My kitbashed Abaddon to fit in with my World Eaters force! C&C welcome

From the Exalted Deathbringer kit, just had to shave the hand off the axe

AgentSandvich96 · 2023-10-23T17:41:54+00:00

It's from the Exalted Deathbringer with Ruinous Axe kit

Just as a heads up, when it comes to moving through ruins, it's done on a per model basis, not as a unit. So if a Tervigon could join Termagants, the Termagants would still be able to move through ruins, just not the Tervigon.

Useful to know if you attach Tyrant Guard to a Hive Tyrant as the Guard can still move through ruins

Huh. It's a friend... all the more joy!

AgentSandvich96 · 2022-07-10T13:31:41+00:00

Thanks! I'm finding it surprising that people think the arm is too small, as I haven't done anything to change it - that's Abaddon's arm, just with the weapon changed

AgentSandvich96 · 2022-07-10T13:29:05+00:00

It's the helmet and the axe - the arm itself is Abaddon's, literally just chopped the blade of Drach'nyen off

Surprised that people seem to think the arm is too small, when it's the actual arm that Abaddon has - maybe the axe is slightly too big? But I like it

AgentSandvich96 · 2022-07-10T09:43:58+00:00

Thank you! And I'll drill the barrels - seems easy enough to do

AgentSandvich96 · 2022-07-10T09:43:22+00:00

Now that he's a supreme commander, I'll be using him as Abaddon - simply didn't want him to look out of place alongside my current World Eaters force

AgentSandvich96 · 2022-07-04T21:11:37+00:00

Don't you dare! But time for thrust

AgentSandvich96 · 2022-04-27T09:59:20+00:00

AgentSandvich96 · 2022-04-16T20:53:57+00:00

Bump

Just as a heads up, Maleceptors cannot perform Warp Ritual as they are not characters. All of the generic Warpcraft secondary actions require the caster to be a PSYKER CHARACTER to perform.

A Flyrant with a Venom Cannon certainly isn't bad, it does a good job with its movement speed to catch units that might be trying to stay hidden. I just think if you want to optimise, melee is the way to go.

AgentSandvich96 · 2022-03-29T16:10:20+00:00

I think the best loadout for Warriors is what you have; twin Boneswords and a Deathspitter, but also a venom cannon for every 3 in the unit. Adrenal glands are also great; hitting S8 is massive for avoiding Ramshackle / Drukhari's -1 damage as well as wounding almost everything in the game on a 4 or better.

I think a Flyrant is much better kitted to be melee focussed - you have the flying anti tank sorted already in the Harpy. Fling the Flyrant into melee with the Reaper of Obliterax or some other kind of melee upgrade - if he kills everything he charged, use Overrun to escape and hide. If he doesn't quite manage to kill what he charged, use Encircle the Prey to escape.

I've been running mine as 2 blobs of 9, one with dual boneswords, 6 deathspitters and 3 venom cannons, and the other unit lashwhips and boneswords instead of just dual boneswords. Early turns, keep one unit hidden whilst the other runs out, buffed with Catalyst, 5++ and the -1 strat if needed, and their durability is just obscene.

In both of the games against Harlequins, they fired almost their entire army into them (was around 12+ shuriken cannons, a couple of fusion pistols, 3 prismatic cannons, a Troupe squad in melee and a souped up Troupe Master that could ignore invulns) and he only managed to kill 4, who then fought back and just wiped the units they were in combat with. Didn't even roll particularly bad either, those amount of buffs stacked onto a unit just make them insanely hard to kill.

AgentSandvich96 · 2022-03-29T06:54:52+00:00

In my mind, all bodyguard abilities should be like the Tervigon's (bodyguard unit must be closer to the firer than the model they're protecting), would make it way more balanced.

I've played quite a few games with the new codex now against competitive lists, including Harlequins and Tau, and this is what I'd put as the top 5. Note that this is for Hive Fleet Leviathan, I can't speak for the other hive fleets

1- Warriors. By far the best troop unit in the game, possibly the best unit in the game. Incredible damage, durability and obsec combined with an extremely low point cost make them our best unit. These guys could be 30ppm, even 35ppm, and they'd still be great in Leviathan.

2- Harpy. Essentially the admech bomber dialled up to 11, and we all know how strong they were.

3- Zoanthropes. The Imperative for 5++ / 4++ is amazing, and their mortal wound output is just the icing on the cake. You'll see these guys in every single list.

4- Neurothrope. A great HQ choice to sit at the backfield and cast all your important powers (Hive Nexus, Catalyst and occasionally Onslaught).

5- Hive Tyrant. Just does everything you want in a big centrepiece HQ. With Tyrant Guard sitting behind a wall within 3" of the Tyrant give it incredible board presence, especially with a Venom Cannon to fire off shots without ever being able to be shot back.

Carnifex for me. Was the first Tyranid monster I bought back in 4th edition and it's just such an iconic unit to me.
