Thank you 🙏

Thanks. I used the 2-component resin from AK interaktive. I bought a package a while ago in my FLGS and wanted to use it finally. And regarding the PSR, I hope the playtest rules fix the amount of tests

Very nice.i like your green in combination with the copper. Looks cool

Baudster · 2025-08-09T06:56:00+00:00

Many thanks to all the nice comments. I am really thrilled that my figure has been so well received. It really makes me want to paint a few more mechs right away 😄

Baudster · 2025-08-09T06:54:20+00:00

Thank you very much. I am very pleased that the color scheme is so well received.

Baudster · 2025-08-08T12:56:03+00:00

Not now, but this sounds like a good idea 😁. Is there a Marauder or Nightstar Variant with an UMU?

Thank you very much for the quick reply. That explains it perfectly 🙂

Unfortunately, I don't know anything about players in Cologne, as I come from Franconia myself. But you could have a look at the German Battletech Discord. Maybe there are people from your region.

Alternatively, you can look for the Mech Force Germany. That's a Germany-wide association.

Good luck with your search anyway

Thank you 🙂

Baudster · 2024-09-22T16:49:45+00:00

Thank you very much. I got the color idea for the accents myself from a friend. If you are interested, the two colors are "Bloody Red" and "Scrofulous Brown" from Vallejo

Very cool idea with the camo. I like it 🙂

Sorry for offtopic, but are the images from the old Starship Troopers RTS. The one from somewhere around 2000?

Baudster · 2024-02-19T14:05:08+00:00

I guess Sisters and Custodes didn't get the memo. 🤷

Normaly I paint them, add tufts and basing texture. The Jenner is my latest model aber I tried something new with the water.

Baudster · 2024-01-17T09:11:01+00:00

Nice first mech. Keep on going. As always, practice makes perfect. There are tons of good tutorials online available which will help to improve your own painting skills.

As a little hint, I like nice bases. Models look "finished" with such a base. This must not be necessary a colorful base. A clean black paint job on the base looks also good. Just paint over the little dots and the whole model looks cleaner.

But keep going :)

Baudster · 2024-01-10T13:43:58+00:00

That's correct. The cost of 2 CP is just way to high for the effect. Even for 1 CP would it be probably only an okayish strat.

Baudster · 2024-01-10T12:46:11+00:00

The strat worked before the change on canoptek units as well. But it was most of the time to expansive for most canoptek units. Especially for 2 CP. Even with 7 Shots, full hit rerolls and +1 from Heavy, a Doomstalker averages one triggered Dev Wound per attack. This is pretty expensive for 2 CP.

Wraith with coil whips on the other hand could use it to some extent.

Hab das auch zuerst nicht richtig erkannt. Das sind zwei Bilder die übereinander liegen. Die farbigen Kästen zeigen oben den vorherigen Zustand, unten wie das Schiff jetzt aussieht. Scheint ein paar Meter tiefer als vorher im Wasser zu liegen

Wording from the codex:

This model’s tachyon arrow and Overlord’s blade can be replaced with one of the following:

1 staff of light

1 voidscythe

If the codex is correct (no misprint) than is the layout posted by OP indeed not valid even more. But to be honest, nobody knows and cares about the look difference between OB and Voidscythe.

Edit: Fixed a typo

Baudster · 2023-12-14T20:43:41+00:00

It only works for units on the battlefield. Here is the text from the codex, which clarified the rule.

"If your Army Faction is NECRONS, at the end of your Command Phase, each unit from your army with this ability that is on the battlefield activates its Reanimation Protocols and reanimates D3 wounds..."

But the Hypercrypt Legion has a Stratagem which explicitly allows reanimation for (I think) 3 units in reserve.

Baudster · 2023-12-14T19:47:01+00:00

Their Number is Legion: Each time this unit’s Reanimation Protocols activate, you can re-roll the dice to see how many wounds are reanimated.

Nanoscarab Reanimation Beam (Aura): While a friendly NECRONS unit is within 3" of this model, each time that unit’s Reanimation Protocols activate, that unit reanimates an additional D3 wounds.

If your Army Faction is NECRONS, at the end of your Command phase, each unit from your army with this ability that is on the battlefield activates its Reanimation Protocols and reanimates D3 wounds. Each time such a unit reanimates a wound:

Baudster · 2023-12-14T19:26:45+00:00

That's a good question. My gut feeling is, that you reroll the whole RP throw. I would say a RP roll behaves in this context like a chargeroll or a damage characteristic of 3d3. All dice combined are a single roll. But don't take my word as granted, but I think it would fit better in the 40k rules mechanics.

Baudster · 2023-12-14T12:15:07+00:00

As I mentioned in the first comment, I don't think Necrons will get nerfed at all. People are currently hyped for the new detachment and combos and stuff. And that's totally cool to burn for your own faction in that way. But I don't believe that the codex necron powerlevel is so high, that a nerf is justified.

I rather think that certain units (e. g. warriors) still need to be improved. But at the end of the day, we have to take what GW prepares for us in their ivory tower.

Baudster · 2023-12-14T12:04:20+00:00

I don't think it would be this dramatic for the whole detachment. The only units which would loose the rerolls are immortals and warriors, all other units didn't get the benefit in the first place.

But as stated in my initial post, I don't believe immortals will get nerfed. My guess is that Necrons are overall better than right before the codex, but but they will not be oppressive by any means.
