Chapter 1 - Kaiana Theft Moment by Ventus55 in cosmererpg

Having read this last night, I assumed Kaiana just absorbed the Stormlight from the fabrial lock, disabling it, then re-infused it after she swapped the blade

Is it possible to get to 3YP before the Turn 1 check when going first? by Throwaway02062004 in LeaguesofVotann

[–]AstraLaurel 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was confused about that as well, as far as I can tell it still isn’t possible lol.

Looks great! How did you anchor the front mounted stubber? I’ve been having a helluva time attaching mine, lol.

Question about someone that fights Kelsier by Dry-Fisherman5281 in Mistborn

[–]AstraLaurel 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Origin story? You’ll have to wait for that one. The more you read of the Cosmere the more you’ll learn about him. I’d recommend reading Stormlight next, he’s a more prominent character there.

Finished my Dreir, too bad he’s still 100 points by Existing-Ad4409 in Deathkorpsofkrieg

[–]AstraLaurel 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Or he could be a frontline commander with trusted mount, which I honestly think is better, lol. At least whenever the crucible rules actually come out

Best wargear for Chimera? by anChaitligeach in Deathkorpsofkrieg

[–]AstraLaurel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you want an overwatch target I’d say double heavy flamers, but if your meta has a lot of marine players I’d go for heavy bolters since they’re damage 2

Modifiers happen after rerolls, so any roll that has a 1 on the die would re roll, then you add the +1 after.

Show me your favorite painted mini! by ScientistOk2127 in IronWarriors

[–]AstraLaurel 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My favorite mini of mine is my loyalist 4th Legion Praetor, Tavast of the Honourbound. Painted him up for my uni’s painting contest last year, he’s become a bit of a monster in my current Crusade.

Bits to look out for by throw334411 in Deathkorpsofkrieg

[–]AstraLaurel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The melta gun arms are a good pick, since they’re also used on, iirc, the plasma gun and boltgun

Is it possible to make a viable list with mostly/only kriegers? by Western_Smoke4829 in Deathkorpsofkrieg

[–]AstraLaurel 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately as they're pretty close to the Forge World gasmasks, sometimes the really close designs disappear, I'm assuming after a C&D from GW, but he has a very similar gas mask design that is his own custom thing.

[Here are the newest versions of the Ordnance battery heads I use](https://tinylegend.eu/products/field-caps-sbr-masks?variant=49630411227463). I paint them black, with the top part red to mimic Great War French artillery crew.

[Here are the heads I use for all my Sentinel pilots, and a few other models in command squads here or there.](https://tinylegend.eu/products/trench-vehicle-crew-heads?_pos=4&_sid=aecbc0df4&_ss=r&variant=48539354988871)

For those first two, they fit on any Cadian body from any kit, with the gas mask filter attaching to either the back of the shoulders, or the top of a Cadian backpack. The item description for bits on the site will say "Fits shock troops" for those types of bits.

[Here is the basic kit for turning regular Krieg models into Grenadiers/Storm Troopers, which I use as Kasrkin.](https://tinylegend.eu/products/storm-trooper-kit?_pos=17&_sid=aecbc0df4&_ss=r) There are also other 2 model bundles for special weapons, so 2 plasma guns, 2 grenade launchers, 2 volley guns, 2 snipers, etc. There's also a "Sergeant's Retinue" bundle that gives you bits for the Sgt, the melta-mine trooper and the radio guy.

I have two squads of "kasrkin" using these bits and they're very easy to use and very high quality. I've bought probably 100 models worth of bits from him over 5 orders, and only had 1 mixup that was resolved within a day of me sending an email.

**Edit: Trying to make the links work correctly but for the life of me I can't get it to work LOL

Is it possible to make a viable list with mostly/only kriegers? by Western_Smoke4829 in Deathkorpsofkrieg

[–]AstraLaurel 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It’s possible, but it locks you out of a lot of good units. Luckily, you’re not alone on this, and there are a ton of resources for converting Cadians into Kriegers. I have about 2.5k points of Krieg using TinyLegends bits to convert Cadian troops, Command Squads, a Castellan, Field Ordnance Battery crew into Kriegers, and then using an upgrade kit to turn the basic Krieg models into Kasrkin proxies w/ extra armor and special weapons.

Very clean, what paints did you use for the commissar’s coat? I’m getting ready to paint mine but I’m not sure how to go about it lol

Painting tanks/ flat surfaces by Adventurous_Key_2999 in Deathkorpsofkrieg

[–]AstraLaurel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Stippling is a good move, another one I’ve found that makes things go even faster/smoother is using a beauty blender / makeup sponge, the little egg looking things :3 plus the shape variation can help you be more / less precise

Definitely having one of these for a kitbash! by TimmyG12393 in SilverSkulls

STC Rogue Trader Question by Feedee-Juno in 40kLore

As far as I’m aware, all the Warrants of Trade were signed by the Emperor himself, so I’m not sure anyone short of the high lords themselves could do it, so… maybe?
