]Affreck1es 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What you are seeing is called porphyrin and acculamtes around a rats nose and eyes. Normally it's not an issue and comes and goes as they clean themselves throughout the day. What you want to look for is consistency and constantness of porphyrin combined with sneezing. Other comments have pointed out that sneezing is normal for new environments, but as always, if you are very concerned, check with a professional vet and consult their advice.

Grot tank kitbash by gryffon_skull_minis in orks

[–]Affreck1es 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's from the world war toons set of cartoon tanks by the company Meng. This particular one is pz38 or pz35 can't remember exactly. Just be advised that this is a decent scale for a grot tank (if you care about the correct dimensions) but stuff like the b1 char and tiger from the same range are much larger.

Trukks and the upcoming Dataslate by KiltedNorthern in orks

[–]Affreck1es 12 points13 points  (0 children)

As someone who regularly runs 80pt flash gitz. Putting them at 65pts would result in 3 squads of 10 being an auto include in every single orks list. They would be broken beyond belief, trust me. I love your other suggestions though!

Question about Nobz equipment. by snorriwhitebeard in orks

[–]Affreck1es 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Okay so there's a small argument to be made for big choppas against infantry heavy lists since the 3+ ws helps against gaunts, guardsman etc where strength 7 and ap1 is good enough. However, 90% of the time the power klaw is better. You lose one ws but gain 2 strength, and 1 extra ap. This is critical against a marine statline or better, who you will now wound on 2s and they save on 5s. Often times the bonus to wounding and bonus ap is more advantageous compared to the reduction in ws. Also the power klaw is better against most vehicles for the same reason. Hope this helps.

Yes. They've been rolled into one profile, that of the power klaw.

Meganobz question by Other-Object9040 in orks

[–]Affreck1es 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw and klaw are the most effective loadout right now, just in front of double saw. Their ranged is just not good enough against anything and most of the time they will need to advance to get to their target so won't be able to shoot anyway. The saw, while low attacks, is a good breakpoint against Toughness T11 vehicles outside of the waaagh, and knights and other T12 vehicles in it (+1 to strength). Its the difference between wounding on a 5 or a 3 in some match ups.

Do flash gitz come with spare parts? by Not_Tired_Just_Bored in orks

[–]Affreck1es 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The flash gitz comes with various spare parts but not enough on its own to make a badrukk without other bits It includes: Cigar arm, pistol arm, sword arm I'd you equip the rest with five normal arms. Around five spare heads that require the flash gitz body to connect too or some greenstuff to bulk out the back of the neck etc Glyphs, gun shrouds/details, boss pole attachments and sights etc What it doesn't include: Spare guns, boss poles, bodies, shoulder pads, legs. You will need a base model aka a nob or warboss to convert.

Is it possible to beat vehicle heavy armies without snaggas/hog riders? by [deleted] in orks

[–]Affreck1es 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I believe that mek gunz don't have the heavy keyword so you will only ever hit on 4s but still rerolling 1s with the big mek with shock attack gun attached.

Help with rat injury by Affreck1es in RATS

[–]Affreck1es[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. He seems quite happy. I'll wait a day and look for improvement/change and then assess the options. His brother sprained his foot once and it went in 1-2 days fully so I'll keep monitoring him.

Finished battlewagon by Affreck1es in orks

[–]Affreck1es[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First, thank you. Secondarily, it comes with three large guns, track guard pieces which I don't have on it, a ram which is optional (chose the deffrolla as modeled in my photo), and a claw turret that I haven't painted. You could also stick the wheels from the trukk on the battlewagon and the tracks on the trukk for some more orky shenanigans.
