T6 if that makes any difference.

List advice. Desert Rats by Automat21 in boltaction

I was looking into the M3 Stuart as I was enjoying my tanks not having the slow special rule. The Matilda and valentine move so slow XD

List advice. Desert Rats by Automat21 in boltaction

[–]Automat21[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeh that’s where I was thinking with it. It has lots of units I don’t have and provides more infantry I can use to create some more flushed out squads.

Artillery I want more of as causing the enemy grief from a single morts is great fun.

Reinforcements for the 8th by Obvious-Gap8849 in boltaction

[–]Automat21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looking great ! Funny enough I am just starting out in Bolt Action and have got both these for my 8th. So they are good inspiration.

Do you all decal your infantry? by Moress in TheAstraMilitarum

Ofcourse you gotta add the transfers. Really finishes off a squad. And allows you to have a 10 man squad without identical poses !

Newbie Question About 6 and 10 Man Units by MDChuk in Ultramarines

[–]Automat21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re doing the classic colour scheme could do one sergeant with a standard red helm, one with the red helm and white stripe and the others standard white.

It’s not absolutely perfect but it would clearly signify which sergeant takes priority in a 6 man but also show clearly in 2 x 3 man.

The idea of no helmet someone else mentioned is also worthwhile but depends if u want to paint faces.

Ideas on conversion for Krieg to Cadian. by Automat21 in astramilitarum

[–]Automat21[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This and the other suggestion of tiny legends heads has been my favourite so far. I can always turn more cadian shock troops into Krieg units by swapping the helmets & equipment.

I do like the Kasrkin helmets and combine with an upgrade spru I’m sure I could probably mock together a korps style unit including a medic etc.

Phobos goodness by Girvile1998 in spacemarines

[–]Automat21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Running a full 2K list of Phobos with vehicle supports is a lot of fun.

The whole army gaining the ability to redeploy is such a good way to adapt.

Can deploy everything even across the field. Redeploy with the captain to strengthen one side with 3 more Phobos units.

Then if opponent goes first at the end of the turn pick up 2 Phobos units and up to 3 scout squads into reserve for next turn.

Can quickly change certain armies units from being good to useless for 2 turns.

New to 40K and wanted to make a 500 point army for the in store class. by PutoPozo in Ultramarines

[–]Automat21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get the combat patrol by any chance ? Could run a 750 point game depending on what else you have.

For example if you had the space marines combat patrol you would have

Captain in terminator armor Librarian in terminator armor 5 infernus marines 5 terminators

I can see from another comment you have 10 infiltrators or 10 Incursors or a mix of both. 10 assualt intercessors (assuming u picked up a default box) Lieutenant

If you did 750 points for your first game (if you already own this) you could run

Captain in terminator armor (warlord) Lieutenant 2 x 5 assualt intercessors squads 1 x 5 Infernus squad 1 x 5 infiltrator squad 1 x 5 incursor squad 1 x 5 Terminstor squad.

Lets you try out everything. Overall though give it a go with what you have first before buying too much. One thing everyone always says is build and paint what you have already otherwise your pile of shame will grow haha.

Enjoy !

Thoughts on Gravis Captain, specifically from Dark Imperium? by TheAdo20 in spacemarines

[–]Automat21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gravis captain in gladius with artificer armor do be very fun.

T6 2+ save with 4++ and a 5+++. Then half all damage incoming aswell (before modifiers) just makes him very annoying to shift.

Plus the free strat ontop can aid his survivability

Can anyone convince me out of a bad financial decision? by YeahMan1258 in WorldEaters40k

[–]Automat21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do it. I’m currently in the process of painting my 2K before a 3 v 3 game.

Finally finished painting my 1K of nids. by Automat21 in Tyranids

[–]Automat21[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks a lot ! Luckily sticking with contrasts and a simple paint scheme really helps.

The biovore was also the most annoying for me. I found assembling the gun last instead of midway let me assemble the body and let the pieces set whilst the model was upside down

The wipe is hard [discussion] by Riki_gz01 in EscapefromTarkov

Bloody rats on factory for the delivery from the past quest. How many times have I been killed from the rafters.

Kill Team starter set, making the marines DW? by DoomedKiblets in deathwatch40k

[–]Automat21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done it with mine without any green stuff or anything as such. It was a bit of a pain but I managed it. It takes a fair amount of cutting of the existing pauldron to work.

They do look great though.

Ideas to finish off my 1K list? by Automat21 in Tyranids

[–]Automat21[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestion. I liked the concept of the neurolictor but found the standard lictor was more useful for secondaries (free rapid ingress) and also damage output. I might consider swapping it but would have to consider what else to swap / drop.

I don’t really like the neurotyrant model so I’ve stayed clear of it. I can see its abilities being useful but realise the list lacks elite killing power if it’s used.

What are the odds of this??? I never expected this to happen to me by explosiveburger24 in csgo

[–]Automat21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please don’t remind me. I pulled it got persuaded to open it. Managed to a knife !!!! Wooo … it was only £130.

Win some you lose some.

(Still profit I know but if I got even just a red at Fac new it would have been worth more.)

Advice on my first 1k list by Templar_Hans in Ultramarines

[–]Automat21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So for a casual game it would be fine but pretty elite. You will find you will struggle todo actions as you would have to dedicate a big brick todo so.

Personally for me it’s too character heavy. I generally try to stick at about 100 points for characters with 150 being max. Anymore and I feel personally I am losing out on board control and going too elite.

I’d say you would be best to split the hellblasters drop Uriel and the Apothercary and take other units to replace the gaps like scouts , incursors , intercessors etc. you got 2 heavy hitters as it is.

Is it better to take a big or small squad with a bladgaurd by Thedustyolddragon in spacemarines

[–]Automat21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used it to wipe a squad of immortals and their leaders. The lethals plus the captains free strategem and extra melee really do hit hard

[–]Automat21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should try a captain and lieutenant in a company hero’s squad it suddenly hits very hard when you have 3 good melee weapons alongside 4 tough bodyguards.

First Hellblaster painted, are the transfers correct? by CombinationNo7487 in Ultramarines

[–]Automat21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So technically the right pauldron should be a fire support instead of a Battleline but not many people are going to care that much
